Oh. My. God. Is this true? This is the torrent I've been waiting for all my life. If this works, I will be able to die happy.

Teedalt at 2010-10-28 07:21 CET:

BTW, 1.52 Mb/s! nice.

1TWISTED at 2010-10-28 14:19 CET:

thanks,.. nice job,.. well done,.. ; )

Going to try it on my G5 PPC Dual CPU 2.6 with 8gb. RAM. hope it works.
But if not, Thanks for the UL.

Yamcha67 at 2010-10-29 02:54 CET:

Downloaded, It works :)..

xsimsimx at 2010-10-30 10:41 CET:

guys, please seed-,-

Yamcha67 at 2010-10-30 17:43 CET:

Just posting to say that this official mac port is going to be about half as slow as playing it through bootcamp in Windows.. Valve has done a shit job porting this :P

offtza at 2010-10-31 13:13 CET:

Flawless victory, works even on the intel part of the mb pro gpu tandem.

Shunnabunich at 2010-10-31 18:18 CET:

@Yamcha67: One might also say that Valve is doing everything they can on their end, and that Apple has done a shit job competing with DirectX (mainly because they couldn't care less about games if they tried).

Yamcha67 at 2010-10-31 23:01 CET:

@Shunnabunich

Yeah your probably right..

halfchicken at 2010-11-01 22:22 CET:

does it work on a mac book pro 13"?

staab at 2010-11-03 16:32 CET:

I can't get any of the episodes to run past the loading screen. Bummer. I'm running on a 2x2.66 Intel G5, and OS X.5.8

Anyone any ideas?

staab at 2010-11-03 23:29 CET:

Sorry, a 2 x 2.66 Ghz Dual-Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro. So no G5, that was a force of habit.

staab at 2010-11-05 18:53 CET:

@Apo: Thanks for your reply, but which preferences and where?

jc_979 at 2010-11-12 04:25 CET:

@Apo, not sure how to fix this but after i dld the file and try to open one of the games they crash before anything comes up. Any ideas?

natogun at 2010-11-18 23:06 CET:

@Shunnabunich: Apple aren't the ones writing OpenGL. Whine at them if you think OpenGL is lacking and whine at the game companies for not using it.

natogun at 2010-11-18 23:06 CET:

Also, if I'm not mistaken this is a Cider port and not a "proper" port?

Xsdeaf at 2010-11-20 03:58 CET:

OMFG IF THIS IS REAL I WILL BE SOO HAPPY:) if it doesnt work,i can always get hl2 port, it works

margitmayer at 2010-11-20 08:50 CET:

Hi. Fantastic Upload!
On my iMac, it basically runs very well. Very easy to install.

Small issues I have - if anybody know the answer I'd be happy. There are some annoying gaphic mistakes on the first part, object and ladders are not shown, and some times humans two (i only see the eyes and their teeth) Where at the same time funny, it is a bit annoying. Does anybody know how to fix that?

Great Upload Thank you!

Kyur at 2010-11-21 04:42 CET:

anyone get a flickering with objects in the game?

margitmayer at 2010-11-21 09:07 CET:

Hi Kyur, yeah I hve that. It is really annoying. i can't enjoy the game. You often don't see objects like ladders or enemies.
I have an Imac IntelCore.
Anybody out there who know how I can make that stop?

margitmayer at 2010-11-22 20:01 CET:

The Flickering Objects Problem is discussed throughout the internet - but no solution.
Actually when you switch on the in-game-console you can see several errors messages coming up.
Somebody said "r_worldlights 0
" would fix it. But it did not work for me :-(

Did anybody fix that problem yet?

margitmayer at 2010-11-22 20:02 CET:

btw. console can be switched on at option/advanced/console and than during the game the "

artraya at 2010-11-23 03:16 CET:

@margitmayer I have the same issues and do agree with you, it is annoying. After all it is a rip but yeah a solution would be lovely. If not I am considering to just buy the games since they are very cheap!!

moenia at 2010-11-23 15:19 CET:

OMFG, my average speed is 5 MB/s! This might be the best torrent I've ever had. You guys rock!

bobi29 at 2010-11-29 11:23 CET:

iv intalled it to my hard drive as it says to, but as soon as i go to start the game it it just cuts of an says relaunch but it just happens all again, why is this???? any ideas reli wanna ply the game

wMin17 at 2010-12-07 12:35 CET:

WORKS PERFECT!!!!!!! ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS!!!!!!!

NuclearPsycho at 2011-01-07 23:19 CET:

SWEEET! Works great! Runs great! Nothing bad at all. The speed was nice !

