Linux Client
foul_owl:
Welp, the Linux version of the SDK is out!! ;D
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/source-sdk-2013
Oh hell yes.
Enzo.Matrix:
Ya, but one does not simply copy-paste to 2013.
killermonkey:
I did a preliminary comparison of the 2013 sdk and the current one we are running on....
significant changes, to almost every aspect of the code base.
I am going to write a couple python scripts to help me merge our code into place since we had to modify the base SDK in _several_ places to make things work properly.
Upside:
(1) Valve implemented a voting routine!
(2) Looks like they addressed long standing issues with the VGUI
(3) They are using GitHub so changes can be rolled out faster
Downside:
(1) Now I have to learn a new build strategy on Linux
(2) Massive merge work to get onto the 2013 base
(3) Most likely will have to rewrite/reconnect many GES classes on the new base

How do you think this compares with the code jump from the Episode 1 engine to the Orange Box engine?
killermonkey:
Much more work due to our more advanced code base. Remember I started coding the current baseline from scratch when orange box came out.
