Rad-Therapy 2 (FreeHL2)

Clean-room reimplementation of Half-Life 2 & Half-Life 2: Deathmatch in QuakeC.

This is 100% original code, feel free to audit however you wish. No proprietary SDKs have been looked at or taken apart, unlike similar projects.

The engine you want to use to run this is FTEQW (https://www.fteqw.org), which is a project unrelated to this. It just happens to support the file-formats FreeHL2 needs.

Building

Clone the repository into the Nuclide-SDK:

git clone REPOURL hl2

then either run Nuclide's ./build_game.sh shell script, or issue 'make' inside ./hl2/src!

Obviously make sure that Nuclide has fteqw and fteqcc set-up for building and that you have some proficiency in QuakeC.

Notes

If you're playing a mod that relies on FreeHL2, selecting it from the Custom Game menu alone works fine. However if you want to launch it via the command-line you need to make sure to add -game hl2 before -game modname. The order is important.
