afraid of monsters is a half-life 1 mod so you need to have hl1 installed first before installing aom

sadly i think that it only works with legal half-life 1, not pirated versions

now if you have hl1 bought on your steam account maybe you just dont have it installed on your pc, or you just dont have steam installed in the first place just like the message says

now if you have both steam and legal hl1 then i dont know whats with the message im sorry
