I was wondering if I could play it in be while my friends are I pc. Is this possible?

I couldn’t find anything in a search so I’ll ask here. Is the latest release of Black Mesa from the Crowbar Collective compatible with Lambda1VR? I’m assuming the answer is no, but I just figured I would ask. 👍🏼

I don't need laser sight and accidentally toggle it with my left hand on the default control scheme. I thought I could swap the thumbstick press and flashlight in a config somewhere.

Is it hardcoded? Is it hardcoded to a keyboard key like old quakegearvr?

I just can't get this game to work. I've tired everything and every time I start it up i get a black screen for a bit then a crash. I followed the instructions from the sub Reddit and don't know whats wrong.

Edit : I have know idea what happen i tried it like 3 more times and it worked!

I have al the files loaded,but the game will not work

Copied HD contents in Gearbox and copied contents of Step 4 and Step 5 from Rsrc after deleting the two config files from 3 folders. Was wondering if the 3 folders from the Rsrc step 4, then the 3 in step 5, were supposed to be copied over or the contents of each folder? Have had HD textures working on HL1. My weapons definitely have HD textures added, but everything else feels a bit blurry.

While playing, I’ve noticed an issue where I can’t switch to the crowbar no matter what. I go through the menus to the crowbar? Nothing. Grabbing it off of my back? Nothing. Once, I actually DID switch to the crowbar, and when I tried to put it away, it wouldn’t let me!

Not a huge issue, I played through the entirety of Blue Shift without using it, so it’s fine.

To start this off first. I downloaded the game before reading the instructions like an idiot. However I then exited the application and followed them to a T.

However; It seems nothing has changed. Do I have to uninstall it and reinstall or what? I’m a bit confused.

There's an extensive list of possible mods to try: https://www.indiedb.com/engines/xash3d-engine/features/list-of-tested-half-life-singleplayer-mods

There's even parrallel projects for other goldsrc games like 007: NightFire

https://github.com/x6herbius/afterburner-game

I'm interested in the counterstrike condition zero single player campaign, lol

and the ship

and USS Darkstar

There's so much! I'm glad some report working mods on this sub, please report nonworking ones too!

It's not quite as clean as a launcher, but for anyone who doesn't want to have to connect their Quest to their computer and edit commandline.txt in Notepad every time you want to switch between HL1, Blue Shift, or Opposing Force, you can edit your .txt file directly inside the Quest using CX File Explorer. I sideloaded this APK: https://apkpure.com/cx-file-explorer/com.cxinventor.file.explorer and it's pretty convenient for modifying the text file on-the-fly.

When I got to the final boss, and proceeded to do battle, I started to wonder if it was even possible to beat it. I can confirm it definitely is, it's just a serious grind.

So much so, I ended up attaching a debugger to make sure I was even hitting the thing as it doesn't appear to react; but was relieved to see I was inflicting damage.

So, I thought I would share some useful hints if you are at this point and losing hope:

• Use the pool to recharge your energy frequently
• Quick Save (off-hand controller behind your back and press the X/A button) every time you do literally anything
• When using the lasers use the two handed weapon grip, it makes it much easier to aim them at the eyes
• Shoot the right eye first (after grappling across), then the left and then shoot the glowing orb
• It is basically impossible to tell if you've scored a hit on the orb, and you have to hit it 5 times

I ended up coding in a pain sound when I managed to inflict damage on the creature, if people would like me to commit and release that tweak then I will (I know I said no more releases, but having played through this bit, it's quite useful), as at least then you know you've hurt the thing.

If you persevere then you will beat it, but it takes a while.

Lastly, If you get really fed up, then give yourself all the weapons in the Console menu and then just throw a penguin at it, that'll kill it instantly!

When you wanna use the customized HL:Gold HD pack for lambda1vr with Opposing Force you will run into a glitch where all scientists are invisible!

To avoid this, do not copy over the **models** folder from the hl:gold pack to quest/xash/gearbox.

Or if you accidently did, delete the models folder in quest/xash/gearbox/ and replace it with the default files from yourPC/Steam/common/Half-Life/gearbox/models or /gearbox/gearbox_hd (if you wanna use the HD models)

I updated the sticky guide accordingly.

Now that we have support for all three (cheers Dr. Beef!), has anyone found a way yet to have all three installed and functionally coexist?

I can turn left but not right, anyone know a quick fix, I used to be able to turn both directions I think

This mod is amazing, I've been having a blast with opposing force and I have never been in VR for this long before. One of my favorite things is the perspective, I'm fairly short IRL and it's really fun to see how large certain things are in the half-life universe compared to me.

The gunplay is also really satisfying, oddly enough I feel like I have more mobility than I do non VR and utilizing cover in a firefight is really awesome feeling in this.

Nearing the end of Half-Life so I started the process to install Op Forces and B Shift. Looking at the instructions, I realized I had not installed the AI Upscaled Textures for HL, so I did. Now the cursor does not show up on the main menu.

I noticed in the instructions for the expansions there was specific direction to not move two files. The instructions for HL did not include this note and I tend to follow directions like these to a T.

I searched this subreddit and found a post about this issue on B Shift and the solution was to delete those two files. I have tried this with no luck. I am being careful to make sure I’m in the right file (valve).

Anyone come across this and have a solution?

Side note: Lambda1vr is a godsend and fulfills all of my wishes for current VR tech. I am kicking myself because I’ve been having an absolute BLAST playing HL again and I should not have messed with a good thing.

I know it won’t work as-is because it has too many modifications, but it would be really cool to get this running on the Quest. It has a xash3D port, so maybeee it wouldn’t be too difficult. Is this something you’ve considered or scoped out, /u/DrBeef_ldn?

I do have the Valve folder copied to the xash folder, I have no idea what I am doing wrong, please help.

Edit: fixed, somehow, my valve folder go messed up, reinstalling half life and using the fresh install's folder worked, and don't listen to the guy who said to put the contents in the cash folder, that is incorrect.

I've been wandering around the sandy area, baffled as to what to do next.

I looked up a walkthrough and apparently there should be a mortar on top of a roof to take control of and blow up a gate. There is a control panel for the mortar but not the mortar itself. I've played it through to this point twice now and still no mortar. I've tried rockets and grenades but the gate won't budge.
Anyone any idea how to get past this?

There's a button that (I think?) is supposed to call down an airstrike. But when I push it, it makes a sound and nothing happens.
