I thought Black Mesa was a mod for half life 1

There are two versions:

  1. The mod for Half-Life 2 (not Half-Life 1) which was released in the latter part of 2012 and is free, but does not and will not include the Xen chapters and will remain how it was released.
  2. The standalone game which is in early access right now and retails at US$19.99 on Steam, and will include the Xen chapters when they’re done and updates including bugfixes.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say probably not, at least very well. I’m amazed you play PC games and have what would have been considered mid-end performance 13 years ago . Might be time to look into upgrades, kiddo.

Low/medium settings should run alright, ye.

Is there some option he could disable in the command window that would make it run better?
