yes if you follow these easy steps just thought I'd explain to all who'd like to know how I got modem to modem Half-life going. You need to have dial-up-server installed (win98 or win95plus). Install IPX/SPX-, NetBEUI- and TCP/IP-protocols (all of them). Set up file-sharing for the drive/dir Half-life is in. Start dial-up-server (My computer -> Dial-up Networking -> Connections -> Dial-up Server). Have your friend (client) call in on your server (by using a standard dial-up-connection). Start Half-life. Choose Multiplayer -> LAN Game. Create a game (server). Have the client (your friend/enemy) join your game. That's about it. Enjoy, Andrew btw: be sure to disable file-sharing for your internet connection (win98 will automatically asks for it), otherwise the whole world'll be able to fiddle around on your hd. Andrew
