II. About UnderHell
============================
In Underhell, you incarnate Jake Hawkfield, a Special Weapons and Tactics Operative, who recently got married and moved in with his beloved wife.
But soon after those happy events his beloved wife dies in mysterious circumstances, only leaving clues that lead to believe in a suicide. Jake falls apart, and only his best friend, mentor and boss Frank is here to help him get over his grief.
The mod begins with a wake up call from Frank, ordering Jake to come down to the station.An armed group of elite soldiers have taken contol of a hospital and all it’s personnel.
But Jake will soon realize that it is not a common Hostage Situation…
---------------------------
.THE HOUSE.
---------------------------
The House acts as the HUB for the mod, you can come back to it anytime via a special button on the Main Menu, every time you do something in The House it will save your progress.
If you start The House via the Chapter Selection menu it will completely reset everything in The House and you will lose your progress.
When you are in the house, you can check your Emails, your Mail Box, answer the phone when it rings or just explore and try to uncover the mysteries that lurk in there.
Even though Jake's Wife has recently passed away, you are not completely alone...
---------------------------
.THE GAME.
---------------------------
UnderHell is split in 3 different "zones"
The first is The House, each new chapter will have it's own version of The House, with different puzzles, different things to discover and diary pages to find.
The second, are The Dreams, with each version of The House will come a set of dreams, only accessible via the Bed in The House, during the night.
Dreams will give you bits of information about the story, and might help you understand some future events better.
Dreams are not mandatory, meaning you can finish the mod without playing through them.
The third zone, are the Chapters, where Underhell really takes place, you access a chapter via The House, and when you are done with the chapters you come back to The House.
When everything has been done in the Chapters and in The House, you must go to sleep in order to access the next version of the house.
That is, when it will be released of course...

Latest News: Underhell Chapter 1 Trailer
12 comments by Mxthe on Dec 6th, 2011
Hello there!
It has now been 9 months since the Prologue was released and the Production on Chapter 1 began, and now I can honestly say that this is a really big and ambitious project.
Saying that beforehand might seem like a boast, but when it's actually being done and over 60% completion it's just saying what is.
First things first, Chapter 1's release will come with a Remake of the Prologue, since the game is being ported over to the Orange Box, it just seemed like the best idea, it also allows me to fix some issues with the Prologue and add some things into it such as:
- A brand new tutorial featuring "Jake's SWAT Training"
- New events in The House + Weather effects and HDR
- Improved system for the Diary and the Mails
- Improved Day/Night cycle + Clock actually tells the time
- A Dream Catcher to avoid the Dream World
All the improvements will of course be present in the Chapter 1 house and every new iteration of The House.
Throughout the production, many people contacted me asking questions about the mod, and in a way I feel flattered, but many of the questions were spoiler related or numbers related, (ie. percentage of completion, number of levels finished, hours of gameplay ect...)
Well here's a simple fact about estimated numbers, they are inaccurate.
But I have been cleaning my folders and organizing the mod to try to make those "number lovers" happy, and here are the numbers (so far) :
12 voice actors
1682 lines of dialogue
31 maps
1 Level Designer
16 Important characters
17 weapons
37 Contributors
16 749 files
563 folders
1.97 GB (Uncompressed)
784 MB (Compressed)
So there you go, those numbers include the Prologue and Chapter 1, so if you compare the size of the Prologue (507 MB) to the size of the Chapter 1 + Prologue Remake (784 MB), you get a very nice value.
But enough chit chat, you are here for the trailer, there it is, enjoy:

can someone help me whenever i get in the lift in the hospital the game crashes other than that what i played its a great game
amazing mod, probably my favorite. Could you fix the field of view for the weapon? I personally think its too close and blocks most of the view.
The old source engine had a locked fov of 75, Orange Box adds a slider for that in the Video options.
Look for it in the next release.
Is the bloom effect somehow locked? I can't seem to disable it. My pc kinda old and it lags when there's some bloom effect or whatever but in normal hl2 setting it's ok. Anyway way to do that?
Btw - Really cool mod that uses one of the greatest underground hl2 mod ever....SMOD!!! So love this mod really glad you integrated it to your mod. Iron SIghts Rules hehe!!!
The bloom in the Prologue is an SMOD shader, simple console command.
r_smod_bloom_amount "X" where X is the intensity.
got it...will try it. tnx for the tip.
do you think you'll manage to release the mod exactly one year after, on march 5th 2012?
Being released in march I hope not after the 6th because that's my birthday :D
Neat mod
I loved the NLH letter and email.
