I don't mean this negatively, but I never really understood the Western otaku's infatuation with FPS games, or Valve games might be more accurate. I always found it interesting how it's Touhou people in particular that gravitate towards games like TF2, as if it was the light of the /jp/ moth.

>>161409It essentially was years back, it has custom playermodel support out of the box compared to Synergy, but years of hl2 updates and no actual updates to the mod itself has left it in a broken but playable state, it's easy enough to fix and there are two ways to do it.
>>161412Max players 32 iirc, but I usually keep it around 29-30 to keep the server from imploding on itself.
>>161415Half-Life 2 mod that could mount other Source Engine games from Valve.
Some additional information for upfront clarity because the mod's mounting system is broken due to updates and a lot of maps use content from the Episodes + CSS in some combination, there are two manual fixes to this:
1. The VPK extraction method where you extract the vpks of the games you want to mount and then symlink the folders into Base 2007, there is a program created by the community to automatically do this so you don't have to open the scary cmd.exe window, downside is it'll double the filesize of any Source games you have installed that are supported by the mod
2. Steam2 Wrapper method, it's something I recently got to work and is also a recent discovery by modders, where you create a "steam_vpks.vdf" in "Source SDK Base 2007" and "Source SDK Base" with the content depots, It includes all the textures and models of hl2 + episodes, but no CSS, and you wont double your filesize.
I will include both the first fix and the 2nd in my prepackaged Obsidian zip file that I'll be making soon, I just need to get some new stuff for the server done first, hope I don't scare anyone off with the fix explanations :V

You need to have the Source SDK Bases installed in the same directory as your steam install, it can't be on a different drive for games only. You then put the mod "obsidian" into your Sourcemods folder and follow one of the mountfix methods. The reason why it needs to be installed in your main steam directory is because sourcemods as a concept are old and don't play nice if at all if it isn't setup like it's 2007.

No.161718
After a little bit of testing I believe I've come across why the installs differ for people and it's mainly me not explaining things properly, hopefully this explains it better.
Important Bits:
1. The Mod uses Source SDK Base 2007, if it's not installed it wont launch.
2. You need to have Source SDK Base 2007 and Source SDK Base installed, it must be in the same drive as your steam install (where steam.exe is) the same goes for any of the other source games mentioned if you want to use Method 1, It will not work if you have Steam on 1 drive, and the games on another, it can work on an external drive but steam needs to be installed on it.
3. You then install the mod by dragging the "obsidian" folder into Sourcemods which will be located in the same drive as your steam install.
Mountfix specific:
3. If you are using Method 1, you will need to download the mountfix from Method 1 from the Moddb page, I accidentally packed a broken one, sorry.
3a. You can also just follow what this anon says here
>>161707 if you don't have any of the games.
4. If you are using Method 2, just drag the .vdf from the Base 2007 folder into your actual Source SDK Base 2007 folder, and it will mount everything
4a. If you want CS:S content with Method 2 follow the instructions in my post here
>>161702 and make sure you download the VPKS I linked, otherwise follow 3a but only extract the cstrike folder into the Base 2007 folder.
Model Pack issue:
I packed a broken copy of the model pack, you will need to replace the folder in obsidian/add-ons with a fresh download of the model pack, links to it:

>>161717It can run on an external drive, your steam install just needs to be installed to it, and it also can run on Linux, you just need to find a script that will make everything in the obsidian folder lowercase, because the people that developed it and made content for it were windows users, case sensitivity issues causing things to break spectacularly, and use one of the proton builds on Source SDK Base 2007, although since I packaged this primarily for windows users I'm not sure if it will play nice when you bash script everything into lowercase.
