Half-Life
Custom Sprites

A selection of custom Sprites for Half-Life Deathmatch. Since the latest Half-Life update, you can now put these into a directory called valve_addon, which means you will not overwrite your original files. To install any of these sprites, simply extract the contents of the folder into the valve_addon folder. If it does not exist, simply create one yourself. Once you have the game loaded, ensure that you have ticked "Allow custom addon content" within the Content section of the game’s Options menu.

Installation Tip: Since the latest Half-Life update, place these files into a valve_addon directory. This way, your original files are not overwritten. Once in-game, enable “Allow custom addon content” in the Options → Content menu.

Hotglow.spr


Smoke.spr


Laserdot.spr


Crosshairs.spr

Note: With the Half-Life 25th Anniversary update, crosshairs are no longer tied to your screen resolution. Crosshair packs include three files:
  • crosshairs.spr – standard resolutions
  • 1280crosshairs.spr – 1280×720 to 1920×1080
  • 2560crosshairs.spr – 2560×1440 and above
If unsure, copy all three into valve_addon/sprites and the game will select the right one.
