how do i save?

[Squall954]

yeah um, how do i save? i know its probably a stupid question, but i purchased hl2 and cs:s over steam and when i hit the ~ button, it doesnt bring up a console for me to save in. so how do i save my progress?

 

[GonzoBabbleshit]

press escape and select 'save', or press F5 (i think)

F6 is quicksave, actually.

If you are quiting the game there is also a prompt to save.

~ doesn´t work. You´ll have to do some stuff to make it happen. I´m too lazy right now to elaborate. :thumbs:

But I will. Just follow this guide I made for HL2DM (but it will also work for Half-Life 2) : Here
Yes, I have too much spare time on my hands

It's actually a guide for binding keys, so just follow it until you got the console. Oh, and replace 'Half-Life 2 DeathMatch' with 'Half-Life 2' everytime you read it

To save you go to the bank and open a deposit account...
But seriously you guys are being stupid, and the guy who posted this thread is being stupider. Look you see that button in the top left corner of your keyboard. The one with Esc on it? Esc is short for escape. Now push it and it will open the menu. If you can't figure it out from here you are too stupid to funtion in society and should read below

Spoiler

PRESS THE F*CKING BUTTON BUTTON MARKED SAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(BTW highlight that to read it)(BTW, BTW means 'by the way')
If you still can't figure out what do do from here shoot yourself right now because the only good you will ever do society is dead.















































Sorry about that, I'm in a bit of a bad mood.
