Raising the Bar is a mod based off of the idea of amalgamating the earliest concepts of Half-Life 2 into a coherent story. This mod is not a leak-fix, nor is it a concept art recreation gallery; it will be a full story with inspiration from the old material as well as our own ideas of how to make it all fit together.

This looks awesome! I've never understood why they didn't include Houndeye and Bullsquid in Half-Life 2.

Maybe i didn't know something, but what is the reason of creating old monsters models, if you can simply take them (ex. bullsquid, houndeye, gargantua, etc.) from Black Mesa Mod?
However, I'm looking forward to play this mod! Great Job!
Contact me if you got some problems with russian translation.

There's many reasons as to why you would want to make your own version. Copying other peoples' work without permission is taken very seriously in our mod team, and we won't stand for it. Even if we did get their permission, we think ours should be different anyways, even if only a little.

Plus, bullsquids and houndeyes in Black Mesa particularly are practically nothing like the HL2 'beta' concepts.

Because early in HL1 development it had beak instead of tentacles.

This isn't an original mesh right? It looks 1:1 tot he HL2 beta model, is it a fixup, an edit?

Here is the Bullsquid, the classic HL1 enemy, that appears often in the HL2 original storyline.
