Half-Life — November 19, 2023 Update

• Steam Networking and Server Browser improvements.

• The HUD will no longer scale to 2x size at 1024x768 and 1280x720 resolution.

• Fixes for GL Overbright shaders.

• Fixes for text alignment in custom in-game menus at various resolutions.

• Fixed 357 zoomed crosshair appearing as the wrong texture at the largest screen resolutions.

• Fixed some server events that cause crashes with high player counts.

• Fixed crash if the user set their Field of View to 0 and then zoomed in with the crossbow.

• Fixed window icons drawing inverted for mods.

• Fixed the inability to launch Half-Life: Blue Shift and Day of Defeat, as well as many other mods.

NOTE: Many GoldSrc mods, Counter-Strike included, may still have compatibility issues with the updated version of the Half-Life engine. While we work on improving mod support it is advisable to install the beta "steam_legacy" build of Half-Life (which can be selected in the game's properties page) when playing mods.
