Do you realise how much time it takes to learn new tools, workflow and to develop something interesting?

A couple days. 

 

edit: Hasn't it been 4 years?

LOL.

Lets not trash this thread with someone being sad because they dont know how to run the tools. If you need help with that go to help section of the forum.

Show you some screenshots? How about show us some screenshots of the issue you’re having?
 

That’s about all we can do for you.

I just finished a full scene in scr2, had it's problems with the tools here and there, nothing major. And the workshop already has a decent library of mods and growing every day.

 If we were just more vocal about how much this sucks as a community to Valve, maybe they would catch on, but I think people are too nice to Valve. I personally do not even believe Valve is pro Mods nowadays, I think they're following the same trend as Activision Blizzard and they're going to perpetually lock everything down and then feed you walled garden 'curated' experiences like in CSGO.

We were vocal for ten years about HL3 and we still didn’t get it, what makes you think harassing them will change anything?

I hope you are wrong about the rest, I mean they released tools, for half-baked they are, so I can’t/don’t want to believe they are heading that way… hopefully is just the flat structure (if still in place) that is creating these problems

There are literally zero issues with the tools. You really need to try hard to get any sort of issues there

Well from what I’ve seen on YouTube there are critics on how mods are managed for example, you can’t have mods that run stand alone, etc.

Well Im speaking tools not entire approach to addons vs mods.

yo I just uploaded a new source 2 tutorial with some pretty interesting stuff in it. 

How to Transition to Source 2: Advanced Mapping Concepts

Very interesting insight in the new engine. Since i don't have HL:A, for me it's like watching level designer pornography. From what i had seen, the Light probe entity it's very similar with the one from cry engine 5. What it isn't clear for me, is that you can make props from anything, like that table, or just from already existing props, like with that tree?

eagle one have a bunch of tutorial videos now

source2 is still very new so I'm sure more will be learnt as time goes on but it's exciting to finally be getting into something 'new'!

I actually found the Eagle One playlist accidentally myself recently.

I don’t have Alyx, but I started watching the vids anyway to get an understanding of the new principles. Very good series!
