Deathmatch does not count as a source game for mods and such.  You have to have a full game.

Which is why they don't let you play mods with Deathmatch.

I think there are Deathmatch mods..just not commonly anymore, since the majority of people who try to play already have one or more of the games in the Orange Box. Base resources, engine revision, etc are all determined by which base you use - DM is different from Ep 1 and Ep 2 is newer than them all, as far as engines go, and most have different content. So most prefer to work with the newer engine and more resources.

I tried to play it, joined a server, heard nothing but random quake noises, walked in the same direction as the rest of my team, was killed by an explosion seemingly from thin air before i even saw my first enemy which the game informs me was a hand grenade. 30 similar deaths and 2 kills(one rocket launcher, one physics throw) later, i asked about how everybody got those magic teleporting and instantly detonating grenades, got about 10 exclamations of "cuz ur a nub" and was votekicked off the server.

I can see why everybody abandoned it for tf2 the moment that came out with a community like that.

People toss a grenade at their feet, pick it up with the gravity gun, then launch it at their enemies, effectively making grenades really long range, and with a really short fuse as well.
