Okay, I managed to get this to work on a standalone installation of Half-Life. To answer your question “Should I play it?” Not unless you are a hardcore half-Life SP player. The weapons are OK but the maps just don’t provide enough challenge or eye candy. The arm of the player is definitely undersized and on some of the weapons it doesn’t fit properly, see the images below for an example. As with many amateurish maps the proportions are a little strange.
You will also find the strangest looking elevators ever; they even have cupboard doors to exit from. There definitely were a few nice pieces; I especially liked the cable/one-man tram area. Unfortunately it seems as though the mappers have tried to use as many different textures as possible, as evidenced by two adjoining rooms switching between bricks, floor and ceiling.
I didn’t finish the mod because I came to a door that required a key, that I had already collected but it wouldn’t open. I had a good look around again and tried “Noclip” but that didn’t work so I gave up. There are too many other better mods to play to waste time on this one.

Get C++ warnings, and this mod does not work with Steam…or am I doing something wrong?
I also get the C++ warnings but I didn’t bother trying it with Steam. I have half-life installed as normal (As well as Steam) and just copied the installation folder (It extracted it to a folder under C:/) and played it normally.
I’m not particularly clever when it comes to getting things to work, so hoepfully other PP readers will be able to help you.
I’ve found the key for level 6. The key is somewhere on the basement where the crates have exploded.
OK, I’ll load it up and have another look around there, thanks for the tip.
Message for Carter: I don’t understand the reference to gypsy in your (Unapproved) comments. I sent you some emails to the address supplied but they are returned. Can you please explain?
I have tried to run this thing three times and it just will not run. Delete key will now be pushed.
please I really want this.
?????? ????? 🙁
?????????? ? ?????????????.
OMG this mod is so….
I found this mod to be very boring and was rely lacking in action.
I get the C++ warnings too. I don’t play under steam, and it won’t work here either. Could be a hl version problem…
i have a message of that c++ snd I don’t understand what that supossed to mean…who knows??
