Rocket Crowbar

A fun Half-Life 1 mod. At first glance there's nothing special about it: the same weapons, the same maps, but every weapon fires in its own way. For example, the crowbar's alternate attack launches a rocket that flies along a random path. You can play as monsters, fly a helicopter, or be a stationary turret.



Installation:
1. Copy the contents into the root Half-Life folder (where the hl.exe file is located)
For example D:/Games/Half-Life or D:/Steam/SteamApps/common/Half-Life
2. Restart Steam, and Rocket Crowbar should appear in your list of games

If you're an evil pirate and don't have a couple of bucks to buy Half-Life 1, do the following.
Copy the contents of the archive into the root directory of your Half-Life and run hl.exe with the following parameters:

hl.exe -game RockCrowbar

You can create a bat file or a desktop shortcut.
