Shift-Two is an action-oriented mod for Half-Life 1 that continues the tradition of classic fan projects. Players find themselves in new locations where the focus is on action: frequent firefights and intense battles against HECU soldiers and aliens with no long breaks for rest.

(You don’t need to download anything extra to play in these languages)

Despite its relatively short duration, the mod maintains a good pace and is perfect for those who want a quick "dose" of old-school Half-Life.

The developer once planned to release version 2.0 with new locations, but ultimately abandoned his plans.

How to install a mod Shift-Two

  1. Extract the ST folder and place it into the root directory of the game.

  2. Launch the game, go to the Change game menu, and select the mod.

  3. Play!

To avoid entering the "Change game" menu every time you start the mod, you can:

Option 1: Launch via shortcut

  1. 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

  2. Apply the changes.

  3. Launch the mod using this shortcut.

Option 2: Launch via Steam

  1. Open Steam, click on the "Games" menu > "Add a Non-Steam Game".

  2. Browse to the game folder and select hl.exe.

  3. A shortcut will appear in your library.

  4. 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
