Although this rediscovery is fairly recent[1], information about Marlin's role in Half-Life 2's textures is present, dating back to 2007[2].

Subtitled "Rustic Exterior Textures", it contains a variety of wood, rust, metal and concrete exterior textures. It is unclear when this is released, although the earliest archived version of March 1, 2000[3] shows it already released, with the fifth pack being the latest.
