NOTE => D.I.P.R.I.P. is a HalfLife-2 mod that is available free via Steam, and it
can be downloaded/installed using the Steam GUI interface. As such, it relies on a
pre-existing HalfLife-2 title being present in your Steam installation (bottle),
and thus will not work unless one of the following qualifying titles are already
installed....see;
http://store.steampowered.com/search/?category2=16
D.I.P.R.I.P. did not display any issues when installed via the Steam interface,
however trying to start the game itself, generated an error message which reads;
'CAudioSourceMemWave (xxx): GetDataPointer()' -- if you encounter this problem,
see the tips&tricks page here for a possible work-around.
My qualifying product is Half-Life 2: Episode One.
The installation procedure I used was this simple ;
- Install the Steam client via the cxinstallwizard builtin target (if not already installed)
- Make sure you have one of the qualifying games present in your Steam installation
- Start the Steam client, login and download/install the D.I.P.R.I.P. software
- Launch the game
Gets a silver straight out of the box - first impressions are this will
change to gold after a bit more gameplay/testing...
Cheers!
