When I open source SDK and try to scroll to another game for each engine it won't let me scroll to other games. On engine episode one I can only go to half-life 2 since it's the first choice. On orange box I can only do episode two since it's the first one on that list. I've went to launch settings and did "engine -ep1" and other stuff. I've reinstalled it, refreshed it, and reset it. It looks like for all the configs for the games are set ok. I've ran it in compatibility mode, administrator. I've reinstalled steam and it still didn't work. It still refuses to work. Any suggestions you guys have? I have windows vista 32-bit.

So in the drop-down box, theres no other options? Usually you need to configure the games yourselves. Just open up Hammer with any configuration and manually add the game you want to map for.

No the games are on the list but when I click on them the list goes away and acts like I picked half-life 2.

Then you'll have to manually add the games through Hammers configuration

How can I config it without being in the program?  I can't even open up any of the games for it but I can play them.

Have you tried clicking the option to refresh game configurations? I'd try that or maybe even delete the SDK folders and GCFs and redownload them. I've never had a problem like this before..

Has anyone seen my companion cube?

You can also manually modify the GameConfig.txt file and add your own entries.

I have half-life 2 and it says the config is for it is invalid or missing. I did reinstall SDK again and it still doesn't work.

Nothing looks strange with the config.
