Black Mesa: Uplink v. 1.0 - ZIP version
Dec 17, 2012 Full Version 10 commentsThe release version of Black Mesa: Uplink (version 1.0) - ZIP archived version.
Black Mesa: Uplink is the recreation of the Half-Life demo (HL: Uplink) released by Valve in early 1999. The demo featured content that was scrapped from the original storyline. Some might consider it canon with the story, others don't. What matters though, is that many people enjoyed this short episode and that's the reason why I created Uplink for Black Mesa, the long awaited Half-Life remake for the Source Engine.
To play Black Mesa: Uplink, you will need the Source SDK Base 2007 (free) and a copy of the Black Mesa (also free!).

An update for everyone who has participated in the 3FM Serious Request Charity Event. Between the 18th and 24th of December 3 DJ's from a national Dutch radio station are holding their 7 day famine while being locked up in a glass house, to raise money for the Red Cross. This year's goal is to fight unecessary death of babies in third world countries.

I've asked the followers of my MOD to donate some money for this cause and I'm glad a few of you decided to help out. Together we''ve raised 50 USD and I've donated 40 EUR today. Currently 4,3 million EUR (5,7 million USD) has been donated by people in the Netherlands and with 1 day left it''s likely to become even higher. Hopefully a lot of good work can be done with that money.
EDIT: Event has officially ended and a record of donations has been raised: 12,25 million EUR!
Thank you all for the support! I wish all donators, followers and voters a merry Christmas (if you celebrate it) and all the best for 2013!

Bug report: you changed the font/text and this breaks the Black Mesa: Source intro: Steamcommunity.com
i disliked this mod becaus eto much animations were missing(like when you went up the ladder in the sewer you should have seen a zombie eating from a soldiers corpse),no voice overs,hezus didnt gave a damn **** about this mod,he should have asked help,but the maps where good remade,the ending was good,but its far from completion,if the bm devs would play this they would say the same,why the hell did you think they made theirs in 8 years? because it had to be perfect without bugs, and if they would making this mod tehy would have made it in a year,and im not saying that i could do it better,but its verry good the donations goes to the red cross
So it's very good, but I didn't give a damn **** about it? That sounds a bit like a contradiction.
I'm aware this is not a full-blown MOD. And yes, I could have found/paid people to make new animations and sounds and other blingbling. Contrary to popular belief, modders are not magical beings with unlimited time and funds to make stuff especially for you for free. We do this because sometimes we have some spare time between our day jobs and social lives to mess around in Source SDK. That's why BM took 8 years to be released and it's not done yet. I was not going to make the same mistake, so I planned my free time in the last months to actually be able to ship Uplink this year.
As I said before: in a remake you can't please everyone. People will always complain. From the comments I can tell most people are happy with it and so am I. Be happy there are people out there who even bother making stuff for free.
As one of my friends said :
"It's not a mod, just a pack of maps !"
So don't be so surprised and disappointed !
dude this should be the remake of uplink it misses to much animations, and no voice overs,if you need more proof to be disapointed play the original uplink,youl see what i mean,but the map is good and the ending to just i said before,still its an unfinished mod.
I'm confused. I just downloaded and been playing Black Mesa... you know... the remake of the original Half Life? So what does this have to do with that? Does it have anything to do with that? Is this an expansion or improvement of the recently released Black Mesa???
The original "Uplink" was a demo for playable demo for Half Life, made from content that Valve cut from HL, so it fit's into the story. So, this "Uplink" is a remake of that one, as Black Mesa is a 'remake' of Half Life.
Love this! :'D Youtube.com
yes! you need BM
