Cleaned-Up Lowres Concrete Texture

Description
One texture that shows up repeatedly throughout the game is an old relic from Half-Life 2.
This mod replaces that old concrete texture with a new, faithfully recreated version.

The original texture from Half-Life 2 is 512x. The one in Black Mesa is 1024x. The original texture was scaled up to 1024x, and noise was applied to the image to give it a rougher look. The same applies to the original normal map, which had no correlation to the original diffuse texture.

This texture is the full 1024x resolution, downscaled from a 4k texture. It even has a proper normal map that more closely resembles the detail seen in the diffuse texture.

pretty sure you only subscribe to it due to it only changing the texture

Thanks a lot, the old concrete textures were arguably the worst looking textures in the entire game

petty but not pointless, ugly textures be gone
