Watched the actual count down (from literally 5 seconds) and it went to release.blackmesasource.com which was forbidden. :( Not a good launch start...
 
I'm in the middle of downloading the torrent as we speak.

So much excitement.

Turns out nothing but the torrents work and I'm behind a firewall.  :cry: When I get home though....

Does anyone know which profile should I edit on nvidia inspector 1.9.6.6? I use the sdk on steam? Just would like to experiment with the nvidia options (yes I know I'm greedy but I do that with all games to see the difference). Is this possible? I noticed that the mod is installed in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\sourcemods\BMS" but there's a hl2.exe in my "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\leonhartgr\source sdk base 2007" folder. When I try to associate the hl2.exe in that folder it doesn't allow it which means there is already a profile. but as I notice the default profiles are Half-Life 2 (associated .exe should be in half-life 2\hl2.exe. hl2.exe) some otheres for deathmatch, episode 1, episode 2, cinematic mod etc. and a half-life source (exe in half-life source\hl2.exe). But of course not Black mesa profile because it's new. I will do a research about this in black mesa forums. If someone knows he will save me much time. Thanks!

edit: Ok I figured it out. It was clearly the Half-Life 2 profile

Well for anyone interested I used those nvidia inspector settings and noticed some improvement with LOD -3000 and some other tweaking. Well all full in Black Mesa Video Options (yes even depth of field)

my specs:
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium x64-based PC
Intel® Core™ i5-2310 CPU @ 2.90GHz, 3101 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 4
Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 8,00 GB
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti (306.23 win7 64bit drivers)

Runs really smooth! I'll make a video if any of you ask me to. If anyone has any suggestion please let me know.

Thanks!

Go figure, Portal and Half-Life are in the same universe, part of the same canon.

I wonder how well this will run on Wine. Probably pretty well, I've had very little trouble with anything else I've tried so far.
 
Downloading now.  If only Metroid SR388 would show its face again...

AM2R is looking closer to completion. With no news of MSR388 for the past two years (at least) we can probably assume the indefinite hiatus is going to linger (ala Homestar Runner).
