Half-Life: Opposing Force is an expansion pack for Valve Software's science fiction first-person shooter video game Half-Life. The game was developed by Gearbox Software and published by Sierra Entertainment on November 1, 1999. Opposing Force is the first expansion for Half-Life and was first announced in April 1999. Randy Pitchford, the lead designer on the game, later noted that he believed Gearbox was selected to develop Opposing Force because Valve wanted to concentrate on their future projects. Over the course of development, Gearbox brought in a variety of outside talent from other areas of the video games industry to help bolster various aspects of design. Opposing Force returns to the same setting as Half-Life, but instead portrays the events from the perspective of a U.S. Marine, one of the enemy characters in the original game. The player character, Adrian Shephard.
Description
This is one of the two demos released for Half-Life. The first one, called Day One, was just shipped with certain video cards and never released to the public. It contained the first day of Half-Life's story, from "Black Mesa Inbound" to "We've got Hostiles". Half-Life Uplink was the official demo released in 1999, and it contained a few unique levels that didn't appear in Half-Life. This is the original installer, it may have some problems with newer OSs and it doesn't have some features of the Steam version like 32-bit color mode. This installer doesn't require Half-Life (Original or Steam version).

I had the same problem. You have to run the application with Compatibility Mode. I recommend using the Windows 98 option

He means Right click the application then head into Compatibilty and click on the OS stuff. I can run windows 98 and I have Win XP

Go change to OpenGl

One hundred quintillion.
Does anyone happen to have the Hammer files for this? I do not need WinBSPC or BSP2MAP converted, it is crap.
Thanks, works very good.
Game of the Year. It's official.
(Seriously though, you NEED to check out this game.)
I have a serious problem. Whenever I try and change the video mode to OpenGL, it auto opens chrome and minimizes the game. I can't get the game back open.

I'm trying to find a way to make this and day one 1366 by 768. Does anyone know how I could do this?
Installer says I need an extra 821GB to install (With 3TB left on HDD). Can be ignored and installed without any issues, but does anyone know what that's about?
is it a virus?
