Named Game of the Year by over 50 publications, Valve's début title blends action and adventure with award-winning technology to create a frighteningly realistic world where players must think to survive. Also includes an exciting multiplayer mode that allows you to play against friends and enemies around the world.

Description

I've found this mod installer for Xcelleration Open Source Jail Break 1.0 in my huge mod collection/archive. But unfortunately I can't remember how to get the installer running well. You get this installation screen shown in the screenshot, but it seems this screen stays forever. Maybe it doesn't work with a modern operating system (tested on Windows XP and 7). So if anyone out there can tell how to get the installation working properly - please let me/us know. Thank you in advance.

Looks like this setup is broken, because it freezes on operation. I found data.pak extracted in my TEMP folder, but this file is packed with SetupStream program and I don't know how to extract it. I managed to investigate this file with HyperRipper (Dragon Unpacker tool) and yes, this is HL mod (seems to be a multiplayer one), but this tool can't extract this data.pak properly, only single bmp/tga/wav files without right folders' structure and files' names. Maybe just DATA.PAK is corrupt.

So I assume it's a multiplayer mod Jallbreak! for WON HL (by some extracted files). Maybe some kind of a special edition of this mod.

Thank you very much for testing the installer and trying to extract it.

Unfortunately it means, that this version will be lost forever? :(

Who knows? I just tried one more time and found, that DATA.PAK is also a program file (exe with pak extension). But even renamed to data.exe it can not run properly. Looks like those guys chose a wrong type of program for creating a setup, lol.

This is why zip files are better as they don't freeze for no reason.

Just uploaded OSJB Version 1 there:

Probably, it's almost the same version of the mod as the version here, but RAR-chived, so you should be able to extract all stuff without any problems :)
