Make .pak files for Half-Life 1 for use with Lambda1VR!
- Install HL (+ Blueshift and Opposing Force if desired) via steam or CD (haven't tested, but if you install to the default directory it should work).
- If using the AI upscale packs, extract the STEP 4 and STEP 5 folders into the base Half-Life directory (it should be at the same level as the
valve/folder). If you use these, you don't have to install the base HL/Opfor/BShift, as the AI upscale presets will do it for you. - Open sidequest and allow your headset to connect to your computer
- Run the wizard .exe, basically you click the buttons in order from top to bottom. IMPORTANT: WAIT for the popup telling you each step is complete before going on to the next one! It may not seem like it's doing anything but it probably is.
- Reboot your headset! Sometimes it gets a little funky for some reason but a reboot seems to work.
- Run the different games with the Cactus' launcher.
- FOR EVERY DIFFERENT GAME, make sure to enable materials in the configuration -> video menu on each game. There have been some crashes without doing that for some reason.
- Have fun!
