After some extensive testing, I was able to bring SMOD Tactical: Project Life back to a working state. The file may be a bit bloated because of SMOD Redux, but so far everything works. I fixed this by merging both SMOD Redux 10 (which is Steampipe compatible) and Project Life. The result was astounding. This file also comes packed with the necessary CSS files.
Reintroducing one of the most brutal, yet rewarding mods for Half Life 2: SMOD: Tactical. This mod is not for the faint of heart, and can kick your ass if you don't pay attention. This changes the "Run and Gun" style of Half-Life 2 to a more careful approach, checking corners and making sure the area is clear before proceeding. Enemies have much higher accuracy and can kill you with one well-placed headshot. However, the same applies to them. Weapon arsenal has been expanded to include real-life weaponry, including, but not limited to, the Kimber .45, Colt M4A1 with variants, and the Benelli M3 Super.
This mod utilizes SMOD's features for a more immersive experience: HUD is limited to ammo count and health regenerates overtime (This can be disabled), armor will help block shots, but once it's out, you'd better find cover. The kick's power has been reduced to a more realistic degree, and can help save your life when faced in CQC. You can lean around corners without fully exposing yourself to enemy fire.
Revision 2 will be the finalized version. When time becomes available, Revision 3 will be available as an optional download.
Revision 3 will try to reduce the filesize as much as possible, as well as add custom sounds for the weapons, and add a few rebalances, such as more predictable recoil patterns, akin to games such as Insurgency and Rainbow Six: Vegas.
- The cs_office, cs_assault, and the custom hostage maps are incompatable at the moment.
DOWNLOAD REVISION 2! IT FIXES MOST CURRENTLY-KNOWN BUGS! Thanks to russiantux for helping me find the bugs.
I do not take credit for SMOD, SMOD Tactical: Project Life, or SMOD Tactical. They belong to their respective owners. I just uploaded this to satisfy people who loved the original SMOD Tactical. Get these fantastic mods here:
Hi guys, me and Vorcheskivan have noticed that a lot of you guys enjoy the mod, however as reported with numerous players that the mod is extremely unstable. We are aware of this, and sadly we really can't do much about it. We can change the maps, sounds, models, etc., but the core mod itself is unchangeable. We currently (at the time of typing this) do not have access to the source code for the mod, and as a result , these bugs plaque the game, including : random crashes at random times , and certain maps not working properly. I've been trying to contact the original maker of SMOD and SMOD Tactical, but at the moment, I haven't heard anything from them yet. The only temporary solution I can give you guys at the moment is to just press F5 every so often. As soon as I got in contact with the original makers and obtain the source code, I'll make a edit here.

Any differents from SMOD:Tactical?
i dont think theres a difference, it just fixes all the missing textures, crashes, etc.
Thank you for keeping my mod alive! :)
MAY IT LIVE FOREVERRRR!!! This was always one of my favorite game experiences period.
Its still terrible though what the hell happened it used to look allot cooler what happened?
If I load up any cs:s map, I immediately die and the game says the hostages were killed even though I just loaded the map up, Is there a fix for this?
Well.. at least someone was able to do something with it for a little.

How did you fix the shiny AK-47 receiver?
to enable console , remove the line {unbindall} from {config.cfg} in {cfg} folder.
