For all you guys that want improved performance, add this to the HL2 "Launch Options" (right click the HL2 icon, click properties) and then add this line:

-heapsize 512000

Replace the 512 with how much RAM you would like HL2 to use, it uses a default of 64 :O

can i get confirmation on this from someone else? if i have, for example, 512 megs of ram, what should i set it to?

[Mobius?]

64 is low, that's probably video RAM.



It takes AT LEAST 10 times that to load a level.

the guy got noooooo idea wut hes talking about, a game use as much memory as it can and need, and if u run out of ram, its gonna put it on the HD, but the HD is slower, so that cmd, if it really work, will fuck more stuff than help, and theres a known bug that make the game freeze for like 1 sec everytime a new sound play, its not ur 512mb ram

ahhh i thought my computer just sucked!

I finished it and it was ok. It was really easy too especially when you know 3 useful commands.



sv_cheats 1

god

noclip



So I basically used the crowbar most of the game and if I fell I would just noclip back up. I did all the puzzles they weren't difficult. I personally liked HL better. It's hard for a sequel to top the original and not a rehash.



I might play it again without cheats. I just wanted to see all the scripted events. Again it was well done. Just not anything over the top. Even the twist wasn't that surprising. I guess with all the hype my expectations were set too high, I'm not disappointed but it didn't have the "wow" factor I was looking for.

snoop_bob, is there a solution to this bug yet? i couldn't wade through all five pages of that thread.

god damn we dont go to ravenholme is freaky... its late and i just turned it off... too damn scared...



why r so many people not posting here? soooo looooooowwwwww



oh and i have that sound problem too...



p4 1.6

512 ram

fx 5200

models high shadows high shader high texture quality high...

no lag except at times... heheheh...

1 word:

optimize before useage

[kerosine99]

i think its because most people are playing HL2.



anyway -- i have work that needs to be done, so i'm telling myself i can't play, yet i'm here procrastinating when i could be playing...



hmm.

[Sn00p_B0B]

i got an amd64 3000+ with 512mb ram and a radeon 9550 256mb and that happen alot at first i was sure cuz my comp wasnt defragmented but it was stil happening after, some guy said that hl2 use around 600mb of mem but ppl with 1 gig of ram still get that problem, and turning the gfx way down dont stop that problem, no1 tryied turning the sound off but it would be kind of ghey to play without sound :O

[kerosine99]

it seems really noticebly when you first start the game up, but after a few reloads and some time playing either the instances of this bug decreases or i cease to notice it.



who knows?

[Snydenthur]

Try if the command "precache 1" works in hl2. In cs that helps to the same problem.
