Maps
| Filename | Notes |
|---|---|
| c2a2h.bsp | |
| c3a1c.bsp | Oddity. Presumed leftover from the cut Communications Center chapter. Parts of this were later repurposed for Half-Life: Uplink. |
Models
Within Net Test 2, we got our first look at the early playermodels for four characters, Gordon Freeman, Gina Freeman (later Gina Cross), Helmet & the HGrunt. All four models use brighter, more saturated textures. Additionally, the p_models for the Crossbow and RPG use their earlier designs.
