HALF LIFE 2 question (not a crack request)

[Joe Forster/STA]

Hey FarCry,

Isn't Orca able to do _any_ manipulation on MSI packages? Sorry, dunno myself, I haven't used it extensively (yet?)...

no with orca you can only manipulate the databases in th msi package. you cannot replace files within. i have to create a new msi package using the databases exported from the steam.msi in order to be everything identical. i have downloaded a lot of msi which produce, alter msi. i will give them a try. i thought of altering the hl2.msi package in order to put an extra option to install half life 2 deathmatch. i dont know if this is possible. last option if i cant do that is to put it in a separate folder and copy paste manually into SteamApps folder

YESSSSSSSSSSS. i managed to do it finally. who cares about orc? the best prog is qwerty. i added a new component for half life 2 deathmatch an now from the hl2.msi file i can install it. . no i will do the same with steam as i have already extracted the files in the package and replaced them with the new ones.
