New version with a hotfix. I am delighted to announce the release of this big update, which I have been working on for several months. It was a challenging project that consumed most of my spare time...
New fixed installer
I've been reported a lot about a virus, included in installer. Well it might happen because I used third party software to make a custom launcher for this (instead of bat file). It's up to you, download my mod or not, but consider this - I spent about half a year to infect your pc… right? Anyway, it's fixed with new version!
It's about time
I am delighted to announce the release of this big update, which I have been working on for several months. It was a challenging project that consumed most of my spare time.

The update offers about two hours of gameplay in total. Please enjoy, left comments, report bugs)

its normal to get the outer canals and its lag so bad it crash the game? overall really good mod
Outer canals is relatively big map and due to engine unoptimization frames drops pretty much. I hope you've finished it without crashes)
Hi I have little problem, because the game only starts from the installation process when it tries to enter normally, i.e. via the desktop icon or launcher.bat, the game crashes when loading the map from the menu. plese tell me how to fix it. I know it is old Beta leaked source.
Try run as admin with XP compability, install DirectX9
Need your help, It seems resolution is too big it cant fit my desktop resolution so now i even cant press anything.
I guess you need to find a settings config file and delete it or you can use this solution Hl2-beta.ru
but i dont know where that file is
Do I really need to tell you about windows search?)
is this a virus?
No)
why this mod doesn't show up on steam library? and if i try to open it manually my windows antivirus says that this file have a virus on it please give me solutions
Please read mod description and articles, all your questions already explained
Is this finished?
Not yet)
Quick question, is this a mod for Half-Life 2? If it is, if there any exe file we have to execute? I'd love to port this for Source Engine: Android if there is no needed exe file execution. Even if there is, I'll ask a good SE:A modder for a little help and it could be done. We'll credit You if We happen to port it correctly withh playability :)
Please DM me for further details
i downloaded the files but how do i activate
Launch installer and then play)

Wow, this is amazing! Man, I love seeing stuff like this. Thank you for working on something like this, sir!
And I love to see people playing it)
There is a few more maps still to come, stay tuned, and thank you)
at the end of terminal with those little fly guys once the screen fades to black and it starts loading the next map the game crashes when it says initializing world every single time i try to load it
Did you try to load e3_lab map directly from console?
Hey, is normal when i go pick the H.E.V Suit, i die.
Is normal this?
Nope. Which map? The only hev avaliable is on e3_lab and you don't need to pick it up. I just forgot to remove it.

every time i alt-tab to another window and come back it says its loading and it never goes away
It's well known bug. This is engine problem so I can't fix it, sorry
Man, a lot of idiots in this comment section. Any update on this mod?
We have what we have, lot of people doesn't bother to read mod description or readme. As for updates, RC5 in progress. It will contain 3 new maps and refinement for all others, based on community feedback.
why are there invisible walls
Obviously they here to point where you don't need to go)
Hi, Are there any plans for this mod to have a full story line from the 2002 beta?
I've thought about that a couple of times. But this project will be too ambitious. Half-Life 2 is not only about the maps my friend. This idea brings questions. What about scripted scenes? Voice acting? Fun gameplay according story? Maybe I need to transfer every beta thing to retail? How much time it takes?
The leaked build contains a very small bit of this fun and cool real Valve stuff. And I think it is better to create a small but concentrated experience according maps we have for 2002
