What do you mean? If you want to start HL2 you need resources of HL2.

Add installation path via --prefix=/path/to/half-life-2-root-folder in waf configure And use ./waf install to build and install built binaries

can i ask why u need the HL2 root folder? cannot you build a standalone game from this?

No. Game resources are available only in Steam Source Engine code doesn't contain any resources

Hi, installed successfully, but when I start hl2.exe the game starts, but basically nothing changes. Do I need to move the launcher (.exe file in "launcher_main" or "launcher" folder after build) to the HL2 root folder or Just leave anything as it is (and it will reflect changes i made in the code)?

P.S: im new to the source scene, sorry if im annoying :)

This may help you

Hi, installed successfully, but when I start hl2_launcher.exe I get video_quicktime.dll ThreadSleep error. One of this issues nillerusr commented "another invalid issue, delete steam binaries before installing ones compiled from this repo" I don't know what binaries to delete. I'm new btw.

Delete bin/ and re-run . /waf.bat instal might help. 😏
