The Manual Weapon Pickup mod allows you to only pick up weapons from in the world or from fallen enemies if you hit use on it. The next two mods are utilized in conjunction with Weaponsets to give a more balanced gameplay experience. Later in the guide I will explain how to use the weaponsets mod in conjunction with Lambda.
This mod is necessary to spawn in addon weapons, as the Lambda gamemode does not allow access to the spawn menu.
This is a very simple console based system that allows you to set up custom weapon loadouts and spawn them into your inventory. The second key to this gameplay experience is the WeaponSets mod. The unintended side effect of this gamemode is that it gives basic support to playing with custom weapons and single player source mods, such as those available on ModDB.Īs of the time of this writing, the Half Life 2 campaign is 100% playable up until the aquisition of the super gravity gun in the Citadel.
This gamemode also gives multiplayer support to the campaign. This is the core mod that allows compatibility with Half Life 2 and Garrysmod, and adds many coop and other gamechanges that lead to a coherent campaign experience. The first required mod is the Lambda Coop Framework Mod. I have made a Collection of necessary mods required to play through these campaigns with custom weapons.
