Smilie Steam 3.0

To get the new steam gui 3.0 beta add

-clientbeta betaui


to the launch properties for steam.exe

1. Right click on the steam icon
2. Click properties
3. Go to target and add " -clientbeta betaui" (w/o quotes)
4. Look at this if still confused

Preview #1(large gui)
Preview #2(small gui)

How much better is it? is it the same steam we all love to hate and want to be destroyed or a completely revamped system.

It probably just looks prettier, I'll go see for myself.


Edit: nice find but where did you find it?

Too bad I'm not on my new comp or I would be downloading all the mods for HL2.


Edit: I like this version better for the mod support because it gives you a simple list and seperates the mods for either HL1 or 2, I also heard that they will put the most popular mods in like a top 10 type deal for HL2.

Either edit your registry entry for steam to start automatically
and add the needed string . Or simply uncheck start steam with
windows in the steam settings
