At present there are five Half-Life newsgroups: alt.games.half-life (Main group, for discussion and questions relating to Half-Life) alt.games.half-life.editing (For discussion and questions relating to Half-Life level editing, mods, etc) alt.games.half-life.tfclassic (For discussion and questions relating to Team Fortress Classic, the free add-on for HL that comes with the 1.0.0.9 patch) alt.binaries.games.half-life (For posting HL related binary files, i.e. screenshots, crosshair files, etc) alt.games.half-life.modifications (For discussion and questions relating to Half-Life mods (Jailbreak, Counterstrike, etc) Not all ISPs carry all these groups. If you find yours doesn’t, you should mail them and ask them to add it. [1.2] I’ve got a question! I’m gonna post it right away! Stop! Don’t post yet! Do the following before posting your question: • Read the readme.txt file that comes with Half-Life. It answers many common questions. • Read the FAQs! This one and HQH’s.
