you can just copy the ICD .dll into the game folder and hexedit out all the multitexturing extensions.

Half Life runs well on my K6-2+ With rage 128, a P3 should run it fine even in Software Mode..

Hi Guys,

I am trying to do some HL1 benchmarks without luck. Even if I record my own it just doesn't play afterwards.

I have 1.0.0.9 GOTY currently but hoping I can try the benchmark from BeginnerGuy but cannot find HL1108.exe. Does anyone have a link?

Super old thread but I used to play Half Life at lan parties ( A lot) at the end of the 90s and everything about this machine should make it run 60fps except for the TNT2 M64, which was never a good card. A overclocked Voodoo will get you there though.

did somebody compare radeon vs geforce opengl performance in goldsrc games? in 2021 I still experience radeon cards having bad performance

5800X + 6800XT in sven coop fps drops to 20fps x)
i did not have something like this with a geforce..

The stand-alone Sven Coop that's on steam has some major renderer cruft changes, I wouldn't see that as a good yardstick to compare two vendors on with regards to Half-Life.

Didn't they remove OpenGL from the original HL/goldsource engine in favor of Directx?

afaik OGL is there and the default option on steam.
