Support of lightmapped water from ericw-tools.
It's so ugly but people like it for some reason.

@Theuaredead any plans to update the published HLAZ sources? If there were any changes in them...

In an absolutely impractical way (by prerendering each symbol with FreeType2, blurring it in software) I can draw custom strings in menu now

Could've tried to do something more original with the title, but tried to decompile just for history.

Modders can take the code as a base and do something more beautiful with it, like they did with animated software water already...

Finished decompiling animated logo from HL25, might not be very accurate, but I tried :hl1:

struct mdisplaylist_s {
        unsigned int               gl_displaylist;       /*     0     4 */
        int                        rendermode;           /*     4     4 */
        float                      scrolloffset;         /*     8     4 */
        int                        renderDetailTexture;  /*    12     4 */

        /* size: 16, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */
        /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
};

New field in msurface_t in HL25.

Compatibility with mods? Never heard of it!

Still need to make wrappers for IO functions for archive types in my filesystem_stdio implementation to properly support compressed ZIPs

Hmm... maybe do that right now?

Sorry, I'm really getting claustrophobic with the new HUD.

Reverse-engineered HL25's hardcoded animated WON title for fun.

Valve added new cvar `sv_allow_autoaim` in the engine that like `sv_aim` controls auto-aiming, and made hl.dll crash without it.

But... why?

Valve used Vluzacn's ZHLT compilers to make a new multiplayer map for the anniversary update.

... And the free version of J.A.C.K.

imagine opening XashXT for the first time and the first thing you hear is slowed down russian pop music loop from the 90s
