Black Mesa V6 - 'Not sure about the shotgun'-edition - Games

Hey, odd question, but is multiplayer broken for anyone else? I was testing some shit and decided to check online compatability, and my game either freezes or CTD's any time I try to connect to any server. I even did a clean install with no unofficial content mixed in. It's not a dealbreaker because I never play multiplayer anyway, but I'm concerned this might be an issue for other people.

Does anybody else experience fps drops with CSM enabled? My framerate tends to drop to around 20-30 fps using CSM, particularly when I play the uncut surface tension maps and moreso when there are a lot of NPCs interacting with one another. other than that I usually get a decent 60 (maybe with some slight dips here and there but nothing really noticable). I can max out every other aspect of the game but disabling CSM gives me a significant fps boost. I'd post this on the Bug Reporting forum but I'm not really sure how to make a new thread.

I don't know if anyone follows the team of Black Mesa on Instagram, but just recently they've posted a [URL="https://i.imgur.com/zAnecV8.jpg"]new screenshot of Xen.[/URL] Source: [url]https://www.instagram.com/p/BTrxfD1jTjC/[/url] [b]Warning:[/b] This may contain spoilers.

And to me its look just very minor to nonexistent spoiler than anything else.

Why did you embed the image when varg specifically didn't embed it because possible spoilers?

is that ingame? looks like art

Well it is heavily edited.

It certainly does remind me of that microscopic look they were going for in hl1 skyboxes.

Can't see shit

I think that is the point.

Can't wait for the game to be finished [editline]17th May 2017[/editline] I'm about 2/5 of the way and I'm holding for Xen to be put in

-snip-

I wonder if they will add that part of the resonance cascade teleport sequence back in, or if Xen will be left as a complete surprise.

[QUOTE=Cows Rule;52242270]I wonder if they will add that part of the resonance cascade teleport sequence back in, or if Xen will be left as a complete surprise.[/QUOTE] Well, they do still have the Snark / Headcrab room in QE, so I'd imagine some additional in-game teasing wouldn't be too out of the question

[QUOTE=Old Hermit;52247730]Well, they do still have the Snark / Headcrab room in QE, so I'd imagine some additional in-game teasing wouldn't be too out of the question[/QUOTE] they'll most likely redo an art pass of that room

They actually said those rooms were recreations, and everything in the rooms is from Earth, except the specimens themselves. So no need to change it.

Game Zombie is the black mesa reanimation dead?

[QUOTE=Cryoshell;52284102]Game Zombie is the black mesa reanimation dead?[/QUOTE] [t]http://i.imgur.com/y2HISqR.png[/t] It's not dead just progress has been slow since I've been out of town and working on other projects as well.

Would any devs happen to know why there's newer agrunt materials/model currently unused in the game files [t]http://i.imgur.com/7omiteX.png[/t] And better yet why he doesn't have an ass [t]http://i.imgur.com/J1TnYxk.png[/t]

We aliens have evolved past the need for asses

[QUOTE=Breastigator;52307212]We aliens have evolved past the need for asses[/QUOTE] What about genitals [t]http://i.imgur.com/DWk7VSS.png[/t]

[QUOTE=Old Hermit;52307250]What about genitals [t]http://i.imgur.com/DWk7VSS.png[/t][/QUOTE] It's a interpretative metaphor, a visible representation of being able to provide an outlet to see how hollow they really are on the inside, only bred to kill and not to feel remorse or feeling of any kind.

[QUOTE=Old Hermit;52307125] And better yet why he doesn't have an ass[/QUOTE] Idk, he got a cute booty tho [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/zLTfn72.png[/IMG] Also [unrelated] has anybody experienced oversized weapon particles since the last update? It seems to just be the bullet tracers that are oversized, the muzzleflashes are fine tho [IMG]blob:http://imgur.com/0cde97f3-f744-43e6-b5d2-0c19caa6feef[/IMG]
