Exterminatus, Warhammer 40,000 themed mod for Half-Life 2, for January 2009. Introducing a new map called Hive and more cross mod 40k cooperation news. Possible move to the OrangeBox SDK to work around a crash bug in the Source engine.

Happy new year 2009 from the Exterminatus mod team. This month we have some screen shots from ChromeAngels new map "Hive", set in the undercity spires of a heavily industrialized imperial "hive" world. Hive is still in it's early development, but already has exciting combat across multiple levels.
We would like to offer our thanks to Botje of the Battlefield 40k mod for letting us make use of his dedicated server for testing purposes and all the effort he has put into getting it running. We would also like to thank BoomerangPython of the OnlyWar2 C&C mod for sharing some of the 40k themed models made for OnlyWar with us, we plan to make use of them in some of our forthcoming maps.
While were sending out our gratitude, we should also mention Jay Stelly from Valve Software who was very prompt in helping us find the source of a crash we have been experienced during testing. It turns out their is a flaw with the version of the Source game engine we are using that occasionally causes it to crash when a player uses voice communications. This bug has apparently been fixed in the later OrangeBox version of the engine. It looks like we might have to port all of the changes we made for Exterminatus to this newer version of the game engine to make it stable.
Poll : Do you have an OrangeBox game (Team Fortress 2, Portal, Half-life Episode 2 OR Left 4 Dead) on Steam?
Sorry for the long gap between news posts, progress has been rather limited by the teams addiction to Fallout 3 (damn that game knows how to draw you in...) along with the books and movies we got for Christmas, however it hasn't stopped the mod just yet.

really like the top 2 screenshots! nice detail in the map.
happy newyear to you guys as well! keep up the good work!
BAH, take your time it looks great. and your dont actualy need an OB game to use an OB engine mod, just need to download the OB SDK or somthing...
What Ben said - you don't need an OB game for the OB SDK Base, any game that includes the Source SDK includes it.
Cheers guys, that's good to know.
Yep, I got the Orange Box. Bring on the OB Engine!
Warhammer <3. You've made my day!
W0000 I love Warhammer, maps look a bit bland, but I'm sure they are a work in progress. And to answer your question yes I do still have an orange box game.
Got all Orange Box (and L4D), so no problem there ^^
