For all those Half life 2 lovers out there, Black Mesa is a mod to bring the first game into the updated source engine. It is looking quite amazing and has been in production for years I have been wanting this for quite some time!

by DrHaX Sun 2 Sep - 14:40:20

The Source remake of the original Half-Life, it's finally coming, they've done a countdown clock on their webpage www.blackmesasource.com
12 Days to go ! This is going to be great to play again, since that the next year Valve will probably release the next sequel for the long running series!
You can check out their mod at that website or at their youtube : https://www.youtube.com/user/blackmesasourcemedia?feature=results_main
So great...

I remember first seeing this in 2008 and I was like yay! then 2009 christmas came round and I was like OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG, then it got delayed, every year i've checked and then I thought, f**k this its never coming out and when it does I bet it'll be poop but finally its coming.

When I saw that this morning I was like fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck yeahhhh but im waiting for them to correct the typo "days" to "Weeks" XD

As soon as there's going to be a new version of PR, I'm going to have the similiar response

To bad it is only a short part of HL1 on the first release... and that after 8 years of work

by **TheShaydeeOne** Mon 3 Sep - 13:02:25

Haven't they said they've got it all done up to when you enter xen properly?

by **speedhound1-WYD-** Mon 3 Sep - 14:56:45

honestly ? it's one thing to play space invaders for that 'retro hit' but looking forward to the past is a confusing contradiction that might upset your space time continuum Shocked

i know fil i know, be careful children of the future alian

by **deadly22sniper** Fri 7 Sep - 21:10:03

Wow! I can't believe they're actually doing a release at long last!

by **Da-Fort** Sat 8 Sep - 12:09:50

I hope I can download it next week as it hits. These big mods usually attract a lot of attention and the servers overload after a couple of minutes.

by **Viglen** Fri 14 Sep - 15:47:52

Aaaaaaand the website crashed lol

by Jay Scott Fri 14 Sep - 15:49:20

Lmao FAIL!

by **Viglen** Fri 14 Sep - 15:56:04

Its so stupid to have a countdown like that servers are just not going to be able to support the rush hence why PR and other mods offer a pass worded preload a week beforehand

confused

by Jay Scott Fri 14 Sep - 16:01:15

Its mad isnt it even big computer nerds are still f*****g mongy sometimes.

My bug report to Black Mesa devs

Hey guys, just thought i'd report a bug in my opinion.

As you can see, the pump is on yet I have the handle in my hands. All I did was push E next to it.

It was on the level BLAST PIT

It wouldn't let me give my co-ords or anything.

It's not a big deal as I was just pushing buttons but y'know, it's there!

Also, dont ask why I have 1hp, I haven't found a health thing in ages XD QUICK SAVE

It's just after the Big Fan when I go through the air duct, about 2 mins on from that, maybe less.

[EDIT]

I turned my head and saw a health thing! YOU GUYS DO CARE!

by **deadly22sniper** Sat 15 Sep - 10:40:08

So good. Played until 1am. Need MOAR!

by **kopite73** Sat 15 Sep - 11:41:53

is it free or do i need to buy half life first ?
also if free link to it
f i need half life we do i get it ?

by **Fuggut** Sat 15 Sep - 11:45:32

okay Kop

http://release.blackmesasource.com/

go to that page and where it says "Download now" click on one of the 3 options, Torrent or mirror. Simply download it then run the "Black Mesa.Setup" File and that will install it to steam for you, then it -should- install something called SDK Base 2007, then you can play, it's completely free

and yeah I saw deadly, me and you were only ones on last night XD I decided to take a break though, I don't wanna finish it and then be like "Aw well I played it too quick"

by **Fuggut** Sat 15 Sep - 13:12:37

I love the fact when an alien spits on you your gun goes all gooey XD thats random lol

by Jay Scott Sat 15 Sep - 16:19:00

Game looks beautiful!

- Ha I seen that today Fugg I picked up a glock with gloop all over it..
- I was raging after the first 5mins I was stuck and didn't no were to go!
- ExeTick came to my rescue as always. <3

by **Fuggut** Sat 15 Sep - 16:31:37

by Jay Scott Sun 16 Sep - 17:45:05

Am stuck again >.< can anyone help?

by Jay Scott Sun 16 Sep - 17:45:44

Am stuck on this part?

by **deadly22sniper** Sun 16 Sep - 18:56:52

There should be a way up to the catwalk on your upper right, then you can jump from box to box to get to the other side.

by **Bounty** Sun 16 Sep - 20:21:14

Lift is nearby to get on the boxes.

by Nixy23 Sun 16 Sep - 20:23:14

Jump from case 1 to case 2, then onto the rails on the left, then to case 3, 4 and 5, and then to the ledge.

Platforming + Scotty = fail

by Nixy23 Sun 16 Sep - 20:38:44

They made it damn hard in this game I tell you. Much harder then it should've been Razz

by Jay Scott Sun 16 Sep - 20:58:51

Cool ill try again 2moro. I forgot how much patience is needed with this game! >.<

by Jay Scott Mon 17 Sep - 14:51:07

Piece of cake.. thumbsup

by **Fuggut** Mon 17 Sep - 16:49:10

it only took you about 12 hours XD

by **Lovvi** Mon 17 Sep - 17:11:56

thats the easiest part of the game

by **Bounty** Mon 17 Sep - 17:46:02

Got to the bit with an Apache, but all my guns disappeared.

by ForceEcho Mon 17 Sep - 19:25:00

Easily , EASILY the best mod I have ever played. If you can imagine for one second that half life 1 had a different story and this was totally original I would say it would be one of the best games ever...

by Jay Scott Mon 17 Sep - 20:20:08

It didn't take me twelve hours it took me 5 attempts to cross the boxes. I was stuck for abit coz I dodn't turn round and see the ladder. Razz
