How to install a mod Cold Ice Remastered
Unpack the archive.
Move the folders ice_beta5 and ice_beta5_sp to the root directory of the game.
(Optional) Move the contents of the ice_beta5_hd folder into ice_beta5 if you want to play with HD textures.
Launch the game, go to the "Change game" menu and select either the multiplayer mode (Steam version required) or single-player.
Enjoy!
To avoid entering the "Change game" menu every time you start the mod, you can:
Option 1: Launch via shortcut
Go to the properties of hl.exe and in the Target field (for example: "D:\Games\Half-Life\hl.exe") add a space and then write -game followed by the name of the mod folder in the game root directory. It should look like this: "D:\Games\Half-Life\hl.exe" -game mod_folder_name
Apply the changes.
Launch the mod using this shortcut.
Option 2: Launch via Steam
Open Steam, click on the "Games" menu > "Add a Non-Steam Game".
Browse to the game folder and select hl.exe.
A shortcut will appear in your library.
Right-click on it, select Properties, and in the "Launch Options" field write the full path to hl.exe (for example: "D:\Steam\steamapps\common\Half-Life\hl.exe") and add -game plus the mod folder name after a space. It should look like this: "D:\Games\Half-Life\hl.exe" -game mod_folder_name
Launch the mod through this Steam shortcut.
