HD resolution?

[Fat Bear]

I was looking around the tau cannon's page on the hl wiki, when i saw an alternative skin for it named "HD resolution screen". I booted up half-life and looked for an option to change the game to HD, but I can't find it. Is the resolution not on half-life: source, or is the other skin a mod?

I wrote "hd resolution screen", but i was supposed to say skin.

For one, HL Wiki uses HL1 Original for all of its stuff.
and secondly, it's in the video options, "Enable HD Content if availble"

Be wary though, its really buggy and not even the original HD pack Gearbox made, its a GameBanana pack.

What are you talking about? HD pack in HL1 is not a "GameBanana" pack, it's from Gearbox.

Which one is? I was under the impression that the OP was talking about the option that says "Enable HD content if available" without modding your game or installing third party content.

When you press that option in Half-Life: Source, you load textures directly based in the Gearbox's ones. However, they are from GameBanana, and they has more details ans resolution than those ones from Half-Life. I understand you, I thought the textures from HL:S were equal to those ones used in Half-Life like you. But they are really differents. Problem is, if I am not wrong, VALVe took this textures without any kind of authoritation from GameBanana.

they also left in the custom world textures until someone reported it when the update was still being worked on and Valve completely ripped it out.

So you're claiming that Valve stole somebody's HD assets from GameBanana and put it as the HD pack for Half Life Source? Do you have any proof of this? Because they look completely identical to the original Half Life to me, and I would say I generally have a good eye for details.

Look at the HGrunt, quite clearly you don't have an eye for detail.
or the HEV Suit
or the M4

So are you people claiming that Valve stole somebody's HD assets from GameBanana and put it as the HD pack for Half Life Source? If so, do you have any proof I could see? In addition, could you tell me the difference between the "GameBanana" pack and the original? Preferably with screenshots?

I take it the screenshot in vtf edit is the HL:S HD pack and the one in Jed's HLMV is the original Half Life HD pack? And I take it "stone" is the alleged creator of this HD pack? Is there any information regarding this incident on the internet I can read? Where are these files so I can look at them myself?

Which NPC is the second screenshot's image for? If this were real, wouldn't I be able to load up HL:S and see the words "stone" written on somebody's neck?

Why would Valve do this in the first place? Why not just use the HD pack they already had for HL1?

Valve_HD for HL1
HL1_HD for HL1S
and on GameBanana its the most popular HD pack basically.

There's nothing documented about this since no one cares to notice that Valve straight up stole the files from GameBanana

About as far as it got of any of it being ripped out of the product is this, and that I already mentioned which is the world textures: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Source-1-Games/issues/1372

Which character is in the second image? I would like to see their necks for the 'stone' logo.

HGrunt, file name is stated.
