Hello all,
In game’s menu always shows Xen image instead of the image of the chapter I am playing.
Isn’t it suppose to show the image of the chapter that I am playing?
As you can see on the screenshot I posted I am playing POWER UP chapter, but the image is showing Xen chapter.
I tried deleting black mesa folder and redownloading the entire game from steam, but it did not help.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

I had a similar issue myself after one of the updates - these instructions solved it for me:

The number of chapters you have played through is stored in a console variable called sv_unlockedchapters. This determines the number of chapters that will be unlocked in the new game menu. It also controls the selection of the background maps that will be randomly played on the menu screen.

Since you have already played through the entire game, this variable will be set to 15.

In order to reset it, follow this procedure:

1. Launch Black Mesa and load a saved game or start a new game.

2. Open the console by pressing the tilde “~” key (you must first enable the console if you haven’t done so already by going into Options -> Keyboard -> Advanced… and check ‘Enable developer console (~)’).

   Alternatively, you can add -console to Black Mesa’s launch options (right click Black Mesa in the Steam Library, under the General tab, click ‘Set launch options…’). Black Mesa will then start with the console already opened at the menu screen.

3. In the console, type sv_unlockedchapters 1

4. After you have typed the command, quit Black Mesa.

5. Wait for Steam Cloud sync to finish.

6. If you added -console to the launch options, you can now remove it again.

7. Start Black Mesa and load your most recent saved game.

sv_unlockedchapters should now be set to whatever chapter you were currently at, and the background maps will follow your current progress.
