Description

This mini-mod changes the HUD, or more specifically the health, armor and ammo digits and icons at the bottom of the screen to reflect the general design of Half-Life and Half-Life: Blue Shift, using the familiar Trebuchet MS as typeface instead of the default interlaced OCR-A. This addon has the nice bonus of potentially introducing you to a new word, "canonical".

what's canonical about it again? Shephard doesn't use an HEV suit, so why would he use the HEV suit hud style?

Canonical more in a design sense (typeface), also HLOF equally uses HEV stations unlike Blue Shift, it's not entirely logical either. "Canonical" was the best term I could think of, I didn't really wanna name it "Trebuchet MS" as not everybody is a typo nerd out there like me. But yeah, "canonical" actually primarily focuses on lore I guess, so it is a little unfortunate.

Edit: I renamed it Trebuchet Fix, and will possibly also replace the HEV suit icon.
