Did he own half of everything they had or does that just apply to debt?

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
Texas is a community property state, so once your father married your stepmother, the property and income they acquired became community property. Because your father died without a will, the Texas intestate succession laws apply. They determine who is entitled to what part of your dad's estate. Because he left behind a fairly large amount of property, it is necessary for his estate to go through the legal proceeding known as administration. Please make sure to consult with an attorney who is experienced in this type of law. Your step mother's 401k belongs to her. It will be up to her to determine who should inherit it because from your question it appears she is still alive. If she writes a will, that will determine who is entitled to her 401k and retirement accounts.

What is the probate process after a parent's death?

You should speak with an attorney in the state of residence of the Decedent. Also if he owned real property in another state an attorney there should be consulted. Without more details the response to your question would have many alternatives and outcomes. Best of luck to you.
