This page is for posting feature requests for the Source SDK. Please don't report bugs here, use Source SDK Bugs instead.

Note:For Hammer-specific feature requests, please see the Hammer Feature Requests page.

Feature Requests

• Support for env_tonemap_controller & HDR in HL2, HL2DM, & SDK code.
• It would be nice to be able to select the parts of the SDK we wanted, instead of having to download and extract the whole thing before we can use it. If the launcher were allowed to run without any content downloaded and gave a selection screen when it first ran we could save the time, bandwidth and hard drive space we are currently wasting on things we aren't interested in. Something like this:

 Source code
   Half-Life 2
   Half-Life 2: Deathmatch
 Map tools & samples
   Counter-Strike
   Day of Defeat: Source
   Half-Life 2
   Half-Life 2: Deathmatch
 Modeling tools & samples
   Counter-Strike
   ...

And so on like that. Isn't this one of the things Steam was made for? ;-)

• Updated CSS character samples: so that modelers can make models that will pass server consistency(without installing old animation files as fix).
• Built in decompilers would be greater than a delicious and moist cake, and that's no lie. Third party decompiler are nice, but they usually aren't very user-friendly, and there are very few to choose from.
