Probably wouldn't like the Cinematic Awakening Mod either.

The Borealis maps in DSN have a rather interesting origin story. If you looked at the map files you probably noticed that Borealis maps have a name prefix "rt_". The "RT" simply stands for "Reincarnation Team", creators of another russian beta mod known as "Oldschool Story" or "Project Interceptor" (that is a rabbit hole on its own). So, the story goes like this: When the stolen Borealis maps from MI were removed from DSN, the creator of Oldschool Story mod decided to donate his Borealis maps as a friendly offer. If we talk about stolen maps, Build 2046 had a long track record of taking maps and prefabs from other mods without permission. The Ravenholm map from Build 2046 v4.93 was cut in DSN is because it was one of the stolen maps too (originally made by OddDoc from "hl2-beta" forums). A couple maps of "Dark Forest" chapter in DSN were taken from "Opposing Force 2 Demo", I believe (Build 2046 borrowed plenty of prefabs from OF2, iirc). The "sleepy Alyx piloting a helicopter" map is from that old "Fake Episode Three Mappack" mod. The map with a big pipeline going through a chasm seen in Build 2046 v4.93 was stolen from the mod "Insolence", same for the "Airex Start" map with a sniper where you spawn at the bottom of the canyon instead of a cliff. Now to be fair to Vlad, he wasn't aware where most of the stolen maps came from (except for a couple of Opposing Force 2 maps, because they were considered a "public domain" by that time). As it was pointed out in a now deleted announcement in old VK group of the mod, those who were stealing most of the maps were "anime-stalker-03" and "Shito Warkami" (the former mod developers who got kicked out from D-Team when theft was uncovered). This situation left Vlad as the only person on the team essentially. From that moment he decided to work alone, because he didn't want to deal with any more drama. Better safe than sorry, I guess. P.S.: KZread deleted my previous comment because apparently the google's stupid AI didn't like that I posted the "HL2-Beta" website name as a "link".

A lot of SoC/CoP assets being used, at least the Stalker devs are chill with people using their old assets. As far as I know HDTF also used Stalker assets and the devs were made aware.

What has bothered me about these mods all this time is that they all use the floating text "Zeil" to indicate where you're supposed to go. I guess when they wanted to translate "goal", but it should actually be "Ziel". Even some of the other German titles and names make no sense and use very broken German.

That explains my confusion when I put "zeil" in Google Translate and it said "line". Strange why they did that throughout.

@@RadiationHazardYT I think someone mentioned before that the creator(s) don't actually speak German, they're just a huge fan of it. Which absolutely explains why they'd use the German voice lines, as nobody who speaks German would be insane enough to do so.

@@GermanPeter to be fair, the German voices for combine soldiers and metropolice does make them sound more threatening in a way. It's hard to explain, but that's the impression I got when I played HL2 with German voice acting for the first time out of curiosity. I guess it's different for someone who doesn't speak German language, while the native speaker would cringe when they hear the characters in the game speak their own language.

Thanks for the coverage! This mod had promise but sadly everything fell off. Btw, if the game sometimes feels sluggish: some parts had host_timescale on 0.85. Idk why.

Half Life 2: Arnold Schwarzenegger

I noticed a bunch of these assets are from the STALKER series Like the cars and trucks at 0:50 and the scene at 5:05 onward is full of stalker assets from Call of Pripyat and Shadow of Chernobyl You notice them because Stalker has this "crusty-ness" on it's textures and I mean I can't really diss the dev team for using stalker assets i'd imagine these were initially placeholders and they do *kind of feel right* but they're strange at the same time and clash with the textures in Half Life 2 like compare the scene between 5:05 - 5:25 and the scene in 5:26 - 5:35 it doesn't feel like the same artstyle (?) I mean I'm not sure what to make of it artistically speaking I just recognise where those assets come from

There is recreated Marc Laidlaw intro by Dark Interval team, before releasing current version they made the "Old Build Mod" based on 2001 (I believe) assets. This mod starts with that famous Marc Laidlaw's vignette "Timelapse Opening".

Totally worth the two unskippable ads to see more Radiation Hazard

7:15, these are Hruštšovkas, very common here in the post- soviet states, the models are straight up from Stalker, as well as many cars and tractors. I also think the wheelchair from You Are Empty is in this mod.

The soviet-looking apartment buildings in question are actually not the models, those are made out of displacements, but still use textures from STALKER.

The dreamintro map uses like 90% stalker assets, so blasting some bandits or getting artefacts seems to have been on Gordons mind whike in stasis Im pretty sure those opreasive skyboxes are also from stalker

you’ve gotta be shitting me. i was just watching the 2046 vid and this got released as soon as i was finished watching that one.

