The final version of CSS SCI FI 3: Hardwired has been released. CSS SCI FI 3: Hardwired is a single-player mod for Source featuring 42 unique, replayable missions. CSS SCI FI includes an interactive mission hub and full Configuration Utility which players can use to select different styles of gameplay, ranging from extreme realism to gib-tastic gore. Each mission is goal-oriented and non-linear and can be played and replayed using different tactics, options and strategies.
The maps
Missions in CSS SCI FI take place in 18 retail and 24 custom Counter-Strike: Source maps, which are installed intact to the player's CS:S game folder. The maps are unchanged and are fully playable in Counter-Strike: Source. Maps have been carefully selected with the collaboration of established designers, including Bluestrike, Schuzak and d00ds.com.
Replay value
Replay value sets CSS SCI FI apart from other single-player mods. Because the layout of each map is non-linear, there is never only one way to approach a particular target or goal. Players can work through each mission as many times as they like, discovering new features (including hidden secret weapons) and using new options from the configuration utility each time. Resources are distributed differently and enemies change their tactics with every play, making each mission a unique experience. CSS SCI FI brings the unpredictable excitement and high-quality replay value of a multi-player game to the single-player Source audience.
Get it now
To play, only Counter-Strike: Source is required. If it is not already installed, the free Source SDK base will also be downloaded through Steam automatically when the mod is started for the first time.

Pros:
I really liked it altogether.
SMOD weapons were cool addition.
Crazy epic gibbing effects.
It actually seemed like there was a storyline to it with the maps.
Cons:
NPC allies are pretty retarded.
No custom voiceovers.
No actual storyline.
Get workin' on Hardwired 2 for god's sake!

Are there any plans to expand on this MOD or to make a version 4 with new campaigns and missions?
Yes - a major expansion is near completion. There won't be new maps in this release, but all missions have been tightened and enhanced, and many have been rewritten entirely. Look for it in about 6 weeks or so.
Game seems pretty cool! I tried to get some of the weapons from the Mod, but cannot seem to obtain them, through console controls or gameplay. Any suggestions?
Each mission is balanced to the weapons available within it, with more powerful weapons available as missions demand it. Using commands to give extra weapons before they would otherwise appear will ruin the game. If you want to just try out weapons, you can visit the weapons range in the mission hub.
This is an error not related specifically to this mod but rather to a failure to mount required resources. You need to verify the game cache for Counter-Strike: Source.
From Steam support:
Load Steam
From the Library section, right-click on the game and select Properties from the menu.
Select the Local files tab and click the Verify integrity of game cache... button.
Steam will verify the game's files - this process may take several minutes.
Once the process is completed, the Check Window will automatically exit.
Fine is working but i have second bug in the game i'm going to armory i want take all weapons, some weapons i can't take whats wrong?
Please see the Config Utility reference: Amphibian.myzen.co.uk

Sounds like something is wrong with your Counter-Strike: Source installation. Make sure CS:S itself runs fine - play maps with bots, for example, to check that cs_italy (the second map of the first campaign) works correctly. If it's all fine there then it should be all fine in this mod, as long as you haven't made any changes to the mod files after installation.