Can you upload Counter Strike source, maybe Garry's mod too?

mrQuick at 2011-01-14 14:41 CET:

At the opening screen and the main menu, I have perfect sound. When the game actually begins, all sound just goes away. Anyone else have a sound issue?

laurent2101 at 2011-01-14 16:46 CET:

In console just type
It solved the flickering bug for me !
r_WaterDrawReflection 1 Enable water reflection
r_WaterDrawRefraction 1 Enable water refraction

laurent2101 at 2011-01-14 16:54 CET:

You can even turn on water refraction in fact

mrQuick at 2011-01-14 19:10 CET:

@Laurent
Do you mean terminal? I'm not sure what console is.

Sir_RUSH at 2011-01-19 06:57 CET:

@mrQuick Terminal, Console, CLI, Shell, MS-DOS, they are all the same thing. Except MS-DOS was not multi-tasking, the others are. :) Depends on your computer experience; knowledge. Apple, Macintosh, Amiga, Commodore-Amiga, C64, C128, TRS80 or Trash-80...etc. Get it? Each incarnation (Life) is about learning and having Fun. :)

Sir_RUSH at 2011-01-19 08:07 CET:

Thus far, I've run all programs; each release, and so far they seem to be cool. I'll report back if any challenges I cannot resolve.

Thanks a lot for the release and Share. It IS deeply appreciated. If all continues to run smooth, I will support by buying BUT continue to use This. :) After all, cracked means no extra junk installed on our systems. No matter how careful we are and What we Know. ;-) I Do NOT Support Copy Protection; and being screwed by those that do. Under all that..The Awesome Programmers DO deserve support. Keep the Scene Alive AND Support those who Care enough to make Worth-It Software.

guitarjoa at 2011-01-24 14:09 CET:

Thanks so much! I didn't know i could play games in this quality on my 15" MBP...

Franklint at 2011-02-05 11:55 CET:

Is there any chance someone could strip Portal from this and upload it here? The Windows port I have doesn't show me what's on the other side of the portals, making it basically unplayable. Would love the native version.

Cheers,
Franklint

abhi10105 at 2011-02-14 18:13 CET:

I am using a macbook pro intel core 2 duo. When i am playing the game (Halflife2), game crashes when ever loading starts during the game(while game progresses). even the game settings are not being saved. please help.

Timmiex at 2011-02-23 19:02 CET:

I also have the flicker problem how to solve? the 2 things someone said before don't work.

Eetu701 at 2011-03-13 14:18 CET:

For the flickering problem, Go to options, Video, Advanced, and turn water reflection to simple. IT DOESNT FLICKER!!

maardock at 2011-03-13 21:40 CET:

Hi, I can't mount the disk image (dmg) in snow leopard. Can anybody help me with this? Thanks

maardock at 2011-03-13 21:50 CET:

Can't open the dmg i'm running snow leopard

maardock at 2011-03-18 11:57 CET:

Got the dmg fixed, but the game won't load :(
Anybody? Would be great if you could help me!!! thx

pro_digy at 2011-03-22 03:41 CET:

when i play portal and get to the second elevator i become stuck outside the level, any help?

wMin17 at 2011-03-27 07:55 CET:

Great Port! Can't wait 'till they make Half Life 2 Episode 3!

guitarjoa at 2011-04-06 23:35 CET:

Ok I have a problem... Near the end of 'entanglement' when we're back with the doc and the robo-dog. The doc looks for it's pet and then... nothing! I can walk around and do stuff but she doesn't open the door for me.... what can i do? I had a similar problem going out of the transporter, but i just went back a bit and then it worked until here. Any help would be much appreciated.

Ferdyfist at 2011-04-10 15:38 CET:

This is working great! Just remember to keep all the games in the same folder!
I have the Macbook late 2009, 9400m, working totally good!
All of you with problems completing the game:
Open the console(ingame) and type in sv_cheats 1
After that type noclip
That will make you fly though anything. BTW, i completed all the games without this, i did not have any probelms at all! Thanks Apokarteron!

elwin4mad at 2011-04-16 11:37 CET:

For everyone that wants to download this or other mac files:
Only 2 out of 10 games work for me, everyone has a different issue, but this game works!
So if:
2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM , this game will work fine :) Only the sound is gone, but just turn off the sound and listen to music while gaming !

JordyxP at 2011-05-12 04:36 CET:

hey guys, everytime i try and open the disk image, it comes up and says it's corrupted. what do i do?

