=========================================== Description:
Gordon Freeman infiltrates a powerstation commandeered by Combine
forces in an effort to destabilize their control of the region.
=========================================== Instructions:
Unzip the contents of SP_Powerstation17.zip to your SourceMods folder (i.e. C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods).
If Steam was already running, restart Steam and you should see Powerstation 17 as an available map to play. Otherwise, simply
launch Steam.
=========================================== Known Issues:
- In the reactor room, energy orbs can sometimes re-seat themselves in the tubes when they are flying around, though it does not
affect the final outcome.
=========================================== Version History:
Updates from 0.97: - Did some texture alignments on the big tank railings. - Replaced the garage doors with funcdoor instead of funcmovelinear - Aligned the monitor textures in the top floor control room so the displayed image is no longer flipped horizontally.
Updates from 0.96: - The doll squeaks when the player picks it up. - More texture alignments.
Updates from 0.95: - Clean up of the background map, removing assets that didn't need to be loaded and adding some minor details. - Fixed the sprinklers in the hub room ending in midair. - Minor tweaks with info_lightings.
Updates from 0.94: 0.95 is largely a clean-up release that resolves issues introduced in 0.94. - Fixed all info_lighting issues. - Fixed the rolling grenade in the first room. - Toned down the spotlights to highlight the rocket launcher area. - Tweaked fog settings some more. - Carefully tweaked wine bottles so they sit upright on the tables.
Updates from 0.93: - Finally got the ragdoll magnet working on the balcony. Added doors as well. - Started a pass on info_lighting placement to even out lighting, esp. on the garbage composite props. There are a few that still need fixing. - Added a couple spotlights to highlight the rocket launcher corridor. These should be tuned down a bit in the next build. - Removed a lot of the pulsing lights added in 0.92 to help framerate. - Revised the way pigeons spawn. - Added sparks to the reactor's destruction. - Added wine bottles and boxes to many of the tables. - Added a couple grenades to the starting room, though they have a tendency to roll into the main area. - Changed Water LOD settings on transition to top floor.
Updates from 0.92: - Further improvements to the turret so it essentially mirrors the turrets in d2coast12. - Added a balcony to the side of the Northern Petrol building to support an additional level of combat for the turret. - Tweaked the pulsing lights added in 0.92 and added a couple others. - Added an additional music track during the metrocop battle en route to Powerstation 17. - Added some batteries to the above area in the back of one of the trucks. - Added more details around the building the gunship spawns from and tweaked the position of the mountain in the skybox. Also added another smokestack to the skybox. - Minor detailings and prop placement tweaks, such as populating the shelves with miscellaneous props.
Updates from 0.91: - Replaced the sniper with a group of metrocops that are capable of manning the turret. - Changed some parameters on the turret so it can pivot faster. - Fixed an incorrect setting on the turret's gibshooter that made it emit three times as many shell casings as it should have. - Added a health recharge station to the reactor room. - Added some blinking lights to the reactor room and the water room. - Added an autosave point located after the dropship battle, but before the skylight battle. - Fixed a incorrect weapon on two of the dropship Combine. They now all have SMGs and the battle should be much easier as a result.
Updates from 0.90: - Fixed a crash problem with the twin doors by slaving one door to the other. - Fixed an elevator problem where the blocker brush would intersect and destroy the player if they were standing in the doorway when they pushed the button. - Adjusted height of displacements in gunship battle area. - Replaced greenish water with canal water. - Synchronized the title screen and gunship battle areas so they better reflect changes in each. - Minor cubemap improvements.
- Added barrels to the pre-reactor room.
