Hi.
I was doing this project for some years, was trying to get better on goldsrc by learning it from A-Z and was doing some stuff over limits, now I have no idea what to do with it.
Here is some old pic's of project.

And so on here Link to mod..
I still have whole project files in my PC, but Iam not sure if I sould continue this mod :).
Now thinking about using source engine or unreal engine.
------------------------------------------------------------------
About me:
I'am programmer mainly on php,js,C#,C++.
Also I am well on goldsrc modeling, mapping, programming

and so on.
Sometimes Iam doing 2d games on Mono engine C# and oxigine engine C++.

:thumbsup:

hey man, interesting project.
So it's basically a port/remake of L4D on Gold Source?

As interesting as it is, I think anything that uses Gold Source these days is just a waste of time. You might as well just use Source.
But honestly I would recommend doing something more original and that will express yourself and your own style, rather than recycling/downgrading a game that is not yet "outdated".

I would also recommend using Unity or Unreal, both because they are free, highly popular (so that means a lot of tutorials and user friendly aspects), and because they are more advanced than the current free version of Source.
If Source 2 comes out soon then my opinion would most likely change. But personally I wish I would have invested more time into Unreal while I still had a lot of free time.

Yap. it is basicly remake on goldsrc, with engine modifications

as you can see.
Iam thinking about unreal, but I dont know if I can learn it very well :D. I only had experience with unreal tournament 2001 mapping, and I didnt had chance to program something for unreal engine, not talking about modeling, cuz I was doing models for old games, I dont think I can create well looking models for unreal.

Very interesting mod per se, but i think that you should move to a better engine to mod the game ( still a good mod ).

my vote is yes & no

you've already put some great effort into this & it shows imo
I love old school game design so I think it's pretty cool

maybe once we release OBM multiplayer you could add the content as a multiplayer mod? for example an old school l4d server? much like how gmod & counter strike have had zombie survival servers.
