Half-Life VOX

This addon brings back original Annoucement System from Half-Life to Black Mesa. Every VOX annoucement is replaced with Half-Life VOX including the voice lines exclusive to Black Mesa (whose were created using 15.ai). VOX is scripted the same way as it is in the original Half-Life and closed captions are also supported.

Manual intervention is required for this addon to work properly. Check the instructions in the Installation section.
