Half-Life/Half-Life 2 Leftovers

Leftovers from Half-Life.

A leftover of Antlion Goop from (the yet unreleased) Half-Life 2.

sky_c17_05*.vtf contains a skybox with a purple X on each texture. Judging by its name, it may have been a leftover from the development of Half-Life 2.

cs_havana Materials Folder

To do: Find and compare with textures that are used if necessary. Also there might be more that need to be uploaded.

For whatever reason, there are a bunch of files from multiple directories including non-existant ones copied into the cs_havana folder. Most of the textures were either removed or redesigned for the final release.

Office Monitor Screen

To do: Photoshop & icon expert needed to identify all text & icons.

The files, computer2a.vtf & computer2b.vtf, contain the unedited screen captures from the monitor in cs_office. The unused screen captures can give us a look at what a developer actually had installed on their Windows XP system at the time.

Original (unused)	Edited (used)

Looking at the screen captures from computer monitors, reveals various items used on a Valve employee's system. This print screen was taken by "Todd" as seen in the command prompt window and "Todd's Hours.doc" word document. Most likely created by Todd Williams.

Recycle Bin	Steam	Shortcut to vtex_gui.exe	Shortcut to vtex.exe	The Shared Folder

Other windows show an Excel spreadsheet TPS Reports - Jan 1998.xls, and Outlook 2003 running in the background.

The second image is an edited version of the first, most likely using Paint Shop Pro that is installed and the default for JPG files as seen in the window, changes include:

1. The Microsoft Word Logo, Recycle Bin, media logo, 3DS Max 4.2 are all removed or replaced by another icon.
2. The Start button logo replaced with a yellow happy face and the word start was replaced with "fart".
3. Most of the icons in the taskbar have been replaced with a Counter-Strike: Condition Zero shortcut.
4. The Command Prompt's Windows build number and Microsoft trademark was removed.

There's an overview for a map called fy_rockworld. Likely a test map.

A graphic for the V.I.P's class selection is located in materials/vgui/gfx/vgui.

Misplaced Graphics

The file, flowerbed1.vtf, can be found in the models folder of props/de_tides. Comparing it to the used file, the "dirt" was changed to an actual dirt texture and some grass was added to the bottom of the texture.

Unused	Used

flowerbed2.vtf can also be found in the same directory as flowerbed1.vtf. The only difference is that they added pine branches in the empty space.

Unused Level Content

cs_assault

The USK 16 German version removed the blood and has you lie down when you get killed then disappear.

To enable this, enter the following commands in the in-game console (~)

violence_ablood 1
violence_hgibs 1
violence_hblood 1
