A half Life1 Opposing Force mod. You're Corporal Shepard. A Soldier which arrives at Black Mesa in an alternate reality. Another Experiment went wrong and your mission: To find out what happened in Black Mesa and rescue the trapped personnel in it.
We are looking for a coder.
We need help! Read the entire news to learn more about the latest progress and why we needing you....
Posted by 23-down on Sep 16th, 2009
Hey people! Today we require your help. We created some new models but have absolutely no idea of coding. To insert new monsters you need the Hl SDK what is no problem so far but since we're building on a Op4 mod we can't include the Opposing Force monsters. Unfortunately our own coding knowledge is very limited. So we can't include the Op4 monsters manually.
So if you're a coder with C++ knowledge (that's the script language used in Hl1.) and have some free time + the wish to assist us then please contact me here on mobbb just write me a private message and I will answer shortly. Due to our storyline it was clear that we needed some custom monsters but without a Coder we are forced to think on something else. The quality of the entire mod is at stake. So please if one of you like to help us or know someone who could help then please contact me.
The coders only task would it be to make sure that the new mod Dll. is running and to include some new reskinned models like the Blackop Zombie below. So it isn't that much work for a real coder I guess.
In other news: We did again some nice progress. 2 more maps are finished and a third map is on it's way. Enjoy the screenshots below. 2 Pictures will show some map areas and one picture shows our new Blackop Zombie which we can't include yet without a coder.

I dont know how to code, its very easy in some ways but very hard. But good luck!
You guys have got a problem then: Gearbox never released the Opposing Force code. Therefore, if you need coded extras then a programmer is going to need to start with the fresh HL1 SDK, recode the entities for Opposing Force (assuming you still want things like night vision, ropes, race X, new weapons etc) and then code the things you need. Good luck with it though.
Yea, this is quite a problem. The guys at Sven Coop managed to code some of the Opposing Force monsters and weapons into Half-life, so it's definitely possible.. Though I doubt they would be willing to help.
That's the big problem indeed. We would do it by our own if it would be that easy.
I just hope that maybe someone is reading this who allready created a stand alone op4 mod and still has the sources. Otherwhise it's like I wrote in the news the mod wont get custom models. It will be a simple mappack then if we don't get another choice.
Damn that's a problem indeed.Maybe finding someone from Scoop to help us?Hopefully...Awesome pics btw 23 love the first one :)
I was thinking.. Do you know how the grunts have different heads? Well, for the models there are different groups, such as heads and bodies.. I might be able to make the models into a different body group rather than a separate model. The fgd will then require a bit of editing, but it's better than recreating the Opposing Force code.. I'm not really sure how this works though, it will most likely be really buggy, so don't count on it. But I will give it a try.
Nice idea but it's impossible.. I'm also using the other Op4 monsters as well + weapons + effects..
You would be able to use Opposing Force still, and all the weapons from it.
You should ask SysOp (he's a member here), he coded Race X NPCs for his own mod (and released its source code on some forum (probably Spirit of Half-Life's).
Fantastic I will do that right away.. Thx Barneyinblue.
This should also help you: Zzero.fatal.ru
Click "Half-Life", then "SDK Opposing Forces". Not sure how good that code is though, as I haven't tested it myself.
Pages no longer seem to be working.
Very pitty the link isn't working anymore like Barney said..
This would have been exacly what we needed.
Oh, sorry about that. You can also contact Demiurge here: Half-life.ru
He was last active on that forum on 31-08-2009, so he must still be around. Now you just need someone who speaks Russian. :P
You can always use a translator.. :P
Yeah, dunno how well that'd come out though.
Russian to English translations usually end up like... lol.
I can't join the project but I can help you out on that. Add me on msn.
Good luck!
Repost:
You doesn't need a coder. Attach this model as submodel to soldier's zombie model, and change FGD file (as we did it for SAd).
