Director's Cut is a community-driven filmmaking mod for the Source engine.
Development is dead[1] and it was last in a pre-alpha[2] stage.
Director's Cut is based on Source 2013's engine branch. Therefore, much of the documentation on this wiki pertaining to Source 2013 may also apply to Director's Cut.
History
The project began development in May 2022 after discussion in the 
Source Filmmaker community regarding the desire for an open-source filmmaker.
An attempt was made to license 
Source for the project alongside efforts towards a 
Steam release, however, the request to license the engine was declined, and due to its similarity to Source Filmmaker, the software was ultimately not permitted to release on Steam.[3]
From June 2023 to September 2023, development was on hiatus until it had been reset in October 2023 after switching its Source base from 
Alien Swarm Deferred to 
Mapbase.
On October 23 2023, the Source branch was switched from 
to 
, and Mapbase support was dropped.
As of April 17 2024, Director's Cut is in pre-alpha and approximately 13% complete.[2]
On June 18 2024, development was cancelled.[1]
Implementation
Because the Source SDK does not provide an 
API for engine tools to be created, Director's Cut relies on game code to function.
Due to this limitation, some features are unavailable, such as use of the DMX CDmElement API.
Despite not being a native engine tool, Director's Cut can function as an add-on for developers.
The source code for Director's Cut can easily be merged into existing mods, and instructions are available on GitHub.[4]
