When I try to start black mesa, I get the message "Engine Error: Could not load library client", what should I do?

I'm getting seriously confused with this. I don't own an Xbox, but I have started to play games on Steam a lot more, and some of them really need a controller. The Xbox one seems to be the "officially supported" one, or at least recommended one. Trouble is, there seem to be so many different v...

Can somebody clear this up for me please? I always thought LXDE comes without a compositor or an element that is present in other desktop environments (DE's) that causes other desktop environments to degrade desktop performance. If it was the case, LXDE would beat any DE in terms of gaming perfor...

When I dump a bucket with water or lava on the ground, or anywhere else, it slowly disappears when it hits the ground. It's impossible to use. This happened after I installed modloader and BTW modpack. Everything works great, except the bucket. I don't think its a glitch or a bug, but I haven't r...

Thanks to Make It Sparkle I can turn Deathtrap's melee attacks into Shock elemental. Does he get my shock damage boost from Wires Don't Talk? Further, does he also get shock damage boosts from other sources like elemental relics?

I did a playthrough with a friend: he (orange knight) spent his whole experience in strength, while I (red knight) spent mine in magic. Most of time, magic seemed to deal more damages, but it was pretty hard to hit several enemies at once. Even if, most of the time, I killed more enemies than h...

Sometimes when killing a monster, you get a part of that monster, which you can split into other items, or keep. Since I have no idea what they're for and splitting can't be undone, I've just been choosing to keep them. What are they for? Should I be splitting them instead?

Taking down a hunter without a vehicle can be a chore. I tend to corpse swarm them in Spartan Ops, but that isn't an option in Campaign. There are a number of obvious choices with power weapons and grenades we can enumerate for sake of being complete, but I'm mostly looking for strategies when ...

During a fight, my team's morale seems to fluctuate a lot. The game said keeping it high is good, though I've forgotten why. What events cause morale to go up or down? Is there any way I can control it?

During battles, I feel like I have no idea what's going on. My unit-groups will intercept and be intercepted; interfere and be interfered (?); flank and be flanked; and become deadlocked (is this good or bad?). This all happens seemingly at random. Is there any way of knowing which actions wil...

I understand that in Jumper:Redux, graphics and sound effects are improved over the original Jumper. As well a few new features have been added, like multiplayer. What I want to know though is there any differences in core level design or gameplay that would change the actual way the two games ar...

On your mech and sufficiently scouted enemy mechs, you get damage readouts like this: It looked simple at first, but I'm confused now. What's do the borders and the solid colors inside mean?

In starcraft 2 campaign you are awarded credits for finishing missions. You are also sometimes awarded credits for bonus objectives in those missions. I wonder if that is all that is to it? In my opinion it be ideal to have a list of all objectives and missions and how much credits they will ear...

Basically, my ManShep is going after Kaidan. I want to tell Cortez that "I'm waiting for the right man..." but that man isn't Steve. Can I do that and then turn him down gently, or will it lock me into a romance with him/offend him if I show no interest?

When I have Vsync on my framerate is capped to 30 instead of 60. Also, when I go fullscreen the mouse seems to have really fast acceleration and the game looks really jumpy. I could run this on Windows fine. AMD Athlon II x2 250 3.0GHz 8 GB RAM AMD Radeon HD 7750 GDDR5 1GB. Do I need to install...

Earlier I used to play MW3 multiplayer. There we have very simple way to chat. Just press T and write, everyone can see that. Press Y and write only your team mates can see that. But in Assassin's creed 3 I don't find any such way. How to do in game text chat? PS: I play Assassin's creed MP on u...

So I'm fresh off my first extremely embarrassing loss in Endless Space and I need a little guidance so I don't repeat the showing. I mainly researched the exploration and expansion tree and I found myself horribly under-equipped weapons-wise. So after watching ship after ship get shredded under t...

I've been trying to write the perfect MystCraft age for me to plunder for its resources, but unfortunately including the Dense Ores symbol invariably seems to make it unstable. At least I get hit with a debuff when I travel there, which I'm pretty sure indicates instability. Is there a combinati...

I have mobs disabled by essentials as below but want to allow mods and above to be able to spawn farm animals. I am using GroupManager as my permission system. Currently when mods try to spawn animals they get the error "Spawning this mob was disabled in the config file". # Prevent the spawning ...

Am in the market and looking for a gaming laptop. I plan on dual booting windows / linux. I have a day job as a web developer and would like to put on the occasional game every so. I've looked at a few laptops, such as Alienware, Eurocom, Sager and Origin. Origin and Sager have caught my attenti...

I purchased Civ5 Game of the Year Edition (physical CD) in June from Amazon - a seemingly brand new, unopened package. I was never successful in installing and opening the game, and the Valve/Steam system was beyond confusing (I had no idea that you'd have to do anything other than purchase the ...

Related: How do I know what manufacturer's parts are on a gun? The accepted answer to the linked question indicates that all guns by a particular manufacturer share a common trait: Tediore guns always explode when you reload them, Hyperion guns become more accurate the more you shoot, and so...

I have no deals or treaties with this civilization, yet it seems like the computer is able to fly whatever type of fleet it wants through my territory, and even orbit my systems. Even if I try to fly a ship into its territory I can't, as we don't have an open border treaty. Actually, if our rela...

If I buy Scribblenauts Unlimited (PC) at Amazon.com and ship it to Europe, will I be able to attach it to my German Steam account or at least play it at all? Thanks, TwoFx
