Svengine

This article or section needs to be cleaned up to conform to a higher standard of quality because:

Make a comparison table of vanilla GoldSrc and Svengine (like on the GoldSrc page) to improve quality and make it a little standalone.)

For help, see the VDC Editing Help and Wikipedia cleanup process. Also, remember to check for any notes left by the tagger at this article's talk page.

Svengine is a third-party, modified version of GoldSrc using licensed code, introduced around version 5.0 of Sven Co-op. It has enhancements such as increased engine limits (allowing for larger and more complex levels), Hor+ FOV support, and improved audio via FMOD.

Features

Feature list from the Sven Co-op official website

• Engine
  • New game and server launchers for improved functionality.
  • Increased limits for various engine core parameters, such as base decals, beams, dynamic lights, edicts, frame rate, heap memory size, models, sounds, and more.
  • Increased limits for map-related parameters, such as brushes, leafs, models, nodes, planes, textures, world size, and more.
  • Enhanced networking changes, including IPv6 support, increased network rate, datagram length, entities per packet, user message size, and more.
  • Various engine settings and log improvements.

• Tools
