Description
About
This is the early acess version for the remake of the half-life opposing force chapter called : Vicarious Reality (Currently in Development) Note that map 2 and 3 will not be included in this version.

Play as Adrian Shephard again in black-mesa, biodome sub level section!
This is the early acess version, wich only include first map (3 maps will be in the final version)

Things To know And Features
-Will be a complete remake of the full chapter using black-mesa assets (1 map out of 3 for this version)
-Custom textures, models and sounds
-Reimagined and extended maps area
-Hecu soldier arms! (dosent replace or overwrite any bm file)
-Optional hud and more, black box team was kind enough to let me use their green hud, also include, suit male voice, nigt vision with opfor sound, m16 and pipe wrench. Installation instructions bellow.
-Race x alien are replaced with black-mesa npcs (since we cant add any new npcs)


Optional hud Installation Guide

-Now to install this you need go to your main steam folder then steamapps/workshop/content/362890/2976417497

-Go to your main steam folder then steamapps/common/Black Mesa/bms/custom (if you dont have a custom folder, simply create one in bms.)

-Now drop : Vicarious Reality hud and extra vpk, into your custom folder.

-launch the mod and enjoy.


-Take note, this is temporary, since its not possible to not overwrite the base game files when you make a map that is launched from the workshop, this is why the hud is an additional vpk, so that you can easily move it in/out quickly. The final version will have its own launcher and ui (just like blue-shift and hard course) this means that we will be abble to add as much as new skins and content to the mod as we want. For exemple the hud and m16 wont replace the base game one like this. For the moment the 357 will stay like this for the demo version, but my friend is currently working on a replacement, of course it is a desert eagle with a laser.


Installation
To launch this map, simply subscribe launch the game and then go to the steam workshop section and run the map from there! If you are using the old ui type this in the console : map bm_of4a1



If you would like to play some complete chapter of opposing force remade in black-mesa, i made two that are in their final version.

Its not abandonned no, about 2 months ago i started working back on this project, now im splitting my time half for hecu and half for vicarious reality. Im currently at about 50-55% done on the second map. Also alot of changes are going to be made in the first map, the first area will be minimal changes but the specimen observation area will be remade from scratch. Also when im ready to shpw the second map the mod db page will be updated And also this early acess version will be removed when the final mod will be out. The second and third map wont make it to the early acess.

A good short map. Hopefully one day Valve releases the Xengine source code so we can have an actual Black Mesa Opposing Force & Decay made by HECU Collective so Opposing Force & Decay gets the same treatment and up to par with Black Mesa Blue Shift!
