<div class="IPBDescription">KungFuSquirrel Ate My Hamster</div> That single-player Half-Life mod you <i>might</i> have heard of has updated media stuff.

More tomorrow, too! <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I disavow all knowledge of said hamster and all references to any possible ingestion.

    Just looking through the media and... wow. It's not quite HL2, but you can hardly believe it's for HL on some of the shots.

    The mapping is fantastic.

    Really wish people would read the about section <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->.

    First, Nightwatch is currently planned as a single-player only mod. Next, those 3 aliens arent the only aliens you'll encounter ingame, simply the only ones we're showing right now. Don't worry, when Nightwatch is released you'll be sure to encounter alot more in the way of enemies than those three <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->.

    Yeah....is it nearing completion at all? I understand that something perfect takes time, but please release before HL2...

    A while ago there were two singleplayer mods I was really looking forward to. Then Dark Truths died so now there's only one left, guess what <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> .

    I'm probably the only person who thinks this mod isnt anything special.

    Maps : Been there seen that.
    Weapons : Simple models... good skins... We have better stuff on these forums!
    Characters : Nothing original

    Er.. where have you seen that exactly? These maps have the highest poly ceiling of an HL SP episode to date, and they're certainly excellently detailed. I really would like to know of any SP mods with higher quality maps than these.

    I can't remeber the name of the mod, but it was for HL, and you played as an alien i believe.

    And there was a mod which had a sequel... cant rember the name but it wasnt English and you played Freeman (if i remeber)

    The one where you played as an alien...... You start off as the slave?

    Well, probably not, but we've been rather surprised with the lack of negativity so far. It's a nice change of pace <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Well, not sure where you would have, as I feel we have a pretty unique style, within HL at least... oh well.

    Doesn't matter what's on these forums. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> The model polycounts and physical detail levels actually aren't all that far shy of HL2's poly limits on weapons (which is only ~2000, IIRC). Arms push that up, of course. Custom community always has pushed that a lot farther, but we're not the custom community, now are we? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> I agree, there's some really sweet stuff here, but I do have to say for an actual organized mod team we hold a pretty solid quality here. There's always some really awesome individuals wherever you go, but pulling a solid group together out of those individuals is much tougher.

    Oh, if it makes a difference, most of those models are by def_one. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Of course not. It's a Half-Life single player episode. You're seeing re-created HL characters, with the exception of our MilSec characters. We're not going to make a HL-based episode and just create -everything- from scratch. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> And we're not going to play all our cards this early <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'm not sure what mod the other guy saw but NW looks to me to be one of the best upcoming mods out there. DarkTruths had potential but now it's gone. The only other mod out there that looks nearly as good is Poke646 and even in it only the maps were of the same quality. NW upgraded the models. Poke646 just reskined them. Great work KFS (and rest of NW team), I look forward to the release of NW.

    Edit: I just realized some of the weapon models for Poke646 were changed because they were new weapons. Those models were about to NW quality. They just didn't change the character models beyond skins.
