Author’s Note: “Hard Hat Required is a Half-Life 2: Ep2 level focused on novel environmental hazards, extensive non-structural BSP use to make up for a lack of usable meshes, and re-use of space.

It was created over six weeks with no modified code allowed, and is my first level in the Hammer Editor.”

You start as a worker on a fuel line, fixing some pipes, working on some kinks; you know that type of stuff. When the next thing you know, a rival company has hired a small ‘faction’ of troops to come in and collect the data from the mainframe(s). Your objective is to stop them using whatever means necessary! Even if it means destroying the mainframe! You can’t let this data leak!

Find Alyx! She has been taken prisoner by the Combine.

We are pretty sure where she is being held but there’s no direct route or way to confirm.

Work your way through various areas until you reach her

This is a simple 3-map mod, where you must move through a multi-story building that is the process of being constructed.

Army grunts are waiting for you, so be careful!

Take your time and explore – there is enough health and ammo available for you to reach the roof.

You are sent to an underwater base.

Your objective is to reach and destroy the “machine”.

Don’t expect an easy time!

After escaping with the scientist in Rescue 9-1-Freeman you find yourself with him dead and no where else to go but forward!

This time, you are intercepted by an old friend and that’s when things get a little tough.

As always, keep going and kill everything that is in your way.

Your objective is to reach the captive scientist and escape with him.

Of course, there are a lot of obstacles in your way.

At one point, stealth is required, otherwise your mission will be compromised.

A short, one-area puzzle mod, which will require some sharp thinking.

It was made in 9 days for a competition.

Even though this is a hard map the reward is great!

A year ago, a wealthy businessman by the name of Edward Marsden bought the ancestral home of the Von Creep family seemingly with the intention of renovating it for residential use. It has now come to light that this man has been using the castle for illegal operations and as a base for a crime syndicate from which he has made most of his wealth illegally…

Finding yourself falling through a vent, you need to work your way to a Combine portal.

This will provide the means for your escape.

Don’t rush through, as there are many twists and turns, plus caches to find. Good Luck!

Some scientists and security guards escaped the Black Mesa complex. Knowing the Administrator lived nearby in an outlying bunker complex, they decided to take him out. You only heard about their plans later and have to catch up to them. You also have the codes to access the Administrator’s complex. Contact with the scientists has been lost, it is now up to you.

My name is Jordan Freeman. My only family is my grandfather, Gordon, and he is old and sick.   Today the old man got up early,and woke me too…from the bad dreams I always have.   He took me up to the old closed area…people call it “Evil Black Mesa.”   For me it is not so bad a place.   There, I can be alone.There, the old man has taught me many things; how to handle weapons, rock-climbing, and other survival techniques.

A collection of 6 maps that start off with a scary feel and move more into standard Half-Life 2 atmosphere.

Things can be pretty tricky, so save often or be brave – it’s your choice.

Good luck.

Arriving at a new section of Black Mesa, you work your way through to a test chamber where you are transported to part of the borderworld called Xen.

There, you are asked to help Xen and its lifeforms.

Your job, should you choose to take it, is….well, wait and see.

Author’s Notes: “Instinct is my first level for Half-Life, but don’t get me wrong; I didn’t just start mapping yesterday… It has been a long and hard road of learning and development with the gold source engine spanning 10 years to bring you this piece of work, and I hope you enjoy it. I’m sorry for it’s poor condition: the map is unfinished, however, it is 2007, so I really can’t be finishing it when Hammer 3.4 deletes my maps etc.”

The action takes place in the future on colonized planets.

Having found “UNUNPERIUM”, a mineral which can generate huge quantities of energy, a Terrestrial Feberadtion was found to find and extract this precious substance.

The Federation has sent the cruiser “Aranon” tto the planet Akada, where a group of terrorists have disrupted production.

Your objective is to investigate this disruption.

This is a puzzle mod. There is no shooting and it is not set in the HL universe.

Solve the puzzles to move to the next area.

Your final area is the garage where they “pimp” cars.

Half-Life Back In future takes Gordon Freeman back to the Black Mesa 3 years after the “incident”.

His mission is to find crystals on Xen and send them back.

A scientist will teleport you to Xen

“After accepting the offer of the administrator you have been sent to investigate why a science team that has failed to return from a routine “Anomolous Creature” collection mission, they have also failed to radio in a report.
The helicopter is still operational but the science equipment is disrupting further satellite observations. Your orders are to investigate and remedy any problem found, evac will be sent as soon as you complete the mission.

Postion:Arizona 4 miles west of Area 51.”

A single map taking you from the darkness to the light.

Only one weapon is available and you only help some rebels.

An interesting ending awaits.

“You are William Nicholas Alexander Raskolnikov Myshkin Freeman (yes, “Bill Freeman” is really Russian, bet you never knew that) the hardened Communist and pot-head (see Theme Song). You have infiltrated a secret base of the evil capitalist pigs who are trying to take over the world. Your cover job as a research scientist at the Coke-a-cola/McDonalds/USAF joint research centre has given you access to the devastating new technologies being developed to enslave the world.

As the name suggest, this mod takes place through the night.

You are taken through a variety of locations, within Black Mesa and beyond.

Can you escape the influence of that trouble making Gman?

Two scientists talking. Sounds like they are talking about you.

You seem to be stuck on the wrong side of a radiation door.

Can you find your way through Black Mesa and escape?

The earth still rests in peace, no one would dare to interrupt the allday-business of the human race and imagine the intruding of an alien force on earth…Although you have a dangerous job as a member of a special unit, trained to handle inconveniences in the international research and science competition, your day starts quite normal.
