Well, normally it shouldn't interfere with your mod in any way, but you can only verify that yourself by testing. I do remember a case where a breaking change was made in the 2013 SDK quite a while ago, but that was announced in a Steam community and on this mailing list.
If I'm not mistaken, the SDK Base contains just the engine.dll itself (and a lot of other components it depends on, of course), which in turn loads your server and client code. That means if the interfaces between those modules have not changed in a way that would break compatibility, there should be nothing for you to worry about. ________________________________ From: Gavin Isgar<mailto:gisg...@gmail.com> Sent: 12.04.2015 00:13 To: Discussion of Half-Life Programming<mailto:hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com> Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Modding Problems I wanted to use Source SDK Base 2007 for a reason.
