The Great Valve Refactoring - HLX Files #12
Added 2025-07-31 03:07:12 +0000 UTCTHIS IS UNFINISHED, AND HAS SECTIONS OF BLANK-NESS FOR TIMING, OVERLAYS ARE NOT COMPLETED.
The latest Counter-Strike 2 update quietly overhauled Source 2’s animation and AI systems — and in doing so, leaked a ton of HLX content. This is the clearest sign yet that Valve is getting ready to ship something.

Hey, can you post the overlays here so we can read them now?

2025-07-31 09:46:40 +0000 UTCHey, Tyler. Great video. Your gameplay footage is a cropped, and it seems to become more cropped as the video progresses. The UI elements like ammo and health counts are getting further and further off the screen. It looks a bit unpolished and distracting, and it would be great if it could be fixed for the final release. XephOr.Tech already pointed this out in their comment and suggested a solution, but thought I'd repeat for visibility.

2025-07-31 08:14:41 +0000 UTCIf I had to guess, configurable lightweight bodies are probably small physics objects. Game engines will usually refer to physics objects as “bodies”. So we’re talking about tweaking different properties of a physics object that is “lightweight”, or simple on the physics system. I could be wrong though

2025-07-31 04:18:51 +0000 UTCI truly wonder what the gimmick might be for this game in terms of the gameplay. I know valve usually uses their games a vessel for showcasing technical innovations but from this info dump I’m just assuming it’ll be mostly ai NPC and player interactions. Im personally hoping they take risks when it comes to the storytelling .
