the "Goldsource" engine, and the name stuck. When it came down to show Half-Life 2 for the first time at E3, it was part of our internal communication to refer to the "Source" engine vs. At least initially, the Goldsrc branch of code referred to the codebase that was currently released, and Src referred to the next set of more risky technology that we were working on. Over the next few years, we used these terms internally as "Goldsource" and "Source". At that point we forked off the code in VSS to be both /$Goldsrc and /$Src. When we were getting very close to releasing Half-Life (less than a week or so), we found there were already some projects that we needed to start working on, but we couldn't risk checking in code to the shipping version of the game. Valve employee Erik Johnson explained the engine's nomenclature on the Valve Developer Community:
Carmack commented on his blog in 2004 that "there are still bits of early Quake code in Half-Life 2". Source distantly originates from the GoldSrc engine, itself a heavily modified version of John Carmack's Quake engine with some code from the Quake II engine. Updates to Source were released in incremental versions, with the engine being succeeded by Source 2 by the late 2010s. It debuted as the successor to GoldSrc in 2004 with the releases of Half-Life: Source, Counter-Strike: Source, and Half-Life 2. Oh, and here are the PC requirements for the Cinematic mod: Awakening.Source is a 3D game engine developed by Valve. NervenHölle-Team has also released some screenshots for this mod that can be viewed below. Those interested can download the demo from here. It’s also worth noting that the Cinematic mod: Awakening will add some new levels to the game as well. Do note that this mod does not represent the quality of the final version as there are lots of placeholders and barebones levels, and that it will be updated and improved over time. What’s really interesting here, however, is that NervenHölle-Team has released a demo for its mod that is available right now to everyone. Cinematic mod: Awakening uses the Cinematic Mod 2013 platform with additional work being done by third-party/community members, and all work is done with the permission of FakeFactory’s author. Well, NervenHölle-Team is currently working on an expanded version of it that aims to overhaul Half-Life 2’s universe. Remember the FakeFactory Cinematic mod for Half-Life 2.
