Proof that gldsrc isn't dead.

Summary:

From the makers of "Afraid Of Monsters", one of the finest examples of modding in existence and considered by many to be the greatest horror mod ever made, comes a chilling new tale that pushes the Gldsrc engine to its limits.

Release Date Revealed!

Features:

-Mod built from the ground up, uses no default textures or sounds.
-Bump maps and water that reflects and refracts light
-3D Skyboxes
-Enemies' heads explode

The setup seems a bit cliche, but I like what I see.

[wuzzimu]

Edit: Over a future weekend then.

Aint out yet, still under active development.
Latest update from this month.

[ddsn]

Jesums that looks nice.

Edited:

holy fuck i have the same sony ericson

[cercerd]

If they pull this off as well as they should, and the engine looks as good as it does there, I actaully hope valve commercialize it, to spread it around and they should also hire th people who are doing thiss amasing deed.

[FlowXobDans]

once they hit the 512 ent limit its over

[Slasha00]

Looks sexy. They should have used source though, Goldsrc is very limiting (Literally).

[Carbon123]

I didn't know such a beauty could be made out of Goldsrc.
It's amazing.

it's not too hard to slap (i'm using that very loosely) on some shaders. they still have to work around the poly counts and ent limits.

Yeah, true.

[CunningHam]

Oh fuck yeah, I love this team so much. Look at the trailer too.

The pin man with the chainsaw is great. I'm :swoon:'ing over this mod.

[WillerinV1.02]

I have the phone in that picture :razz:

[Sibilantjoe]

You can fall down stairs? Neat. I have a feeling I'm only going to remember that when I'm sprinting full-tilt away from some monstrosity and I take a flying header down a stairwell

Looks cool.

[kaneangel2012]

haha i have that phone never use it though.
yeah i think i'll give it a try

[Nitro-Trucker]

Could you imagine how horrifying it would be with HD 'zombies' (i dont know if they are zombies) if they had used source?

[MaxOfS2D]

HOLY MOTHER OF CHRIST ON A FUCKING CRACKER WITH CHEESE AND SALT

These guys should be hired at Valve or something, I watched their videocast and they actually coded bumpmaps into GoldSRC omgomgomgomg

Bumpmapping has been done in goldsrc before.

[FlowXobDans]

But really, how the fuck do people get shit like this into goldsrc. Bump-maps, reflection/refraction shaders, physics, HOW?

The same way everybody else puts it into their engines.

[Carbon123]

Just tried Afraid of Monsters. Wow, it's a great mod. They need to get a game like this on the source engine.

[DementNeo]

Why's it so dark? Can't see shit...

[abcpea]

Looks terrible, as was AoM.

[steekdan]

This mod is looking awesome but why cant he make a mod about super fun happy time... :frown:

Also gameplay

[That Ninja]

I shat myself when the hammer wielding zombie popped in front of him at the bathroom.
I've been tracking this mod for a while, and after watching a few of the videos, I'm beginning to wonder why I'm tracking it in the first place.
I'm scared shitless from games like these.

I think you missed his sarcasm.

[Silikone]

I loved AoM, but why the hell are they using GoldSrc for this? If the core files have been changed (which disturbs me if they haven't), there'll probably be issues with VAC like the mod Paranoia.

There were a couple of tutorials on the Valve-ERC.

[ashxu]

Looks like it's a source engine game.

Now i hope this game doesn't get ruined by the old "conserve your 10 pistol rounds"

[The Pink Scotti]

NO
IT'S NOT POSSIBLE
c + 7
c + 7

[KingKombat]

What the fuck? GoldSrc? Impossible

[solid_jake]

Fantastic.

What?

[solid_jake]

he's basically saying he hopes ammo isn't scarce as shit like it was in AoM

[Blargtastic]

Played AoM, was a masterpiece, it really got to me.

Eagerly awaiting this beauty.

It's a staple in horror games, if you don't think before you heedlessly spray bullets everywhere, you're going to run out, you gottta think maaaaaan.

[SGTNAPALM]

Sorry for the bump but seriously just look at this.

[RaveRaze]

Too bad it doesn't seem like it's gonna be released anytime soon

[Vantes14]

Holy shit thats fucking expert.
