Source 2 SDK will ship with Half-Life: Alyx

[Deleted member 44371]

I think this deservers its own thread. I remember modding with source 1 back when half life 2 got released. maybe we will get a new Garrys Mod? Who knows?



The community will be availble to build and share environments via Steam workshop.

Secret megaton, can't wait to fuck around with this

Source 2 Hammer hype

 

[Jroc]

Non-VR mod incoming

 

[Papacheeks]

Half life 3 is on the way for sure.

 

[Daniel Westlake]

Fucking awesome

 

[Villein]

Source 2 Hammer wooo!

 

[HeavenlyE]

Could this mean CS:GO ported to Source 2 soon?

 

[TheCongressman]

This is huge. I can't believe this is happening.

 

[Deleted member 12129]

Valve's back, boys!

 

[Falchion]

Oh shit Source 2! It's been so long coming!

 

[Wolf]

I'm hyped as fuck for HL:A but even more hyped for this.

GIMME DEM TOOLS

 

[JMY86]

Wow! Could the floodgates finally be opening...?

 

[YaBish]

Jesus I remember reading about Source 2 like 5-6 years ago and it seemed like it would come out sometime soon back then.

Valve getting back into more games? :)

 

[Tambini]

L4D3, HL3, Portal 3

it's happening!

 

[BlackJace]

Okay but where is portal 3

 

[Fart Master]

Half life 3 is on the way for sure.

Source has been used in many non valve games so I think if anything this is just valve trying open more possible avenues of growth. Not to say HL3 isn't happening because anything is possible but I don't think this correlates with that.

This is the secret biggest news

RESPAWN IT'S TIME

I can't wait for Black Mesa 2 after they port over Black Mesa to Source 2 in 10 years.

 

[Deleted member 10795]

Yeah there's no way we aren't getting a new wave of Valve games from this point.

 

[TheUnseenTheUnheard]

Legit shaking

 

[Woffls]

I guess valve has been quiet for all these years because they were waiting for Source 2 to be finalised before committing to anything significant? I'd expect Valve to have a few more announcements in the pipeline for next year.

 

[oRuin]

I thought the source 2 sdk was released along side a dota2 update? Mmm.

 

[SirFritz]

You guys realise dota 2 has been on source 2 for years right? With the updated hammer and everything.

 

[Rösti]

Excellent news. I have been waiting for this day for a long time.

 

[Charamiwa]

This is bigger than the game itself. Oh my god this brings a whole new era.

Yup thought so.

 

[collige]

Didn't this already exist when Dota 2 added mod tools? The announcement doesn't say that Hammer is now launching, just that it's been updated.

 

[anastiel]

big news L4D3 is coming

 

[Deleted member 8468]

Radical. Everything about today's news is better than expected.

 

[TheAndyMan]

About time.

This! Cant wait for Garrys Mod 2!

Can we get SFM 2?

Yeah, it was all there but it was pretty custom tailored to Dota 2. This ideally would be more game agnostic.

 

[Gamesadict]

Oh shit, I completely forgot about the possibility of custom content with this game. Damn.

 

[Betty]

Pretty big deal.

 

[BordyDogue]

:o

 

[Deleted member 44122]

hopefully coming to csgo too. i put my map on hold waiting for source 2 a while ago :P

TitanFall 3 on the way using SOURCE 2

 

[xyla]

Finally Source 2 is polished up!

Source 1 was such a versatile engine, it was a pity to see that they had to keep 2 on lock for a while because it wasn't in the state they wanted it to be.

Hopefully devs will get into it like they did with source 1.

If someone wants to spend over a year completley redesigning the game ya

 

[Deleted member 28523]

this is huge news. source 2 has been in development for so long

With how complex the newer maps are getting, it feels like we're about due.

Dota 2 has been running on source 2 for years now.

Depends, do you want a new one for...things?

..yess...

All jokes aside, I'd like a new SFM to get rid of some of the limitations of the first Source engine. E.g., a limit of only several dynamic lights in a scene can be truly infuriating depending on what you're trying to achieve.

 

[dmgdbug]

black mesa delayed to 2025

wrong thread lol

Technically the SFM that ships with the Dota 2 SDK is running Source 2. It's essentially feature identical though.
