btw, there *really* aren't *that many* differences between 2007 and 2009, granted, it probably would be nicer to have an SDK for it, just so that it's the latest and greatest, but there are no significant changes in the code. and last i looked, it should have no problem loading 2007 compiled mods, as the interfaces required haven't changed from what I can see. (TF2 is running 2009, and you run mods from that engine, at least where the DS is concerned..)
I suppose the next best thing would be just to update "source sdk base 2007" up to "source sdk base 2009". - Tony On Sat, Jul 30, 2011 at 10:06 PM, Tobias Kammersgaard < tobias.kammersga...@gmail.com> wrote: > The biggest problem with using the ASW code is really the lack of Half-Life > 2 content.
