The defacto tool for previewing Half-Life models is Mete Ciragan's Half-Life Model Viewer. However, the current version doesnt support the new texture features of Day of Defeat that will be included in the next Half-Life patch.

• GUI re-organised


• Default background colour is now blue/grey instead of black


• "Save Options" allows you to save your preferences so they are loaded next time you start HLMV


• Dump Model Info option creates a text file giving a detailed breakdown of your models internal structure


• Acts as a front-end to STUDIOMDL and MDLDEC allowing you to decompile and compile models from within HLMV


• Can open GCF, PAK, WAD and BSP files


• Poly counter shows how many polygons are being drawn


• Supports the Alpha and Additive texture flags


• Displays transparent and additive textures in the model preview


• Texture flags can be set and previewed and saved to the model


• Option to view the UV Map for any given texture


• Sequence panel now shows additional sequence parameters


• Events for a given sequence can be viewed


• Previewing of new weapon origins for v_model's (tweaked this version)


• Addition of crosshair and guides for helping with re-origining weapons


• Small bugs from HLMV 1.25 fixed
