• Please note that these are publication date on this site, NOT the actual release date of the maps and mods

A demo release of a dual language mod called Logistique…Logistique is a mod whose story takes place at the same time as Gordon Freeman’s adventure in Half Life 2. You are a citizen of City 17, a city that is under iron grip of Combine presence on earth.

Game music , like movie soundtracks, can be pretty cool. So, this week’s poll question is..
Do you listen to game music when not playing games?

A straightforward map where you objective is to clear the enemies. Plenty of exploding barrels and enough Combine to keep you busy for a while.

“Based on the first buggy supertrack. This map includes 17+ ramps, jeeps with special “abilities,” various gaps to clear, and several unlockables and secrets….some of which may never be discovered.”

We all love the movies, don’t we? Action, romance, intrigue, the Half-Life series has them all. So….
Which Half-Life game would you prefer to see as a movie?

This long-awaited mod has now been released. There are two versions; a Steam and a WON version. I am currently uploading both to my servers. I will add them as they finish. Get downloading and reviewing.

A fun map without any enemies. The purpose is to drive around in various buggies and use the ramps to do some acrobatics. The better you are the more ramps are made available to you.

Just a short fun little map, where all the enemies bounce up and down until you stop them with the red button. You can restart the bounce by using the green button. The player can also jump up and down with the enemies. Beware: If you do it’s REALLY FREAKING hard to shoot anything!

This is a level from a cancelled mod called Pollution Labs. The author has kindly agreed to release this playable level. I have addde the BETA logo in the header image becasue the level is not finished and *may* crash at certain points. Please rate accordingly.

Time to think about the future…

After Half-Life 2: EP3 who would you like to play as?

This is my final year project that I directed, designed and produced. Built using the Source engine (Half-Life 2: Episode 2). The game features professional voice actors and a fun, strange story.”

I have this idea I want to share with you. One of the important aspects of mods is the new content. New content can make such a difference to how a mod is perceived. It would be quite interesting to have two groups of players who play the same mod, except that one mod has new content and the other standard HL2 assets.

A short but intense beta map of a warehouse on a cliffside. It was supposed to be part of something larger but it seems that something was never released.

I was surprised by the voting last week and could be again this week.
Is the Gman good or evil?

Find your way through a mysterious, abandoned mansion filled with zombies. Survival won’t be easy…

I have decide to publish an idea I have been playing with on and off for a while but now realize I have little chance of completing. I have done this in the hope that somebody with the required skills and motivation will choose to work on it. I have little doubt that there are some technical challenges that need to be solved before it can be completed but those challenges are not insurmountable.

As I was writing something for the Learning Center project an idea popped into my head…

I managed to steal a few minutes to ask the Strider Mountain Team a few questions.

This is a beta of a Star Wars themed mod that I don’t believe was ever released. If anybody can add any information please contact me and I will update the details

I have a feeling that the answer to this week’s poll question will be the most one-sided ever. However, I have been wrong before, and I am sure I will be again.

Would you like to hear Gordon Freeman speak in Episode 3?”
