*Require Half Life 2 and Episode 1* http://www.moddb.com/mods/minerva/news/ ... oins-valve I found this on moddb the other day, turns out the creator has been picked up by Valve due to his amazing SP mod. I honestly say you should give it a try, its alot of fun and not stupid. I really feel like its part of the HL2 game. Btw, if you do play, please show me how to get past a part where i'm stuck. Its in teh first chapter. where Athena messages you that your off track and need to get to the downlink shaft... i haven't a clue how to get past this, so please, help. Or better yet, if you do play. Get to that downlink shaft and save it at the part and give that save to me (copy) so i can get past this. Have fun, and thanks to anyone who helps me. UP |

The downlink shaft? Are you above ground or below ground? Though this mod is an extremely well made mod. I recommend everyone with a copy of HL2 to try it. |

Below ground. Make a video from the point when you get the message saying to get to the power downlink shaft to when you get to it, THAT would be extremely helpful. |

Head to the top catwalk, and traverse to the area behind the large power shaft thing, you should see an energy shield with a few stairs behind it, and a shield plug behind the stairs. Toss a grenade through (if you are out, there is a crate on the bottom floor in the corner) and the blast will pop out the plug. Go up the ramp and press the button. |

Can you take a few pictures of doing that. I'm horrible with written direction in games. Thanx so much pain. |

Here The shot was taken in the room with the train tracks (as you can see below). You need to go onto the upper catwalks, and find the energy shield in the back (circled in red). Then toss in a grenade, or simply shoot the power plug, and the shield will go down. |

This mod is awesome, i think i mentioned it a while back. Some pretty "WTF" moments and some extremely hard gunfights. The last chapter is by far the best just so you know 
PS: Recomend playing on hardest difficulty as i do with all FPS games i play (Except UT series lol) |

I'm amazingly finding normal to be quite hard, i think all the combine take a bit more damn even on normal. I shudder to think what hard will be like. Though don't get me wrong, i've played through HL2, Ep1 + Ep2 on hard many times... just right now it just seems like tougher fights, which i'm loving. |

Yup Minerva is a good deal harder. But i played through it on hard anyway (lasts longer) What chapter are you on. The final one is awesome. Does anyone know of any other really, really good HL2 mods. |

Insurgency is a good multiplayer mod. As well, Black Mesa Source should be coming out (from what i hear) by the end of the summmer. That i cannot wait for, somehow i can't play well with the original engine or something, so playing HL with source graphics will rock. Half Life 2: Wars is supposed to be good, have yet to try it. |

AAAAAH! Black mesa source!!!! Wooohooo!!!! bloody hell! End of Summer! Booyah!!!! I cannot tell you how much i want to play that. I cant be arsed to buy HL1 becuase of the huge graphics difference. I have been wating for this since i got Hl2 and discovered the mod. And the other two... well im not into Rts any more (Bar the total war series) and i doubt many servers for insurgency will be running (besides COD4 blows away all other modern shooters). |

You'd be surprised, theirs a crap load of insurgency servers up. At least 30 are full usually. |

Just finished it. Wow. Just wow. I can fully understand why Valve hired the guy to work for them, he's amazing. gotta say that last part was frantic, even just the second of the four parts was crazy, specially when you got into the old WW2 bunkers. |

I loved running up through a destroyed version of what i had seen before with zombies everywhere. That was awesome. And when you get outside and get to use a mounted machinegun against the hordes of fast zombies... Doubtless EP 3 is going to be awesome with him on the team. |

Yep, he'll defiantly add some great ideas. I just hope it mean Ep3 is that much longer. |
