Manhack Arcade 2D Flash Game?

Discussion in 'Creative Media' started by Sheeplie, Jul 30, 2014.

    Sheeplie Hi.

    If you've researched Half-Life 2 Beta lore, chances are you've heard about the manhack arcade.

    If not, then here you go!

    So I was thinking, what if someone made a 2D flash game to replicate the concept, and then a plugin was created to make a simple gui panel that opened the game's URL when pressing E on the i17 arcade game prop?

    I think that'd be pretty cool.

    It does sound very interesting actually. I suppose it'd be asking for too much but if someone were to also take the animation from the citizens when they are using the machine it'd be fantastic.

    I'd really like to see this, it'd be a great thing to make a plugin with :p

    Sheeplie Hi.

    Yeah but, it'd literally be a 2D based flash game so that the citizens wouldn't know what they were doing.

    On a side note though, that idea might be cool Dusp, you n' me will try to replicate it for Metropolice.
     
  9. Oh, I know. Use the uh - What's it, NutScanners? I think that's the .rar file, anyway. Use the overlay from that, or create your own.

    That's not an overlay, it just sets your graphics to the lowest as possible as it can and changes a few console variables "That's why it takes a while to change" I'll show you of an example but within HL2 because I played it on a crappy laptop that one time.

    Sheeplie Hi.

    I still say a 2D based birds eye view flash game would be better.

    TheHipster rhenz is a fairly decent fellow

    Yeah. I can actually get FA:S 2 to function with it with only 555 lines of code.
    Gotta love it.

    its because i mentioned a guy named c-nut in all of my posts and kuro doesn't like hearing/having anything to do with nuts.


    kuro is a chick now btw he sent pics.

    lol, kuro is getting his supervisors to do his espionage.

    maybe the supervisor snipping is him... he's doing it so we don't get onto him.

    but his real name is actually in there. it's an anagram. you see, look:

    tomo's name is 'cunt'. omg, illuminati confirmed.

    What about if it wasn't a flash game at all? Instead it was like this. You type a command in like /addarcade or something and the model spawns in etc.

    Using the entity spawns a manhack somewhere nearby on the map, then the game is literally a reality. Though, I can imagine this being too complex.
