Why he looks like Bryan Cranston

idfk what happened , i powered on the generator and the fucking gate still didnt open , i loaded previous saves and still the same fucking result, what to do?

Entirety of Half Life 2's development repository has been leaked. 33GB of files!

This is probably everything made for Half Life 2 EVER, I think we're eating good with this one.

Some of these weapons i suggest are actually in the game just hidden in the console, or obtained through cheats.

Or weapons that were MEANT to appear in the game but got cut late in development.

-Alyx’s Gun-

One of the most missed potential weapons, however instead of retail half life 2 i think it would’ve made sense for it to appear in Episode 2 and have it as your primary pistol/smg before giving it back to Alyx when she finnally gets revived.

-The stunstick however-

is available and it’s viewmodel is also finnished. You can get it by typing “stunstick_enable 1” and instesd of getting 7% battery you can get it as a second melee weapon, does it have anything interesting?

….no…

….Does it deal…more damage then the crowbar….?

….no….but it’s cool…

-Now the flaregun is interesting, it’s used by combine soldiers and metrocops in the game as a way to see through the dark-

It’s like the revolver- except- well it shoots red flares that if you hit an enemy with you can set them on fire. It would’ve been cool in Ravenholm or during highway 17 or dark parts of the game.

-SLAM-

I find it amusing how this weapon appears in deathmatch and gmod but not HL2? It’s a shame because i think it would’ve been really cool.

I think this weapon likely would’ve been obtained around Nova prospekt and probably had a role in Entanglement as you set up traps for the combine.

It would’ve been useful in sections of games where you have to set up traps for the combine.

MMHHHMMHH TAU CANNON MY BABBBYY MHHHH I MISS YOU SO MUCH MMMHH HHMMHHHHH

It’s such a SHAME they got cut. Hmph. AND IT HAD IT’S OWN DIALOUGE TOO! Hmmph.

This apparently includes old concept art of characters, i personally dont have a link to it though, still thought everyone here should know

Will you be celebrating today? And how?

But no it was because he exploded his casserole in the microwave

I beat Half-Life 2 for the first time recently, so I'm very engaged with the franchise, also because of the recent leaks about HL3 and Episode 3. Someday I intend to do a full drawing of Freeman and other characters, I went practically a year without drawing, so I'm still a little bit rusty. For an unpretentious drawing, I really like the result.

Using Claude Code, I have ported the first three chapters of half life fully to bonelab. everything is interact-able and I plan to eventually have the full campaign playable. here is a list of features:

Half-Life chapters 1-3 (Black Mesa Inbound, Anomalous Materials, Unforeseen Consequences) fully ported

Original maps, lightmaps, textures, models, animations, voices and music, read from your own Half-Life install(if you install mods, they become part of the level!)

Original scripted scenes and map logic: the tram ride, desk button, microwave, resonance cascade, death elevator, lasers

Buttons, valves, levers and scanners you press and turn by hand, with a haptic click

Doors you push, pull or slide yourself

Props and breakables are physics objects

Health and suit chargers that actually work

Scientists and guards with ragdoll bodies: tap them to follow or wait, shove, punch, grab and throw them, and they get back up

Crowbar, 9mm pistol, clips and grenades as real BONELAB items with Half-Life models and sounds (holsters, ammo pouch, reloading, pulling the grenade pin)

BONELAB guns hurt Half-Life enemies, with blood, bullet holes and scorch marks

HEV suit wrist display for health, armor and ammo, a fist-to-head flashlight, and suit damage warnings

Zombies, headcrabs, houndeyes, vortigaunts, bullsquids and barnacles with the original attacks

Melee only hits if the enemy’s arm actually reaches you, so you can dodge

Enemies fight scientists and guards too, and Barney shoots back

Half-Life style menu with quick save, autosave, 6 slots and chapter select. Press it with your finger, open it by tapping your wrist

Dying loads your last save

Footsteps that match the floor, plus a red glow and a buzz in the matching hand showing where damage came from

if anybody is interested in playtesting, feel free to dm me on discord, username: benkhai170

If you don’t see the value of this, imagine throwing a barrel onto a headcrab, stealing a gun from a hecu soldier and watching them run away, or throwing around scientists. I’ve said all I have to.. hehe..

Got a collector’s edition tin a while back, and today I’ve decided to go through the hint book.

There’s some pretty interesting guides and concept arts in the booklet, thought I’d share with you lot!

I made these in Weird Gun Game, the first one is the new render, second one is the OG

Im making my own hl map into half life 1 but its stuck in parsing game ressources

I saw this like forever but i thought everyone knew of it but online i found nothing.
when you left click and swing the crowbar in half life 2 then while it is out of frame hold RMB the crowbar seems to tilt a little to the left, if you let go it tilts back into where it normally lies. did they scrap a feature or something?

I made this a year ago. It's destroyed now. :(

Took me weeks to build.

This seems like a good place to post the highlights of our Half-Life cosplay era. We loved doing these, and still talk about doing more, but the Doc and I aren't getting any younger and he's not sure a graying Freeman is something that people want to see. Enjoy, or not, it's up to you!

I've been on this sub for years and I'm a huge Half-Life fan. Half-Life is the main reference for the FPS I'm making solo, so I wanted to share this here. This isn't the final version, the town is still a blockout.
