This repository contains the **HLA-NoVR** mod for *Half-Life: Alyx*, a comprehensive modification that enables the game to be played without a VR headset using standard mouse and keyboard controls. The mod replaces VR-specific interactions (e.g., gravity gloves, wrist pockets, flashlight, weapon upgrades) with flat-screen equivalents, while preserving as much of the original gameplay as possible. The core logic is implemented as Lua scripts loaded through the Source 2 VScript system, with compiled map packages (VPK files) per chapter that contain modified entities, world geometry, and custom trigger models. The mod is structured as a game addon and includes a launcher integration, configuration via command-line flags, and a save/load system for player inventory across maps. Although the mod is functional and widely used, the codebase exhibits monolithic design (especially novr.lua), heavy reliance on hardcoded map-specific coordinates and entity names, and several incomplete TODO comments, indicating moderate technical drift.
