Setting up the SDK with Orange Box. Bit of advice.

Post by minus_273c »

If you're setting up the Obsidian SDK on a system that's had the Orange Box installed, ensure you set up and run the Source SDK with the launch option "-engine ep1" (remove quotes) before you even start.

Until you do that, the only gameconfig.txt in the Steam directories is the Orange Box one, and while you can add the OC block to that, you really don't want to (trust me, I've been there).

Once you run the SDK with the "-engine ep1" parameter, a gameconfig.txt gets created under ...Ep1\bin, and that's the one to use.
