With todays update, we bring you a few new files.
The following files have been added:

I've added 16 new Half-Life models. (4 crowbar, 12 player).
And 7 new Specialists models. (5 Desert Eagle, 2 Raging Bull)

Making it a grand total of 23 new files.

In relation to the site, I will soon be expanding the sections to include other files (sprites and sounds and the likes). Custom content for these sections isnt as easily come by unfortunately, so i dont imagine they'll grow at any great rate, but perhaps some files will spur others to submit.

Thats it for this weeks update, enjoy!

Allow me to introduce Imperio59, our newest programmer! He has joined in the fight to make this mod happen, and will be helping us with the final stages of making a fully functional game. Its beta tester time :)
Stargate SGC has been working for over a year now to bring Half-life fans a stargate mod that is worth playing to keep them happy until Half-life 2, and the SGC for HL2 mod project.
For several months SGC has lay dormant, waiting for HL2, but now, due in part to the large amount of work Dark Matter has done in his spare time, we are once again perusing the completion of the SGC HL1 multiplayer demo mod.
Finally players will no longer have to put up with inaccurate, lowpoly, and just flat out ugly models. Stargate SGC not only has all new highpoly weapon models that do not use photo-skins, but we plan to bring the player a whole new experience that is pleasing to both Half-life and Stargate fans alike.
In order to get this game out the door and on to Steam, Stargate SGC needs some help. We require a skilled player modeler, and a good skinner to sustain our current momentum If you are interested in trying out for the team, please contact Ranger by means of AIM (RangerHLR), E-mail, or visit our website, post on our forums.
Here are some screenshots for you :)

Yes i do believe it was an April Fools joke :)
3.5 is well under way, and we have a lot in store for players once we release. In addition to the new game types, updated AI, and Team Deathmatch modes (now you can have clan play with monsters!), we have two unique weapons which were originally planned for Sven Co-op Half-Life 2:
Portable Headcrab
Suprise your teammates and friendly units with this portable Headcrab. Provides hours of fun, sneak up on them and give them a suprise! Side effects may include lacerations, blood loss and zombification.

Otis Summoning Device
Short on backup? Need some friendly units, fast? Pull out an Otis Summoning Device and watch those friendlys appear! Likely places to find Summoning Devices include- Cafeterias, Lockers, Lunchboxes, Security checkpoints.

In addition to Tor (The character that helps you in the svencoop maps - see below), another new monster is also making an appearance in version 3.5. Think you are safe indoors? Think again! First there was the baby garg, now there's a Miniature Apache! It might look like a remote control helicopter but it packs a sting! Usually flies in groups, can be found resting at night on powerlines. It uses complex AI routines to navigate the world and stays hidden when sneaking up on prey by checking for occlusion hulls in the world.

Well, have fun with 3.0 for now while we continue to work on 3.5. Sven has been away on holiday for the past 2 months in the Bahamas, using the donation money to pay his way. Sven Viking sends his thanks! If you would like to help us pay for more vacations, Click Here to support the mod!
