This is a quick question. Someone just quickly look in their steam copy of HL1 (non-source) and tell me. I play only source games on steam. I'm [b]thinking[/b] of getting a steam HL1. I already have the source version. My knowledge so far. My WON retail CD version: 1.0 Latest official WON patch: 1.1.1.0/protocol 46 Latest un-official WON patch: 1.1.1.2/protocol 46 "WON2" --this one is considered warez by most people. Big no no. Latest steam version: [b]?????[/b] Thanks in advance, KD007
It's version 1.1.1.1, according to the version number shown by looking at the properties of the its .EXE, so that should be the answer.

But I wouldn't trust the version in the EXE's header. It is common that devs forget to update it. Try typing 'version' in the console. My WON version outputs: [code] Protocol version xx Exe version x.x.x.x Exe build: {time} {month} {day} {year} (BUILD) [/code]

Thanks a bunch. I can see why it has to be a new protocol altogether (compared to my 46). It has cooler stuff like HTTP downloading. I'm so getting it.
