Update November 17th 2023: Removed all contents that were included in the 25th anniversary update for HL1 on Steam. This is all of the official content that Valve/Gearbox has released for Half-Life and Opposing Force Deathmatch on PC that is NOT currently included on the Steam versions of the games. All HL1 content is compatible with Opposing Force. However the Opposing Force maps are not compatible with Half-Life 1.
