HL2 EP1 "black hole grenade"

[billfottle]

i want one

[TheDoofuspower101]

divide by zero

[Grayhamism]

IT DOESN'T APPE

AR IN THE CONSOLE!!!!

[xavier6757]

Sexy.

[MrRougeace]

console:

divide by zero :P

[Aleksyew]

i discovered this by accident while playing a custom portal map

[omgI15m]

meanwhile, in the 5th dimension.....

[Boomer2101]

@omgI15m combine " WTF!!"

[SandOprods]

Doesn't work anymore probably 'cause of May update.

[GGigabiteM]

@SandOprods

The reason the hopwire grenade doesn't work anymore is because Valve moved most of their older games to the OB version of Source so they didn't have the extra baggage of maintaining several older engine versions.

It's too bad really because the Ep1 engine was the most stable version of Source that balanced technology with lean hardware requirements.

[WasteOfAmmunition]

most. epic. weapon. evar.

[mustafacan94]

Holly shit !! It can kill a stider 

[DGBloodyGameplay]

@mustafacan94 its because the hop wire was made for killing them before the magnason device came in episode 2 so they replaced the wire wiht the magnasson

[pulliainen117]

how do you get that list? i tried ewery button and didn't get the list :(

[PhoenixDownSyndrome]

I can't get this to work either, just says "Unknown command: hopwire_vortex". It's in HL2 Episode 1, and I have the original HL2 installed as well. Any ideas?

[4AfterTheFact]

Hey, this doesn't work for me :(

I might have a different version of the game. Lame.

[superficialWounds]

cool! why isnt it readily available in the game?

[poopskinTheLiar]

that would be a cool weap for Ep3...

[webmasale]

Half life 3 will be presented in the siggraph in august.

[egnost]

The code for this is, in the console: "hopwire_vortex 1", then "give weapon_hopwire".

[flippyyyyfan9]

Can u think of this in Portal where u use it against the Computerboss :D

[P3RF3CTD3ATH]

This should definately be included in Half-Life 2: Episode 3.

[sudas77]

wtf???????!??!@?!

[randgarr]

As I say: "Holy Macarena!" LOL

I have got to look up the cheat code!

[APOSTEL6]

aha Console

[T0by24]

o_O

THAT WAS FUCKING AWESOME! 8O

[stider5734]

this works for portal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[superdartio]

tell how????????

[Crash22203]

Looks a lot like a rollermine, but the colour is just different. Oh well. That must've been a cheap weapon.

[flea925]

since its a prototype weapon they didnt bother to make a seperate model for it.

[fullmetalmc]

I cant believe they didnt at least have that as a new weapon

[mitchr793]

It crashes the game like crazy.

[fullmetalmc]

yeah but I think they wouldve fixed that if they had released it

[00D00]

sk_max_hopwire 999

there. all the black holes you could ever need.

[MARIO640000]

the black hole grenade kill the npc's gods ???

[CptCool2]

wtf is an npc god

[FPR]

eeemm, npcs that cant be killed?, almost everygame has at least one

[ltuninja]

no problem.

[ltuninja]

source recorder is a built in recorder to all source powered games.

It doesnt slow your pc down while recording so its great!

look it up how to use it :)

[ltuninja]

fraps probably

or with source recorder

[ubercharger9000]

sv_cheats 1

hopwire_vortex 1

give weapon_hopwire

[Ontite]

hahaha! that was awesome, i never knew about it. now i don't have the game =/

[GRANUALES]

Thats just wow. The only way to describe it.

[Vleesball]

"hopwire_vortex 1" "give weapon_hopwire"

[antiego1]

some narration in ep2 (when you're introduced to the magnusson device) it say that this would suck things into an extremely dense singularity which could then be _picked up with the gravity gun and hurled at enemies_, personally I think that is almost as cool as the black hole effect itself.

[DONChuto]

LOL...but what about both? i like black holes... there's nothing that can't stop them... not even anti-matter... (wich is also part of the universe)

[antiego1]

hmm but black holes don't necessarily destroy things do they? noone knows where matter ends up once it goes through one, and I think I read that once a black hole is gone the matter re-appears (correct me on that one if I am mistaken). While people would be killed by the spaghettifying effect, inanimate objects could remain intact, whereas when anti-matter and matter meet they cancel each other out and turn into gamma radiation, definitely destroying EVERYTHING, whereas black holes might not.

[DONChuto]

Mmmm... True.... anyway i like both of 'em!

[KristoferGrey]

Actual the energies surrounding black holes is so big that they tear apart any matter near them.

[friskydeadman]

actually black holes are not holes at all so nothing can go through them, they are just extremely dense objects created when the star they used to be collapsed due to it running out of fuel to sustain the fire.

[friik100]

They Just have very big gravity and They suck everything inside of them. Even light...

[MrPortalkidlol]

.....i never met a singl kid that has next to the EXACT point of fiew when it came to black holes, that was almost my exact words in my 4th grade report! cool!! and now i suspect that since  not a single particle cant trully mix only mingle togeher that a block hole may destroy or dissapate a larger, more combustible object and ppl think black holles suck in but rely they dont scatter any light creating, no color, :l

[antiego1]

hehe, whatever you say.

[antiego1]

wow

[lancebladeson]

the nade should destory the matter........ as in the combines.... not spit them back out

[Bigfatgiant]

my hopwire causes my game to crash.. is that normal?

[NyHoK]

Yes if your PC cant handle it

[Out4Blood4CA]

To enable console, go into options, keyboard options, advanced tab, and check the enable developer console box.

Then press ~ or `.

It is above tab and to the left of 1.

