Hello there Mapcore,Description As you might have understood there's some kind of a project going on named HL2_Odyssey, which is a project name and we might change it for release. In this project 13 students collaborate under the course of 8 weeks (at 50% working hours) to create a Half-Life 2 campaign. While the campaign will not contain a storyline due to the production time it has an order for how the different weapons, enemies and mechanics are presented. The goal is also to have transitions between levels that makes sense but will not be as seamless as the original Half-life 2 game. Background In case you have missed it, I'm one of the two level design teachers at The Game Assembly, an advanced vocational education in the city of Malmö, Sweden. The level design programme stretches over two years (4 terms) at the school and after that a two year In one of the courses, Level Design: Advanced, we are trying something new this year, namely this HL2-project. That said, we are very happy for all the feedback we can get, both on how the project is presented here on the forums and more importantly the students' levels. The first two weeks of the project were spent at learning the Source SDK as the great majority of the students had no or very little experience prior to the start of the project.Playing the mod All the maps are connected with level transition so upon starting the first Map it should load all others if you have them installed as well. If this doesn't work you can still play them by enabling the developer console and type 'map HL2_Odyssey_M1_OnTrack' if you want to play the first map. All other map names are following the same convention 'HL2_Odysssey_M2_Sewers, HL2_Odyssey_M3_Courtyards' et cetera. If you have problems please let us know! Any feedback is apprieciated and if possible in each students thread if your feedback is specific to their map.
Download & Installation There are two ways you can go about installing the maps. Put the maps in the maps in C:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\common\half-life2\hl2\maps and use the developer console to open up the first map, Write 'map HL2_Odyssey_M1_OnTrack' to open it.
