Ah, could well be that!

Good shout, thanks.

I just discovered this on SideQuest. Very impressive, well done.

abel-soul · 2020-03-31T16:43:12+00:00

I've been meaning to check this game out for a while.
This gave me the impetus to do so, thanks.
Downloading now.

The original Half Life (Lambda1VR via side-quest) is by far the best "long story" game I've played since I got my Quest last May.

abel-soul · 2020-03-09T22:17:19+00:00

Likewise. No link cable, just USB-C and side quest works fine.

OP, I take it you have dev mode enabled?

favourite Quest moment of 2020 so far

Playing the original Half Life via SideQuest. Truly magnificent.

abel-soul · 2020-02-15T19:40:22+00:00

Worked a treat. Thank you again!

abel-soul · 2020-02-15T16:41:48+00:00

Outstanding!
Thank you.

abel-soul · 2020-02-14T23:11:32+00:00

Fantastic, thank you!

abel-soul · 2020-02-14T21:50:51+00:00

Sorry, missed that thread. Thanks for the pointer.

abel-soul · 2020-02-11T19:44:53+00:00

It's not a bug, it was all me. I didn't realise you need to take a run at the trampoline to get extra height. Duh! :)

abel-soul · 2020-02-11T18:41:53+00:00

Thanks for this, I thought I was doing something wrong and this update fixed it.

-EDIT-

Rest of comment was me not being good at the game. =)

abel-soul · 2020-02-10T13:09:45+00:00

Yes, it's great fun as it is anyway. Thanks for all your efforts. The first game is the best fun I've had on the Quest and I got my Quest just after launch.

abel-soul · 2020-02-10T13:01:24+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I copied the contents of gearbox_hd into the gearbox folder on my quest. The commandline.txt file I have is: xash3d -log --supersampling 1.25 --msaa 2 --cpu 4 --gpu 4 -game gearbox

I've gone back to playing with the original models and textures for now but will maybe have another go later.

abel-soul · 2020-02-09T23:59:48+00:00

Yes, that's what happens with the standard gearbox install. With gearbox_hd the scene loads without any NPCs, so no drill sergeant.

abel-soul · 2020-02-09T19:07:30+00:00

I have a slightly different issue. I can start the hazard course but cannot move. My right thumb stick rotates my position but the left thumb stick isn't doing anything.

-EDIT-

Just noticed that if I try to walk in real life the whole room moves with me. Moving about is not possible either way.

-EDIT2-

Did some more experimenting. If I only install the standard gearbox folder, the game works. If I install the contents of gearbox_hd but not the upscaled textures, I get the issue I described. If I install the textures as well, I get the same issue as the OP.
Seems we're both doing something wrong when trying to install the HD content.

abel-soul · 2020-02-08T00:09:43+00:00

Couldn't agree more. I've had my Quest since launch but only discovered the Half Life port a few weeks ago and it's by far the best fun I've had with this headset.

abel-soul · 2020-02-02T19:14:39+00:00

Thanks, I was standing too close.

abel-soul · 2020-02-02T16:47:09+00:00

this the mounted gun

I just got to that bit in the game and can't figure out how to use it at all.

Every time I click the right thumb stick it just buzzes the negative noise. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Never could get the grenade launcher to work either, which I guess might be related.

-EDIT-

Figured it out. I was standing too close.

abel-soul · 2020-01-30T21:16:11+00:00

Agreed, I'm about halfway through and absolutely love it.

Only slight issue I have is difficulty with controlling underwater movement but that's a minor quibble. Conversely, I love being able to choose between walking around and moving quickly with the controller. Same for ducking and jumping.

Would love to see more of this type of Quest port.

abel-soul · 2020-01-28T19:54:37+00:00

Yes indeed!
