Just got this game on sale, was wondering this too.

Nope. My game crashed trying to load the modified maps

EDIT: Oops, I just realized that the update is only pushed to the opt-in public-beta branch, and wasn't pushed as a stable release yet. I was testing OaR Uncut on the latest stable. Please disregard.

----------------------------

I just played through OAR Uncut on the new update, and it works fine with the update - all the way from Power Up through Apprehension.

That 1 Guy, make sure you're not trying to use savegames without the modification installed. You need to start a new game from fresh whenever you install/uninstall this modification.

For me it crashes just like for That 1 guy, and in my case it was a new game. :-/

The maps will likely have to be recompiled to be compatible with the new BSP format. I will get around to this...when I have the chance.

it crashes for me

Maps need to be recompiled with adding new effects, cuz i tried only recompiling, and there are no lights from train, only old sprite when looking at it. And also there should be a lot of other new lightning and shadow stuff that now exists in vanilla OaR from dec. beta update.

It's honestly a lot of work. I'd rather do it when my assignments on Xen have calmed down a bit (a lot, but this won't be for quite some time yet) and when the version of the game has stabilised, so I won't have to do it again.

Wait a second.. You are working on official Xen maps? This is amazing!

I've been on the Black Mesa team since 2013, friend.

I really just want to play the finish version of the game with your "uncut" addon, I feel like that's the true complete experience. Will you need to update this mod when the final release of Black Mesa comes out?

I really wish OaR Uncut would become an official part of the game similar to ST Uncut

This uncut should be reconsidered by the team to be added as an official part of the game ....right after Xen and some bug fix ...the ST uncut brought real "tension" to the Surface Tension level (in both the mod and the steam version), OAR uncut brought the feeling of being "on a rail" (in the mod version)...is there really absolutely no chance for the team members to at least (re)consider adding it after the Xen?

Is there source of maps published somewhere? Can I get it? I used valve hammer (12 years ago though), it would be interesting to look into maps and see how they were done.

I know that maps can be decompiled, but the result may have dirty brush layout and messed up texture alignment.

This is the most underapperiaciated modded level of all time that it's VERY depressing a lot of people would miss out on the actiony sections, music sequences, and clever new designs to this amazing re-envisioned Chapter. I swear if the original level was more loved this ingenuinity of a masterpiece to an already perfect Remake would even make it argubly better if not even longer and more enjoyable.

But nope, it just had to be cut out and now with every update a SINGLE person had to work out the constant bugs and crashes many of us still have, this level is amazing, and not nearly as bad as the original as the Modded developers thought it would be, and now I'm struggling to get it to work because of the yearly updates that ALWAYS leave this poor great level out :/
