The ONLY Half-Life 2 Thread. Do Not Create New Threads
 

Valve removed the CD-Check, so my NOCD is no longer needed.

The Link is dead. :(


EDIT:
Ok now it works. It think my Inet connect had problems..

EDIT #2:

When I start the hijack_hl2.exe then steam starts. there i choose play HL2.
Then steam gives me the error:

Steam - Error

The Game is currently unavaliable.
Please try again at an other time.

What can i do?

--Ano

Check the hl2.exe you installed, it should be 86 088 bytes and sit where steam.exe is installed. Then check that it has properly overwritten the file steamapps/<your account>/half life 2/hl2.exe (it should be the exact same file after you started hl2 via hijacked steam).

Try to run hl2.exe without steam. It should complain about a missing dll. If it says anything else, you probably have a corrupted file.

Here's the md5sum of hl2.exe: b00737498dbb7d4ab17c44aec27d50bd

Edit: Try with torrent link above, it's an updated version

No CD file for this game yet>?

Link is dead!
 

Hijack your our only hope! I think a nocd/dvd crack is what most people want, i ahte carrying my dvd everywhere i go. I have bought the game id just like to play it wehrever im at.

Yeah, I feel the same way. I can't make a backup, so I refuse to have to use the DVD as a result. I love GCW because of this. Problem is, it doesn't really matter now since the whole stutter issue is making me not able to even play... ;)

Oh well, looking forward to doing so once the upcoming patch is released!

How do u use hijack HL2?

I haven't tried it yet, but here's what hijack wrote before...

@Hijack: Isn´t there the chance to put your files on yahoo breifcase or something like that?

HiJacks link is down :mad:

Any other mirrors???

Try again, the torrent should now work

BIG THX to you.

You did a great job on this.

One more question:
you wrote in readme.txt that your files work on the steam version.
Well I got the retail one, so does anyone know what about hijack´s files working with this one?

THX so long

It only works with the retail version. It allows you to run the steam version when you bought the retail one. The steam version doesn't contain any cd check.
