[[Category:Half-Life_1]]
The HL1SDK is the [[VALVe_Software|Valve]]-provided API and sample code used for creating mods and [[Metamod]] plugins for [[Half-Life_1|Half-Life 1]].

You can find the HL1SDK files [http://metamod.sourceforge.net/files/sdk/ here]

{{Stub}}

==HL SDK Intro==
Okay, the HL SDK is a Development Kit, you can do all kinds of things with this, for example, create a modification for Half Life is one of the things, or you can look at the brief tutorial of making game models. You can use the default tools the HL SDK has provided to start working to create a modification, the sprite tool ( in SDK\Sprite Tools )... and also, the out-dated and not recommended Worldcraft aka Valve Hammer Editor to create maps, you might want to use different compiler tools and a different Hammer Editor([http://www.google.com Download here]) and for the tools I recommend ZHLT, Zoners Half Life Tools([http://www.zhlt.info Download here]).

==Making Mods, Part 1==

Configuring AMX Mod X

2006-06-29T23:43:30Z

Smokey485: /* Admins */

=Admins=
See the section on [[Adding Admins (AMX Mod X)|Adding Admins]] for more information.

Note: If you have trouble installing AMX Mod X onto your server, then read this entire thing and not skim through it. Kthx

=Plugins=
==Installing==
Often, plugins will have their own directions if they need special installation requirements. However, this will instruct you on the basics of adding a plugin.
#Follow any directions the plugin author has given you. If the plugin requires extra steps or special files, make sure you have them in the proper place and order.
#If you are given a .sma source file instead of a .amxx, you must compile the plugin yourself. For more information, see [[Compiling Plugins (AMX Mod X)]].
#Place the plugin's .amxx file in the addons/amxmodx/plugins folder.
#Add the plugin's name to addons\configs\plugins.ini. Example: <pre>myplugin.amxx</pre>
#Restart the server or change maps. If the plugin has any load errors, see [[Troubleshooting AMX Mod X#Plugins]].

==Removing==
#Remove the entry from addons\amxmodx\configs\plugins.ini by deleting it or prepending a semi-colon to comment it out.
#Delete any associated files.

=Modules=
Modules add additional functionality for plugins to use.
==Installing==
#Figure out what operating system your server is: Windows, Linux, or Linux using AMD64 (64bit).
#If the module is 3rd party, download the module corresponding to your OS. It will end in .dll for Windows, _i386.so for Linux, or _amd64.so for AMD64.
#Place the file in addons/amxmodx/modules/ and follow any additional instructions.
#If the module is already in addons/amxmodx/configs/modules.ini, remove the ';' next to its name to enable it.
#Otherwise, add the module's name to modules.ini. [[AMX Mod X]] supports generic notation, for example: <pre>mysql_amxx</pre> ... will automatically detect the correct module to use.
#To see if the module is working, you can type <tt>amxx modules</tt> in your [[server console]].

==Removing==
#Remove the entry from addons\amxmodx\configs\modules.ini by deleting it or prepending a semi-colon to comment it out.
#Delete any associated files if you don't need them.

Make sure you have mysql_amxx enabled in AMX Mod X's amxmodx/configs/modules.ini file.

Then, open amxmodx/configs/sql.cfg and edit the cvars accordingly:

|}

=Maps=
If you use the mapsmenu plugin, you can either use "maps.ini" or "mapcycle.txt" to manage map rotations.

Delete "maps.ini" to use mapcycle.txt, otherwise, simply add a list of map names to maps.ini like so:
<pre>de_dust
cs_assault
de_aztec</pre>

Et cetera. For each map, you can also add a configuration file that will execute when the map loads. This is useful to set certain settings for 3rd party maps, say, removing the freeze time on fy_iceworld.

To do this, simply create a folder in amxmodx/configs called "maps" and place a .cfg file named after the map with the settings in it, for example, you might have amxmodx/configs/maps/fy_iceworld.cfg:

<pre>
mp_startmoney 16000
mp_freezetime 0
mp_timelimit 20
</pre>

Module Writing (AMX Mod X)

2006-06-29T23:41:46Z

Smokey485:

AMX Mod X Modules are written in C or C++ (the API is C compatible).

For more information, look in: [http://cvs.tcwonline.org/viewvc.cgi/amxmodx/amxmodx/sdk/ /cvsroot/amxmodx/amxmodx/sdk]

Copy these files into a new folder. The amxxmodule.h/cpp files are the Module SDK backend. You only need to edit the moduleconfig.h file to customize your module.

You can read howto.txt for some brief information.

{{Template:Stub}}

[[Category:AMX_Mod_X]]

== The Basics ==
Okay, this is the basics to coding modules: you use C or C++, the API is C compatible, yep, thats right, so you know, uh, well, uh, you see, uhm... Let me think, holdon, okay, uh, wait, no.... Okay, I thought, now...

The basics - You make natives and stocks and stuff like that.

You must have complete mastery of the force and be slightly proficient at C++ to write modules. Then they will come to you in a flash of golden light and you will attempt to compile them. Of course, you will fail. Yes really, you will fail.

Module making is done in C++
