Comment
So that Black Mesa Source video, the one from On Rails that was awfully impressive and very nostalgic all at the same time, turns out to not be exactly official, as far as modding can ever be official. In a post on the Black Mesa Source forums, ‘Raminator’, the Lead Developer on the project, has done a quick FAQ replying to the release of the video. “Someone showed someone else something that shouldn’t have, and that someone else decided to share that something with the internet."Isn’t that always the way? At least now we’ve got even more delicious details.
New Black Mesa Source video shows off 'On Rails'
Comment
For a while there, it seemed like Black Mesa Source was going to be beaten to release by Half Life 3, and we’d all make some jokes about Valve time transferring by osmosis. But the team behind rebuilding the entirety of Valve’s first game in the Source engine actually seem to be getting somewhere close to maybe possibly releasing it at some point in the future. At the very least, they’ve got most of one level built. The On Rails level where you’re on what I half remember is some sort of minecart, shooting dudes on other minecarts. There was some sort of physics puzzle with a giant alien at some point? I don’t know. 1998 was a long time ago.
Grand Theft Auto IV: San Andreas total conversion ports San Andreas into GTA IV
Comment
Grand Theft Auto V, Grand Theft Auto Shm-V. Rockstar's latest can wait, as modders are busily compressing the previous two games into one glorious, sort of broken whole. GTA IV: San Andreas is a total conversion mod for Grand Theft Auto IV, and ports the giant San Andreas map of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas into its RAGE Engine powered sequel. It's just entered its third beta, surprisingly enough, which adds: "multiplayer, races, gang wars, improved Setup and Launcher, improved graphics, map, vehicles, sounds, peds, shaders, collision materials, timecycle and plenty of other improved stuff to check out." It's still early days for GTA IV: San Andreas, but the below video show strong progress.

Morrowind Overhaul v3.0 makes Morrowind beautiful again
Comment
Morrowind has always been the most artistically accomplished of the Elder Scrolls games, more so than the bleached fantasy fudge of Oblivion and the me-too Tolkein grandness of Skyrim. It has giant friendly ticks you can sit on, floating cities and sandstorm ravaged towns of psychedelic mushrooms and shell-constructs. In my mind it still looks as realistic as the day I upgraded my nVidia graphics card to get the nice real-time rippling water effects. But in reality it looks as dated and threadbare as a decade old game is allowed to look. Enter Morrowind Overhaul v3.0, which aims a thimble of digital botox squarely at Bethesda's ancient RPG.Free zombie mod MineZ brings DayZ to Minecraft
Comments 7
I've been playing the MineZ public beta, the DayZ inspired, server-side Minecraft mod that chucks 150 players into a zombie-infested open world and expects them all to survive and play nice together. It's turned out to be way more brutal than DayZ, and way less sinister. MineZ is like a horror film set in a ball pit. Civilization V Alpha Centauri mod now on Steam Workshop: be still my beating heart
Comment
Despite Sid ‘Name-On-The-Box’ Meier’s willingness to return to the great monuments in his past - see 2004’s Pirates! and Civ IV expansion Colonization - EA’s golem-like grip on the rights for Alpha Centauri has seen the fan favourite fall into dust. Fortunately for the civilised world, one brave modder is turning Civilization V into Alpha Centauri, piece by piece, map by map.
iCEnhancer mod for GTA IV now "complete", creator moves on to Skyrim and Minecraft
Comment
Beauty is only skin deep, but Grand Theft Auto IV is a thick-skinned rhinoceros of a game. What does that even mean? I have no idea. Just, look here at this: the final version of iCEnhancer for GTA IV has been released. Version 2.1 of the mod employs a range of prettifying post-processing effects to enhance and improve upon Grand Theft Auto's visuals, turning it from a relatively attractive game into a framerate murdering, photorealistic masterpiece. Even if your PC isn't up to the challenge, it's a joy to simply watch the mod in action. Video is after the click.DayZ to add dogs in pupcoming pooch patch
Comment
Dogs are excellent! That's my dog Sam, up there. He's dead now, which makes him the perfect canine candidate for an appearance in an upcoming version of DayZ. According to the Arma 2 mod's creator Dean 'Rocket' Hall, the zombie survival simulator is soon to receive a pooch patch, which will populate the wilderness with wild dogs. Maybe even zombie dogs.DayZ continues to hate you - version 1.7.2 adds leg-breaking beartraps
Comment
DayZ patches are cruel things. Recently the Arma 2 mod removed guns from new players' backpacks, forcing them to forage in the zombie-infested wilderness for their first sidearm. Now, patch 1.7.2 will add beartraps that, as well as efficiently destroying any wild animals unfortunate enough to find themselves ensnared 'twixt the trap's rusted iron maw, can break a survivor's legs. In case you don't know, broken legs put you at a disadvantage in DayZ.Grappling with friends: hands-on with the amazing Just Cause 2 Multiplayer mod
Comment
Just Cause 2 has everything I love about games: an open-world, bonkers vehicle physics, things exploding, more things exploding after that, meta-explosions, and grappling hooks. But it missed multiplayer like a phantom limb. Unbelievably, two years after it came out, it's about to get it: the JCMP2 mod takes the huge, gorgeous, chaotic world of Panau and somehow manages to drag it online.Skyrim Online: a broken, bizarre and promising mod.

