HELIX is a First person shooter source modification created by my brother Xyius (aka Exos212, akA Mr.Data :P), and me, Xyos212. Its emphysis on originality graphically is advanced source mapping, modeling, and texture art. Our goal is to make this look as realistic as possible, but still run at least at 40 FPS on an average machine. (HDR disabled will compensate alot of FPS problems for the low end machines) The gameplay is still being drawn up as we create content. The setting, story, and weapons are all done (in concept) and ready for mapping/modeling, etc. So far gameplay will be as follows: Round based, decent HP so it takes a bit to take an enemy down, Unique movement abilities to vary gameplay, and more little tweaks to the way you recover HP, deal damage, and destroy the enemy. TO SEE THE STORY LINE VISIT OUR WEBSITE AND CLICK "STORY" This is an abstract gameplay explination, and will be updated as we go along. Right now its a bit cumbersome to post progress on a continious...

Check out this new mod! This mod will be a heavilly skill based multiplayer game. It is kinda like a mixture of Counter-Strike And Halo. It will be round based, and the players will have to rush for weapons. The character models are genetically enhanced super soldiers called The Helix. All maps will be HIGHLY detailed and unique, ALL with HDR lighting. Here are some screenshots of some maps..
To see more visit either our homepage.. Helixmod.co.nr OR the ModDB profile... Moddb.com (NOTE: Website has more screenshots.)
The gameplay will feature the following..
-Players will take some damage before they are dead. Much like the health in HL2DM. No one shot headshots to kill someone. (Except with a sniper shot in the head. which will take one shot and then reload.)
-Third person as well as first person elements.
-"Exploding Head" Headshots. Meaning when you shoot someone in the head their head will explode spraying head gibs all around.
-Capture the Flag (Not cetain about this one)

Good job nice maps queit detailed and look nice with good lighting
THere will be NO auto aim. I only say Halo because the HEALTH of the players will be like halo. It takes alot to kill. Also we might have CTF.
And all weapons will be balanced so any gun is good to use.
yea loving that "heavy skillbased" desciption yet you mention halo.... so i assume the game will automatically AIM for you and only two weapons will be viable to use?
EXPLODING HEADS WOOT
seski. may print out one and have my time with it...
wouldnt do that but hell if it was porn i would! but i dont do them kinda things..
maps look good
Looks absolutely awesome.
Maps are excellent.. Site sucks & fails.
Ssssssssssssssnazzy!
I am aware the site isn't as good as it should be. I was planning to revamp it later on, which I will do within the next week.
