Serious Immersion: Half-Life 2 is the very first mod in the Serious Immersion series that tries to recreate the atmosphere of Half-Life 2 game by adding weapons, enemies, interface and a lot of other features ported directly from the original game.

Based on Serious Engine 1 Mod SDK and utilizes a custom Entity Class Compiler (Sources/Extras/Ecc.exe).

Building instructions are available here: https://github.com/DreamyCecil/SE1-ModSDK/wiki/Building

1. Run Sources/ode_double_opcode.bat script.
2. Open Sources/Extras/ode/build/vs2010/ode.sln Visual Studio solution and compile the project using ReleaseDLL build configuration (under Win32 platform for TSE 1.07).

After that, when building the mod, it will automatically link the generated ode.lib file and copy ode.dll into the Bin/ directory.

Once the project is compiled, there should be three libraries in the Bin folder: EntitiesMP.dll, GameGUIMP.dll and GameMP.dll.

There are two ways to start the mod:

1. Create a .des file in your Mods directory under the same name as this repository, open it in any text editor and type your mod name in it. Then you'll be able to launch your mod from the game's Mods list.
2. Run any of the mod launchers from the Bin folder to open the mod (e.g. SeriousSam.exe) or the editor (e.g. SeriousEditor.exe).

When running a selected project from Visual Studio, make sure that the mod in project properties Debugging -> Command Arguments is set to your mod name instead of HL2IM (example: +game HL2IM_Mod).
