Hi, can we collect better textures or hires textures as upgrade for the original game-engine, so it could be played on the same machine as it came out.

The only fitting example (hi-res + original engine + old machine) I can think of are S3TC texture packs for UnrealEngine1 games for MetalDrv and donhal's D3D/GL renderers. Anything else gets into modern source ports / modern API wrapper hijack territory.
"Better" is also quite subjective too...
Gunman Chronicle HD Pack.
This is it, I use some from existing pack of other authors and carefully add them, you don't need Xash3d to play.
Enable "r_detailtextures 1" in console. All missions in-game and default multiplayer maps are included.
Also, I recommend using Half Life HD pack to cover some missing HD textures.

Original still looks best to me.
Gunman Chronicles was great I liked this game.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha !!!!
Wow that pic made me rly lough hard!
Thanks for it.
Resident Evil 4 retexture project is one of the most famous.
I must be some kind of standard: the anonymous gangbanger of the 21st century.
RE4 is DX9 P4 WIN2K, I should have been more spefic to win9x games from around 1998-2003 that will run on a P3-Tualatin. (I am checking different PCI gfx-cards on this).

UNREAL1 with S3TC Textures on the second UT99 cd work with the correct e.g. upgraded OGL Driver and a S3TC capable card (like GF MX4000 PCI/64MB)

Now I am checking for "Blood2", "Severance", "Quake1+2" , for Q3 I only use "Kai's texturefix" in my opinion very good and with 96MB very light.

Halflife1 can be updated with blue-shift, I have to check that. I did not get gunman HD-Textures to work...I think placing that line in config.cfg is the wrong way.

what is the best texture pack for the original halflife1 (no steam, no Xash3d) , I already installed HL1 updated to 1110 and installed opposing force and blueshift with high definition pack. I only need some better textures. thx!

There is no support for external texture replacements.
