The Trap Patch v1.2
Nov 01, 2008 Patch 1 commentHALF LIFE: THE TRAP - Patch v1.2 Install: Put "the_trap" folder into your Half-Life directory and make the replacement of files.
Welcome to the Trap complex. Here, you will be subjected to numerous tests for dexterity and ingenuity. Please do not try to leave the elevator before it stops… The goal of your mission is to leave the trap and receive an award. Each section will consist of several chambers, in each chamber you will find the portal capable to transfer you into the next chamber. At the end of each section you will receive a subject, without which it is impossible to continue the test. Attention! Your safety is not guaranteed. No one will find you if you are injured or dying, except other testers. Good luck!
The Trap is:
1. The atmosphere of Valve's Portal game.
2. Many incredible puzzles.
2. Voice recorded characters.
4. A long time to the end.
5. Noclip cheat protection.
6. The Trap for your brain.

Looking for a challenge? The Trap, released in July 2008, may just be what you seek! Filled with dozens of tough puzzles coupled with neat leveldesign, this Half-Life modification will surely test your limits and entertain you along the way! Reaktor, the creator of The Trap, was kind enough to spend some time answering a few questions about the mod and himself in general.

Dear Reaktor;
That's what I call a MODIFICATION. The second best HL mod ever created. (The first is Paranoia. I'm very very sorry.) But still, it's a FANTASTIC JOB MAN!
Now, I'm asking this: Will you make the second one? Because I think this was not enough for me, now I still want to play the trap but it's too boring to pass all those levels again and again.
Thank you for this realm...
This really is a fantastic mod. Simple yet challenging, with a good mix of puzzles.
My only gripe is that it frequently calls me a cheater. Actually, it says "DIE CHITER" and kills me when I reach the end. I realize this is supposed to protect against people using noclip to skip puzzles, but unfortunately it also kills those of us who solve puzzles in our own, different ways.
A few examples: (spoiler alert)
1) The puzzle where there are three smashers going up and down together, and you're supposed to block them off with boxes, run across and retrieve the crowbar. My solution was to turn the fan on and time my jump so that I launched across the platform on its way up and slid to the crowbar. Had to redo the whole level after figuring out the moving platforms made the game think I'd cheated.
2) The puzzle with the plank that breaks when walking to the big power button (I think it's 4a) features a giant box with buttons to move it in different directions. I was able to hit the button and run around the fence fast enough to get to the far side before it did, then used the button to position it for the jump to the power button on the wall. Apparently this lets you skip a section of the puzzle, because I still had an extra green wire with me when I approached the exit and the game murdered me.
AFAIK noclip is already a non-functioning command in this game, so is there any way a patch could be released that would fix this aggravating behavior?
Anyway, aside from the notable frustration of reaching the end only to find out that I haven't solved it in the way the author thought I should, this really is an enjoyable mod despite running on the older Goldsrc engine, and I'd recommend it to anyone who likes some mental stimulation.
What to do on 5 c after "the Boss"?
Iv'e got the red wire from the glass box and applied it to the **** that doesn't turn on?
Hey ! Nice mod here , im currently at Chapter 6 , Chamber 3 in it :)
