*Shudder* I ditched VC++ 6.0 as soon as I got a hold of VC++ 7.1. Poor
standards compliance, and in particular poor support for templates drove me
away. I'm very curious as to why you'd want to use .NET with C++ instead of
C#, and in particular with VC++ 6.0...

There used to be a free Express version of VC++ 7.1 (VS 2003), but I've done
some extensive searching and haven't been able to locate it. Apparently MS
pulled it from their site when 2005 was around to replace it.

MS has a HL2 mod spot at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/coding4fun/half-life/default.aspx . They claim
that they're working with Valve to get the SDK compiling with VS 2005, but
it'll be a while before we see anything. I once tried to compile the SDK
with the VS 2005 Beta 2 (available for minimal cost at
www.getthebetas.com<http://www.getthebetas.com>-- it rocks, btw), but
I think I stopped at linker errors. I had a strong
suspicion that even if I could get the SDK to compile with 2005, it would
crash on startup.
