Enhanced Half-Life 2 Materials (Beta)

Edits to base Half-Life 2 materials to be more physically accurate and look prettier.


Phong and rimlight has been added to some materials. A few materials using cubemap reflections also got an upgrade, now making use of phong and fresnel for the best possible reflections. Some world textures also now make use of the new phong support. Additionally, some materials can now be seen from both sides, instead of becoming invisible when viewing from the other side. This can make or break the appearance of some props. It fixes the appearance of some props, such as the trainstation trash can or transparent objects, but props with missing sides will now appear as if they were hollow.

It should be compatible with many simple reskins, as long as they don't replace the VMTs.

Keep in mind that materials now make heavier use of shaders, so this can decrease graphics performance, especially on weaker hardware.

The map in some screenshots is gm_genesis.

• Phong and rimlight added to materials that previously didn't have it where possible, including world textures.
  
• Materials using cubemap reflections now have phong to make reflections a little more dynamic where possible.
  
• Rimlight on all materials using phong for fake diffuse reflections.
  
• Fresnel added to some materials using cubemaps (reflection appears stronger with viewing angle).
  
• Removed saturation and contrast modifiers from cubemap reflections, as it's not physically accurate.
  
• Many materials no longer have culling. You will notice that a lot of the HL2 models will have their faces able to be seen from both sides now.
  
• Workaround for some materials with severe aliasing issues, especially world textures. This requires MSAA set to at least 2x in-game and antialiasing transparency set to supersampling in your graphics control panel. It may cause significantly increased GPU utilization.
  
• Displacements can be seen from both sides now for visibility purposes.

When using this addon, the following addons aren't needed and will conflict, as this addon applies the same changes:

• Garbage Can Texture Cull Fix

• Materials using $envmapmask don't have phong (won't fix).
  
• Will conflict with other addons replacing VMTs that this addon replaces. To make this addon take priority, unsubscribe from the conflicting addon and resubscribe to it.
  
• Some textures are black for some people for an unknown reason.
  
• Materials using $alphatest are invisible when using mat_fullbright 2.

• Use a more accurate fake PBR method.
  
• Enhance more materials.
