2009-05-22 Falcon Friday - Half-Life 2 Ep 1

Hey All, the Half-Life 2 Episode 1 beta is available now.

If you want to give it a try, here is how
Open the Folder C:\Program Files\Steam
Right click on Steam.exe
Click on Create Shortcut
Move the shortcut to your desktop, or wherever you want to access it from
Right click on the steam shortcut, and click Properties
The target should be something like "C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe"
At the end of the target add -beta ep1novint so that the target is
"C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -beta ep1novint
make sure you have completely closed out steam before using the shortcut
When you start Steam, HL2 Ep1 will update. When it is done updating, you can run it, and the Falcon will control the game.

that is 4 of 5 on the Orange Box. only HL2 beta remains, then we can polish them up and get a V1 Gold Master out (and advertise on Steam, which should be a big deal for us)

thanks,
Tomnovint
