New Source SDK Update is Now Underway as a Public Beta

[DigiQ8]

You can now get participate in the new Source SDK Update public Beta, modders can now create single player and multi-player mods based in the HL2:Episode Two source code. Also it adds the ability that allows users to add custom scenes to Orange Box games. [br]
To run this beta version you will need to add <code>-beta srcsdk0122</code> to your command line when you start Steam. This can be done by opening up the Windows shortcut you use to launch Steam and adding <code>-beta srcsdk0122</code> right after Steam.exe. For more info click here.

I don't suppose this includes the long-promised EP2 engine updates to HL2 and EP1?

 

[Shamrock]

Worst news update ever. I don't know whether to believe you or not since you did post about the new CTF_Well coming out yesterday, but alas, it didn't.

You, sir, are a fibber.

 

[DigiQ8]

Blame Valve!, don't blame me!
Also i said "if nothing goes wrong"

 

[Shamrock]

I see what you did there. You gave your safe a little safety net. **** you Digi. I still don't believe you for a second! :|

 

[DigiQ8]

You are God in forum-post form.

 

[Shamrock]

See what I did there Digi?

Time for a smack down

Why the heck didn't they use the "participate in beta tests" option in Steam settings? That would make things a bit easier.

yer i spent ages fighting with the shitty security in vista64 to change my shortcut, then discover no particle editor

 

[Forceflow]

No particle editor and broken linux makefiles. I think I'll give this update a miss until it's out of beta.

Does the Hammer Light preview now work correctly ?

 

[-Psy-]

Yes it does.

 

[Irksome]

Does the Hammer Light preview now work correctly ?

It works, but only with light_spot's.

:dozey:
