Xash3D
Requirements
- Half-Life 1 files (from the latest Half-Life WON version (1.1.1.0) or from Steam)
Important info about Steam files
MAKE SURE it uses the files from the steam_legacy branch as HL25's files are incompatible!
Installation
- Download the latest release of Xash3D-fwgs and extract it in a folder.
- Place the
valvefolder within your Xash3D's root directory. - Start the game
Enabling the console
Go to "Multiplayer -> Customize -> Adv. Options" and tick Enable Developer Console.
Please note that you will have to redo this step after each start of Xash3D.
Alternatively you can create a batch file within your Xash3D folder with the following content:
start xash3d.exe -console
You should be able to bring up the console.
Joining a NoSTEAM server
Please note the server must have Reunion or DProto in order to join the server!
The BaseQ Gameservers currently have full support for Xash3D clients.
connect ip:port gs
Troubleshooting
I see a black background rather than the one from Steam!!
Place the files from the steam_legacy branch rather than the Half-Life 25's files.
Why is there "[Xash3D]" next to my name when joining a NoSteam server?
It is a value that is hardcoded, in order to differenciate Xash3D players from NoSteam players. If you want to disable it, you will have to recompile Xash3D yourself, and delete that part of the code that includes that change.
When I play online, why can't I move or shoot?
You have used the files from Half-Life's 25th anniversary!
You have to use the files from the steam_legacy branch in order to fix it!
