Source is visible as assembler. Well.. I dont know too much about ASM, but sub -'A' is like calculating the base of a character. Hee!... looks like reading the Kernel32 source is easy!. (I use hiew) http://www.softnews.ro/public/cat/5/4/5-4-2.shtml We can point hiew to Steam.dll or whatever other .dll and read the "source" and learn from there. I am suspicious that leaks its becoming another way to promote games. And I still doubt the HL2 source code is out. But If is out, will be a good read. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
