High definition pack

[Asknoone]

So I've got HL Source, Opposing force, original half-life and Blue shift now on Steam. I'm wondering - how do you apply the high def pack that comes with Blue shift? I can't quite find it and last I heard Valve had been working on it...

I've got it on retail. But these are my newly downloaded Half-life collection games. So yeah. High def please. Please.

did they ever release the hidef pack? - I can't remember
i had blue shift anyway from the hl1 anthology
Either way a quick search reveals a handy sidestep of steam
1. Download and install PakScape

2. Open the HDP (C:\Sierra\Half-Life\valve\pak1.pak) and extract it all to C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\[email protected]\Half-Life\valve
3. Open and enjoy

edit
even better assuming it still works
while steam is running click steam://installaddon/halflifehd

Actually, you're supposed to do it like this:

Unless that's changed, it should work fine.
