The game is completely playable and enjoyable without playing the other Half-Life games first. That said, since you have a Quest 2, you could play Half-Life 1 in VR using Lambda1VR. It's a huuuuuuge game though, and very difficult compared to today's typical games, but very cool. Alyx takes place between Half-Life 1 and 2 though has much moreHi I'm trying to see if a custom map/campaign can work with this mod. I checked the website and it says to place custom content in: /Half-Life 2 VR/hlvr/custom. I'm not sure if this is is just for custom textures or I actually but custom map data here. I downloaded Half Life Year Long Alarm and looking at the files it doesn't make sense to
Originally posted by jakershaker13: while the vr mod is fun, you wont get the full experience without playing flatscreen first. i ended up trying a bit of both, turns out you were right. the experience is noticeably better after a flatscreen playthrough first imo, though its hard to explain why. #4.
Do not MOVE the folder, you NEED to have openvr_api.dll in both the orignal VR folder AND in the main half life directory Before launching, be sure direct mode is enabled, and make the opengl.32dll, and BOTH LOCATIONS OF openvr_api.dll read only as well (apply to the 1 in VR folder and main half life folder)
The long-awaited sequel to Half-Life: 2 has finally landed. It’s gorgeous. It’s fun. And it’s a VR exclusive. While it’s not exactly Half-Life 3, the package it comes in remains the same: a Half-Life sequel. Half-Life: Alyx is a first-person shooter where you play as Alyx Vance as she fights for survival against a hostile alien empire.