So many people play TF2 and HL2, and never even read a manual or look through the options menu...

[GreyAcumen]

Well, considering that Orange Box didn't even include a manual, I don't see why that part is surprising.

As for the options, why do you think such things as "default settings" exist? It's so people can just PLAY the game, y'know? Play? That thing that is the whole point of a game?

What gets me is the people who see this, want to do it, and THEN don't even bother checking their options or doing a basic google search, but it's hardly a requirement of simply owning the game.

[lorreva]

How Did U Get The Console Up? Please Reply Im Using Garrys Mod "GMOD" Do I Have TO Get SMOD To Have The Console?

[Zethe92]

where do u go when u get sucked into it

[ZOMGKITTY]

You're essentially crushed out of existence.

[superdartio]

nowhere.

[peepsbates]

u get sucked in and it causes and error

[Lolzygag]

u get suck in, and die, kinda funny, cuz all u see is red

[runie360]

u die

[runie360]

i see why they took this out. every time i use it i kill alyx

[killa524]

so this only works in episode 1?

[crazybombard]

yup

[sergi5122]

u can get it in hl2 by installing smod

[valvepwns]

lol nice weapon anyway for the people who need the codes, openy our console and type this:

hopwire_vortex 1

give weapon_hopwire

that should work

[Freshjonng]

LMAO YES!!

[nadriel666]

yo can you tell me the code please message me ot reply me :P

[DethiusWoW]

ahaahah owned

[anonymous8700]

omg i want that as a swep in gmod.

[gameguy334]

fucking AWSOME!!! i want that

[Petersaberros]

whoa, that`s good

[TheDarkness2112]

neeaat.

[darkfiremat]

1 thing  XD

[marsnoob]

holy macaroni that was AmAzInGlY cool

[7aji88]

I didn't know about this!! I'm gonna play EP1 another time to try this

[choobn4]

wht u put n console?

[kimailis]

hopwire_vortex 1

give weapon_hopwire

impulse 101

[thedeathwar]

is it only half life 2 ep 1 can use it?

[kimailis]

it is for epi1 too(didnt try it in epi2), but beware! alyx might die suddenly if you will use it close to her(remember the scene from epi 1 when you fall down into a place with water, 2 poison headcrabs and barnacles? i used it in there and alyx died suddenly). but she doesnt always die like that, so be carefull.

[Dimax444]

it worked for Portal

[redcat608]

your pc sucks but great vid quality

[roflman]

lol when the door blows i always smg nade them like scarface before they have a chance to react

[DarkPieman]

There's an unlimited rocket crate in that room, so I usually just go nuts with that.

[nocotufahead]

hahaha nice grenade!

[arksolo2]

to bad they cut the weapon from the game

[Gnuzzk]

maybe they add it in episode 3

[phillips27]

but maybe a bit less powerful

[Magnuspire]

I just hate that it only gives you one and that's it.

[cyp2il]

i put in give weapon_hopwire

[Reach112]

Also the code is:

hopwire_vortex 1

[Reach112]

Just like in a black hole, the objects that touch it are crushed into an extremely small state of matter, like a very powerful compressor.

[Jiggwagga]

What was the code for that?

[jetter0]

*drools* that was kl

[gareler]

nice recorder =D

[crazydave55811]

Holy shit. I wonder where they go after they get sucked in. o_o

[JetJockey87]

according to that wheelchair dude, they'd be compressed into a quantum singularity, not dying, but just like being in a car with 6 people, thats only designed for 2.

[crazydave55811]

Oh. So it's not, like, somewhere in outer space or another dimension? lol But a quantum singularity sounds like the end of a black-hole, and you'd probably die from the compression.

[PwnagePanther]

No, it would be similar to jumping in HL2 with a gravitational pull of 0 and then setting it to 10000 whilst in mid air. Pulled in, and ripped apart.

[JetJockey87]

ahh yes, always fun with a wanker admin on Deathmatch, everyones having fun floating around orbing and throwing toilets until WHAM!

[mushroomjay]

The entities are deleted.

[DarkPieman]

The original plan for this weapon was for all entities absorbed by the black hole to be compressed into a little super-dense orb that could be thrown at other enemies, etc.

[YayOrNay]

damn

[vstman]

cool effect, and a game crashing effect.

[CERNOBE]

I read about his in the "Content cut from Half-Life 2" wikipedia article (there's a lot of ineresting info there) and dear god! A secret weapon? HL2 is the least game I expected would have a secret weapon...

[kevaughanshiu]

bad

[ClaudiusDK]

ps. only works in HL2 ep1

[ClaudiusDK]

oh yes, the good old:

sv_cheat 1

hopwire_vortex 1

give weapon_hopwire

[rastafox]

no, Q3 2007 and ep3 in 2008 or 2009 :( i found it in wikipedia

[BicolBandit]

[bigfluff73]

[zoubab]

hopwire_vortex 1

give weapon_hopwire

[VampiricGuy]

omg i gotta know wat u typed in console cuse that was so cool man

[saw1833]

No no, it's not fake, but it was excluded due to it sucking in mission-critical objects sometimes or something of the sort, and it would crash the game, or make it unplayable.

[RoboKenshiro]

what the freakin hell was that? that grenade just sucked'em in and pow. they're gone. do they sell those at sports shops?

[Xdarkstrike55]

THAT WAS SO KOOL wad did u type in ur console?

[discjockykid]

Throw it and press fire once again to starting sucking in whatever is near...

[saivert]

and prolly some hgrenade console command as well.

All the three episodes are made as one big game that they just split up into episodes. They made stuff for ep.2 and ep. 3 that they did not use in ep. 1 but which is present in the game code.

[TheKlink]
