Old Engine Water Particles Recreation
Pre-Orange Box engine update, Half-Life 2 featured toxic water particles that were a lot different. They used a particle system, very different than the .pcf one present in the modern versions of the source engine. The normal water particles, however, still use the old particle system, and I have no idea why they only changed the slime water particles! This mod changes that and in my opinion, the 2004 slime particles fit the game more as they are basically the normal water particles but recolored yellow.
However, since they were hardcoded, I couldn’t directly rip them from the old builds of the game.
I had to recreate them from scratch, by eye. That means they aren’t exactly 100% accurate, but I still think it’s a very good attempt. I even used the same texture files, yes, they are still in the game!
Gmod 10 and earlier actually used the old branch of the source engine, so they also had these water particles. If you maybe want a more "immersive" experience, use this mod!
And I know, the third screenshot in the showcase looks very washed out and the colors are different from my recreation. I’m sorry about that but old half-life 2 is weird. Or my copy of it is just cursed, I dunno.
Should be compatible with my blood particles mod! If one particle mod works and the other one doesn’t, try restarting your game. If that doesn’t work, please tell me!
