https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2664792885


This little Modpack contains some mods that can help you to recreate Half-Life 2 feeling in Garry's Mod!

No random bs mods that doesn't do anything to enhance your gameplay



Important

Garry's Mod is NOT designed for Half-Life 2. There WILL be bugs and some things might not work.
But overall it should work good enough. Please read the minor details section or you might run into some troubles!

Also,you need Half-Life 2/Episode 1/Episode 2 for this modpack.
Do not complain about random bugs in comments if you use pirate version of the games.


Start options

-HEV suit enabled: Yes
-Ammo limit: 0 (This will make all the guns use the default Half-Life 2 value)
-Realistic fall damage: Yes
-Give everyone weapon/god mode: Disabled

-Go to your Sandbox settings on Spawn menu
Set the weapon switch speed to 1.
This will set all the switch speeds of your weapons to their default value.

Open your console with " key.
Type sv_friction 6 to console, this will set your default moment speed to Half-Life 2's default speed.

(You can set the walking speed back to default with "sv_friction 8" without quates).

Single Player exclusive Save/Load option

In Single Player,you can actually save and load the game with console commands.
Normally,these commands are bind to F6 and F7 (QuickSave/QuickLoad).

You can even do this for your normal gameplay. Such as making a whole NPC fight scene. Save it and reload it again and again.
OR you can use it for your Single Player maps.

Simply,when you want to save your game. Type this to your console:

save currentgame
(You can type anything instead of "Current game" thats just a name. You can name it 1 or 2 or something you can remember)
Just quick save and done!
When you die,you can quicly reload your save with:
load currentgame
Where the "currentgame" is the save you named.


Minor details

As you can see,there are a few mods that seems irrelevant with the whole pack.
Let me explain what they do and why you need them.

Half-Mod

This is not neccesary for the modpack UNLESS you're going to play Multiplayer.

This mod allows level transition in multiplayer and makes it so you can use the Spawn menu.
Unless you want to play with your friends,you can unsubscribe from that.

You can also play many other custom maps with this mod. Not only Half-Life 2!

Quick Bloom/HDR brightness Fix
If you're playing Garry's Mod with the highest settings. Some Half-Life 2/Episodic maps have CRAZY amount of bloom. So bad to the point you can't even look at the screen. This little mod takes care of that problem. It is recommended but it's not neccesary.

Weapon: Setup, Transfer And Restore
Since there is no save/load option for multiplayer. This mod simply allows you to carry your weapons even after death. (Not your armor tho)

NPC Tools
These tools are SOO important.
It might seem like a simple little tool that doesn't effect anything. Which is true. But it needed in some points of campaings such as "Low Life" section in Episode 1.

This mod has an option to make an NPC unkillable. If any important character dies in game. (Like Alyx) you need to restart the WHOLE level again. So you can make them unkillable just for the sake of not playing all the chapter again.


Walk on Moving Props

This mod simply allows you to walk on props.
It's not perfect but it does the job. Since in some chapters in Half-Life 2,you need to walk on objects to proceed.
But you can't walk on moving props in Garry's Mod. This mod fixes that problem.

Half-Life 2 customizable HUD

This hud recovers some Original Half-Life 2 HUD features such as warning the player when their gun has low ammo.
Of course you need to set it yourself first.
You can read the description of the addon. But incase you don't want to:

Press C > Press Half-Life 2 customizable HUD icon > Press files > Press Half-Life 2 > Press ok.
The HUD will reload and you're ready to go!


Common bugs and fixes

Dog doesn't throw the crate!

This bug is VERY common and annoying.
The problem is,when you use your gravity gun BEFORE dog throws the crate,it bugs the game.

The simple solution is,do not use your Gravity gun UNTIL dog throws the crate. Don't press M1 or M2. Or else the crate will be invisible. You can still catch the crate tho (somehow)


I finish the (random chapter) but nothing is happening!

In some chapters,game stuck there forever. In this case a special NPC probobly stuck and can't proceed.
Sadly,there is no fix to that problem. Try to select the next chapter from the Half-Life 2 map pool.
