Create a Mod (GoldSrc)

Creating a mod manually

It's surprisingly simple:

1. Create a folder under steamapps\Half-Life\
2. Create a liblist.gam in the folder. You now have a mod!

Creating a mod with XBLAH's Modding Tool

Creating a barebones GoldSrc mod usually requires more than just creating a liblist.gam. Mods based on Half-Life and Half-Life 2 games can be created with the XBLAH's Modding Tool using an intuitive interface, that creates all the required files and directories.

Where to find it
This can be accessed within the tool through Game > New Mod.

How to use it
To create a new mod, select a Base game. Then, select a Mod Template (if you are unsure which to use, choose the default one). Choose a title for the mod. At last, insert the mod folder name. Keep in mind this is not the mod name or title, but rather an unique folder name, with lowercase letters and hyphens. Once everything is set up, click Create and you will have a fully working mod, ready to be expanded.
