Half-Life Asset Manager is a new tool that has been developed to support multiple asset types compared to its predecessor Half-Life Model Viewer. This innovative tool offers many benefits, including the ability to easily update and support other 
Half-Life assets in the future. Another advantage of using Half-Life Asset Manager is that it eliminates any unsuitable associations with HLMV.exe created by previous versions of the program[Clarify].
