Half-Life 2 Immersion Mod tries to recreate an atmosphere of playing Half-Life 2 on Serious Engine with ported weapons, enemies, effects and a bunch of other features that mimic Half-Life 2 as closely as possible!

Note

This is the first version of Half-Life 2 Immersion Mod to be released. The reason why it's version "0.7" is because, at the time, I thought of the mod as being roughly 70% completed, which ended up being wrong further down the line as more ideas came up.

Mod features

  • All main weapons from Half-Life 2 were ported as closely as possible. These include:
    Crowbar, Gravity Gun, USP, .357 Magnum, MP7, Pulse Rifle, SPAS-12, Crossbow, Grenade, RPG.
    Also an extra temporary weapon from Counter-Strike: Source - G3SG1 auto-sniper.
  • Completely new HUD, remade from scratch to look as similar to Half-Life 2 as possible [unfinished].
  • 8 ported enemies from Half-Life 2 + 1 bonus enemy from Team Fortress 2 (reskins). These include:
    Civil Protection, Manhack, Overwatch Soldier, Overwatch Elite, Standard Headcrab, Fast Zombie, Antlion Soldier, Antlion Guard.
    A bonus boss from Team Fortress 2 - the one and only Merasmus!
  • Surface configs that automatically assign materials to textures on levels (making use of new materials such as Metal and Glass) for better immersion (experimental feature).
  • Various effects from Half-Life 2 such as bullet holes and stepping sounds [unfinished].
  • Flashlight and suit zoom similar to Half-Life 2 [unfinished].
  • Captions similar to Half-Life 2 that also display picked items (temporary).
  • Several fun features:
    1. Bunnyhopping immitation (continuous hopping with horizontal acceleration).
    2. Speed & jump multipliers.
    3. Improved enemies to be more like in Half-Life 2 with enemy drops.
    4. A few experimental gamemodes:
      Arms Race: The primary weapon cycles between 7 different weapons every 3 kills.
      Dissolvent: The only available weapon is the Pulse Rifle with unlimited energy balls.
      Bunny Hunt: Increased movement speed with auto bunnyhopping; the only weapon is G3SG1.
