Introduction To The Game

The Citadel has fallen and now humanity must get back up. With the alien nemesis defeated the surviving rebel army attempts to reestablish the rule of law. Unable to agree on whether to continue the Black Mesa experiments or to outlaw all alien technology the rebel army fractures into two rival factions: The Alliance and the Coalition.

With the fall of the new alien enemy comes the return of the old enemy, ourselves.

WELCOME TO THE OCCUPATION


Occupation is a HL2 combat simulation mod that implements a unique bullet, damage and game rules system. It creates a new and innovative approach to Multiplayer Gaming using ownership as the principal objective and controlled transport reinforcement as the principal means of respawning. Occupation also provides a Single player training mode pitting two HL2 AI run Factions against each other with you in the middle. The game seeks to enhance the FPS by creating a realistic game play environment where the bullets don't just penetrate and exit the target but also expand and fragment inside them causing the target not just to die but weaken, collapse and even pass out.

Game Features

External and Terminal Ballistic Modeling:In Occupation Bullet behavior is based on real world physics. The bullets ability to move and penetrate depends on its physical characteristics such as energy, diameter, mass, shape and material composition to name a few. As bullets are projected through time and space their interaction with the world cause them to slow, drop, expand, fragment, deflect, lodge and obliterate during their short life. The end result is both amazing and terrifying and most importantly realistic.

Player Biometric ModelingHaving realistic projectiles with a simple tally damage system would have been pointless so Occupation implemented a health-damage system equal to that of the Ballistic Modeling. The Game uses a Composite health system that captures the complexity of the human bodies operation and most importantly its failure due to trauma.

The primary form of projectile damage to players and NPC's is caused by cavity damage. The extent of the cavity made by the projectile, the energy lost in making that cavity and the body parts the cavity passes through all are factors in the calculation of overall impact damage. The truly unique aspect of Occupation is that the cavity damage is not limited to a single hit location but can intersect many locations along the path of the projectile and can involve multiple entry and exit wound tracts. A summary injury report is available in-game (Body Status) and a complete breakdown of these injuries both sustained and inflicted is available after death.

Have the Iron Sights working perfectly, the ammo bag working and the bullet code fixed. I am tweaking and testing the HUD in Wide Screen Mode and will then release. I am done giving bad estimates so lets just say soon ( days not weeks) . Sorry for the delay. The dedicated server and Deadwood coding will quickly follow this release

Later,

OccupationG

This is still one of my favourites to watch so glad to hear things are still moving forward :)

Is there anyway of adjusting the capture times at the level design/creation stage? I wanted to try out making the captures much, much faster both ways so you actually have to have people at a place to make sure its secure.

Sorry about the delay, I had some hardware failures but have now resolved them and am back developing. The release of the latest version has been delayed until the first week of October due to the fact that I am exausted. Now that I am back online I will provide more regular updates.

Yeah, no problem on that... and thanks for fixing the names >_> for some reason that annoyed me the most about the game/mod/thing XD

Good to hear you finally took up my opinion about Valve's Default and non-realistic animations on iron-sight effects.
I assure you you will be happy with the results...
... that is... if they're as good as I hope they'll be...

Improving Iron Sights is definitly a priority for Occupation: Source aswell as accuracy of weapon behaviour and capability.

"After this release I will establish a permanent dedicated server for the OccupationCS version." Looking forward to that :)
