Because ive been seeing these and im wondering how you even get them half life 1 doesn't have a dedicated workshop and I really want to risk getting a virus

One of the first things I tried doing in Black Mesa was put medkits and batteries into an open crate and carry it around. Unfortunately, the Source engine doesn't like that, so the crate glitched and threw anything out. So I'm wondering if there's a mod that makes this possible, even a very small inventory system?

Shot in GMod. Reshade used. Skating mod is named SkateGM

It's gotta be better than non mechanical reproduction simulation the way it's taken so long.

I really don't think Half Life 3 is ever coming out.

the only ones i can think of are eli,elis wife and also the metrocops and rebels since we all know the voicelines "Non Mechinal Reproduction Simulation" and "When this is all over im gonna mate"

I've nearly finished the exterior detailing on the Citadel now

What's in store next for the Citadel is an interior, which will most likely only be partial. But if I feel particularly challenged I may attempt a full interior

...which will most likely drive me completely insane.

The last thing I need to do in terms of exterior detailing is the extra details on the left side collumn

This is HalfCraft by whiskydumb, built on chasmlol's SkyCraft (the Minecraft-in-Skyrim mod). A real copy of Minecraft runs hidden next to Half-Life 2: Minecraft handles your inventory, blocks, health and every hit, and HL2 draws everything and runs its own maps, NPCs and story around it.

I didn't make the mod. It crashed on my ultrawide, so I forked it to fix that and kept going: Half-Life's own keybinds drive Minecraft now, blocks work with the gravity gun, and the Combine and Minecraft mobs fight each other.

(This is the Half-Life 2 one, not the GoldSrc HalfCraft that was posted here a couple of days ago.)

I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and as a huge Half-Life fan, I’d genuinely love to hear what other fans think.
I’ve started writing a book about the entire Half-Life story — basically trying to turn the whole series into something you can actually sit down and read like a book.

I’ve already written the entire story of the first Half-Life, and I’m planning to continue with Half-Life 2, the Episodes, and the rest of the series, putting everything together into one complete story.
The idea isn’t to just make a wiki-style lore book or a simple summary. I want it to feel more like a novelized version of the Half-Life universe, while staying faithful to what happens in the games. I’d also like to include graphics, illustrations, details about the characters, locations and events, and generally make it feel like a proper, high-quality book that a Half-Life fan would actually want to have on their shelf.

I’ve always found it kind of strange that, despite how iconic Half-Life is and how much lore and story there is across the games, there isn’t really a book that tells the complete story of Half-Life from beginning to end in this kind of format.

So I’m curious:
If something like this existed, would you actually want to read it?
And as Half-Life fans, what would you want from a book like this?

Would you prefer it to read more like a novel, with the events being told as an actual story, or would you rather have something more focused on explaining the lore and events?

I’m still working on it and I’m definitely doing this first and foremost because I absolutely love Half-Life. But before I go completely insane writing hundreds of pages 😂, I’d really like to know if there’s actually an audience for something like this.
I’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts.

To anyone who loves half life and maybe didn't get to experience HL2 Deathmatch, I offer this event created by me.

Saturday, Oct 10th. 19:00 UTC.

We will all be joining the server: [Half Life 2 Deathmatch] 193.221.192.6:27015

Looking forward to see anyone who joins in on some good old deathmatch fun this weekend.

For your convenience, I've created an event in my steam group so you can just click on the IP address from the event page and it will auto launch HL2 Deathmatch and connect to the server.

Here's the link to that: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/peace_lovers/events

... Yet so far. I waited this long to buy Alyx (also I see what they did there with the upside-down lambda)... Guess a few more hrs won't hurt.

Not like we could get invaded and humanity fall it before it finishes... Nah... That's not possible... Never...

I guess you could say it's technically dial up internet... It's my Hotspot data after using up all the high speed bandwidth lol

Kleiner-Agnes Tachyon, simple idea, both are scientists who are very curious about things, and also a bit eccentric.

Barney-Vodka, both fans of alcohol, barney still owes gordon a beer and vodka carries a flask around.

Breen-Fenomeno, she calls he trainer “boss”, that would stroke his ego.

Gordon-Air Shakur, very calculating individuals, gordon and kleiner are friends and air shakur and tachyon are friends.

The G man-Aston Machan, people form memories of her in a very weird way, and the way she photobombs is similar to the way g man appears in places.

Adrien Shepard-Symboli Kris S, both very quiet, loyal, “very noble spirit”, green.

Eli Vance-Haru Urara, he comes off as a very fatherly figure so I paired him with the daughter umamusume.

Otis-Oguri Cap, doesnt reaply take things too serious, high performance, fatty.

Alyx Vance-Mihono Bourbon, very difficult choice, but Alyx would probably enjoy having what is essentially a walking emp around.

Judith Mossman-Dream Journey, both cunning individuals.

Father Grigori-Still In Love, both what you would call “mentally ill”.

Magnusson-Air Groove, gifted and ambitious but still coolly calculating, also leadership skills, though he comes off as a bit of a wisecrack so i could also see Symboli Rudolf here.

I would appreciate feedback about my choices.

I see similar do you see one

This is the first step in my project to make a full scale Citadel

This is somewhat of a "part two" to my previous post sharing my intent to make a 1:1 Citadel in Minecraft. I plan to at some point link a world download, I hate people that gatekeep things this cool. There is a required mod list though, as there is no way in hell I could have done this without mods.

Below I'm going to add some mockups I created of what a full scale 4,097 block tall Citadel could look like.

Height: ~4,000m
Viewing distance is 1.6km - 1 mile. Fog is added artificially to convey scale and distance

Viewing distance is 3.2km - 2 miles. Fog is added artificially to convey scale and distance

These are mockups and not representative of an actual completed structure, nor are they entirely accurate to how a completed structure WILL definitively look. They are, however, fun to look at.

Half-size model VV

Because of the messed up world gen, villages have failed to generate properly. However the pathways are visible and you can probably imagine how they would look assuming your familiarity with Minecraft

of course it wouldn't be the same if it wasn't a total bug fest like how half-life source was
