Notes
Beta. Brings the VR code of Max Makes Mods' Half-Life: VR Mod (reused with permission) to Blue Shift on the Blue Shift Updated community SDK and the Half-Life 25th Anniversary engine, with replaced hand models. Movement follows the headset by default; immersive ladders and autocrouch are off by default. Not carried over: FMOD sound, speech recognition, Steam achievements, the VR configuration tool and upscaled textures. Known issues: teleporting in some Xen areas kills you, weapon hand models are rough, crashes or save corruption can happen, and there is no manual reload or two-handed holding. Windows only. No game files included.
