Half-Life

Ripped: Nothing.
Downsampled: According to MUDS readme, audio was downsampled. I can't be sure what was done though.
Source: MUDS release (oRARs).
This is the leaked unreleased Half-Life for Dreamcast, as most of you know. A very annoying thing
on this game is the loading times, that appears all the time. I made my best to make them faster.
For that, I added a nice dummy file (around 210mb) and optimized file order the best I could. Of
course I can't make miracles, like making it load as fast as in the PC version, but loading times
got much better and the game is now more enjoyable. I doubt there is anything else to do about
this version.
Just a note, if you want to play only Blue Shift, Mr. Override has released a version only with
its files, so loadings are probably slighty faster than this one. I can't be sure though, I haven't
tested his release, but I'm just commenting in case you want to try it.
The game has the original Half-Life game and the expansion Blue Shift. Saving is fully working,
but files have variable size and are big, so I recommend you using a dedicated VMU. There are
some slowdowns around the game, but in general, it's a good port that deserves a try.
Features of my release:
- Includes all the content, it's not a ripped release.
- Saving fully working. You're encouraged to use a dedicated VMU.
- Dummied for 700mb CDs. It means faster loading times.
- Used custom file order, it means faster loadings and less Dreamcast reader noise.
- Selfboot.
About the game:
- It has VGA Box support.
Other comments:
- "Extras" folder in the pack contains some useless stuff.
- Pack comes with a custom cover set that I found on Internet.
