Re: HL2 SP mods

Thanks! Now I feel even more out of touch. I started Minerva-Metastasis last night. For my first 'mod', it's awesome. An excellent refresher on why I got HL2 in the first place.

I am doing that one as well - stuck right now on part 3.

Just finished the mod - nicely done in all. Some odd parts that are either bugs or the timing is off enough to cause some frustration.

Just finished (Minerva: Metastasis). I saw some rendering problems with pipes and body parts stuck in walls, but timing was OK. Forces you to really think strategy and to not depend on a certain weapon that was in the original game.

For SP mods, I run at absolute minimum XP. I have a batch file that takes the PC offline and stops a lot of unnecessary services. When done, I put everything back. No glitches or delays.

If you have timing problems, it might help to run the video benchmark in HL2 Lost Coast. I'm over 100 fps. That's a topic for the PC Gaming Tech forum: »PC gaming Tech

I get over 100 FPS's as well - it is a newer system and with a newer video card than when I first ran the Lost Coast benchmark - went from a 7900 GS to a 9600 GT.

I did get the key - found that the system told me I did not find it yet I had not even gotten to the place that held the key.
