You wake up in a dark alley, not knowing anything. What has happened anyway? You struggle after the truth and answers. Answers you want to know in the darkness and fear, which makes your heartbeat race like violent blows against your head. Where do "they" come from? What has happened? Are you just turning insane? The time is up; you can't stay there reading your smses forever. It's time to head out and find the answers. Cry of Fear is a singleplayer modification of Half-Life 1 which brings you the horror you've always been afraid of. It's a total conversion of Half-Life 1, which means it uses NO Half-Life 1 content or other peoples' files. It's all made exclusively by the developers. It also uses new gaming styles that you will rarely find in Half-Life mods, such as advanced cutscenes and other stuff that will be revealed at a later date.
Cry of Fear 1.3 has gone live! This might be our biggest patch yet, containing an awesome new game mode, including new maps and monsters. We could almost call this a DLC. We're also really glad we reached 200,000 downloads! We never thought that would happen so early. I personally expected it to happen at the end of this year, but it went so much quicker! Awesome, plain awesome.

Cry of Fear 1.3 has gone live! This might be our biggest patch yet, containing an awesome new game mode, including new maps and monsters. We could almost call this a DLC. Check out the trailer here!
We're also really glad we reached 200,000 downloads! We never thought that would happen so early. I personally expected it to happen at the end of this year, but it went so much quicker! Awesome, plain awesome. Anyway, here's the changelist of patch 1.3:
To find the changelists of patch 1.1, head here:
Moddb.com
To find the changelists of patch 1.2, head here:
Moddb.com
1. Launch the CoF app program (the shortcut that generates on your desktop when you install Cry of Fear). If you don't have the shortcut, you can manually find the .exe in this directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\yourusername\half-life\CryOfFear\CoFLaunchApp.exe.
2. Once your launch program is up, simply click "CHECK FOR UPDATES", and it will download it and install it for you automatically. Once the install is done, restart Steam.
If you want to download manually, you can do so here: www.cry-of-fear.com/patches/patch.exe
For you who have not yet tried Cry of Fear, please download it from here down below. We recommend you follow this guide if you are not sure how to install Cry of Fear:
Cry-of-fear.com
SDK v1.1 contains more info about the logic and scripting + an SDK campaign demonstrating how things works. It also demonstrates how the new game mode logic works. Go to the download section to find the latest SDK version.
As we said on the other news, we have released the Cry of Fear OST. It contains 50 songs of emotional and horrifying music, along with many other secret unused songs that we planned to have in the game. The songs are mastered and mixed to suit best as music rather than in-game music for a game.
You can find the album here:

Anyways, see you out there, and hopefully you will cry of fear.
Awesome. Is this save game compatible with the previous patch?
Seems to be :)
why does the video say 20/05/2012?
its still 17th
Because they finished early, and got excited because of the 200k downloads.
Great job guys, looking forward to playing this. Just excellent.
Pretty psyched for the new game mode. Will try it out soon!
You guys are putting so much effort into an already fantastic and completed mod, thanks for everything you do.
Gonna' duke it out with peeps tomorrow. 2pro guys!
Can someone help, I only see 2 empty servers in coop and both say client.dll differs
yeah I'm getting that too I think its because the servers haven't been updated to 1.3
Work it on a old PC?
Still don't see anything about fixing this for ATi/Radeon hardware. :\
Because it probably won't be done.
I use an AMD/Ati graphics card and seem to be fine, so it might be just for particular cards.
Horde mode? Okay then...
Awesome patch, guys! I'm still waiting for the white screen to be fixed!
200k downloads and the 9.5 rating - those numbers are there for a reason. I (and 200k other people, derp) LOVE this mod.
please update the servers to 1.3
I wasn't prepared and this game scared me horribly.
You guys need more servers up, Any change at releasing the server files?
cant wait to play.. btw why dont you guys put torrent link on this site? (:
Shame, I haven't been able to get past the first level since it always crashes for me :( I've seen the intro so many times I've lost count.
Hey, im playing normal, second time play... i have glock, knife, phone, and secret package... i have nine magazines...

If the answer is no, no problem, it's just a question
Nope.
Can Anyone tell me how big this patch is, because i have very limited download.
Really fun to play. Awesome work, guys! always appreciated the work of Team Psykskallar and their previous editions. Keep the hotness on top!
I downloaded the latest version of COF but when i go to do Co-op It says dll. Differs from server help anyone?
Custom Campaigns......does this mean Single Player coop works now!?!? :D
