Description

This is a conversion of Sweet Half-Life (a mod of Half-Life) to Sven Co-op made with ripent. Modifications were made to support co-op gameplay. Custom npcs were replaced with Sven Co-op npcs. Custom weapons are included, but they are not exactly like the ones in the original mod.

If you want to report a bug please give details of the problem you found, so there is a bigger chance to solve it, and faster. Avoid making reports based only on the W00tguy repacker. Is common to have there false positives and things that does not affect the game and i have noticed that people is posting these reports without caring if there is a real problem.

Fix trolling not allowed: there is a group of users that since they are unwilling to take the effort and time to make their own maps instead they mess with other people work adding their custom versions disguised as "fixes", trying in a display of arrogance to impose their own map preferences just to feel they are doing a contribution to the Sven Co-op community. To them i say if you really want to support the community leave other authors in peace and make your own maps.

Additional info

If you are stuck look around, seek buttons, find things to broke, sometimes the path is not too obvious.

wow .. just wow

WAR-chorius 25 Apr 2022 00:53

hiciste buen trabajo
me gustaría aprender mas sobre "custom_weapons" , "monsters"

mientras yo termine mi proyecto haciendo algunos mapas de sven coop .. pero aun tengo errores que arreglar en mis mapas xD.

pronto creare mi propio MOD :)

Double loading

meryilla 13 Mar 2022 11:50

When playing this each level loads twice for me, i.e. the server loads the map, then immediately reloads the map again. Anyone else had this?

Re: Double loading

(account deleted) 14 Mar 2022 00:51

That is caused by the forced classic mode. Next time I update this I will remove it.

Alternate route is amazing

w00tguy123 02 Jan 2021 05:47

When you get to the part with the big momma fight and UFOs, don't go into the pipe. Instead, head back inside and trigger another floating cube, and then go inside the space ship. This alternate route is 1000% more fun and interesting.

Packing issue

R4to0 09 Sep 2020 19:17

Seems like the latest zip has the script folder in the wrong place, it is inside maps/ dir.

Re: Packing issue

Outerbeast 10 Sep 2020 19:38

Looks to be alright, only odd thing I noticed is that the custom_weapons folder is outside the maps folder when you'd normally expect it to be inside

Next upgrade for SHL Coop

2: Custom weapons need

Crashes the server

Scr34mik 01 Feb 2020 18:31

Transition from shl14b—>shl15 crashes the server !

UPD: Ive isabled Anti-rush plugin on shl14b and it seems this have fixed the issue.

UPD 2:
After about a week of these on server i can safely say, that any level starting from shl11 is prone to crash while in transition to the next level. Ive already disabled w00tguy's antirush on these, so crashes are not related to this plugin in general..
If anyone could shed some light on a problem it would be very appreciated.

rename file for linux: http://scmapdb.com/tutorial:map-file-distribution-guide#Case-Sensitivity
The best suggestion for all all files and file references is that you name everything in lower-case, that way there is no confusion.

Reporting bugs

Garompa 08 Oct 2019 03:00

Hey, I decided to give a test to the latest version. This is what I found. A couple of them are game breaking bugs so be sure to give this a read:

+ Bugs as of 7/10/19

shl2

• players are not Gordon McGinley (maybe change the text a bit?)

shl5

• luther can die, the door wont open after that stopping progress and breaking the map

shl6b

• the gargs hitting each other are easily distracted by players, looking at them constantly while playing their animations, looking weird

• a third garg falls from the rooftop, then plays a scripted sequence walking to the tunnel entrance, then gets stuck and is unkillable

shl9b

• *1 and *134 (vents at the beginning should be triggered 3 to 5 seconds upon start)

• "enigma" sci gets stuck and doesn't play the animation (probably because he dies) stopping progress and breaking the map. I'm talking about the one that runs to the portal

shl10

• "ana_door" *9 opens up anyways before the sequences are complete if the boxes are destroyed (the boxes are what triggers the door, and not a timed event as it should be)

• bigmomma while being captured by the ufo beam can actually run away from it (then it teleports and gibs so it "works" but looks bad)

• "ufo1" after gibbing the bigmomma, takes a long time between the end of its fast movements and disappearing (so it stays still for a few seconds… it works but also looks bad)

shl11

• the sci that transforms into an hev sci has a different head. Maybe to fix this, make the hev sci have the helmet head instead

• garg should have a bigger garg model, maybe the one from assaultmesa?

• the sci after opening the door says "careful, gordon" but players are not gordon

shl15

• cutscene should have the players stand frozen instead of an npc running around

shl16

• cutscene should have the players stand frozen instead of an npc crouching

• players are not Gordon McGinley (maybe change the text a bit?)

general in all maps

• hev scis dont have the hgrunt sound "yes sir" replaced

• a better robogrunt model is needed that is more "alien" to fit the theme of shl_ship

general missing files

Hola. Soy Pierre Limaco (Warchorius) … gracias por seguirme en mi pagina Mod DB, aprecio tu nuevo proyecto de Sweet half life. por momentos difíciles trato de sacar una recreación del mod en mi mapa "Portal House", Como habrás visto el modelo del "UFO" son imitaciones al "Alien Grunt", por lo que sus ataques serian del arma "Hornet gun" así que intento descifrar o entender en tutoriales en videos utilizando el "Github". Si logro conseguir la entidad original de un UFO con su ataque de plasma gun como replica de Sweet half life, te lo hare llegar a traves de un mapa de prueba. Por ahora solo eh creado el arma "Plasma gun" en mi mapa "Portal House Sector C". me gustaria apoyarte. Si también estas interesado puedes visitar mi pagina con las ultimas actualizaciones de mi proyecto "Portal House":

Translation:

Hello, I'm Pierre Limaco (Warchorius)… thanks for following me on my ModDB webpage, I appreciate your new project about Sweet half-life. Right now I'm trying to remake things from that mod in my map Portal House, as you would've seen the alien grey model (ufo) are just replacements for the alien grunts, making their attacks be just like the default hornet gun, so I'm trying to figure out how to make the plasma gun attack just like it was in Sweet Half-Life, and once I have it I will send you a test map with it. For now I have just made the plasma gun for my map Portal House sector C and I'd like to support you. If you are also interested you can visit my moddb webpage where I have recently updated my project Portal House:
