Minerva metasis is a very popular mod. i played the first chapter, but now the 3rd has been released and the others re-masterized with HDR. but i can?t play them anymore, they need half life 2 episode 1, WHY ? i dont have it but i played the first one. i know this might not be the right setion, but i have no time... thanks.

Why? because Part 3 uses models and textures from EP1. That is why. Buy EP1 or beg someone to give it to you as a present.

To be more precise, the place is swarming with Zombines, and you call kill the stalkers you'll find.
If you didn't have Ep1, there's another reason for you to get it.

i?ve downloaded EP.1 in the time it was released, but as i apreciate valve?s work i?ll buy the orange box, as soon as it arrivesa here at the stores in Brazil. so i was trying some mods to pass the time, waiting for it to arrive. how can i make a map that requires EP1 ? i tought it would need the source SDK BASE, not the Episode. so if i wanna make a map with depth of field i must have EP2 and the player too, as depth of field was introduced in the EP2 ? am i right ?

buy it from steam. doesn't brazil charge like 4 times as much (when converted to USD) retail? get your hands on a credit card/paypal account

it?s very strange, but it?s awesome, it?s the first game that it?s cheaper in Brazil than in steam. and i want the box with the DvDs. 49 USD vs. 99R$
1 U$ = ~ 1,86 R$. and i?lll have the box. comparing, dark messiah is 19 U$ in steam and 99 R$ in brazil. so orange box is cheap here. but i don?t understand how the guy made the map only playable with EP1. i thought that it would need source sdk base, not EP 1 !

Yah, I don't think you're allowed to repackage Valve's content into your mod and put it online.

Source?

This is all I've found about it. http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Mod_Content_Usage

I'm pretty sure it's part of their End User License Agreement. You can't just pull models and materials out of the GCFs and put them into your mod package. You can use the content, yes, but the user playing has to own the content beforehand.

Haven't seen that page before, Kas.

It makes sense.

well... i thought that all contents were avaiable at source sdk base. so how can i use models from other games in my maps ?
