HLDJ Zombie Panic?

[Mock2zuma]

I'm stumped. Trying to get HLDJ to play through Zombie Panic. I've seen others do this but they all tell me to find out on your website.

I've set the game directory to: C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\(my user name)\zombie panic! source\zps

But when I try to start it, Zombie Panic doesn't come up... Just Source SDK Base - Orange Box

So I read the thing about 3rd Party Mods and set the parent directory to: C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\(my user name)\half-life 2\hl2

Ah! Same thing happens, Source SDK Base - Orange Box comes on and not Zombie Panic.

EDIT: I've been using HLDJ for two months now on TF2 and everything has been running great. I really want to get it to work with Zombie Panic as well.
Also the version I'm using is 1.4.05

EDIT2: I DLed 1.4.07 but the same thing occurs

Thanks in advance

The "3rd-Party SourceMod" setup only applies to games located under the SourceMods directory.
Basically, an "official" game (i.e. any under SteamApps\username\) should have a unique SteamAppID listed in it's "gameinfo.txt" file; this is what HLDJ uses to launch the game (the mechanism is slightly different for a 3rd party mod).

If username\zombie panic! source\zps\gameinfo.txt does not contain a unique ID (likely it contains ID 215 or some such in their haste to promote it from "3rd-party"-ness) then they've screwed up.

Fortunately, it's not necessary to launch the game to have HLDJ work, just simply disable "Launch game" in Options and start the game manually (also, don't forget to revert your changes to the Alternate Audio Directory).

Awesome works like a charm now!

Thank you very much Renegade, dude you're one of the coolest people on the intrawebz, I owe you.

I'm definitely going to donate next time I get some money up.

Also thank you for replying so quickly.
