For instance, where does one set $(HL2SDKOBVALVE), the variable that tells it where the HL2SDK files for HL2:DM, CS:S, DOD:S, and TF2 are located? Since this will have a different location on each system, this is a variable that needs to be set by the programmer writing the extension.<br /> <br /> I admit, maybe this is because I haven't ever used Visual Studio for C++ before, but this sort of thing seems like the kind of thing that should be explained in the Setting up Visual Studio section.<br /> --[[User:Powerlord|Powerlord]] 02:25, 1 June 2011 (UTC)<br /> :Incidentally, I later realized those were likely environment variables. --[[User:Powerlord|Powerlord]] 02:45, 1 June 2011 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == "An Event is formally called a Forward." ==<br /> <br /> "An Event is formally called a Forward." is a very bad way to phrase this.