Raj05 at 2011-05-12 19:13 CET:

@ JordyxP : sorry but if it says it i corrupted....u will have to download the file again....u cant do anything with it

AGADIL at 2011-09-19 21:53 CET:

plays fine in my iMac 11.2 many thanks for this upload looks native

oldgreg13 at 2011-09-20 07:53 CET:

Hey all, same problem as a few others mentioned, HL2 crashes to desktop or to main menu at loading sequences and does not save settings or progress. Any ideas?

NosBurn at 2011-09-26 17:41 CET:

I have iMac 6,1
Intel Core 2 duo 2.16GHz
NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT

And it dosen't work for me it keeps freezing after the load screen.
Help?
Did i miss any steps r graphics card?

DFET at 2011-11-11 11:07 CET:

For those of you with the crashing at sequences and not saving prefs/savegames:

Right click the application -> Show Package Contents
Right click folder "Contents" -> Get Info
In the "permissions" section, choose R/W for current user/owner, R/W for group and R/W for everyone. Below, click on "Apply to enclosed items..." (Snow Leopard: click on the cogwheel. All versions: you may have to click the lock and enter admin credentials to unlock that function). Wait for progress bar to disappear, close all windows, start game, enjoy.

It may work with fewer rights too, maybe there was just one file inside with the wrong permissions, but that solution worked for me, and I can't see a security problem with R/W for everyone.

Feedback appreciated!

chadamjhn at 2011-11-20 22:34 CET:

SO GOOD!

taste126 at 2011-12-14 01:23 CET:

thank you for uploading this.

hoping for some advice - everytime i run the game it loads, the opening sequence plays through, the main menu loads, works for about five seconds, and then my screen goes black and computer freezes.

any ideas? i'm kinda a noob, so, sorry.

taste126 at 2011-12-14 01:24 CET:

P.S. tried DFET's permissions suggestions.

remdog666 at 2011-12-21 09:58 CET:

This version of Half-Life 2 is mired with ridiculous graphical errors. Most interactive object (locks, boxes, etc.), background items (trees, the sky sometimes), and other general things (sawblade that cuts a dude in two during Black Mesa East) pop in and out or don't show up at all. It's cool, and all and the levels before "water hazard" are legit, but after that it's a smack and plop show. I'm running on a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard, Intel HD 3000, 8 GB memory, and a 2.2 GHZ processor. Plenty enough to handle it even at the lowest setting.

chaddi22 at 2012-01-16 03:06 CET:

5 stars. perfect on lion!

Pepper66Led at 2012-01-19 21:14 CET:

Please someone help me!?
I tried what DFET said to solve the stuck at loading problem, but when i do enter the admin code and try to change the settings i still can't actually click on the setting, they remain dimmed.

Is there any other way to fix the problem? Can't play like this ;( ... I made an account for this xD

DaGuBear at 2012-03-22 23:25 CET:

THIS IS AWESOME! Runs perfectly on my mac.
Can we get game-addons from moddb such as nightmare house 2? thats one reason I got this. any suggestions or help?

hugougoh2 at 2012-05-25 03:34 CET:

runs perfectly on macbook pro 13" late 11, Lion 10.7.3! :D

Works on highest settings (y)
I wish you would upload Portal 2 for mac!! All I found didn't work or they are unplayable

marionetteblue at 2012-06-04 01:39 CET:

Also stuck with the loading screen crash issue. I tried to change the permissions of the contents folder using the chmod and chown in terminal but it comes up with the error "Read-only file system," and despite digging through the internet, I still can't find a way to bypass this. Help appreciated?

marionetteblue at 2012-06-04 05:01 CET:

Right, turns out the dmg was was compressed so chmod and all that won't work. Just convert it using

-> hdiutil convert [file location].dmg -format UDSP -o [file location].sparseimage

fury123455 at 2012-08-11 03:04 CET:

how exactly do u convert? i have same problem with loading and quiting and cnt change read and write

geo5john at 2012-09-02 19:38 CET:

works perfect!! MacBook 15' 2.2 Ghz i7 8 GB (early 2011)

Hello, i have just downloaded this torrent, and I tryed to play a mod "Nightmare House 2". Is there any way to play mods? Its a Half Life 2 Chapter 2 Mod

ihazlulz at 2012-10-08 21:24 CET:

i just downloaded this, and only half life 2 is playing... portal, episode 1 and episode 2 do not work... please help

actionwilliams at 2012-10-26 10:51 CET:

If you have the flickering problem:
OPTIONS>KEYBOARD>ADVANCED>ENABLE CONSOLE.
then check out the key for TOGGLE DEVELOPER CONSOLE...set one if needed.
Open console and type: r_WaterDrawReflection 0
Then, if you want:
OPTIONS>VIDEO>ADV>WATER DETAIL to REFLECT ALL.
Hope this helps :)
