HL1 remastered (and then some) *sorry Bloodshot >.>

General Development Black Mesa
#1

If I’d have known someone was working on this, I’d have just contacted them and set up a merge or something :T

Ah well, this is a sound pack that replaces all the weapon fire sounds, the explosions, and some NPCs (vort, zombie, houndeye) with remastered HL1 sounds. When I say remastered, I mean either mixed with BM, heavily edited valve 98 originals, or from scratch recordings made to emulate the spirit of the 98 sounds. Some stuff is straight up redone conceptually (zombie melee)

I plan on touching up the Agrunt as well in the future. It needs some real serious touching.

Here’s a vid of the pack in action

And here’s the pack!
Just drag the BMS into source mods, and let it merge and replace anything it asks you to merge and replace.
The pack comes with the vanilla BM sounds inside each folder so uninstallation is easy. If this is an issue, someone just hit me up and I’ll take em out.

lol don’t worry about it, I just did some stuff for myself and figured I’d release what I had.

It’s funny, like literally 10 minutes ago I decided the MP5 was missing something so I took the “shell casings hitting the floor” parts of the original sound, and combined them with the BM firing sound in pretty much the same way :stuck_out_tongue:

I really loved hearing that after I stopped firing in the original so I just couldn’t leave it be.

The only thing I’d say (which is why I didn’t do this) is that the HL1 glock firing sound is probably the most unfitting of them all. For some reason it just seems like the type of sound that is easier to notice how much lower quality it is than the rest.

I loled @ the sound when you hit the zombie with the crowbar :lol:

Haha. The thing I got most out of that video (sorry! I’m not much in the way of sound or model replacements unless you plan on redoing the entire game) is the fact that you picked up the houndeye corpse. I didn’t know you could do that! :smiley:

#4

You can pick up headcrabs too!

#5

Hey Xal, you wouldn’t happen to have the UI sounds from the WON version of HL1 would you? I would get them from the game myself, but I can’t seem to find my HL CD.

#6

I do, pm me later tonight and i’ll grab them for you when i get off work. Already have them in BM on my end.

#7

Pretty good; though I have to agree the Glock sound is a bit off, everything else is great. Especially love how the Vorts sound a bit crazed again. Definitely do more.

#8

Don’t know why it sounds metalic when u use the crowbar on rocky ground

The crowbar is metal. Also, it’s a limitation in the system.

#11

So u cannot bind more sounds to it, so it sounds like hitting a wall?

#12

nope.
Even then, I’d only make a flesh variant, as the crowbar in HL1 has the same hollow metal thud no matter what you hit unless it’s made of flesh.

#13

Sounds classic

#14

While I thought most of the sound design in BM was fantastic, the nostalgia part of my brain longed for the original sounds, so thanks for putting it together, xalener.

#15

cool

#16

You try hitting a rock with a crowbar, see what kind of sound it makes.

#17

I did the same thing before that.
