Well that's logic - the Combine did not "exist" in the original Half-Life, and it was the G-Man and his "employers" who conquered Xen by the help of Gordon. Nihilanth was the master of Xen (correct me if i am wrong) and when Gordon killed him, his slaves (the vortigaunts) were freed. The...

That bad ? :D I would be thrilled if Gordon freed himself of his true masters. Maybe that way of exposing it is "off", story wise, but still, i want Gordon to realize the truth at some point. Doesn't have to be in EP3 or HL3, but just before they cut the cord on the game series. Spoiler...

Oooh - mystery time :D All jokes aside, you are actually on to something. The placement, layout and "shaping" of the text has some significance. From the "All Knowing Vortigaunt": " That sharp spur of hope has not dulled to this day. For once the lesser master (Nihilanth) lay defeated, we knew...

Haha i was wondering when anyone would ask about that. No. I am not implying that any single character has any connection to freemasonry or secret societies - but merely the symbolism of the "pun" that is the name G. Freeman. It's meant to hint at the fact that something beyond is going on in...

Well thanks! I'm glad you like the design. But i'm still adamant about the font not being "bad" :) I agree completely though, that the font is non-readable in smaller resolutions, but as far as i'm concerned, none of the text is too small to be clearly readable. None of the text is below 20px...

I can tell :D But then again, if you see this as a "lower-standard" than i guess i should be glad to take critique from a pro :thumbs:

All the text are quotes from Nihilanth - they are meant to "set a mood" overall, not to make any particular sense by themselves. I can see what you mean, but if you don't get it, it's alright :) I just shared it here to contribute a bit and to get some input - and i am glad that you bother to...

Well, your opinion is valued, input is always nice (good or bad). But i don't agree with the "cheesy" look though - i don't see how that is. And i just recently uploaded it to deviantArt, as you can tell. The people i have showed it to have commented on the font, all in a good manner, until...

Why are you confused ? :) Sorry to hear that you guys don't like the font, that's been what people liked the most about it up til now. I personally like it because it's ancient-looking and the message i wanted to convey with the poster kinda ties in with ancient history. But it's all good -...

Thank you! :)

Thanks! Much appreciated. I thought this would be a good place to share this. Had a problem with HL2 that this community just helped me solve, so i guess this is my small contribution :)

Wanted to share this with you guys, something i made for fun. Hope you like it!

Okay i figured out how to bring up the console, and changing hl2_normspeed worked. However i am not sure if the value 190 is the default, i got it to work by setting it to 300, that seemed like how it was before i ran into this problem. Anyways, now it works (for the time being :) ) Thanks a...

I have a European keyboard that requires me to use ALT Gr to type ~, so i can't bring up the console. How do i get past that problem ?

Tried it and it told me that 3 files failed validation and was to be reacquired. I launched the game, but no change. However, i notice now, that when i hold down ALT to walk, Gordon slows down - but he still isn't up to full pace when not holding down ALT. So there is a slight difference, but it...

Yes, Gordon won't do what he normally does when no buttons are pushed - he walks no matter what. And there is a walk key, normally assigned to ALT. Like i said, i tried re-assigning and even resetting to default, but it didn't work. I did start from scratch (think i mentioned that) :) I...

Nobody has a clue what the problem might be ?

Hello! I registered here in hope of finding a solution to a problem i recently discovered. After not playing HL2 for a while i decided to go through the game once more, but i was dissapointed when i launched the game to find that Gordon wouldn't run - he walks along without being able to...
