Description

Built from scratch by die-hard Half-Life fans, Half-Life 2: Remade Assets aims to provide the Source 2 community with a variety of high-quality assets.

Our assets and prefabs are built from the ground-up for VR gameplay, and contain assets that are both direct remasters of those found in the Half-Life 2 trilogy, and entirely original assets themed around Half-Life’s world, all designed to provide variety and further flesh out the setting.

As a tight-knit group of talented individuals from a number of unique backgrounds, we always strive for perfection and aim to perfect our craft. Half-Life 2: Remade Assets represents an enormous undertaking for everybody involved, and we continue to improve every day. With each pack that’s released, we look forward to raising the bar ourselves, and seeing what the community creates with what we’re able to give.


Features

Half-Life 2: Remade Assets is designed in a way that’s intended to make it as easy as possible to use, while providing the highest quality assets. Features include:

  • Matching file paths from Half-Life 2, allowing for easier porting of Source 1 .vmfs
  • Assets designed with VR gameplay in mind, including:
  • Handposes for assets where we expect player interaction
  • Interactive prefabs for assets such as cabinets and drawers, desktop items, and other machinery
  • Additional original assets themed around the Half-Life world
  • Including assets that were originally brushwork or textures in Source 1, given new life and made VR-ready in current-gen Source 2

A full list of all assets contained in this particular pack can be found here.[docs.google.com]

Per community request this pack also includes an additional showcase map, with included source files. Play through the Half-Life: Alyx addon menu to see these assets in a game environment, or open up the included .vmap to to see how they were put together.


Setup Guide
To play the included showcase map:
  1. Subscribe to this pack and allow Steam to download it fully
  2. Start Half-Life: Alyx
  3. In the main menu, navigate to "manage addons" and enable this addon
  4. Start a new game on the "showcase_hl2ra_part4" map through the "enabled addons" menu
  5. Enjoy!


To use these assets in another addon:
  1. Subscribe to this pack and allow Steam to download it fully
  2. Locate the VPK file named "2696793186" in "steamapps\workshop\content\546560\2696793186"
  3. Extract it using a tool such as VRF[vrf.steamdb.info]
  4. Place materials and models folders in "steamapps\common\Half-Life Alyx\game\hlvr_addons\[your_addon]"
  5. Place all other folders in "steamapps\common\Half-Life Alyx\content\hlvr_addons\[your_addon]"
  6. If this pack contains soundevents, add the appropriate soundevent files to a .vrman file in your addon's directory. A guide to this process can be found here.
  7. Open your addon in Half-Life: Alyx's workshop tools.

That's it! At this point, all assets should be visible from the asset browser, and usable in your addon!

I tried disabling and unsubscribing to all the addons, but it still shows missing textures. Will I have to reinstall the game for it to fix?
Skummeh Apr 22, 2023 @ 1:40pm 
Make sure you don't have the addons enabled unless you are playing a custom map that requires them.
noodleman Apr 22, 2023 @ 12:34pm 
I downloaded these addons for a campaign, but since I downloaded the addons all the buildings I see outside no matter what mod i'm playing has missing textures. When I load into a mod and look at the citadel, it's just a missing texture model of the HL2 citadel. If you guys know why this is happening and how I could fix it, please tell me.

I exctracted the maps into my content folder but they arent showing up in my asset browser. My other custom maps show up so i dont know if i extracted them in the stong spot but the maps dont show up

@d.grunert These addons are primarily for map creators to use higher quality HL2 assets in their custom maps. Some examples of maps using them include C17YSCAPE Update Parts 1 & 2 (embedded in the map) and Monomyth (requires Parts 1-3 of this collection to be downloaded and activated). As an added bonus, the team added a playable map to the 4th part, so you can see a showcase of some of the newest assets. That's not typical, and if you look at other asset packs they generally do not include a playable map within. Again, this is just for developers and has already been used in numerous places. I recommend trying to find all of the Easter eggs in the embedded Part 4 map and then maybe check out Monomyth if you haven't yet. After that you can hang on to them if you have the space or just uninstall all 4 parts and reinstall if you need them in the future.

Unfortunately, despite the download of 4 parts with 2.5 GB, I can only start the fourth part. The other parts are displayed in the addons manager, but not in the maps that are queried when you want to start a new game. only part 4 is displayed, it also loads, but without any playful content, it's just a map that is very nicely designed, but nothing happens, nothing to work on.... why, what for? Is this a mod to continue working on?
Could someone please explain to me how I can fix the loading problem? This is not the first time what I have described above has happened to me. That's a disappointment for the loading quantities, especially since I unfortunately don't have a fast internet connection.
