Half-Life SDK

The Half-Life SDK is the set of tools needed to create content for GoldSrc. On 30th August 2013, the Half-Life SDK was finally added to Steam in the 'Tools' section. You can now create and compile Half-Life and other GoldSrc mods for Windows, macOS and Linux as a result of the SteamPipe updates.

Todo: Add links to applicable TWHL Wiki pages on various GoldSrc pages, such as entity pages, as that wiki is more up-to-date and verbose for GoldSrc content.
