De/Compiling under VS2005

Einleitung

The following is a general guide to getting HL2 compiling under VS 2005. Its important to note that the SDK code for HL2 supports VS2005, but only in the the _2005.sln files. Compiling a _2003.sln under 2005 and visa versa will only generate problems and errors. Older versions of the source code did not support 2005, to get them working with 2005 go here.
