to clear it up a bit: VPC scripts contain the basic info that are being used to create makefiles and visual studio files, as well as XCode files for Mac. the scripts in the src root folder will run vpc and can be executed any time, which means that you should avoid shipping project files with a SCM and put things into your own vpc scripts, each project has them (mathlib, tier1, client, server, shaders), search for them and then create them in the same fashion, what you need to remember is that src/vpc_scripts/default.vgc contains a list of accepted game switches that you can pass to vpc, so if you have a mod called "foo" then you do the following: add "FOO" to said default script, add the "FOO" directives to the projects.vgc script in the same folder to make the following possible. copy server_hl2mp.vpc or whatever base you're using and rename it to server_foo.vpc and then add your own Project, Files, Folder Blocks like the base file does (vpc concats all those into one single project file) do the same with client, if you now run vpc /foo +game /mksln games.sln (or use +games if you want to compile your own shader in which case look at src/materialsystem/stdshaders ) there are probably other things to watch out for but it's essentially just that, and tada, you're able to create project files the vpc way (with windows, linux and mac support) On 05.09.2013 17:05 GMT+2, Radimir Bobev wrote: > > I think you're on to something.
