With all due respect to you guys, I think you're forgetting that
ultimately Valve is not in the mod-support business. They're in the
business of making their own games, and the success of their titles
shows how well they do it.
Their tools are designed for the way the workflow happens at Valve,

It's my understanding that the gamerules networks its variables
through a proxy class rather than through itself. Have you implemented
an inherited proxy class as well as the gamerules class? Check the SDK

Does the GPL also cover libraries that you use, though? As I
understand it, all of *your* code could be covered under the GPL,
while Valve's is still covered under there license, and doesn't need
to be supplied. It would probably be a royal bitch to decouple the
code that much though, especially
that we link against.

Yeah, no offense, but I don't think you fully understand the

The fact that you can get Linux running on a lower powered machine
doesn't mean much when it comes to raw graphics horsepower. These
resource savings are almost entirely on the CPU/RAM side. A software
contrast to NVIDIA's totally closed development. I mean NVIDIA don't even
