"This application is not a valid 16-bit application!"

My friend has just given me a copy of Worldcraft 2.2 on a floppy, so I open hammer.exe and the said message shows up. What is wrong? Here is how i opened the program:

C:
cd Worldcraft
worldcraft.exe

...worldcraft is now called hammer and hammer is now at version 3.4 or 3.5beta.

Um, are you running in DOS?

I can't even get Worldcraft to work. And yes, I have DOS 6.22 and Windows 3.1 for Workgroups.

Straight: You wont get WC to run on your PC.
Half-Life was made for 32bit systems. You should at least use Win95.
If you want to use HL/WC you must get a better PC.
Try ebay, you can get sufficent hardware there for only a few bucks.

Were sorry that we can't help you, we could if you didn't have 3.1. My suggestion is to try Valve Hammer Editor. There is a link on this site I believe. Click on the links tab to the left.

Either you're even poorer than me, or you go to the wrong places to buy a PC.
I know that hardware is expensive in some countries, so you really go to ebay.
Most systems you get there already have an OS, such as Windoze98 and everything else you need.
