Description
The government thought Black Mesa was destroyed — a nuclear explosion in the heart of the deceased military base caused catostrophic damage, but it wasn't enough. Years later, the survivors of the horrors and destruction of the resonance cascade rebuild what remains of Black Mesa.
Being an isolated base in New Mexico, Black Mesa slowly began to rebuild into smaller "partitioned" bases; all of which being privately owned. Black Mesa had become real estate — any area that wasn't destroyed was snatched up and fought after by the surviving science, security, and even military factions. The strongest leader of these factions, the notorious "Mr. Breeden", quickly took control and stamped out any resistance. His sector of Black Mesa, due to its staggering size, resources, and fire power, became known as Momma Mesa — the mother of all privately owned Black Mesa sectors.
You, the Sven Co-op mercenary team, have been employed by Mr. Breeden himself — to do his dirty work and contain any security breaches in the base. Who knows — do a good enough job, and you might just see the light of day again.
Additional info
- Currently resides in the Best of Map Showcase.
- Unlike Incoming, which is entirely random, the map focuses on a failure/completion system — completing a mission will send you to mission A, while failing a mission will send you to mission B, and so forth. It is the first map of its kind to focus mainly on a win/lose system to choose the path of the players.
- The map contains three endings, so technically, players could complete the map with no deaths at all and still completely fail the map.
- There have been 35 beta versions of Momma Mesa thus far — if you dig around in the bored and the Momma Mesa WIP threads, you can find a nice hunk of material that never made the final cut. This map has undergone many, many changes.
- The 'Best' ending displays screenshots of features and previous areas that never made the final release.
- It is recommended that four or more players play this map.
- Maxplayers MUST be set to 32 or the server will undoubtedly crash due to the level being on the very edge of the entity limit.
- Server mods that display lots of text MUST be disabled, such as SCXP Mod or AMX mod when lots of messages are set to be displayed. Otherwise, important objectives will not be seen by the players.

No one has the time to regularly check through all the maps in BOMS to check if they still hold up to the current boms standards. Once a map goes into BOMS, it stays there. The majority of boms maps are still pretty good by todays standards, and its possible to semi-accurately judge the quality of a map by checking its release date. Boms can be considered a permanent mark of honor if you will.
How is this still a BOMS if it is too buggy to actually work?
I mean if I am not mistaken isnt a map that is a BOMS sposed to be bug free and what not?
If that aint the case then hell where are all the other maps that should be a BOMS but arent because you do complain about how buggy they are even tho they atleast can be completed unlike this map?
I tested this on 4.0b
The only issues I had are those annoying Sound Engine freezes thanks to the new Sound System.
The map was designed to run in 3.0. It was already barely even able to run then.
To prevent this from crashing do as I said in my last post to this map…
put mp_decals in your server.cfg and make it 8192 also set for both your server and clients -num_edicts 8192
That will help prevent crashes…does for me…but it is still no guarantee…

P.S. besides that tunnel part is impossible to beat in v4.0b the waypoints and spawns just dont work…
Server is already configured like that.
This map always crashes…
I do the egg mission, generator mission, sewer mission, then tunnel mission.
While fighting wave 1 in the tunnel, 10 minutes later the server freezes up.
This map works perfectly fine on a server with any size # of peeps…just set in your server.cfg mp_decals 4096…it is going to solve all your entity troubles…
bad maps i find 3 bugs 2/5
How many years later?
I thought the Xen invasion completed with the 7hour war and the Combine take over.
Maybe we dont care for Halflife timelines which is good because I never went for the whole combine thing anyhow.
Is there a way to get the WAD separately from the BSP?
