It has been 2 years since this mod got released, so I wanted to somehow celebrate it. The only way I can think of how, is to show you ModDB members, who might have missed this mod, that it exists! As it has been Halloween, I thought that this would be quite interesting to post, as this is a horror mod. Well fitting for this kind of weather and atmosphere that is going on right now.
Some quick info about the mod:
You play a guy named David, who is a drug-addict. He can no longer stand it out, so he decides to seek help at a hospital. When he's there, as addicted he is, he goes into a restroom and takes some more pills. But this time, it goes very wrong. From the pills you take, you start to experience hallucinations, and those hallucinations are your enemies. But you can't stop take the pills, because then you will die.
The mod has four different endings and altarnate routes, which makes it interesting to replay it. And if you see all those endings, you will be rewarded with a secret neat item. There are also plenty of secret hidden things that you can find.
You can download this mod here:
With good things comes even better things
As you might understand, this mod is an improvement of the older version Afraid of Monsters. I made Afraid of Monsters alone, so it didn't turn out that well. So with Afraid of Monsters: Director's Cut, I got help from James Marchant, Minuit, with very much things.
You can find Afraid of Monsters here:
Currently, me and James and some other people, are working with a new Half-Life 1 horror mod called Cry of Fear. It has the same theme, and we think you might like it if you like this mod.

Error fix
I know some people have complained about an error which says: "Cache_TryAlloc: 12708976 is greater than free hunk" There is a simple fix to that error if you're using Steam. Right click the game in Steam, click properties, click "Set Launch Options", then type;
"-heapsize 512000"
Co-op
There is one more thing I would like to say before this news ends, and that is; how many people would like to see a proper Co-op "expansion" to this mod? If you want, we might be able to make it. That was it for this news. I hope you like Afraid of Monsters: Director's Cut, and my other upcoming project.

Awesome! Co-Op would be awesome too!
Theres a Co-Op server in Svencoop 1.7, You can't miss it.
You mean Sven Co-op 4.09, right?
Man! AOM: DC IS AWESOME! I beat the game, weird ending when you have to fight a copy of yourself as a zombie. Lol, I was playing today, and I nearly died at the part when you are in a tunnel and its soooo dark! I ran out of batteries SO MUCH TIMES! I also had to use cheats to get through that part. I used only GodMode. Also, can you please make a Afraid of Monsters 2: Directors cut? Or is Cry of Fear the game? I watched the Cry of Fear Gameplays, it has fast moving zombies. It looks like a sequel. The game Mistake was scary, just as much as this one. The first zombies you find are slow ones. Next are the fast ones. The game was short, but fun, just as much as this one. Cry of Fear also looks so complicated. With the inventory and everything. I'm sure I'll figure everything out though. :) Someone is also making a Fan-Made mod called afraid of monsters 2. I saw it here on www.Moddb.com . Also, the fast moving zombies is a super great touch! I really like it! The part that really got me scared is when your in a tunnel and you need to open a gate. While your in the tunnel, you see a button near a dead guy, once you pressed it, the dead guy AWAKENED AND IT WAS PUSHING YOU INTO SPIKES! When I was first at that part, I was like HOLY CRAP, OH NO! HOLY MOLLY! AHHHH! CRAP!!!! THAT PART MADE ME SOOOO SCARED! Wow... I just made a paragraph, I didn't mean to. Lol. I have nothing else to say now. Wait! One more thing! How bout' a Afraid of monsters: Source? That would be great! :)
Spoiler bro.
******* SPOILER ALERT?!?!?!
Co-op = awesome
I guess... Co-op wins
wee co-op!!
Co-op sounds great.
It would be full of Awesome-ly-noss-some-ness.
I don't have Half-Life 1! *sob*
Will have to get it ASAP (unfortunately, as implied, that won't be quick) to play this.
(buried)
Visit The Pirate Bay to get your self a Half Life copy.
Coop would be fantastic! Hope you guys decide to implement it :D
Coop + 1
I think coop would be great, maybe it could be a Sven Coop addon like They Hunger Coop? New weapons and all? Also who remembers playing this master piece two years ago? I do and I was scarred shitless. Happy two late years!
I would really like a proper co-op of AoM DC. The Sven Co-op version isn't really that great without the new HUD and batteries and the weapons and all other custom things.
I also wish there would be some boss fights of some sort.
There are boss fights, although only one of them could be considered a proper one. The bosses are the aforementioned clone and the "monster mashes."
The Sven Co-op version of was a mess, but quite fun though. But still, I prefer playing a more decent co-op mode with a more survival feeling.
Yeah co-op would totally rock ! Played the sven co-op version, but that wasent so great due to lots of bugs and scenario skipping.
Absolutely support the co-op idea!
Make it coop! The old (Ice Blue Deer) Cocyx the skeleton will finally go down!
They are all right:make a co-op version.But take care to work on the maps again,in order to make the mod impossible to be played by one player(like the Sven co-op Escape series).
U mean like a limit for spawn and not unlimited to a point in the map?
I mean places where one player must crouch and the other to climb on him in order to reach the next area,or where only two players can open the door e.t.c.
It would be awesome with co-op in this mod
I see that you seem pretty interested in a Co-op version. What we would fix in that version is proper keys, spawns, balanced items and monsters and a proper story so it makes sense. Also you will keep your weapons and items that you had from the previous maps.
I think Steam still has it for $.98.
Coop would be great, but not in mindless shooter sven-coop way. ^^
I have a lot of ideas for a storyline of Afraid of Monsters Co-op. When I can I will send them to ruMpel and Minuit.
i think co-op actually in the game would be better than that old sven co-op server for AOM DC
It's kind of funny how the whole page is wanting COOP for this game XD. But anyway, I think it'd be cooler than playing on Sven Coop with that **** of an admin IceBlueDeer(Cocyx)
Yes! Go for coop! Yaay!
Coop borde varje hl mod ha!
I would REALLY love a Co-op. I'm tracking this mod now that I'm a moddb member...I better see co-op soon!
Yes ! Please release Coop version ! I dont want to play it in svencoop with cutoff 70% models, sprites and sounds ! Plus ping on this server is about 180 -200 !! Just imagine how it lags ! So please ! Me and my friends that honorobly love your scary mod would like to play together with proper pings and full version of the game with all 4 endings !
P.S. we even acquired secret in this game.. it has something with game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. isnt it ? ;)
i've tried typing that into the launch settings on steam, and when i go to finish the nightmare level and start the hospital level, it crashes and still gives me that error, help anyone??
how can I fix the Cache_TryAlloc: 12708976 is greater than free hunk error on the version i have that's not on steam?
Y i have the same problem as Toshiro.
I didnt pirate tho I have one of the oldest copies of halflife when it first came out and the game key doesnt work with steam :(
I have somewhat of the same problem as Toshiro except I have steam and half life 1 on it and i also put the code in the set launch prompt. I'd really like some help on this one :/
