[DEFINITIVE] Half-Life 2 Thread


Recommended Posts

no bugs here. i think most bugs are from peoplesl who have dirty machines. i reformated and every game that had bugs in it before now work perfect. audio stuttering is just from badass audio in the game and not enough ram on peoples machines.

how come im not getting the patch?

Did you restart Steam? If you did and you don't see it, try checking your Steam monitor... the patch is really tiny and it only showed up for a couple of seconds... I just caught it in time. That could be why as well. :p

Use to have allot of stuttering, but same as devinlamothe, its now very minor/almost gone :)

@fo20: The audio stutter was due to the textures being loaded into ram....read the news page, thats where it tells u :)

@yert*: U have to restart Steam, and it wont popup and say "Updateing Half Life2" the Steam systray icon changes to its normal updateing icon, and then goes back to normal (although u can use the monitor to look)....only took a minute if that to update for me :p

Had the stuttering problem, but then again all games do that on my computer (damm you nVidia GeForce FX 5200).

Apart from that, no gameplay problems or crashes.

I got a BSOD 1/4 thru the game it had to do with the nv4_disp.dll file.. seems like a driver issue at the part of the game before it ran great :) Using 66.93 WHQL driver on Geforce FX 5600 256mb

Last Great War was originally being developed for UT2003, wasn't it? I guess there are quite a few mod teams who jumped ship from other engines - ideas that have probably been left on the backburner for too long and won't develop into anything.

Even still, I don't think there's any denying that HL2 is the future of modding for years to come.

I got a question, I finished the game a few days ago and don't recall ever getting the pulse rifle (sp?) ... did I miss something or was it pulled from the game?

you should've gotten it somewhere a bit after ravenholm, but after that, lots of combine soldiers and all the combine assasins (guys in white) have them. maybe you did get it and didn't know it was the pulse rifle, it's the second one in the "3" column

I am stuck on the "Anticitizen One" section where I am in some type of forge where I get only so high by way of a rising, movong platform. I getas far as a set of blue doors that I can't open- then can't get any farther! Frustruating! Any suggestions? And how do I take screenies?

TIA,

Jim

    • It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.
    • What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
    • Outlook classic is inherently better than new outlook, for a number of reasons. That said, if the only reason people need office is to read email, they should just use thunderbird.
    • Windows 11 is a big thumbs down from me. I used for a period of a few days while it was in insider and windows 10 was the main OS, and realised it wasn't for me. I am still waiting for Windows to be tolerable again, a shame as at one point I was very pro Microsoft.  
    • Classic outlook, not only does it have a much fuller feature set, it doesn't include Microsoft attempting to sync my emails from my servers to theirs. If classic outlook is ever removed from office, and the version I paid for in 2021 stops working for some reason, I'll use Thunderbird.
