Paranoia Mod - RELEASED!

[Jhaxavier]

Check it out here: http://www.moddb.com/mods/4961/paranoia

It is simply incredible what these modders have been able to do with the Half-Life 1 engine (no ****); they've developed projected flashlights, partial lighting (you can light up parts of characters now, instead of their whole body), bump mapping, gloss, detail textures, and 3D skyboxes. It's coming December 3, and it's going to be an early christmas for me, hurrr

Oh, and Spetsnaz + Zombies. How can you possibly go wrong with that?!

Wait, what? That's Half-Life 1? Jesus that looks incredible! I honestly thought I was looking at a STALKER mod for a second.

But yeah, I'm digging the Spetsnaz v. Zombie aspect of the project. Definitely keeping a close eye on this one for sure.

I'm thinking of contributing some textures to this project, so I'll let you all know how that goes!

 

[Dcode]

That is simply amazing what they have done with a 12 year old engine

 

[Reddog]

Sweet zombie jesus **MUST** download this.

Feck i forgot about this mod, ther was a few news posts about it on Planet Half Life but i totally forgot. Cant wait looks like theres life in the old girl yet.

 

[Jhaxavier]

I mean, holy crap dude, if it weren't for the FPS view and the NPCs around, you could almost pass that off for a real picture! They've really outdone themselves...

They were actually considering implementing dynamic shadows, but they soon found out it resulted in balls performance so they left it out. They're still considering it for a possible future patch, but not included with the first release.

 

[Dcode]

Holy smokes!

 

[Jokerman]

Will you have to have the original HL? I have HL:source only atm.

 

[Jhaxavier]

Yes, you need the original Half-Life 1.

 

[D3terioNation]

Will you have to have the original HL? I have HL:source only atm.

If you have source then you will have 1 LOL

 

[Ralfst3r]

That does look pretty nice for a HL1 mod. I can digg the theme aswell.

 

[D3terioNation]

It does look amazing, heck some DoD 1.3 maps looked sweet! But once in-game, there will be tonnes of obvious signs that its goldsource you're playing with!

Most importantly I hope the gameplay is good. But the shot of the IS not being complete is very dissapointing indeed!

 

[Nimsky]

At first I was going to write "no HL1 mod has a future anymore" but looking at the number of comments on that site it looks like it's going to be pretty big.


So what about the gameplay? Is it multiplayer? Does it have co-op?

 

[Grobut]

I hope this will work with the Steam version of HL (not Source), because my HL1 CD is long dead, scratched to oblivion.

 

[Jhaxavier]

Just singleplayer. So far, at least :3

And for those asking about the potential gameplay: http://www.moddb.com/mods/4961/paranoia/features/23846/paranoia Please note that this link is based off a much earlier build of Paranoia (it was written in June but released months later, actually), and that the team has addressed the issues the previewer has spoke of.

Yes, this works with Steam HL1.

 

[D3terioNation]

It should do otherwise theyre foooked!

 

[Trendkill]

I'm looking forward to this, hopefully it'll be a unique experience!

 

[Grobut]

I hate to admit it, but i'm hyped, this looks so promising!

 

[Polygon]

Well, looks like they don't need any texture contributions at the moment, but I may end up retexturing some of their work once this mod is released (maybe release it as custom content or something along those lines)!

Ahh, do you always leave your footprint all over? (or handprint..)
