Half-Life Rally is a racing modification for the highly acclaimed and everlastingly popular game, Half-Life by Valve Software. Unlike most mods currently being made for the Half-Life Engine, the goal of HL-Rally is not to blast your enemy to smitherines with relentless repetition prone to excessive cheating and hacks, but to race cars and be the first and fastest across the finish line, out-running your opponents in any way possible to gain a few milliseconds on them.

And if you cant win straight away, fear not, as within a couple of races you can save up your credits salary to upgrade your car with a plethora of parts and options, even buying new cars, or trading cars with your fellow racers and enthusiasts. The game takes on a whole new edge when it comes to strategically spending your cash and keeping your winning record rolling. Sophisticated statistics, profiles and your on-line garage are centrally stored on our master servers, so you'll never be without your custom modified cars! (Requires Internet Connection)

For the car enthusiasts and modellers our there, anyone can submit their newly created car to our car-selectors who can make the car available to everyone from the HL-Rally master servers. Simply join a game and select your new car, and the HL-Rally Game-server will download the car model and specifications, and send it to all of the players in the game at the end of the current race! Car packs will of course be available from our Modelling Site: Under the Hood, to assist with keeping everyone updated!

In addition to online game modes, you can also play against our fiendishly clever computer opponents who should provide quite a challenge to even a seasoned driver. In addition to computer controlled opponents you can also race 'vs Clock' in time-trials and car-performance testing modes.

HL-Rally is more than just your average racing game!

I am having trouble installing this mod. It installs itself in the wrong folder. I changed it to the steam sourcemods folder and still nothing. How do I get this mod to appear in the steam menu to play it? I am also having this problem with the ship.

physics is a little fake. there is not enough slip angle no matter how hard i tried. I can only do short powere slides and i can't do maintained drifts. Please improve on that. i understand that it's and HL1 engine so do what you could.

This mod was awesome. I couldnt even believe that HL1 engine can do something like this. Cars were really nicely modeled, and was hard to understand this is made to HL1 Engine. Cant wait for HLR2.

Only bad thing was that the mod has no servers, and it is not much known.

I just gave this mod a go. I'm impressed with what you guys have done...it feels like a retail rally game. My only complaint is that nobody plays it anymore. Looking forward to HL Rally 2. :)
