OK, so now that summer is finally here, I can begin serious work on my mod, Half-Life: Retrieval.

Remember how in HL2, Kliener had your HEV suit? Well you had it at the end of HL1, so how did Kliener get it? That's what my mod is about.

I know that trying to create a mod by myself is a huge undertaking, but I'm going to try. Any advice would be welcome.

P.S. the mod is for HL1. ;)

remember at the part of HL2 where you get your suit, well, kliner says it was Your Suit. so there really is no need to change the story

No, your not Kliener, you're a compleetly different person... who has no name yet... :P

To quote Kliener:
"Ah, Gordon, I see your HEV suit STILL fits you like a glove... At least the gloves do."

Notice the 'still' part.

Also,I know that this is a mapping site, but I really suck at coding, so if anyone here codes, some tips would be appreciated.

Please? :(

I happen to like spirit, (It can help alot) but some things don't work, like trigger_relays, which makes it hard to map for Spirit. But then again, it could just be my fault. ;)

Have you got HALFLIFE2? If you worked on the mod using HL2 instead of HL1 I would help with mapping. Want to see my work, go to the thread - City17

I just used thread CPR to revive my dying mod thread.

I got Spirit of HL to work (properly) and I figured out the trick to make "new monsters", so I learned to model, I'll probably have some screenshots ups soon. (Just as soon as XThost decides to work again).

P.S. Don't yell at me for being a forum necro. I thought it would be easier to revive an old thread of mine than to create an new one on the same topic. :P

HL2 mapping bores the shit right up and out of my eyes. It's just lazy

"I need to put a wardrobe here. Oh cool, ValVe's done that for me already"

Basically i'm saying that the prop_whatever system is...erm...oh damn...whats the word?...Oh yeah, BOLLOCKS!!!

HL2 does not suck, but it isn't the best game in the world either. There was room for improvement. (P.S. I've posted some screenshots here.)

The suit in HL1 was a Mark IV, and in HL2 you can clearly hear "Mark V"
When he says "your suit" he is only speaking of it symbolically. Much like when Barney says "you left this at Black Mesa" referring to a crowbar.
Maybe G-man gave both the suit and crowbar to Kleiner & Co at the end of the game, and that's why you start HL2 without them. Strange, since we are talking about G-man, not Saru-man the wizard :zonked:
By the way, what is the best game in the world right now?

HL2 does suck, it's repetitive, very short and easy, etc etc. Source is decent, but it still sucks. Direct3D is an insult to graphics.
m0p m0pIllogical.
