When you were installing Obsidian Conflict, did you have all those boxes checked off during the installation at one point? W0rf0x should be able to help you with that.

No, the only box checked was the top one. What should it have been?

Make sure you ran hl2 and source sdk base: orange box at least once.

If that doesnt work: post a screenshot of that error and of your steam games list.

God damnit I knew you'd come up with something obvious like that, I am terrible at giving advice.

Oh, wow. You serious? I didn't know people started playing OC because of that crappy video, but wow. I really want it to start working for you now, I told W0rf0x you're still having this issue.

Well i need the complete error message or i cant help you.
You could try re-downloading oc and installing it again, could have been that a file got corrupted, make sure to select "install client only" and when your running on windows vista or 7, you could also try running the installer as administrator (right click.)
