Steam user Sub-Zero1324 has released an impressive early alpha mod which shows huge potential. Source: This Steam Thread and the new Half-Life 2 Deathmatch Revolution website.
Valve has released a beta SDK and it has various fixes for hl2DM. All slam issues are now fixed and also the third person animations are fixed as well as all the effects and I am releasing a mod soon witch will use the new sdk - orange box.
I had a quick play around with it last night - Damn impressive. The Tau Cannon behaves almost like it did originally without the issues presented byHL2DM pro. Movement, speed are fluid - just need to test in an online environment.
