How to return to the Old Models (2013 update HD models enforced)

The Guide

As you may know… Valve with this last update has enforced the HD Models pack that gearbox made as the Default game models… i don’t like them and i guess that MOST people don’t

Here with this guide with the help of the person who found out the original solution (R4to0.exe) I will tell you how to fix it in this tutorial… this tutorial is intended to help to return to the original Models , I don’t own any of this content , the one who told me about this solution was R4to0.exe via this original thread : [link]

What you are going to do for enable the Old Models is simple:

Step 1. Narrated by R4to0.exe “Just change to new beta (steam library, right click in half-life, proprierties, beta tab and choose steampipe). Valve added a option to disable HD pack.”

Summary : Go to your library , right click on Half-Life, Click on properties , go to the beta tab and change from none to Steampipe

Step 2. IN CASE the previous step has failed , you will do this: Right Click on Half-life ( in your library) -> Go to properties -> Local -> Verify integrity of Game Cache.

I’ve tested it out with 5 people I know and it worked.

This solution may become outdated when Valve releases a fix to change to the Old Models easily.

Thanks for your attention , please leave up a comment if you have any question.
