Source 2 & new technologies announced Anonymous ## Board Owner 03/04/15 (Wed) 00:47:00 No.110[Reply]

>Valve announces a number of product and technologies at this week's Game Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco.

>Valve announced the Source 2 engine, the successor to the Source engine used in Valve's games since the launch of Counter-Strike: Source and Half-Life 2. "The value of a platform like the PC is how much it increases the productivity of those who use the platform. With Source 2, our focus is increasing creator productivity. Given how important user generated content is becoming, Source 2 is designed not for just the professional developer, but enabling gamers themselves to participate in the creation and development of their favorite games," said Valve's Jay Stelly. "We will be making Source 2 available for free to content developers. This combined with recent announcements by Epic and Unity will help continue the PCs dominance as the premiere content authoring platform."

>Also as part of supporting PC gaming, Valve announced that it will be releasing a Vulkan-compatible version of the Source 2 engine. Vulkan is a cross-platform, cross-vendor 3D graphics API that allows game developers to get the most out of the latest graphics hardware, and ensures hardware developers that there is a consistent, low overhead method of taking advantage of products. Vulkan, previously called Next Generation OpenGL, is administered by the Khronos Group, along with other standards such as OpenCL, OpenGL, and WebGL.

https://steamdb.info/blog/source2-announcement/

UPDATE: It's announced that Source 2 will NOT require the devs to pay a license fee if they release their game on Steam! However you're not limited to release it on Valve's platform, although you may need to acquire a license for that.

Welcome to /source/

/source/ is a board about Source Engine discussion and development.

This board was created to centralize everything about this engine, many tutorials (for example, mapping) may state they're for an specific game (Counter-Strike) but people may not realize they can be useful for other games or mods. (or even, your own)

You can check a list of rules here, nothing too strict:
https://8ch.net/source/rules.html (Global Rules also apply)

Official Source Thread:
>>16

Suggestions? Do you feel the need to say my board sucks? Do it on this thread! I accept any type of feedback and criticism.

GoldSrc discussion (Half-Life 1, Counter-Strike 1.6…) is also allowed!

Half-Life / GoldSrc Mods Anonymous 02/07/15 (Sat) 06:29:53 No.23 [Reply]

What about a nice thread for HL1 mods? I'll start with two recent ones I loved (Around 2012, which is recent in HL modding).

One is The Trap, it plays kind of like Portal, but the focus is completely different, it has different puzzle elements, and the execution is flawless.
Highly recommended for anyone into both HL and Puzzles.
Link: http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-trap

The other one is Hazardous Course 2, which is the best HL mod I've ever played without a doubt. Don't let the name fool you, it's not just a hazard course, it's an EXTREME version of the original course in every single way conceivable. Absurdly big, balls to the wall hard, full of secrets, the best level design I've ever seen in GoldScr by a huge margin.
Definitely a must play for anyone looking for the ultimate Half-Life challenge.
Link: http://www.moddb.com/mods/hazardous-course-2

PS: You can find all the secrets in any order so you don't have to worry about forgetting some, you will see what I mean, it's part of the marvelous level design.
Also the mod has some bugs, which might be frustrating, one of them is in the train section, if the train gets stuck you have to save and load, it's rare but it may happen.

8chan's Collaborative Effort Anonymous 02/18/15 (Wed) 14:12:54 No.99 [Reply]

This is an idea that's been around my mind while ago. I wonder if there are people here willing to create our own mod, doesn't matter the engine, we can use Source, GoldSource or heck, even Source 2 when it's out.

Nothing serious about it (we ain't gonna create Arrangement Mod or Black Mesa Source), the thing is to create and hopefully, complete it and release to the public. We would brainstorming ideas of what would be the mod about, things like settings, looking a guy who can write the script, looking a mapper, and a coder, etc.

Personally, I'm a bit familiarized with each area in the engine, I know how to edit the HUD, monsters and weapons in the Half-Life source code. How to edit models, knowing subgroups, events, skins and bone controllers. And how to map, things like entities, brushwork, etc. I also know how to edit menus in GoldSource. I'm not familiarized yet with the Source features but I'm learning.

Maybe the multiplayer factor makes it not preferable since it may be dead.
We could also make some singleplayer thing out of it. Like some alien storyline you can beat in multiple ways by choosing a different class.
Headcrabs can get into little ducts. Bullsquids can't jump but can get under most things. Grunts just go trough the bigger paths, might be able to break stuff. Houndeyes can jump around and get into most places. Slaves are kind of like a human, etc.

If you want to be a special snowflake, your PC isn't made for more powerful engines, or just for the sake of it, you can still create awesome stuff in Valve's Older Engine. Although it is recommended to use Source instead, I ain't going to stop you.

Ignore all the "Half-Life SDK" packages that are all around the web, that shit is outdated. Get this instead.
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/halflife
The latest Engine Update made it compatible with Linux and Mac.

If you want to map you can use either the Classic VHE, Sledge Editor, or Jackhammer. My personal choice is Sledge but it's up to you.

Reminder that Sven Coop 5.0 will come out with full scripting capabilities and hugely improved standalone engine.
There is a chance whatever you want to make will be easier to do in Sven Co-op. Since it will be free to play you will have a bigger audience.

Having said that, do not use the standard Zoner tools, use these: http://forums.svencoop.com/showthread.php/40983-Downloads-amp-Changelogs
