I made my own version now for Xen @Lollipop w/no Chainsaw

It's conflicting w/ the Shephard in Lambda Core mod. (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=576153898)

You either hear this mod, or play the Shephard one.

Too bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSCGoefBO7Q

WOWYESSGOiiiiii

When you say this was updated for 1.5, does that mean the mod also takes into account the changes that came with 1.0 and 1.5? I love what this mod does, but I don't want to play in an outdated version of the lambda core from before the the earthbound levels' TLC changes to get them up to snuff with the detail of Xen.

@Walter Bennet This will be updated when 1.5 is fully out. And if you do want the suit and weapons, type these in order
sv_cheats 1
impulse 101
give item_longjump
sv_cheats 0

@Walter Bennet: That's part of the Source engine, not a game issue nor mod issue. You have to manually spawn those items, in case you directly load into a map via console command.

After a few replays, I concluded I was very unlucky the first few times. the crashes and white hell are actually a rarity.

The only consistent flaw is that when I manually spawn into that map via dev console, Freeman isn't wearing his suit or any weapons. This is only a problem if you load it via the console. If you went into it regularly, that will never happen.

Well. Sometimes it crashes. Sometimes it results in me being stuck in white hell between the teleport sequence and Xen, and sometimes it actually works.

Besides... we have no idea if the mod will function at all by the time 1.5 comes around.

@Faye: Are you saying the mod is broken? you haven't specified the reason you want to see it updated again.

Is there any chance this will be updated again? This is one of my favorite mods for Black Mesa of all time, it adds TONS of cool atmosphere to this fight and it lets two amazing songs get their chance to be heard.

Wait... did my last comment disappear?

is this updated to have working hat?

@ID39 . Can you update this to 1.0 version plz, because the Cubemap is super bright & the 1.0 Update made Major Changes in every single map to improve the game.

Thank you for this

@Yusuf Kalasnikov Alright.

can you update the mod for the new 1.0 update? when i play this scene the game opens the old one.

It does work with full release and this mod really just makes the final battle before Zen really amazing, basically you did a fantastic job on this.

Does this work for the full release version of Xen?

No, but if you want to do something like it yourself, you can read this

Is there any theme you can put in Nihilanth that you think fits?

No, i don't think it fits well.

can you put it in nihilanth?

You should do this, but put it near the final phases of the Nihilanth fight.

@Dio Yeah, it only works on the PB

the idea is good, but unfortunately it causes the Ai disabled issue.

this just makes the Lambda Core fight more epic

awesome, i was one of the guys in the discord that said this should happen, and its happened, great work man :)

The final lambda core breach always felt weird having no music. This mod is really awesome to have!

This crap giving me AI disable everytime I die and have to reload the save before the chamber room to make that AI disappear

it's cool good:)

Because the map doesn't work with earlier versions

Epic

you F*cking god, you actually did it

why do u need to be on xen beta

Yea, you need to be in the latest version. And you don't have to put it in a custom folder.

Weird, this completely broke the finale for me. Disabled the AI, messed with the room/object's lighting, etc. Do I need to be opted into the Xen Beta for this to work or is it a genuine issue? If it's any help, I put this mod in my "custom" folder as well as subscribing.

This should be in the final version of the game!

I've always felt that the original credits theme was always a bit melancholically anticlimactic, which was perhaps befitting of how Black Mesa originally ended with, well, Black Mesa. A plot that couldn't culminate, a conflict that wouldn't be resolved, a story without its climax.

But even back then, it was also like a sendoff. A farewell to Gordon, who we wouldn't see in the borderworld again for nearly seven years, and a goodbye to Half-Life, whose own culminating chapter will likely never come to pass. Giving this song a second life as Black Mesa's last overture for Gordon before his final leap is some rockin' poetic justice.

Honestly, I think the fact that this is so cool just proves that this sequence needs a music track. Especially like how it faded into the somber music giving that awe and wonder other wordly feel right before Gordon quite literally leaves the world behind.

Does this work with the freemans mind song replacement, because I am not sure if it replaces the credits theme

Cool, crowbar collective see this please

in the video as soon as the scientist says we have a breach the music picks up thats cool

Its so simple, but so much.

this is because game will have new credits theme because of xen update

omg this is so cool though

NOICE

I swear to god if the BM devs don't add this i'm gonna be pissed.
