Strider Mountain mod for Half-Life 2

Best mod ever played :)

thank you so much Obsidian for the nice compliment.
and your right, the voice acting was not that good indeed.

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)

Ok, so I'm really interested in playing this mod, but I cannot get the game to play. Literally, there is no play button, just stress test, options & quit. This is the first time Ive had this issue and have not been able to find an answer online. Also your forums are throwing several php errors and not allowing me to look there for answers.

STRIDER MOUNTAIN ON MODDB DOES WORK,
(please read below for more info)

this proves to NEVER write when you are mad!!!

When it would have been possible to delete my last 4 comments here then i would have done so, (i tried but it isn't possible anymore now).

Thing is, i made the mistake that caused all this confusion, This time it is not Valve or the Source engines it fault, or a update from it.

The Strider Mountain version here on Moddb does work like it should. But, 4 days ago Strider Mountain as released on Desura, and THAT version didn't work. The comments of TheANgryMan and Yanf777 are right, but where not placed here but on Desura, (and those comment are mixed with the ones here on Moddb, and the other way around).
I have sent you both a pm with the explanation and my apologies for all the trouble, and a link to here and this working version of SM, and the request if you would like to consider to give this mod another try.

So, forget what i said in the last 4 comments of mine here, SM has been taken down from Desura and will be replaced soon with a working version of SM. The SM version here on Moddb is SM v.3, but we have a newer version that will be called v.3.1 or v.4.0. And as soon as that one is finished it will be uploaded to Desura and to here on Moddb.

FOR NOW; THIS STRIDER MOUNTAIN HERE ON MODDB.COM IS WORKING WELL, IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED IT BY NOW THEN PLEASE GIVE IT A TRY. IT WILL GIVE YOU AROUND 10 TO 14 HOURS AT LEAST OF GAMEPLAY FUN.

sorry for all the mistakes, all is fine now again.

I'm having a problem with the intro cinematic, the camera keeps going out of the map near the end and preventing the level from starting!
