Does anyone know a place where I can download the 2015 version of black mesa?

[StrikeFour]

I want to play black mesa, but my computer with 256 mb of vram can't run it, I tried everything, but nothing worked, so if anyone has a link or somewhere to download black mesa 2015, please tell me

PD: why the 2015 version? Well, I tried the 2012 version (the one available in moddb), but it asks me to download the 2007 sdk and it's somewhat annoying, also, I don't like the weapon models they have.

It's an interesting question. I did a little bit of research on the subject.

September 14, 2012: Black Mesa was released as a Source 2007 mod. It can be downloaded from the (formerly) many mirrors available on the official website. This version has received no further updates.
May 5th 2015: The mod was released as a game on Steam as an early access game, upgraded to Black Mesa branch of Source 2013.
March 6, 2020: The Steam version left early access with the 1.0 Update.
November 28, 2020: Its last major update (version 1.5) was released, making Black Mesa the Definitive Edition.

There's a beta branch for the game that goes back to May 14, 2016. Nice and easy too, no fiddling required. The steamdb page shows it best. That's probably the closest you'll be able to get to that version and it will require you to buy the game on Steam.

I've seen this linked around, but I haven't tried it. I don't know if it would be what the OP is looking for: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2378420148

I think you can consider this as another option.

ummm, I'll try it when I manage to buy a legal copy of the game, even so, thanks a lot for the idea
