You can also get the small version and start a new account, then add the CD-keys.

If I download this, i have to connect to internet every time to play CS 1.6? I want to play against bots. Also is it possible not to be steam?

first download the half-life and CS
then use gcfscape to extract all the files from the half-life.gcf and counter-strike.gcf to the same folder
then you'll be able to run the HL directly, and run CS with "hl.exe -game cstrike"
if still have problems, search for filesystem_stdio.dll file in the Steam install dir and copy it to the HL main dir

as you already have the HL cd-key this shouldn't be so bad

also please download and install the M$ .net framework SDK before using gcfscape:

you're forgetting he'll need to extract the halflife engine.gcf and also download the dedicated server.gcf and extract filesystem_stdio.dll

Heyyo,

Well, if you download steam from www.steampowered.com you only need to longin once after being fully updated, n' then when steam tries to login it'll say: "error, cannot connect to steam." then just click "offline mode" and there you go, you'll never have to worry aboot logging online onto steam.

or when u start steam make sure ur internet connection is disabled whiel it starts up then it will come up with a dialog box asking to retry or go offline

once ur offline u can use the net as u like