Trust the Minecraft community to make a mod of a mod. In this case they're currently building a version of DayZ, the brilliant persistant Arma II zombie mod. Enderal: The Shard of Order - a new Skyrim total conversion
Comment
Following on from the excellent total conversion for Oblivion, Nehirim, (which won the PC Gamer ‘Mod of the Year 2010) the development team behind it ‘SureAI’ have announced their latest project. Enderal - The Shards of Order is another total conversion, this time for Skyrim but set in its own universe. More details and screens below.Just Cause 2 multiplayer mod will grapple your heart
Comment
Even a game as packed as Just Cause 2 is bound to be missing something. It might have enabled players to ride exploding cannisters into the sky, but it lacked multiplayer support. The one game that I wanted to be able to dazzle my friends and it left that functionality out. I didn't do anything about it, apart from whining in a really nasally voice, but the JC2MP guys have.

Warhammer 40K Skyrim mod: In the grim darkness of the far future...
Comment
The Forsaken run from their tower at me, a mass of tribal weapons and old magic, full of implacable rage. They descend as a mass, striking at me. I stand firm. Blows from hairy cudgels and sharpened giant's toenails bounce off my Dark Angel power armour, as I wait for them to tire. Once they have worn themselves grey, I unload my Plasma Pistol at the nearest one. Before it fries him and his stupid beard, it knocks him right across the clearing. Then I pull my chainsword, to what I imagine are their puzzled frowns. 'Is that Dwemer?' they must be thinking as I tramp heavily over to them... cue buzzing, screams and the occasional tear. DarkD3 mod darkens and sharpens, but should you be banned for tweaking Diablo 3's visuals?
Comment
No, say Blizzard. Players are unlikely to be banned for using the popular graphics-tweaking mod DarkD3, Blizzard game director Jay Wilson confirmed on Twitter. The ambience-enhancing mod runs alongside your Diablo 3 executable, dipping its binary fingers into the game's code to tweak visuals on the fly. It darkens and it sharpens, desaturating the original colour palette to produce a more sinister and 'mature' looking game - because some people hate rainbows. And it seems that, for now, Blizzard don't mind. Fill your boots! With grit.Black Mesa: new screens released of the anticiptated Half-Life remake mod
Comment
Black Mesa is a complete remake of the original Half-Life in the Source engine. Like everything that's even somewhat related to Valve, it's succumbed to Valve Time and been in development for about three years longer than they'd hoped. To keep us all eager, and frankly I'm still stupidly excited, they just released some new images over on their Facebook page. Is this the beginning of the end? Skyrim Mods: Essential do's and don'ts for players.
Comment
It doesn’t matter how much you love or hate the meaty banquet of adventuring that the Skyrim Bethesda released offered, the longevity and real excitement, the culinary delights of the Michelin chefs, if you will, is to be found in the mod scene. It’s where people can make all sorts of utterly crazy changes to the game, inserting Crystal Palaces, entirely rejigging the game’s cities to make them a thief’s paradise, or just putting boobs everywhere. Wherever your tastes lie, you need to be able to manage, install, and run the mods without having everything collapse around you in a heap of contradictions and upsetting texture clashes.
