Half Life : OPS is a hl1 modification, made in-house from the ground up, legal, and meant for PC and Dreamcast platforms. It's purpose, other than make a playable game, it's to document the making-of process so it serves as hl1 modding doccumentation, since the old valve-erc has faded long ago.

It has no linear storyline, it's more or less a bunch of random missions mixed together, adding random elements to the gameplay each map. The only thing that isn't modded of has any new elements comparing to original hl1, it's the models.

(please notice you need a copy of half life 1 to play the mod)
(please notice the doccumentation is in development)

Ohhh! Awesome man downloading now!

Oh man this is super hard lol! I can kill the first 4, but my health is horrible hehe. Any tips?

Edit: Love the music in the clock tower! I have one problem though, after I snipe the guys from the clock tower, I don't know what special ammo I should use to take out the radio tower, I can't figure our what to do next.

[NicholasWolf]

if you have a character, let me voice him, i can try my best at doing a david hayter (its been getting better with practice)

[Anthony817]

Haha, you can do Solid Snake! Got any samples?

[NicholasWolf]

i can do like a solid snake in his teen years (which means if they do a game about that, even metal gear 1, i could do it if david couldn't but maybe get on tinychat one day and talk over my mic)

[Dreammatrix]

The maps sems be Awesome!
I will give a try on this weekend !

[Divagante]

anthony, use the pistol, its more accurate (i also think its too hard, im gonna add some suitpower on the start). to pass the 1st level you gotta go to the radio tower and touch it (forgot to change the text... added to buglist). no tips on the 2nd map tought xD

nicholas, theres no need of speech on hlps, yet im thinking of doing something better when i finish this and start a group. ill talk to you (and others i have in mind) then

[Anthony817]

Well, where do I get the pistol from? When I start I only have the sub machine gun. Also, how do I get to the radio tower? I can jump out onto the roofs, but I can't climb down the ladder. Also, every door I try to open is locked, and I see no way over the fence.

[Divagante]

the crates are breakable, the clocks on the tower are breakable...

[Divagante]

walktrough for the 1st map v1.0beta (while i dont bugfix it)

[Anthony817]

Oh! Ok, I should crouch when I want to jump to that roof. Alao, I see what you mean about the crates, I wasn't trying to break them hard enough. :S

[Divagante]

i apologise for thread bump, but currently i'm working on how to make a "hl1 non \valve modification mod", so i can legally publish a stand-alone for the pc. It will be able to be more seen, and it publishes dcfan. If anyone has any clue, please let me know

EDIT: found it, but the multiplayer menus still show up, no big deal i guess xD
EDIT2: managed to do it! SS and minimal files for future reference in the next post

also, i'd like to put a dcfan logo and URL on HL:OPS, do you allow me shining? best regards

[Divagante]

(regarding the previous post)

The single player mod, instead of replacing original hl1 files (in "\valve" folder), it goes to it's own folder.

screenshots of what it does:







TEST FILES HERE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE: download

also, like this you are able to make a shortcut to hlps like this:

"C:\HLOPS\hl.exe -game hlops"



SO, what does this matter? With this process, the mods we create here (pc version) go to it's own folder, nothing having to do with hl1 ones.
This means we can legally distribute these mods anywhere, therefoward publish dcfan.net.ru more

i hope this serves for future reference, kindly, divagante

[Divagante]

after much work today, main menu image is ready to go and working! (it gives a lot of work cause its actually 12 pics glued together in .tga)

(SEE IT HERE)

shining, there's a dcfan logo on it still waiting for your aprovement

[Anthony817]

When you say "Legaly publish to pc" what does this mean? I ask because does this mean you will use less code of the game or have it as a stand alone game for free?
