Half-Life 2 FakeFactory Cinematic Mod V9.5 HD Mod (9GB!!) on Vista x64??

[saguy]

Vista 64 and runs great maxed.

 

[V4NT0M]

oh, do you need EP1 & 2 to use the mod?

I don't have them on the PC, played them through on the xbox orange box.

 

[james.miller]

nope

 

[V4NT0M]

I'll have to get it torrented and install HL2 again.

I've downloaded HL2 on steam so many times it's unreal.

If I remember the notes I think you do need both as it uses models and assets from them.

it dont work with out all hl2 games

 

[jeffmango]

Readme says it requires "Fully installed and unlocked HL2 / EP1 / EP2; Make shure, you have started those games in the past." Anyone know if it needs Lost Coast as well?

You only need HL2, EP1, and EP2 to make it work

Cool, thanks .

wheres best places to put up high res screenies as imageshack wont let me cause too big (prefer somewhere where i dont need to register)

http://tinypic.com/ has a max of 1600x1600 I think.

I managed to run it fine at 1920 x 1200 on my 8800 GTS 512 with 4GB RAM on Vista x64 and a E6600 Core 2 Duo.

Downloading this at the moment, didn't realise how good it looks

 

[Geckovich]

Has anyone got any different mirrors? I seem to be capped at 40kbps with the ones posted

 

[Alexrose1uk]

Torrenting it is the fastest way if you can, there aren't a huge number of good host sites otherwise.

 

[Geckovich]

Sad times, just tried the usual torrent sites and there are hardly any seeds. Oh well, the 4.6GB file will be done in 1 day 8 hours

 

[Alexrose1uk]

Piratebay torrents for 9, 9HD Addon and 9.51 update had them all downloaded overnight on a slower broadband connection at my families. Not a huge number of seeds, but massive number of peers usually, so balances out as often with the combo theres a much higher equivalent number of seeds.

 

[Craig321]

Downloaded all the following at over 1.5MB/s at college, so they're not capped (other people were using the connection, dammit! ).

[Geckovich]

Hitting up the torrents now, cheers guys.

Does anyone know what files I need to remove/change to get rid of the modifications they made to the gun sounds/music/gameplay (they made it so monsters etc. die more easily when shot).

 

[Geckovich]

With regards to how easily things die that would most likely be an autoexec.cfg config file which you could either delete to return to vanilla values or edit in notepad to chage to how you want.

I can't remember the directory it will be in though and I don't have steam installed on my lappy to check at the min.

I might just be able to delete them - autoexec.cfg is located in the FAKEFACTORY folder so it hasn't actually edited any of the original files.
