Choreography (FacePoser)
Make Source's characters come to life with its uniquely powerful choreography technologies.
AI
AI stands for Artificial Intelligence (Wikipedia) and controls the behaviour of all but the simplest of NPC actions. Source's AI is not to be confused with Half-Life 2's restrained implementation of it: it is very powerful and very clever. This category will provide an overview of how to implement and manage AI in your Source game or map.
Material System
Source's material proxy exponentially increases flexibility and allows for multiple materials from just one texture.
Sound System
Documentation on Source's software sound system.
Modeling
Everything you need to know about modelling for Source.
