Zh-tw/SDK Installation
Source SDK是免費提供給所有Steam用戶的 這是被用於開發模組或Source 2006、Source 2007和Source 2009引擎分支的內容。
近期的每個Valve遊戲都有自己的SDK或創作工具（Authoring Tools）：
（"創作工具（Authoring Too）"代表的是並不提供源代碼。）
目前各個遊戲的創作工具都皆為測試版
我們在改變的過程如何分佈創作工具給這些遊戲：
- 絕地要塞2
- 絕對武力：次世代
- 勝利之日：次世代
- 戰慄時空：死亡競賽
以前這些工具被分佈在同一個套件中（"Source SDK"應用程式），它位於遊戲文件完全不同的地方。我們正走向一個更像L4D和CS:GO的模式。遊戲目前默認都附帶了SDK工具，所以你要這些工具只需運行遊戲並更新至最新版本。請注意該工具僅適用於Windows。
”現在開啟bin文件。（例如: [steam]/steamapps/common/Team Fortress 2/bin）當工具在適當的環境中安裝並啟動，你應該會看到幾個新的批處理文件在bin中：
- hammer.bat
- faceposer.bat
- hlmv.bat
- stdudiomdl.bat
- vtex.bat
SDK啟動器已不再被使用，所以請使用這些批處理文件來啟動工具。
如果你有一些啟動的問題，請確保你沒有一個名為VProject設置的環境變數。 如果你有，這些工具會使用而非檢測正確的環境變數。
安裝Source代碼和啟動
如果你需要下載Source代碼請遵照以下指示。如果你需要的是創作工具（Authoring Tools），那它們可能並不適用。
See: Source SDK 2013 for the latest instructions.
The old instructions are below:
Click here to install the Source SDK. For future reference, or if that doesn't work:
- Open the Steam window.
- Go to the Library.
- Change the list to Tools.
- Find and double-click on the Source SDK item.
- Read over the dialog box and click Download and Install / Next to continue
- The Source SDK will then be downloaded to your computer via Steam.
Running
Once Steam has finished downloading you can launch the SDK from the Tools tab. You can also create a desktop shortcut by right-clicking on the SDK in the Tools tab and clicking Create desktop shortcut from the context menu that appears.
When you first run the SDK it will spend a long time extracting its downloaded archive to loose files on your disk. This will not happen again until the SDK is next updated.
After that, you will be able to select a game and run any of the tools provided by the launcher. However, you will run into problems unless the game you want to work with is fully up to date. You can make sure it is by launching the game and quitting once you get to the main menu.
Where do I go from here?
If you want to learn about how to create content for the Source Engine in general, the main page of the Source SDK documentation is a good place to start.
