After hearing of the leaked Threewave mod in February (and apparently tracking down a complete version from a Vietnamese FTP server) McVicker worked with a programmer going by the handle PixelMiner to fix the outstanding issues making the mod unplayable.
That's where Valve News Network's Tyler McVicker comes in. Trying to run it online crashed the game immediately, and even running a local version forced you to deal with missing textures and broken spawn points. The only problem with the Half-Life version of Threewave revealed by the hack was that it was hopelessly broken. Online discussion suggests Valve was planning to officially release the ported mod in 2001, but the content didn't officially see the light of day until the 2003 server hack (coincidentally, Threewave author David "Zoid" Kirsch was hired by Valve in 2008 and still works there to this day). Threewave sees some largely cosmetic changes in the move from Quake to Half-Life-a big polygonal statue "Quad Damage" logo is replaced with Half-Life's iconic lambda, for instance-but the provenance of the core maps is unmistakable. Buried in a leaked folder called "wmods" (in a subfolder named "3wave") was a level pack for Half-Life's Deathmatch Classic containing replicas of all the official maps from the Quake Threewave mod.
