Hi, Love the Mod, Just one question,

Recently I saw the new Underhell screenshots on Mxthe steam profile. They looked brilliant, but does this mean the game no longer works on the Half Life 2 engine?? If so, what souce game is needed to play?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Sorry spelt source wrong*

[Mxthe]

The game is being built for the Orange Box engine, any source engine game would work.

I don't think you need a game at all to play it as the source engine is now free at steam, unless the mod needs a special source game to start up.
I don't own any game on steam and play can Underhell.

He was talking about the new Chapter that is on OB engine , not the old Prologue which was built on the Source Engine 2006

But the new ob source engine is free, too.

[Mxthe]

It indeed is, which is why I'm excited to release this.

So, Orange Box is free? Were do I get it? Do I need it if I already have all the games on the Orange Box?

[Mxthe]

"Orange Box" was a pack that included Half Life 2, Half Life 2 Episode One, Half Life 2 Episode Two, Team Fortress 2 and Portal.

The "Orange Box Engine" is the common engine used for those games, the proper name is Source Engine 2007 (year of release).

Counter Strike Source and Day of Defeat Source were later ported to this engine.

If you have any of those games, you have the Orange Box Engine.
