A Simple Guide to playing Half-Life with 1998 Graphics or Filtered Textures
Turning It OFF (OR) ON
1998
To achieve the OG Textures (which are the better way to play Half-Life) simply type this into the console after enabling sv_cheats 1
gl_texturemode GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR gl_ansio “0” gl_round_down “0”
To keep it consistent, create a userconfig.cfg file with this and place it into the “valve” folder inside your Half-Life Directory. Keep a backup in case you want to remove it.
Filtered
To play the Newer Default way on Steam, put this instead
gl_texturemode GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR
