Spirit of Half-Life (SoHL) is a modified game engine for Half-Life 1 modders that includes many new things not seen in the original Half-Life engine by Valve. This includes reflections, mirrors better lighting, weather like moving clouds, rain, snow, and fog. Physics capabilities like picking up objects and dropping them, or when some thing explodes objects go flying off in the direction.

Basically all SoHL versions are ready for download versions:

1.0
1.1
1.2 (now has source code)
1.4
1.5
1.6 (still need to find source code )
1.7
1.8 (now has source code )

All versions work so don't complain if a version doesn't have something, because either its too old or you have to code it yourself.

Hi! I made a tutorial for some of the SoHL entities. But I dont know how I can link it to this page? So far it is only linked to my mod(which is also based on SoHL) but not to this.

How do I link to a mod that I am not working on?

I'm trying to compile 1.2 but it comes with a slew of errors and I remember this working, am I supposed to use a specific version of Visual C++ or is there a code download with the fixes? I'm not too shabby with C++, or at least not enough to fix all the errors.

1.2 works fine in Visual C++ 6.0. What compiler do you use?

default compilers that come with the program, right now I managed to get C++6, but the cl_dll still wont compile.
