-Status Report-
Installer hung for me during the "registering fonts" part of the installer.
I used Universal Extractor to extract the Exe to a folder, then i copied the mod data into a folder i made in the Half Life Directory "sdbc". Rebooted steam and was able to start the game, create a local server, and begin combat.
-Server should work-
Download Half Life Dedicated server, and run this mod as you would any other.
Just logged in (last login was...2013?)
HOLY **** MY CHARACTERS STILL EXIST!??
Well done MS:C Team! Love you guys!
Will always support! :D

Install / Setup HLDS - Follow Step 1 in this guide written by the lads at Master Sword Continued -

Unzip HLRally 1.0 Server first, then copy the contents of HLRally 1.1 Server Patch into that.
Move your hlrally folder into your hlds server folder.
Right click hlds.exe and click "Create Shortcut"
add this without quotes to the target "-console -game hlrally -maxplayers 6 +map rc_sunset +port 27015 +sv_lan 0"

If you've made it this far you should be good to go, double click the Shortcut you just made, and it should start the server. However, there are more tweaks we can make...
----
Go into the hlrally folder
Open up "server.cfg" in your favorite notepad equivalent
Cherry pick from the following commands, add these to the bottom of the server.cfg file. I went with:
mp_joinmidrace 1

I don't know how I feel about Garry's Mod. While I can't argue how influential it was for modding, not many people think of it as a mod when it's being sold on Steam.
Miss the glory days of Natural Selection, Marines vs Marines servers with Gun upgrades <3
It's been a loooonnnnng time sir! I remember playing Half Life mods together online when we were kids! Your username jogged something in my memory and when i clicked on your profile sure enough I saw we were already friends. Time flies! Good to see your still around.
Cheers!
I installed my first Half Life 2 mod in YEARS last night. Lots of core memories coming back about the good ol' days. Super excited to see whats in store for ModDB. Miss ya'll!! <3

And we never saw DarkStarAngelo ever again...
I have tons and tons of mods backed up on my external, I wish there was a list of mods that Gamefront has uploaded that ModDB doesn't have so i could cross -check that with my personal collection. I mean, i could just start uploading stuff... i just dont want to start uploading and end up with duplicates.
Honestly when i did install Morrowind Rebirth awhile ago, i remember there were a few different configurations, i would prefer it to be just one all-inclusive configurations. Come up with the best install method yourself and make it that way (please correct me if im wrong, like i said, its probly been a few years since i've installed it)
for anyone else wondering - yes it is.
Found 7 servers online as of 09/April/2016, with 0 people online.
Was able to get into 2 of the servers out of 3 that i tried, one kept crashing on me upon connection.
We'll be looking forward to any projects folks from Alpha Project end up working on :D
Awesome! I just got home from my vacation, so i'll start reviewing this version of DiOiD :D Do you know if there is such thing as a Doom1 Music pack?
Right on Johnny! Thanks!
Gotta put this on my list of mods to review. Do you recommend any specific maps? I dont know of any Duke style maps for doom.
Why was this posted here? Is this a mod? Related to modding? Or like Zombiestubble said, PC Compatibility?
right on! so proud of you guys!
uuhhhhhh yesssss!!!!
Cant wait to cover this over on Modinformer!!! :D
Done. I hope you understand, im not trying to argue, im trying to help. I'm actually trying to review the mod currently! :D
Okay, after double checking,my original results were wrong(it DOES NOT need the 'Steam Fix', but it seems like the mod will load without AND with the Steampipe patch on the beta version of half life.
It does seem, however dead bodies aren't appearing and the mouse sensitivity is at 20 when you first load into the mod.
When i first started trying to use it i would load in without any controls, now that seems to be working, haven't been able to reproduce that issue yet...
I can confirm the mod works (shows the original background, plays music and all that) - as long as you install this patch first, which is here:
Moddb.com If you install the mod, then go straight to installing the "Steampipe Patch" it wont work. You may wanna add that to your instructions.
^^^ this is me by the way, didnt see that i wasnt logged in.
I noticed when i installed poke 646 and applied this patch, i had to add keybinds into the config.cfg manually (i copy/pasted them from half life's cfg file for my fix), also i noticed the loading screen background and Main Menu background didnt exist. Not sure how to fix that, but the game plays fine.
here's the game's moddb page in case anyone else is wondering
Moddb.com
looks pretty nice so far!
does this have anything to do with Tales?
Good to see this is still in development :D
Such amaze. Very cool. To the moooon!
