This is a Half-Life 2 total conversion. It's a mod based strongly on Diablo 1 with the style of gameplay in Diablo 2. I always felt Diablo 1 had the better story and atmosphere, but Diablo 2 had the better gameplay and more useful features. In this mod, we're attempting to pull together the best of both of the games to bring the player into a truly download worthy mod. The story will be recreated from scratch and will be based loosely on the Diablo 1 story. This story will be entirely new and is not meant to affect the outcome of either Diablo 1, Diablo 2, or any of the Diablo novels or upcoming games (Diablo 3). We Will Not Release Crap

Hey. If you think this is an interesting mod, or if you like the Diablo games, and you have some special skills, why not help us?

Here's what we're looking for:
    1. Secondary Coder
    2. Primary 3D Modeller (even better if you can texture)
    3. Secondary Mapper
    4. Texture Artist (??)
    5. Music/Sound Effects (??)

If there's something here you can do to help that we didn't list, that's ok too.

Either way, you can email me: Dremth@gmail.com
or post a comment or something. If you'd like to add me on Steam, my username is Dremth. I'm always logged on if my computer has power, so just send me a message.
I'm usually active on Steam:
    Weekdays: 5pm ~ 12am (midnight) CST
    Weekend: 10am ~ 11pm CST

Thanks!
-- Dremth

This is very ambitious, make sure you know what kind of work is needed to put together this kind of total conversion.

Yo, this mod looks great. I have some experience in mapping in other editors. I have experience with editing 3d environments (Most noticeably in the elder scrolls series.). I would like to note that I have never used hammer, but give me a few days and I bet I can use it. So if you are still looking for a secondary mapper then I would love to help in that area.

Oh hey bcool, it's me DELTA. To get hammer I am pretty sure you need at least one source game to get the Source SDK...and most Source games cost money...of course I could be wrong...I just looked at my steam tools one day and I had the source SDK.

But we could always use a back up mapper...

Do you have any experience with 3D Modeling or skinning? Because those are some of the main job's we're looking for...

By the way I am Dremth's brother I am the Writer, a sort of Sketcher, Tester, and an Idea guy

I know I need source SDK, I have the orange box so getting a source game is no problem. I have 0 experience modeling and texturing but if you wanna point to freeware applications for such tasks I would be more then willing to give it a try.

blender is pretty good. it's a little weird but after you use it for a little bit it makes all the other seems weird ;)
blender is completely free and works on a variety of operating systems too, in case you want to model on linux or something :P
Blender.org
make sure you check out the video tutorials on the interface.
blender is what i made the models in that are in the images section, and those were the first things i'd ever modeled.

No, it was just a coincidence. Abaddon is a synonym for Diablo and I liked the look of the Abaddon font and I already had the font installed. :)
