[Half-Life machinima] Half-Peace Episode 1

[@oxcjae]

That was fun to watch, and the extra effort put into customizing the map and voices is a nice touch. Using GoldSrc instead of Source/SFM for animation and cinematography gives the video a much more authentic, old-school style that's very rare with Half-Life machinimas these days. This series definitely has potential to be great. Looking forward to the next part!

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Thank you! And yes, I tried to stay as close to the vanilla HL as possible and didn't use any mods like Spirit or something else. BTW about the rare machinimas: will we ever see the next part of HALF-LIEF? There are really no one is making HL machinima anymore. Except my own videos there are only you and that guy who used to made "someone's mind" in Residual LIfe (but I think he's quitted) and that's it.

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

@@oxcjae Ok, I'm looking forward to it.

[@lizardizzle]

Kleiner and Barney's HL2 lines sounded just like they would through the Goldsrc audio engine. It was seamless. Great work.

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

[@thegoosejelly]

Subscribed. This was really, really good. I have never seen in-engine Half-Life machinima before and am very impressed.

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Thank you! Well, nowadays people prefer to use SFM or GMod to make machinimas, but I still try to stay as vanilla as possible in terms of the game engine.

Black Mesa actually doing science?! I was expecting something like that for years!

We need more of this please! 🙏

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

There will be moar, don't worry.

[@DrOktobermensch]

This is looking great, especialyl with how much effort you put into bending the old GoldSrc to do this. Keep it up, I look forward to seeing more!

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Thank you! And yes, it is really hard to work with the original, not tweaked entities.

what a funny video.

[@a1batross_]

Черт побери, твои видосы офигенны. Как я раньше не нашёл твой канал? :)

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Спасибо! Вообще тут как и со всеми мелкими каналами: алгоритмы ютуба их не продвигают.

[@samyosefinia1682]

Very nice animations 😁😊

[@youreviltwinLP]

Absolutely fantastic! Great job with all the new lab equipment in that office. That's the sort of thing we should have seen in the original game. (Labs and devices where they did 'normal' analysis on samples, before using the giant anti-mass spectrometer.) I guess you based Gina's outfit on the cut 'female scientist' model... of course in HL2 the photo of the Anomalous Materials team shows that the female scientists wore trousers just like the men (and that's how the Black Mesa remake decided to do it too). But you did have Barney comment on "That's a flattering... erm, thing, you've got on there..." so that suggests that's today she's not wearing the standard female scientist uniform, that she would normally be wearing! Was there a particular member of the science team she was hoping to impress? ;)

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Yes, HL really misses all these small details on the maps (as well as doors to some areas, and common sense sometimes) and it still remains half-abstract here and there. GearBox tried to fix it in the addons by adding more models and scientific stuff. The Gina's model is a modificated female model from NOLF converted by someone into GoldSrc format (for using as a hostage model for CS I think). And the Barney's "flattering thing" remark was actually about the crystal. He just wanted to pretend he knew something about science to impress Gina.

[@pseudogiant6504]

Very cool, subbed.

[@VitorHunter12]

Love this!

[@Martin0]

This is fascinating man, how did you film this?

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Thank you! The machinima is nothing special: it's just a couple of modified vanilla maps with scripted sequences and custom models with some new animations.

[@Dubatis]

Очень крутые видео)))

[@coalcont6536]

Ну посмотрим что получится в итоге.

[@SiisKolkytEuroo]

What did you do to hl2 voicelines to make their quality sound like hl1?

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Just converted them into wav's with 11025 Hz and 88kbps.

[@wwrite7370]

По-васянски мило :)

[@hl2_dmreuploads476]

Hey, how did you created this?

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Basically I modified the original map in JACK, added a couple of new animations for the models, placed a banch of scripts and then recorded all this.

[@fistfighterpro1318]

Make episode 2 pls

why

[@КонстантинИванов-д1д]

I know this was supposed to be funny but it was just cringe.

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Well, I'd say Barney's attempts to hit on Gina actually supposed to be cringe-inducing.

@@GoldSrcFreeman ay man this shit is so impressive, good stuff

[@toiletmangaminghd5714]

Are These scripted sequence and camera all Made in hammer Editor and Then Played in half Life? By the way this was Very impressive

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Thank you! And yes, all the sequences were made using Hammer (J.A.C.K. fork to be precise) and captured in the Steam version of HL. The final "camera" movement was imitated by reducing the player's speed because of the real trigger_camera jerky movement.
