Where exactly does it say it's a screensaver?

ok , i dled from the official site, then i open in winzip classic, (did the same thing in wizard) all the files popped up when i clicked on SF and then i click extract, hgmm mmaybe i dont know wehre to extract to, ok now it doestn say it but i still dont know how to install, i extracted to the SF folder in STeam and such but i dont know what button to press to start installation

PS i hate Winzip

i have a hunch you may have downloaded the source code instead of the installation file. *shrug* maybe.

i, too, hate winzip. go get "winRAR" or "7-zip", i prefer those.

as for your installation problems, tell us please where exactly you've downloaded from. Which mirror and, if possible, an exact URL. Assuming it's a good release, ensure you're extracting the zipped "sourceforts" folder to the right place. on my computer, for example, when I'm done installing, it's at "C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\sourceforts". on some newer installations, the default is something more like "C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\sourceforts ". In either case, the key is to find your SourceMods folder and install within it.

Good luck, let us know how it goes!

ok this web support is awesome guys, but i still not doin good. I know im prolly leaving out a bigstep but here's info
-downloaded from front page at mirror- Garry.tv
- i saved to sour

ok im a complete moron by the way..... sry to waste ure time, while writing this i removed an extra folder and extracted correctly. havent played yet but by the looks of it and dedication of staff and community im sure it will be fun. I'll stay in touch- Names gona be Ryos

Thanks so much

Delete any attempt you have made to install SourceForts and try using http://icr.seascape.uk.net/sourcefor...sInstaller.exe (note XP style support is not included currently due to incompatability with non-XP systems, so it may look ugly at times)
That should install it all perfectly for you. Once it's done, run it from the Steam Play Games menu, it should be under Third Party Games.

welcome to sourceforts, enjoy gaming.

i know what hes talking about...

if it says you are installing screensavers, right click on the zip file, and click on winzip with the little icon next to it...

then click on extract here, it will extract it to the desktop if that is where u right clicked it at

then drag the folder into your sourcemods folder and your done!
