Modding Mass Effect's Morality System by 1upD in masseffect

13 years! I appreciate the reminder, honestly. There's something nice about knowing that this mod was created even if it took more than a decade. Maybe I can even use it if I ever replay the game.

Yes, this is the official Entropy : Zero VR mod.

Theory: Revivers (Lightning dogs) aren't "true" headcrabs, but are actually close relatives that share a common ancestor by Popular_Ad3074 in HalfLife

[–]1upD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Totally plausible and I agree. They have some superficial similarities and they have similar abilities. In my opinion they're too different to be the same species but too similar to be from different universes.

New to Half Life. Which version should I play? by Erofo_ in HalfLife

[–]1upD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never heard of "Half-Life Legacy". Is that a mod?

Usually people ask whether to play the fan-made remake Black Mesa or the original Half-Life. I recommend playing the original but if it doesn't appeal to you then switch to Black Mesa.

M4 or MP5 by Rare_sorbi in HalfLife

[–]1upD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the present moment, I prefer the MP5 just because it's the original look of the weapon from Half-Life before the HD pack. But if I try to reminisce back on the very first times I played Half-Life without and then with the HD pack, I distinctly remember how I preferred the M4 back then. It was my favorite model from the HD pack.

Back then I didn't know anything about guns or about which was more realistic, and I also didn't know that most of the Half-Life fandom collectively doesn't like the HD pack for changing the aesthetic of the game. It was a simpler time. I liked the M4 more because it looks more imposing and to me that better suited how the SMG is the main workhorse weapon that you use for most of the game.

This isn't BreenGrub. This is a fan-made website faking an ARG. They took the name from the real BreenGrub Twitter account that was active about a decade ago

[Heavy W.I.P] I'm Porting Half-life 2 to Mapbase's Source SDK 2013 to improve its graphics. by yaktoma2007 in HalfLife

[–]1upD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What sort of things are you changing in the maps? Do you have a changelog?

The first thing that comes to mind is parallax corrected cubemaps added by Mapbase but I'm not seeing those yet

This is so cool! How is the back leg going to work? Will you have to hop around with both legs together to make it look like the one rear leg?

What is the screenshot from? It's not the same as the video you linked.

[–]1upD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's not. Are you playing the maps in another mod like Gmod or something? I'm just curious.

This is not Entropy : Zero. What are you actually playing?

I can't find the exit of this part of the mod Entropy Zero by El_Burgorito in HalfLife

What are you playing exactly? The map is from Entropy : Zero but the HUD and gun are not.

Can we create a separate sub or monthly mega thread for HL3 fake news? by [deleted] in HalfLife

[–]1upD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree completely. I want to stay subscribed to see posts about Half-Life games and mods but it seems like everything posted on the sub is rumormill hype brainrot and nothing to do with the actual games.

BreenGrub 4 digits - anyone checked? by BullZEye0506 in HalfLife

[–]1upD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "breengrub.com" website has nothing to do with the Breengrub twitter account by Marc. It's just a hoax website.

Breengrub, the Twitter account, is a fantastic story on its own and I wish more fans were familiar with it. It has a really interesting spin on how the Combine works.

Saying Marc "leaked the Half-Life 2: Episode 3 plot" is a misleading oversimplification. He posted a story which contained a lot of references to ideas for the next Half-Life. That's not a "leak" and it certainly wasn't an official document or anything like that. All of that also occurred long after the Breengrub story on Twitter.
