Is this still being worked on? It would be really cool to see a continuation of this mod. Chapter 2 or something.

My honest opinion about this is it's a good start. It's a solid start. I was really confused about a lot of stuff, but overall I think with some tweaking, this could be a really great mod. Here is my video on the mod.

This is because the suit is needed to switch weapons and the vortigaunt cut scene will always play at the start of a save, but your character will be where you saved it at.

Just played through the whole demo and I got some questions. Why is there an autoexe.cfg file resetting all my settings? Why does the vortigaunt cut scene appear after a save reload? Why did I have to hit the generator with a crowbar instead of just pressing +use on it?

My review: Needs a lot of work. Bare bones map with very little detail. Took me forever to figure it out, but I can speed through it in less than like 5 minutes now. The suit button needs reworking as if the player doesn't touch the suit, and the door closes, there is no way to open it back up. It also took me forever to figure out the keypad puzzle. Again, I think I broke it because even if I used console commands to +use the button, the gate wouldn't open.

Finally, the power box puzzle is impossible to know unless the player already knows about it or just happens upon it by mistake.

I hate to be the angry critic here, but this map needs a lot of work.

Edit: Here's the video Youtube.com

I posted a similar file on the main page of the mod. I didn't realize I could do that.

I was able to update this mod to the latest version of the SDK 2013. Moddb.com

Oh sweet! This looks incredible!

This is really well done *visually*. I love the cold,blue lighting and the sound effects are amazing. However, I noticed this mod is using hl2 beta content, so technically this mod is using illegal content that was stolen.

The first door wouldn't open for me, but I just used noclip to get past it. The gameplay from there on was pretty good until I got to an elevator with two fuses. I spent about 30 minutes total looking for them until I ran out of time.

Edit: It's located in the red cabinet on the first floor.

Overall, could use some bug fixing, but great start to the mod.

Edit: I should also mention the download is 2GB, but after uncompressing, the archive, it was just over 5GB of content. This includes unnecessary save files and screenshots with most of the 5B coming from the mod itself and not mapbase.

Not much in terms of gameplay, but I love the liminal vibe going on. Especially "lot.bsp". Keep it up. It's so cool to see liminality in video games.

I am not sure if this helps, but I never had problems with any mods. Try to use the latest version of the SDK2013 and set the branch to upcoming.
