HL Custom Sprites

A curated selection of custom weapon models for Half-Life Deathmatch, collected over many years from the community.
These models have been preserved here for historical purposes, celebrating the creativity and contributions of Half-Life enthusiasts.

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.

Note: With the Half-Life 25th Anniversary update, crosshairs and HUD sprites are no longer tied to your screen resolution. Crosshair and HUD packs include three files like this:
  • 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.
