Operation: Black Mesa is a total Source remake of Half Life: Opposing Force. Using the Source engine, the developers plan to recreate the Black Mesa research Facility as it was seen by Corporal Adrian Shephard of the H.E.C.U. Half-life: Opposing Force is still an amazing game, although it is not nearly as amazing as it was when it was released.

Near the end, right before you go into the ruins area and right after the sewage output area.

The model is nice & all but one major problem the mortar round don't look like real mortar round they look like rounds for a naval gun.

Here are some examples of real mortar round

81mm mortar types since the size of the rounds shown look to be either 60 or 81mm rounds in terms of size.

Top one is HE, middle is white phosphorous, & bottom is illumination.

If you were going for a heavy mortar then here are some 120mm mortar rounds.

HE live round with SABOT cylinder type thing on the bottom, but yea that's what the live ones look like.

You should totaly work for a mod, helping modders out with realism aspects of the mod.

xD thanks alot. But my modding talent are limited to 2D games like CS2D & HL2D. Im still trying to learn how to properly model with XSI so maybe in the future ill also be able to provide 100% realistic weapon & model prefabs for mods to use :)

It doesn't look right, the original was more like a cannon, and it was black. This shouldn't like like something left out of WWW1, especially since the game takes place somewhere in 20XX aka Modern times.
