HL/CS/TFC support in 1.6

[TTimo]

Some quick notes about what it would take to bring back support for HL/CS/TFC in GtkRadiant 1.6 series:

The games can be installed from Steam (Windows and Linux). It all goes to steamapps/common/Half-Life/ on Linux (mod folders etc.)

GtkR 1.5 had support for HL and CS. This is the gamepack: http://svn.icculus.org/gtkradiant-gamepacks/HalfLifePack/trunk/

Files need to be moved around and updated to match the 1.6 setup, see for instance http://svn.icculus.org/gtkradiant-gamepacks/QLPack/trunk/?sortdir=down or http://svn.icculus.org/gtkradiant-gamepacks/UrTPack/trunk/?sortdir=down

Best to start with resurrecting HL, then CS, then look at adding TFC.

NOTE: I do not plan to undertake this work. But the question of support for HL/CS/TFC comes up often enough that it's worth having a plan written down. Please read our mission statement on http://icculus.org/gtkradiant/, consider taking on the responsibility of bringing up and maintaining support for HL/CS/TFC in GtkR, or setting up a donation at https://gratipay.com/gtkradiant/
