(NEW) Strider Mountain Version 3
Nov 28, 2009 Full Version 14 commentsThere were several overlooked mistakes and bugs with the initial release but now in version 3 there have been many improvements. Read More for Change...
AT 30,000 FEET... you are almost 6 miles (9.7 km's) above sea level. The human body is not made for these conditions. Temperatures can plummet to -60F (-51C), the brain is starved for oxygen and each step is a new experience in pure agony. It's difficult to breathe. It's difficult to think. It's difficult to move. And you still have to endure another 444 feet (0.14 km's) to get to the peak. So much for the good news.
STORYLINE: SURVIVE the SUMMIT ...The rebels are losing the battle against the strider onslaught that keeps growing. To help turn the tide of war you need to destroy the source of the Striders. That source is at the summit of what the rebels call, StriderMountain. There is only one way to get into the mountain geography and it's extremely dangerous terrain. The danger proves to be too much and you are forced way off target. Now, you must fight your way through the Combine Mountain Base Camp because it's the only entry to the mountain. As Gordon Freeman, you must survive the summit and destroy the source of the Striders.

thanks you guys, for the nice compliment.
should you want to play any of the other HL2 sp-mods we made then please check the Mod button on top and you find the 4 other ones.
And, in about 2 months time i will release my latest sp-mod for HL2 ep2, that i have been working on for the last 2+ years, called;
HL2 Episode 3, (the CLosure).

I must say this is a damn good mod. Sure, the map quality is HL1-esque, and the cinematics are somewhat annoying to sit through more than once, but the sheer size and gameplay make up for this.
I'm puzzled by the, ah, lack of puzzles, however. By which I mean non-combat puzzles.
Anyway, good job.
I'm still playing it. This mod is HUGE!!!
I have been playing for many hours, and I'm still at Garrison, barely a fifth of the whole trip. This seem as long as a full HL2 Episode.
Despite some minor quirks (voices, animations), this is high quality stuff. Gameplay is very good, map design goes from good to excellent, difficulty is just right.
I'm planning to give it a 8.5 vote. :-)
thank you guys, am always very pleased to read comments here,
and specially when they are like yours.
Thanks!

Still working my way through this; while the english is a bit sketchy at times, and the voice acting rough (I'm sorry, but it shows that the voice actors aren't pros, just being honest), the gameplay is absolutely solid. I'm really, really enjoying this so far - as a mod, it /shines/. Far better than many full-fledged AAA titles I've encountered, and I mean that.
To the voice actors, keep trying; you'll get better the longer you work at it!
I am sorry Batlas, that you have these troubles with SM. We are not sure what have caused these problems with the version you are playing. Like TB said could it be caused by the latest Valve update from a few days ago, that messed up lots of games and editors big time. (couldn't map for 3 whole days on my newest HL2 ep2 SP-mod called Rooftop Retreat, that can also be found here on Moddb). But it could also be that you are playing a old beta version of SM that has many issues in it. that wrong beta version of SM was available for 2 days or so on Desura.com and has been taken down again a week ago or so.
On BF.com there is the latest version of SM, that is SM 3.1.
I just checked to see if that version has now issues because of the new valve update and that isn't the case. It works perfectly. I hope you don't mind to download that version, then you can play SM.
we have made severel other big HL2 sp-mods that you maybe are not familiar with, should you be interested in them then please watch here,
(except Hypercube, that one was a solo project of Cubedude89);
Moddb.com
and for the SM 3.1 version please download here,(maybe you have to regestrate first to the site, hope you don't mind);

(i will also sent this answer of mine as a pm to you)
There was a Steam update that was giving the SM mod an issue. We are looking into this for you. Also, since it's been 2 years since the mod release, the forums don't get much traffic so we closed the site. The team has a site at Balticforever.com so feel free to stop by.
