What is the best Half Life or Half Life: Source mod available? I am about to replay Half Life for the umpteenth time and looking for a way to make it look as realistic as possible with out changing any game play. I don’t care about opinions about how those kind of mods ruin the game I’m just looking for the the best looking mod available. Any suggestions?

That one seems good.

Link for download. It’s a skin pack, apparently. It’s a re-upload, with some edits, like the ENBSeries shaders, I guess.
There’s always this if you want an actual mod.

EDIT: Actually, I just remembered something about Redux. The tram always seem to not move after a point, leaving you stuck. You can always skip it through console.

Also, that one seems to look better to me. But it has some less extra features, such as real-time shadows from your flashlight.
Thanks a lot!
You welcome! Out of curiosity, which one did you go for?
I’m about to install the first one. I was actually looking for that one, I installed it a while ago, but for the life of me I couldn’t remember what it was called. I was going to just look for a new one but since you suggested the one I was looking for in the first place I am just going to re-install that. Once again THANKS A LOT!
You welcome! I actually found it through the comments on the second one on ModDB. Someone said that one was better, and gave it a quick look, then forgot about it. I saw this thread, and decided my best to look for it. Eventually, after many tries, I just typed something that sounded about right, and I was!
I tried about 10 Google searches before I made this thread but for some reason I had convinced myself that the mod was named ultra something or other. I tried about 4 “ultra” mods before giving up and making this thread.
I recommend Ultimate Definition over Enhanced. So many times have I attempted to use the Paranoia mp5 in that mod only to have missing hgrunt textures no matter what I tried.
