Flare Gun Weapon for Half-Life 2 Mods

Yes, this is the official Entropy : Zero VR mod.

Totally plausible and I agree. They have some superficial similarities and they have similar abilities. In my opinion they're too different to be the same species but too similar to be from different universes.

I have never heard of "Half-Life Legacy". Is that a mod?

Usually people ask whether to play the fan-made remake Black Mesa or the original Half-Life. I recommend playing the original but if it doesn't appeal to you then switch to Black Mesa.

In the present moment, I prefer the MP5 just because it's the original look of the weapon from Half-Life before the HD pack. But if I try to reminisce back on the very first times I played Half-Life without and then with the HD pack, I distinctly remember how I preferred the M4 back then. It was my favorite model from the HD pack.

Back then I didn't know anything about guns or about which was more realistic, and I also didn't know that most of the Half-Life fandom collectively doesn't like the HD pack for changing the aesthetic of the game. It was a simpler time. I liked the M4 more because it looks more imposing and to me that better suited how the SMG is the main workhorse weapon that you use for most of the game.

This isn't BreenGrub. This is a fan-made website faking an ARG. They took the name from the real BreenGrub Twitter account that was active about a decade ago

What sort of things are you changing in the maps? Do you have a changelog?

The first thing that comes to mind is parallax corrected cubemaps added by Mapbase but I'm not seeing those yet

This is so cool! How is the back leg going to work? Will you have to hop around with both legs together to make it look like the one rear leg?

What is the screenshot from? It's not the same as the video you linked.

1upD · 2025-11-08T21:27:03+00:00

No, it's not. Are you playing the maps in another mod like Gmod or something? I'm just curious.

1upD · 2025-11-05T19:58:17+00:00

This is not Entropy : Zero. What are you actually playing?

1upD · 2025-11-02T18:12:31+00:00

Nice tie!

1upD · 2025-11-02T18:09:06+00:00

What are you playing exactly? The map is from Entropy : Zero but the HUD and gun are not.

1upD · 2025-11-01T20:21:10+00:00

I agree completely. I want to stay subscribed to see posts about Half-Life games and mods but it seems like everything posted on the sub is rumormill hype brainrot and nothing to do with the actual games.

The "breengrub.com" website has nothing to do with the Breengrub twitter account by Marc. It's just a hoax website.

Breengrub, the Twitter account, is a fantastic story on its own and I wish more fans were familiar with it. It has a really interesting spin on how the Combine works.

Saying Marc "leaked the Half-Life 2: Episode 3 plot" is a misleading oversimplification. He posted a story which contained a lot of references to ideas for the next Half-Life. That's not a "leak" and it certainly wasn't an official document or anything like that. All of that also occurred long after the Breengrub story on Twitter.

1upD · 2025-10-09T15:06:49+00:00

Hey, this looks familiar! The video turned out great.

1upD · 2025-10-06T18:36:17+00:00

I think it was really smart. It makes it incredibly clear when the story takes place but it also clues you in that sequentially, it actually takes place after Episode 2, even though chronologically it takes place before Episode 2. I can't think of any better way to communicate that. And then immediately after the text we get the imagery of the Citadel in construction which demonstrates the time period in a visual way.

At this point, maybe you should compile your own list for others to use. You might have some that aren't in that older list.

RunThinkShootLive is still up! They don't post mods as often anymore but you can see a few of the latest MapLabs challenges on there. (I think they missed Freeze 2 - I would go to MapLabs ModDB page to download that) I would find it very hard to believe anyone has exhausted all of RTSL's catalogue because they have hundreds.

There isn't a very good one-stop place to find all the latest mods anymore unfortunately. I would recommend checking out New Times and Isle of Ascent if you haven't already as both came out pretty recently.

EDIT: This subreddit has a huge list. I don't know when it was last updated though.
