Dexter Haslem 41130702a1 updated VPC structure 
I was wrong about having 'to include the entire contents' of HL2MP VPCs.
Made it easy to remove HL2DM sdk files as we go without touching stock VPCs,
through usage of '-$File' wizardry. it needs folder structure to match for some
wacky fun reason though.

VPC notes

loading order

default.vgc is always loaded first. this sucks and isnt super ideal but its easy to change.

default.vgc defines game strings you can pass to vpc 'vpc /gamestr' to pick which conditional gets set. default.vgc loads groups and projects (all)

gotcha: VPC seems to ignore VPCs not in a group (thus no sln), even when in a project unless you force generate them..

adding new junk that you want to generate projects for

  1. create your custom vpc
  2. (Optional) add the vpc $Project to a group in your group file (see default.vgc)
  3. run 'vpc +ProjectName' to make it spit out vcxprojs. if it cant find your 'ProjectName', you may need to add the vpc to your project file in default.vgc.
  4. if you want to create a solution for a group (or single project for some wacky reason) pass '/mksln ' to vpc

File paths

Adding: $Folder has no effect on path when trying to find $File. it is solely for creating 'filters' in the VS project. Removing: You must recreate the $Folder structure that was used when adding or else it wont actually remove shit!! eg. $Folder "HL2MP" { -$File "hl2mp\hl2mp_client.cpp" } If you just try: -$File "hl2mp\hl2mp_client.cpp" It wont fucking work
