Whoa whoa, there's nothing wrong with HL1, I got a lot of those world textures from various HL1 mods.


I'm just glad that I can keep this project alive.

But theres a diference between HL1 and HLS.
While HLS comes with a bunch of cool effects, like water shader and bumpmaps, adding this effects to HL1 requires coding experience and a lot of time.

Higher quality graphics =/= better graphics. I mean, look at Fail..er... "FakeFactory".

Excluding the shitty models, what's wrong with FakeFacory? Only Crysis has better effects...

Fakefactory's world textures are actually quite nice, but his models are complete rubbish.

Take a look at the weapons recently?

They're basically 2x'd, sharpened + grunged. That's not "Hi def", that's "double sized, sharpened and grunged".

And the new NPCs? Totally kill the HL2 feeling.

Only Crysis has better effects...

Mind you, Crysis was basically a tech demo with a plot tacked on as an afterthought, not built as a game from the ground up.

Thinking in that, you're quite right. The weapons look like toys.
And the weapon balance is ridicilous. Like the grunts in Opposing Force say "One shot, one kill".
And by nthe way, are you saying that Crysis is not a full game? Just a demo?

No, I'm saying Crysis was intended as a tech demo showing off omgwtfbbq realistic graphics with gameplay and story added in afterwards when they realized "Hay we can sell dis and get sum monniez!"

That's probably not how it happened, but that's basically what it is - a tech demo designed to show off the capabilities of the CryEngine with a quick story + a few new gimmicks added in to make it seem more innovative like the Nanosuit so they can sell it.

Tis alot like Generals, but Generals didn't rape your computer and it's mother. And Generals didn't suck completely.

Ah, ok, i understand. But everybody knows that FakeFactory has good graphics...
Soon ill post here videos from HLS:HD.
And one question for ShotgunGuy: in HLS:HD trailer on youtube, I see a nice Gargantua flame sprite. That sprite is in the SVN?

Unfortunately no, That video was shot in Garry's Mod, I used Silverlan's HL1 SNPCs.
His Garg uses the TF2 flamethrower particles.

Somebody should try putting in some of the older textures from fake factory, in to half-life source.

We also need the sd scientist from diamonds pack. Also the npc's don't talk to each other anymore in half-life source somebody needs to fix that.

Can you get that Garg? If you can get it post it here!
And the pack uses a modified scientist model, much better that the Diamond ones.
About the textures, I only create this post to put here work from another persons. I don't know how to convert textures... But theres much more better textures in HLS HD 2.0 and in the SVN.
And ShotgunGuy, you plan to make more for HLS? It will be cool if you continue the HLSHD Project!
HLS HD 2.0 + Strelok Packs + HDS Pack + SVN Content + other work = "HLS Cinematic Mod"

[Markovsky]

ShotgunGuy,  do you plan to make more for HLS? It will be cool if you continue the HLSHD Project!

YYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! :
Who needs Half-Life 1 with this beutiful work? NOBODY!!
Keep doing this awesome work, please. You are making much better the HLS gameplay experience.
And if Strelok was in this forums, I also gave him my congratulations!
Ill check FPSBanana twice a day to see if his Pack 5 is out.
Be sure you check the FPSBanana too for more skins to this great game!!
But one question, ShotgunGuy: that skins that are in your link are for G-Mod or for HL.S?
And where I can get the sprites shown in his videos? Like when the Vortingaunt attacks...

Those SNPCs are for Garry's Mod only, regular source games don't support Lua based scripts.

[redx57]

It would be awesome if they did.
