Rock 24 takes place on an abandoned Cliffside prison. The prison is situated on the side of a sheer cliff face meaning the only real way in and out is by air. The combine have moved in to the facility and are re-using it as a place to hold rebel leaders and other important Rebels. Gordon is required to infiltrate, free the Rebel leader and hopefully escape from the facility alive. Unfortunately the prison is rapidly deteriorating around him and there isn't much time. Rock24 was in production for 9 months as a spare time personal project by two guys who work in the games industry. This is their first mod and attempt at level design.
Rock 24 is a Single Player Mod for Half Life 2. This is our first mod and attempt at level design. Hope you enjoy! Story: After a disastrous rescue attempt to free Richard G Newell, a renowned rebel scientist, Dr. Gordon Freeman awakes to find himself locked in a holding cell on a mountainside prison

Please put it in a compressed format. the installer dont work for me, even if you guys cant compress it, can you add a chose directory feature in the installer. i Gots steam installed in D drive
Not a bad mod. It had a nice balance of combat and puzzles and all flowed very smoothly. A few things I thought could have been improved:
1. The final battle was a bit dull. The fact that all the Combine came from the same entry point meant you could just camp behind those crates and keep shooting (especially considering your squadmates provided a lot of distraction for them).
2. The Strider was obstructed too much by the scenery, thus creating a similar situation to the one above. There were too many areas to hide from it which took out a lot of the thrill of a Strider fight.
3. It took me a while to figure out the elevator bit, mainly because I assumed the water would be permanently electrified (not just when the beam is zapping it). I'm not a physicist though so I could be wrong. Anyone know?
4. Although the voice acting and faceposer work was great, there could have been some more interesting dialogue between other NPCs to give them a little depth. For example, Richard and Laura.
5. Level design was a little visually cluttered and ugly in parts but pretty consistent and worked well with regards to layout etc.
I thoroughly enjoyed playing the mod though, much better than most other single player mods I've played. I'd like to see more from this story!
electricity cannot be stored -- it only flows when you have a source and a user. i agree to all your comments, id only add it was THE BEST MOD I'VE SEEN.
Just played the mod and i gotta tell you it is one of the best well made singleplayer hl2 mods out there right now, i really enjoyed playing through it
Thank you very much for the great feedback!! It's good to hear positive things, we have spent a lot of time on it and even though it's not perfect we are proud of what we have acheived! :)

Installing worked for me on D drive.
Some small issues like the double doors that only open one half made me stuck because i tried to open the wrong half and concluded they were closed :)
The installer didn't work :( It's just saying "skippped" to all the files. Both on C: and D:
Any tips?