Happy birthday man!

What Vlad said: "I wanted to make a cinematic mod that's not lore friendly and does all this crazy stuff. This was always the plan." What Vlad meant: "I just got bored and changed my mind. Honestly, I can't decide on anything but I'm too stubborn to admit I can't and won't ever plan ahead."

There was one more offshoot of Cinematic Mod called Awakening that was supposed to add multiple paths, expanded areas and changes to the retail game with other original gameplay elements. Sadly, it didn't seem to have much builds compared to the other two Beta-style offshoots of Cinematic Mod.

5:14 nice STALKER assets

finally, oiled up cinematic barney

i watched the cinematic mod review video some days ago (i had never heard of it before) and in the end i was like "why this guy is talking like the mod author owed something to the public?" yeah, it's ok to criticize what you find weird or don't like (like the MANY Alyx's models and the modeled... you know, these were weird), but you shouldn't speak like if you were owed anything, as bad as it was, it was free after all.

I think the skeletons in the logo arent present enough, you cant really see them or tell what they are from far away when they are this small and slim, and most of the space is taken by the new name. I think you should add some bulk to the sillouetes so the dinos are more recognizable. This game looks so lovely man, I hope you will be able to sell it after all that. Story mode is a great idea, and I am so fascinated about how different dinosaurs gonna be like to encounter and fight. Everything else seems to be spot on, and I cant wait to see it shine.

They made a "Dark and Gritty" Cinematic Mod 😮

RadHaz, a passionate gamer, decided to try out a new Half-Life 2 beta mod one fateful evening. Little did he know, this mod would lead him on a wild adventure to the notorious Arkham Asylum. As he played, the game's glitches intensified, and RadHaz found himself suddenly transported to the asylum's eerie corridors. Upon meeting the peculiar Noclick, a long-term resident, RadHaz recounted his bizarre journey. Noclick, ever the listener, chuckled at the absurdity of RadHaz's story, and the two bonded over their shared love for gaming, even when it took them to unexpected places like Arkham Asylum.

It’s Ham Aslume!

0:03 okay man i see why you had to put a warning for birds chirping

jo im german and i first thought oh maybe its an german youtuber playing hl2 till i saw the radiation hazard profile

the texture from 7:10 is from stalker shadow of chornobyl (in pripyat)

I nearly spat my coffee at "Was it oiled Barney?" line. But on topic now, the Build 2046 n DSN are a great way to learn how not to do mapping, and game design. As much as it hurts to say that tbqh, since you can see that there was ambition in this project at first, and, it all just died off after a while... It fell apart due to incompetence of the dev(team). Shame, honestly. Some of the maps are actually good looking in DSN (mainly in 1.0), but, alas. Guess it'll stay in history as a way to learn from others mistakes.

In version 1.83 all the characters have used the same oil the oiled up Vort uses.

@deepsnow4994

The models having this oily look to them is most likely because the specular masks on the materials were screwed up or completely missing, while the materials still had the Phong parameter enabled.

Thanks for covering this, i was confused when i found a megabuild of this and didn't know what it was. I haven't dug that deep into your channel (yet)but have you played G String? I played it on steam, and it's got the greatest Beta style environmental storytelling I've ever seen in a Source game, even the 2 Gstring beta demos are great. i highly recommend it. Every level feels like that perfect Beta Canal map. There's also a newer game called Adaca, that takes direct inspiration from HL2 with its gravity gun, and a dark atmospheric open world mode that is a mix of stalker/half life.

The black mist? Wot?

16:24 as somebody who's engaged with a creator who only wants to create what they enjoy, saying this kind of thing to them is like hitting them in the face with a frying pan. it's only going to hurt them and make them angrier than they were before because the issue is there's a difficulty in making what "everyone" can enjoy - it doesn't matter to how many people you pander, how much criticism you engage with, there'll always be an outspoken group that doesn't like what you're doing for one reason or another. if you actively pursue the goal of making something that "everyone" can enjoy you're just going to chase your tail until you die of exhaustion

They really just needed to split the team on this, let the dedicated modders who want to make a quality mod make their vision on a different build, and pat Vlad on the head and let him go do... whatever with der schwarze. It's pretty clear that either Vlad wanted to make something that's not HL2 but didn't have the skill/experience to make new assets, or he was coping in the intro text of the game to try and double down in spite of the criticism he received.

Have you covered any of Leon Brinkmann's mods? They are pretty bizarre and I think they'd make a good video, especially Half Life 2: Episode 3.
