On first start you should get a “copying files please wait…” box come up, so just be patient for a bit while it does its thing. Now, let’s close this out and start up the Source SDK. That’s not all that important to you right now, but later on it probably will be so just take my word that it’s a good thing. Note that you now have Face Poser and Model Viewer installed too. You will see on your basic screen something like this: Let’s start with the Authoring Tools…It should start up without any questions. If you didn’t have shortcuts created you can right click the Steam icon and start them from there or go back into your games library and start them that way too. Let’s start each program once now so they can do their initial setup things that they like to do. Ok, so now we’re back, drunk on doughnuts and we have the basic components set up. I will meet you back here when you’re done. While you do that, ima go get a doughnut (because doughnuts are awesome). Follow the on-screen prompts and allow each to install fully. Now right click on each item you want (Left 4 Dead 2 Authoring Tools and Source SDK) and choose Install Game. You can install those by right clicking the Steam icon, selecting Library, then from the Library panel click just to the right of Search and select Tools(this will display all the available tools in case you are not showing them by default). In addition to this I like to have these other things installed too: Left 4 Dead 2 Authoring Tools and the Source SDK. You are obviously going to need to have Steam installed as well as Left 4 Dead 2.
