The Nesting Grounds

A Prologue to the "Xen Survivor" map series (which is in hiatus, for now).

Play as Dr. O'Donnell, one of the surviving members of the Black Mesa Survey Team.
Escape the derelict lab and enter The Nesting Grounds, a vast, open testing area used by the Research and Development team to study the Xen Wildlife.

1): Subscribe to the addon, and wait for the download to finish completely.
2): Run Black Mesa.
3): Press tilde (~) to bring up the console.
3b): Alternatively, add "-console" to your launch parameters (without the " ")
4): Type "map nest" (again, without the " ") into the console and press Enter. You are now playing the map!
(if that doesn't work, try typing "map bm_nest").

• The game sometimes crashes when entering the Generator room (additional puzzle room). It seems to be a bug related to the physics engine, not to the map, and I can't manage to replicate it fully in order to bypass it.
  
  HOW TO FIX: Reloading a save file won't cut it. You have to restart the map from zero (type "map bm_nest" in the console).

This map has been in development for almost a year. Sure, some time has been spent on other work, fixing bugs within the new Black Mesa engine, and some on general procrastination, but it's a relief to finally publish it and move on to more exciting stuff.

Please leave any feedback in the comments, I know that there is a lot to improve on. I've made some mistakes during the development of this map, and I'm fully aware of those.

I can't wait for Xen to release and to finally be able to try out some ideas I've been thinking about for a long time. If you enjoy this map, be sure to stick around.

That said, if you enjoy the map, consider donating a few pennies:

If you are interested in the post-mortem and the .vmf of this map, please contact me through Steam, or use the email at the end of the map. I always read them :)

Cheers, and have fun!
