Half-Life, Blue Shift, & Opposing Force Menu Text Corrections (Half-Life 25th Anniversary Update) - English


6 Screenshots

About This File

This fixes some inconsistencies across the three official Half-Life games to make the menus fit with the game more and bring back the WON styled text as close as possible with the Steam Version.

This does not add the missing animated logos, fix menu background scaling issues, or add/modify menu functions. This is simply text correction for the menus.

Color scheme for Blue Shift is not included in this download but can be downloaded from here instead.

 

Installation:

Note: The way this is installed ensures no updates or game file verification will delete/overwrite the custom files.

1. Download the file.

2. Extract the zip file to the main installation directory (where hl.exe is located).

3. In every game, go to the in-game options menu and under the "Content" tab, make sure "allow custom addon content" is checked. Click apply and the game will restart with the new text.

 

Changes for all 3 games:

Made main and pause menu text all capital, this is how it was in the WON versions.

Changed "Options" text to "Configuration" like the WON version.

 

Changes for Half-Life:

Replaced "Training Room" text in New Game menu with "Hazard Course"

 

Changes for Blue Shift:

Replaced "Training Room" text in New Game menu with "Hazard Course"

Replaced "Play Half-Life" button text in New Game menu with "Play Blue Shift", since that is the name of the game anyway.

 

Changes for Opposing Force:

Grey text on the side of the main menu options have been changed to their equivalent text from the WON version of the game, soldier!

Replaced "Training Room" text in New Game menu with "Boot Camp" Like the WON version.

Replaced "Play Half-Life" button text in New Game menu with "Play Opposing Force", since that is the name of the game anyway.

Changed "Are you sure you want to quit?" text to "You going AWOL on me, son?" From the WON version.

 

Please let me know of any typos I missed.
