Comparison Shots:


Half-Life 2 vs. Cinematic Mod 10: Visual comparison - Update: New darker look - Cinematic Mod 10, Half Life 2, Fakefactory, comparison - PC Games Hardware

History:

CM 10 Beta 1 (First puplic beta)

+ MAJOR rework of all human models and maincharacters
+ Added Hybrid-HD-Alyx (very very beta) This model comes with HD-body but keeps the original VALVE-style face
+ Reworked Adriana Lima style HD-Alyx (new bonesetup, more realistic proportions, tweaked jigglebones)
+ Alyx got a pistol laser sight system
+ Optimized LOD system on HD models
+ New HD-textures / HD-props
+ Reworked old Hires-Textures with more efficient HD-overlays
+ Moderate rework of some keyplaces like Kleiner's lab, Black Mesa East, EP2-silo ecetera
+ Optimized texture pool for more economic usage of shared materials (CM9 uncompressed VRAM memory peaks: 2.3 GB VRAM -> CM10 uncompressed VRAM memory peaks:: 1.7 GB VRAM)
+ First implementation of a fully dynamic soundtrack framework (experimental)
+ Killed some background music (Less is more)
+ Tweaked the new running effect (reloading and shooting possible while running)
+ Several bugfixes
+ Launchers are using the heapsize command by default, because the current amount of texture/sound/mech data would break the heapspace limit

CM 9.7 (non-public)

+ Engineupdate to Build 3740
+ Added new ConVar "ff_new_running" for toggling the new run-effect


CM 9.6 (non-public)

+ Added dynamic muzzle flash effects (New ConVar "ff_dynamic_muzzle" for toggling)
+ Added MAJOR reworked HD-Alyx (Lima-Style) with much much much better vertex weighting (smooth bending).
+ Added some new HD Civilian models
- Fix: Small bugs in several maps


CM 9.52 (non-public)

+ Recompiled the HD civilians for better Eyes movement
+ Increased Bump and Specular maps on female characters

Is this for the Campaign I supposed? I could undust my copy of the game and test windows 7 even further :D

 

[stoneys-nutz]

Hello AstaLaVista, be prepared, this download is huge, and when i say huge i mean HUGE. 9382.93Mb (DOWNLOADING @ 400KB/S, TOTAL TIME TO DOWNLOAD 6 HOUR'S). and you will need a bittorent client. lol i hope it's worth it. :D

 

[stew2]

Looks like a good mod. Is there any way of Installing HL2 without installing STEAM ? I'v got the Orange Box and its the only game/s i dont have installed because it uses STEAM.

Is there any way round it?

Im willing to install STEAM and have it validate my copy grrrrr and install the updates. Id then want to be able to uninstall STEAM and remove all traces of it and still be able to play the games i payed money for.

 

[stoneys-nutz]

WOW, it was worth it. Just tried it, and it bring's an old game back to life. Graphic's were alway's good in this game, but they have improved them even more. Thank's for the head's up Neilsouth. Stew2, i dont think you can install this game without steam, and it's launched through steam, if you remember the code was stolen/leaked, before the game was launched and this was their way of protecting it. (Having said all that im sure some enterprising person has made a patch for it.)

 

[stew2]

Well that sucks If anybody knows of a way, then please post a link on how to do it?

Hot diggitty... are you sure that the game does not come included with that download already?

Well, worry not, I have a 6Mbit at the office and 16Mbit at home but I don't do torrents (can't really understands them yet). I'll see what I can do.

Well that sucks If anybody knows of a way, then please post a link on how to do it?

I'll let you know if I find something.

Edit:

I was able to find a Rapidshare link because I don't do torrents and since this is a mod and not an original game, I do believe I am not breaking any rules, right?

Here it is for those like me that don't use torrents.

I am going to have to install this on one of my other drives since I know for a fact that it won't fit on my Windows 7 partition.

 

[Everlong]

Going to give this a try, thanks for link :D

Edit: Think I'll wait a few hours until after 11pm when my downloads don't count towards my download limit

 

[AstaLaVista]

Ok, just to clarify something, this mod is for HL2 and not for HL2:episode One, correct?

Oh and BTW, don't you just love comcast Brodband?

 

[stew2]

Just installed it and its a definate improvement over the Original. It modifies hl2 and episode 1 and 2 as well.

When you install it go to the start menu and youll see something called Character Pimper. Just click on that and set them to what you want, then run the game and set every video setting to max.

Download only took about an hour and half and the install took just over half an hour i think. The only problem with it, is it uses STEAM

Sheesh...I barely started 9.5

It requires both Half-Life Episodes 1 & 2. - Cinematic Mod 10 is out! - Steam Users' Forums

Downloaded it while in bed last night, took about half an hour to install, and just had a bit of a play with it and the new textures are just amazing. Like what's been said, I always loved the graphics to HL2, but this mod just takes it to a whole new level :D

scroll down the page and you will see rapidshare links you can download or scroll further down the page and click on the link under single file which is:

eXp Download - FakeFactory's Cinematic Mod: FakeFaktory's Cinematic Mod 10 Beta

then click on Download starten

P>S> i never used these methods so dont know about them

 

[AstaLaVista]

I hate torrents as well but I do have a Rapidshare account, got it exactly because I hate torrents and there are some cool mods for the games I play and I got tired of waiting a month to download all the links.

 

[Everlong]

Rapidshare's only worth it if you have an account. Downloading this on a free account will take all year!

I don't think there's anything wrong with torrents when downloading legit files. I get decent speeds, like this file, I was averaging about 1MB/s.
