    worldcraft if you want to convert it to hl2. You probably don't have long to wait for the hl2 tools though.

    hey jay...

    welcome to the mapcore forums. once HL2 ships there should be a huge surge in discussion about the engine around here.

    see you around!

    leaked HL stuff.

    The HL2 SDK will be released when HL2 is released, that is what Valve said :roll:

    No, the HL2 SDK will come out before HL2 is released is what valve said.

    1. Dude : When do you plan on releasing the SDK? Gabe : Soon. We're testing it with two MOD teams now.

    2. Dude : Something about the release of the SDK

    Jay Stelly : The SDK is not quite ready yet. As soon as it's ready to go you'll get it!

    Yes, they said that. But they also said HL2 was gonna be done Sept. 30 of last year untill the last minute. I figure the tools will come out around the same time as the game if not a little later. Probably late November. You can do brushwork in Hammer now. Just read the other thread (Brush vs. Mesh) and Zaphod already explained what should be brushes and what should be meshes.
