Title: Source SDK
Post by: Dr Sadako on January 27, 2008, 01:30:19 AM
SDK is Software Development Kit. In Steam you could e.g. create a new mod for HL2 or you could use the program Hammer to create maps for various mods. I have been on Hammer a lot recently because I am learning to create maps for CSS. SDK is a free download (via tools tab in Steam) if you have bought HL2 for example.
 
If you see me on SDK and you send a message I might not see it as it doesn't pop up and flash as it does on Steam. I am not ignoring you it is just that something else is in focus. :byebye:

I once made a small map for DODS. I have often thought about porting one of my favorite dods maps over to cs i.e adding bomb points etc.

Could be cool

My name is Whitey and I am an addict...



I blame Sadako, I just can't put that Hammer down!!:ranting2:

For anyone who has thought about mapping but never got round to it, give it a go. There are some great tutorials out there and although it can be frustrating to start with, it's great once you know the basics. :D

Read the first post. Source SDK is the Software Development Kit for the source engine in HL2.
