Someone said to me that the Havok engine *isn't* actually in the leaked source... only the links into it.... I have yet to confirm this and will tell you when / if I do.

And finally this is a good source for general information from Valve as well as the mod coding scene. Suddenly you know what the mod coders are doing right now. New bod codes, solving problems with steam (as in case of Natural Selection). I just like to be better informed and up to date than I would be with the info that is posted on mods web sites. I am a hobby coder though - mainly tools - so it is not that I wouldn't understand a word :) > > Am Fri, 3 Oct 2003 19:57:35 -0700 hat Kevin Gerry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> geschrieben: > > > Stupid question... > > > > How many non-coders are on this list anyway?
