-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I think this has been a resounding success, valve probably would not have found all these bugs before releasing the update.
Now this got me thinking, what if this optional command was extended to the actual engine? It would certainly help valve to prevent another patch like the 9/30 patch. Say for example, there is a normal 'source engine.gcf' which we would launch normally and there would be a 'source engine beta.gcf' which we would launch our mods and valve games on the launch properties like -betaengine. This would help us the MOD community test for breaking changes and if we started having problems that valve couldnt produce with their Q&A process. What do you guys think?
