Almost 25 years after its original release, a new mod for Half-Life has arrived: a fully ray-traced version of the game, courtesy of modder Sultim Tsyrendashiev - who previously produced ray-traced versions of Serious Sam, Doom and Quake. Long after most people had played through Half-Life's campaign, games and mods powered by the GoldSrc engine continued to entertain and amaze.

Don’t expect Half-Life to suddenly look better than its modern rake Black Mesa, but expect the games lighting and shadows to look a lot better than before. Half-Life: RAY TRACED features the same assets and textures as the game’s original 1998 version, which means that while the game will feature ray traced lighting and other new graphical features, the game will still maintain much of its original appearance. Let’s hope that FSR 2 support is planned for users of Non-RTX GPUs. Gamers can also add Nvidia’s DLSS technology to Half-Life Ray Traced as an optional add-on, which is something that we would recommend if you own an Nvidia RTX graphics card.

This mod follows on from the success of the developer’s path tracing mods for DOOM, Serious Sam, and Quake, and it is probable that future ray tracing game mods are planned in the future.Īs you can see in the video below, Half-Life looks incredible with ray tracing enabled, with sultim-t’s fully path traced version offering gamers ray traced global illumination, reflections, refractions, soft shadows and other visual effects.
