| About Azure Sheep |
|
|
|
Azure Sheep is a
single player mod for Half-Life.
It requires Half-Life version 1.1.0.0 or up.
The player is one of the Barney guards that is on post in one of
the entrances of the BlackMesa facility.
When the chaos starts you realize that Kate, your college, code
name 'Azure Sheep' is in the complex and in great danger.
You decide to
rescue her...

| Story |
|
|
|
Barney is a
security guard, well Barney at the moment is just Barney, or,
well, “Just Barney”, because with all the recent mess at Black
Mesa he can't remember his whole name ;)
Just Barney didn't
want to be a security guard but, you know life, he was lead to be
one; he had a secret dream, he was writing a novel and...but well
this is another story.
Barney has another
dream: to become a hero and rescue a princess, nothing more.
Now, when the big
mess occurred, he was in the first security post of Black Mesa and
a colleague of him, Kate, (codename “Azure Sheep”) seems to be
trapped in. Barney will go and try to rescue her, what an
occasion... |

| Tips |
|
|
|
- |
Azure Sheep is prepared to play Half-Life's
soundtrack, so don't forget to insert the CD. |
|
- |
Remember that in the first part of Azure Sheep you are
a normal Barney with very little armor and without a
HEV Suit . You will have to carefully plan your steps
if you want to live. |
|
- |
Kate doesn't attack water based monster. |
|
- |
Kate will
stop following you when using some things (like a retina scanner).
She has to be hired again after using it. |
|
- |
Don't leave Kate
to far behind because she may not be able to follow
you and you never know when she may be usefull. |
|
- |
Don't get in the way of Kate
when she wants to use a retina scanner. |
|
- |
When the Kate
Medic Kit is selected Kate
will not move out of the way to let you pass, you will
have to select another weapon if you want for her to
move out of the way.
|
|
- |
If you notice that the maps are too dark don't forget
to set the gamma correction.
|
| - |
A 3D card is recommended but not needed.
|
|

| Bugs |
|
|
|
- |
When using lifts that have doors if a door is blocked
the lift may not work properly. To fix that load a
game that you saved before using the lift.
|
|
- |
Sometimes the doors don't open because of a dead monster near them. To
fix it explode the monster.
|
|
- |
Sometimes Kate
doesn't follow the player. This happens because Kate
can't find a path to follow the player. To fix this
try to rehire her again or to walk against her so she
moves out of your way and by doing that going to a
place where she can find the path to follow you.
|
|
- |
Sometimes Kate
don't walk across an area because there is a dead monster
in the way. To fix it explode the monster.
|
|
- |
In the second map of the 'LAST STEP'
chapter, the Special Force
that jumps the wall very rarelly may became
imune to bullet fire. To kill him just blow him up.
