it seems it's now official.
They are releasing the dods update for real... surely css is next, and then hl2dm :D

CSS will be next. It's kind of between hl2 and dod. I think they are going to have to put the most thought into the hl2dm, so I'm still hopeful that it will be a good upgrade.

You guys really think they'll ever update hl2dm again? Were there any announcements about it?

Because seriously they hate this game xD

They have stated that they are working on updating even HL2DM, the lowly black sheep step child of Valve....

the delay is probably the fact that they plan on updating the entire episode 1 series, not just dm, most likely whats holding it up, i hope.

So far, the old maps work fine. There are some issues, but I don't know if it is missing models or missing code.

The super charger on lockdown will super charge like 3 people before running out.

All this from the orange box sdk code based on hl2dm.

I'm thinking about putting up a zip file with the new binaries from this "mod" to see what people think about movement.

Any interest?

Good idea becasue there have been times when I go into room/area and teammate follows me but i get hit so need to retreat but cannot becasue team mate is in the way :(
Don't you love it when noobs stand in door ways?
