What to do?!
After my little investigation I found that new Intel iGPU (maybe AMD integrated graphics as well) has an annoying problem with incorrect recognition of hardware in Source games.

Cause of that you can't to reach to "High level of Shadows" and your game may too dark to you!
You can try to increase level of brightness but this is not a solution in this case!

So now you can choose "High level of Shadows".
But also you need to add this command too for correct displaying of the menu in DXVK mode which more stable for modern iGPU.

  • 3) Now we need to going here...
...\Steam\steamapps\common\Black Mesa\bms\cfg
...and find out this file autoexec.cfg.
Open autoexec.cfg by text editor you like and add this lines:

mat_hdr_level 2
mat_tonemapping_occlusion_use_stencil 1
Now save file and close it.
