Dark Truths places the player in command of Captain Hunt, member
of the Black Operations division of Section Six. Taking command of
her fellow Black Operators, Cap. Hunt will explore new and old
sections of the Black Mesa Research Facility. However, in the end, it
shall fall on her shoulders to plunge headlong into the deepest
sectors of the research lab to discover the dark truth about the
Resonance Cascade.
Currently, only a single-player section is
planned, though this is open to change. In addition, a Source engine
port will be considered when the mod reaches such a point in
development.
The reason for development of this mod for the
aging Half-Life engine is mainly to aid the team members. The engine
is very familiar to them. Many of its limitations are well known. The
age of the engine will force us to keep our wits about us, and not
get caught up in experimentations.

Most of the Opposing Force weapons and monsters
