Get Black Mesa on Steam! We can do it!

I’d be happy to help market this, try a get another video to front page of dig and couple millions views, tell my fan base and steam users to vote for it.

I’ve been PMing Raminator some, but with the mod being release so soon he seems less than enthused to have someone new helping out.

If anyone has any other HL related projects, they need creative input, playtesting, and marketing for. PM me.

Stewart, do you think you might be able to code a little widget or app for android? That would be AWESOME :B

True, Very True. I can’t wait. I have my “rig” waiting with the SDK base installed.

Tied with slender source!

EDIT: oh look at me being slow. I see this is last page’s news. :frowning:

The alternate percentage is also up to 4%, so hopefully that is an indication that 32% is right around the corner!

As far as I can tell, they use that tag because they don’t want to sell it. They also know they can’t sell the game. (If they don’t, they should.) But Free to Play is not a safety for mods.

For example, the mod “Nightmare House 2” was removed because of violations. The Portal 2 mod “After world”, before it was removed, was found to be incompatible with Green light. The mod was removed a couple of days later.

I suspect most mods that are still up got up before the $100 one time fee was enacted.

When Black Mesa was uploaded, did Carlos have to pay $100?

Holy shit! This is just as annoyingly tense as when the Portal 2 ARG was active and I would literally idle games to get the damn bar to move.
Watching the bar move up for Black Mesa is literally making me shit my pants. This is insane!

Yes, he did have to pay the $100.

I’m sorry to hear that.

Voted!

Wait…Steam shows 4% but https://www.shrewdlogarithm.com/greenlight.htm#[[4,1]] shows more…

<< confused…

Wait…I had to refresh for some reason…

31% it is!

Awesome

Was 4% for me too

As in, the guy who did the crazy fast half hour Half Life speed run (or was it multiple people)? I’d love to see a replica of that in BM, but a lot of the exploits wouldn’t work the same way. Don’t mean to be rude but is there any way to verify its you?

THE Spider-Waffle? Really??

Edit: Ninja’d :ninja:

Well, we’re up to 5% Alternate-Universe votes.

I’m going to stick with the thought that somehow two separate tallies are being kept somehow.

If you’re seeing a percentage something like 4% or 5%, it is not accurate. Greenlight is having problems at the moment. We’re at 31% as of my last check.

Need to ask, are you THE spider-waffle?
The speedrunner?
oh hai thar, Ive watched the half-life in half an hour like 30 times :smiley:

Granted I know next to nothing about this kind of stuff, but is it at all possible that the small percentage is a backup counter for when the first counter goes down… so in theory you could total the two together for a nice 36%.

Is it even plausible that they would set it up like that?

Any sensible person would just try to keep the original counter from going down in the first place, but I suppose if there was an unexpected issue with it they could have put this in place in order to not lose votes while they work on a fix. I dunno.

Any input Hubi? (Oh masterful one of coding and web-related-thingamajigs.) :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s what I’m thinking. When the system is overloaded or not responding for some reason, votes cast during the down-time are dropped into a trough. Dunno if it’s ever poured into the main reservoir, or what, but…

Or maybe it’s just a random glitch that happens to be going up at a rate that we haven’t seen since it started going up.

It’s plausible. The “alternate universe” count is now up to 6% while the other side is still at 31%. It’s possible that if there are two (or more) servers handling the vote tally that they aren’t communicating with each other, so when someone votes, it might go to the “alternate universe” server. When they finally do fix the communication issue, the two differing tallies will be synced up. Maybe.

It’s possible that we’re at 37% now.

If that is the case, unfortunately that still would not put us in first place. I saw reports that Slender’s alternate universe count was up to 8% which would put them at 39%. :fffuuu:
