Hammer Deluxe mod for Half-Life 2

Hammer Deluxe is an open source half-life 2 modification of the episode 2 engine of which has been modified especially for half-life 2 map makers in order to make much more advanced maps, puzzles and randomized events to make levels much easier to achieve.

There are NO custom models, sounds, maps, materials or anything that the mod does NOT require as this is made for people to make better maps as this is a mod to fix what Valve decided not to include into the hammer feature list of which we could easily make use of but they could not.

We have not touched the Valve Hammer Editor as the source code for that is not released, but we have highly improved the entity coding and .fgd information such as making it so mappers can modify the health, model, skin, ammo... etc of npc's in order to make a boss, import in custom models / textures and more into their map so they don't have to create entirely new mods just to test out or show off their creations.

The Source code for this Modification is available to everyone for learning purpose's only. If for any reason the content of Hammer Deluxe is needed for any Half-Life 2 Modification, please supply credits to Hammer Deluxe as you would have read the ToS.
