DoD:S High Def Update

Oh btw for those of you who do not know how to install it:

NOTE: YOU CANNOT HAVE DOD:S RUNNING WHEN YOU INSTALL THIS, IT WILL NOT WORK AND MAY DAMAGE YOUR COMP!!!!!!!

First, you must either get WinZip (ewwwwwwwwwww) or WinRAR (yay!) Since I use WinRAR: linky

Then, download the files and if you have Firefox, just click "Open" on the Downloads window. And if you have IE7/9 or w/e, click the file after it's on your desktop or wherever you downloaded it to... If you installed WinRAR correctly, it should open up the files with WinRAR when you click open.

Then, on the upper-left corner of the WinRAR window, there is a folder that is half-open and has a green diamond and above it it says "Extract", click this after you have clicked and dragged a box around the "materials" and "models" folders

Then go to through the files like so, doubling clicking the folders as you go: Local Drive (C: or w/e) > Program Files > Valve (or Steam, depending on where you installed originally) > Steam (again, it depends where it was installed) > Steamapps > *YOUR STEAM NAME* > Day of Defeat Source > dod.

Now if that doesn't work, then you must individually extract models and materials from the WinRAR window to the respective archives in your Steam directory.

Now, having this extensive knowledge on this subject that I do, I am totally bewildered by the fact that it does not work for me :'(
 
Well, I only know what you know I am afraid. That is the location to install, to overwrite, then to go and play. Works for me and most others it seems. I am sorry that you are unable to get it running, but I just do not know why it would not work for you. :(

Also, I am going to be updating the pictures as I kind of just did those last minute real quickly. I know I can do the pack justice with a little more time ;)
 
Well I just went through the painstakingly-time-consuming task of individually extracting EVERY SINGLE FILE TO THE EXACT LOCATION :bashesheadonwall:

And if it does not work, I am literally going to shoot myself in the face, so if I do not show up for a looooooooooooooooooooooong time, now you know why...

Cheers ^^
 
Yeah, I myself actually just got it to work.

After I had extracted all of the files, I physically went into my dod directory and extracted everything out to the proper folders. Simple if you think about it... simple enough to have been complicated in the beginning.

Simply complicated, one might say...
 
lol MASS DOWNLOADING CHAOS!!! (sry i'm not good at explaining things so i wont be much help!)
 
Also, I just added a default type allies flag. Check the end of the first post if that is your thang ;)
 
i still don't get it




i DLed the update ... but i can't find the file to put it in :\







i still have windows vista btw






anyone care to help me ?
 
I don't know how to make it any simpler Casey... sorry... lol.... It's really not that complicated if you follow the steps I posted...
 
Locate either your valve or steam folder and then click until you find the day of defeat source/dod directory...then drag the materials and models folders into that directory and overwrite.
 
Then, on the upper-left corner of the WinRAR window, there is a folder that is half-open and has a green diamond and above it it says "Extract", click this after you have clicked and dragged a box around the "materials" and "models" folders


the clicked and draged a box around the materials and modles folders.. what does that mean?? i got exstract those sepritly?
 
Just open the .rar file and select both folders and drag into the directory I have told you to. They should both automatically extract then.
 
No, it means that you drag a box around both so that it selects them both lol... just like Huck said, extract it to the correct directory and then it will/should auto-extract to the right places, if not, it's too complicated to explain it to someone with too little cpu experience... sorry dude...
 
awesome job huckleberry =D

one question. my computer isn't the best. it already lags all the time. will these skins make the lagging worse? I'll probably just try it out to see.
