HELP Android Modding Preformance Issues

Not sure if this is the right sub, but I need help.

I've installed a couple of mods in Android (and they worked fine) for HL2. Having those few made, the game to launch slower, and maps to load incredibly slower.

Is there anything I can do about this? Ive installed some other mods, and now the game is either loading really slow or won't start and will be stuck on the background loading screen.

Any way or workaround ot anything to have better performance? This is the only real way I can play Half-Life 2, and I wanna play it modded, but having more than four small mods (Texture upscaling and some minor stuff) tanks the preformance horribly. I think this might break the subs rules, and if it does I'll delete the post

Anyways, would really appreciate help.

Err, texture upscaling can double to quadruple your RAM usage. What phone do you have?

Galaxy A15 I had no idea 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Even before the upscaling it took a lot more (Just by replacing the hunter chopper for the petercopter) the whole game
