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

I just rush to crowbar and run all the way back to beat the shit out of all guard included

[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;52419162]I just wish they gave him a cheat handgun or put a flag on him so that he kills everything in 2-4 hits or something. That part is so slow because it takes forever for him to kill all the zombies, it's almost faster to just throw wastebaskets at them.[/QUOTE] Pistol guards already does 12 damage per shot, so they actually do kill zombies in 5 shots. If anything, it should be nerfed down to player damage. Also I've been saying this for years now, but they really need to buff the revolver guard damage at[I] least somewhat [/I]if they want him to be as useful as the pistol guard.

[QUOTE=MrDrToaster;52418886]My biggest gripe with Black Mesa is the changed weapon introductions (getting the pistol later and getting the .357 instead of the shotgun)[/QUOTE] Those were all improvements. Especially the crowbar intro.

[QUOTE=TextFAMGUY1;52392681]We're considering doing a pass to go over the Earthbound outdoor areas once more later on, but it's dependant on A LOT of things so I can't really tell you for sure if it will happen or not, or what what pass would even entail when we got to it.[/QUOTE] Do you think it'd be possible have some one go over the older weapon materials as well? It's mostly just small things with the normal maps like them possibly being desynced [t]http://i.imgur.com/O87aF92.png[/t][t]http://i.imgur.com/eo6xwuE.png[/t] Or an inverted green channel [t]http://i.imgur.com/T5w51pX.png[/t][t]http://i.imgur.com/YYMRbM6.png[/t] There's also what ever's going on with the w_egon_pickup's normal [t]http://i.imgur.com/SVZTVdt.png[/t] There's a few other things like the phong for the w_grenade_mp model and w_longjump's normal map having seams all over it.

Got the retail on sale and immediately went on some classic subtransit game I fondly remember. [media]https://youtu.be/Cvo453ESAeU[/media] [media]https://youtu.be/TSQusMObm9k[/media]

I'm of the opinion that tripmines make a game 100x more fun, especially in MP

[QUOTE=Gentleman Cat;52431515]They Hunger remake in Black Mesa, pls[/QUOTE] Well there was actually a they hunger remake in source [URL="http://www.moddb.com/mods/they-hunger-again/images/mistic-area#imagebox"]http://www.moddb.com/mods/they-hunger-again/images/mistic-area#imagebox[/URL] but I've gotta warn you, it was made by some pretty inexperienced devs and it's not very good.

I was looking through some old demos and found this recording where the props glitch out: [video=youtube;IBNn1JZMbo8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBNn1JZMbo8[/video] Is this a common thing? I found one post about it but nothing else.

I remember that used to happen in HL2DM back in like 2007, and even in Half-Life 2, it's a Source bug I'm guessing. Not sure why it does it maybe someone else knows.

I never saw that houndeye again.

I remember that happening to me in Garry's mod years back, never figured out what caused it.

its inspired by the original HL1 version.

^ What he said. The Shotgun in Half-Life was really loosely based off the SPAS-12, but the real SPAS-12 came from the HD Pack on Playstation 2 and released with Blue Shift and Opposing Fronts.

I prefer the fictitious hl1 shotgun. I don't like the SPAS-12's stock

What does the spas 12 stock even look like? You don't really see it in game.

[QUOTE=Mort Stroodle;52449377]What does the spas 12 stock even look like? You don't really see it in game.[/QUOTE] On the HD pack model it's folded up on top on the barrel.

[QUOTE=Mort Stroodle;52449377]What does the spas 12 stock even look like? You don't really see it in game.[/QUOTE] If you mean in the original games and the non HD version it was a stockless one. HD had the folding stock and was folded up.

Cross-post from the bm forums [QUOTE=Old Hermit]In addition to the weapon bucket icons, I've been working on making ammo icons to match the models used in Juniez' pack. [img]http://i.imgur.com/jclUIO2.png[/img] It's going alright so far, but I've run into an issue that's been bothering me. The generic ammo icons are used both for ammo counts and for pickups alike. [img]http://i.imgur.com/3eK9hL3.png[/img] In vanilla BM, this isn't really an issue as they decided to use images of the ammo's world models, meaning they're all in boxes or canisters for the most part. In short I'm trying to allow for the CHudItemPickup field to use separate vtf's from CHudWeaponPrimaryAmmo and CHudWeaponSecondaryAmmo, where applicable. Problem being I can't make heads or tails of source's UI framework. Anyone think they could lend me a hand?[/QUOTE] Any takers?

I never really liked the vanilla Black Mesa HECU. They looked way too tacticool for my taste. I've taken the liberty to reskinning Simkas' early 2000s US military models. They look so much closer to the original looks.

Finally someone did something that is close to a PCV.

I liked how the realistic vests looked, but even back then I was kinda miffed that they didn't include the PCV as the standard armor for the HECU dudes. I'd love an actual model that uses the PCV (Romka's grunts aside)

Why not base it on any other Source engine game that is moddable?

I think the HECU redesign was fine, the HECU in HL1 were just designed as generic military guys. The type of armor and even the name and branch were never hinted at until OP4 came out. I like the helmets on the alternative models though, I might just use both if the textures don't clash too much. I did get Romka's working in-game awhile back but I wasn't allowed to release them at the time, and the stylistic differences between Romka's models and Black Mesa's was pretty huge. If I did go for a full replacement release I probably would have just made 80% of the grunts the gasmask model to hide the fact that there was little variety in faces.
