[HL1 SP] Reissues (aka PQL3)

    Quote

    "Reissues" is a community compilation of 30 single player Half-Life 1 levels authored by a mix of various designers. Each one has created their own unique, self-contained chapter: you'll spelunk into ancient Egyptian tombs, scale mile-high cliff sides, and fight your way through several clever re-imaginings of Black Mesa - among other exciting setpieces!Why did we bother squeezing this last bit of mileage out of a decade-old game engine? Because Half-Life 1 offers a unique feel and aesthetic that makes it a timeless classic; because great gun fights remain great fun fights, even without shiny next-gen graphics; because we love what we do, and we hope you'll love it too.

    A year or two in the making (we actually finished months ago, but we were waiting on a possible code update to Spirit of Half-Life...) from your very favorite veteran designers in the ancient HL1 community. Yeah, we still exist, surprisingly!

    There's some FANTASTIC design in here; Echo Transit, Scepter of Ra, and Starlabs especially stand out in my mind - Echo Transit for the bestest HL1 crane setpiece ever, Scepter of Ra for the sheer scope of the custom content and craftsmanship, and Starlabs for the cohesiveness of it all... In addition to all the other chapters that are great in their own right.

    Download for WON HL1: http://www.hylobatidae.org/minerva/file ... Issues.exe

    Download for Steam HL1: http://www.hylobatidae.org/minerva/file ... mSetup.exe

    If you have WON HL1, put it in \sierra\half-life\

    If you have Steam HL1, the installer should find the proper path for you already, but you can manually specify \steamapps\your_e-mail\half-life\

    very buggy, some scripted sequences don't go off until you wait for it or load the level and try again.

    Im stuck in the warehouse level in starlabs (with the yellow lava box things), after i kill the dudes nothing happens and that door doesn't open. ???

    Well, I finished the mod some days ago (2 or 3, don't remember).

    It was just awesome.

    As I said somewhere, I love your maps CampaignJunkie (especially the Persian ones) and playing Second Wind was just blissful. Whoah, it's just HUGE man, I can't even say how I felt when I played it. That's impressive, wonderful. No words can describe this. This IS the best HL1 map I ever played. Congratulations!

    For the mod now, indeed it's very buggy (in fact my friends said that, it practically never bugged for me, only on Cyan a few times and once on Sat), but damn, these projects are rare, and there should be more mods like this little gem. The maps are not flawless indeed, some are a bit pointless and could have needed a bit more work, but that was just cool playing this mod.

    The mod's best maps for me : Coil, Cyan, Second Wind and Echo Transit.

    It really worths the download. Good work everybody.
