Nostalgia Menu

Description
*** TO MAKE THIS MOD WORK, FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS *''*

1. Subscribe this mod.

2.. Go to Steam / SteamApps / common / Black Mesa / bms and open a text file called "gameinfo.txt". Then scroll down until you find "SearchPaths". In this section you´ll see a text "// Black Mesa VPK files.". Above it, type:

game+mod bms/custom/*

Save and quit.

3. In the same location, create a folder named "custom"

4. Go to Steam / SteamApps / workshop / content / 362890 / 1209092869 / and copy Nostalgia Menu.vpk in to the custom folder that you just created.

5. Go back to Workshop and unsubscribe this mod

*** This is the way it has to be done at the moment, I don´t know if Workshop is going to get fixed ***

I think the name says it all. This is a HD remake of the old menu background from Half-Life. It changes the background and menus button sounds. It does NOT change any music, so you can just stick with the original music or use another music mod with this. Alternatively, if you want to silence the start up music, I made an extra mod that mutes it.

To create this mod, I used a stock texture from www.texturelib.com as a base texture which I heavily edited. I tried to find the original texture again but it´s pretty much unrecognizable now.

Tools: Gimp 2, Hammer, VTFedit and Audacity

Thanks to members of Black Mesa forums for guidance and suggestions!

P.S. This mod is in its´ final state, so don´t bother suggesting changes. You also don´t have to tell me if you don´t like or don´t want to use this mod, it´s useless information for everyone.

This still works, actually. You just need to switch back to the old GUI by adding "-oldgameui" to the launch options. :)

The thing that makes me upset about looking at this, is being a little kid again and having that bliss. Remembering back when my folks stored floppys of skins, maps and of the like.. hell even remembering when they were showcasing Half Life 2's physic engine for the first time... games honestly won't be able live up those moments anymore..
