Howdy! 🤠It’s that time again, and as described in the 0.8.7 blog post, we are marking our 0.9.0 release today! While our playtesters may have been on this code for a while, the effort done by the team bringing all of the goodies below deserves to be highlighted! So without further ado: Speedy Thing Goes In, Speedy Thing Comes Out The biggest, most exciting part of this update is Aperture Science’s very own secret sauce: Portals. ...
Hello everyone, I have some extremely exciting news!! Momentum Mod was granted engine access by Valve! Firstly, this would not have been possible without the immense help from the team at Chaos Initiative, specifically CitadelCore and Tewan. With their guidance and direct help, we have been able to successfully get through to Valve to obtain access to the licensed Source Engine codebase! And that is not all! I am also proud to announce that Momentum Mod is partnering with the Chaos Initiative team and co-developing a shared branch of Source titled the “Chaos” engine. This flavor of Source will be a cocktail of awesomeness, the best of all (TF2, CS:GO, Portal 2) worlds, providing a ton of opportunities for both players and mappers alike (explained more below)! ...
Hello all! I’m hoping you’re all staying safe and sound during these turbulent times. Washing hands, staying inside playing video games all day, working from home, washing your hands… Staying in lockdown has been bittersweet for me; on one hand, cancelling a planned-months-in-advance trip and changing my daily routine, but on the other hand, having ample time to work on Momentum... So buckle up, because we have quite a sticky update for you! Haha… *Ahem* ...
Hello everyone! It’s the new year, and we have quite the new update for Momentum! New Year, New Update, New Rocket Jump Assets Since we’ve implemented rocket jump in the last version, this version aims to improve upon that initial implementation, including some fresh and new assets related to the game mode. The rocket launcher has been given a giant facelift, thanks to Lucifer, Bonjorno, and Vortex. Lucifer created the initial model, Bonjorno converted it over to a workable game model, and Vortex did the awesome work of texturing it: ...
Why, hello there. It’s been a little bit, hasn’t it? Well, we have quite the update for you! Well, not just you, but also our playtesters, who have been waiting very patiently for another update. There’s quite a bit, so let’s get right into it! A Tip of the Hat to You Momentum Mod will be featured in the Tip of the Hats 2019 Charity Marathon, taking place from October 11-13. We’re very excited to have some of the best surfers (and maybe even jumpers) show off the game, and all for a good cause! You can find more information on their website: https://tipofthehats.org. The surf and jump segments will take place on the last two days, but be sure to check out the entire event and help benefit Camp One Step! ...
It’s that time again -- for bugfixes! 0.7.2 is another minor update aiming to fix a good chunk of bugs found in the previous version, along with some more small additions to the game. Small Additions New grenade model by BlockBuilder and SethJH With a shiny new game for surfing and bhopping comes a shiny new grenade to replace to default HL2 one. Smoke trail to the pistol barrel In some particle exploration, we’ve added a small smoke trail to the pistol. You can check it out by shooting and just looking at it! ...
It’s that time again! The team has been hard at work at fixing up and adding more goodies to the game. While this is another minor version update, with mostly bugfixes, we were able to add some of the features that 0.7.0 couldn’t quite get in time. Paint Me Like One of Your French Girls We’ve added a paint gun in this update! The beautiful model was done by the beautiful SethJH. You can spawn it with the command give weapon_momentum_paintgun on any map where it’s needed. Upon left clicking, a colorful spot is shot onto the world geometry. It should be noted that if a ramp is a model, the paint will not show up. Also, the paint has issues with overlapping. The first shot is the upper most layer! ...
