Hey guis i wanned to make a mod like blue-shift.To make sure that it will
not require half-life to be installed.For this i downloaded opfor demo and
i would like to place my gearbox dir there.See im making a game using opfor 1.0 engine.I did nothing im just waiting for an answer.Now i want to know that will i do something bad.You know will gearbox and valve will be mad when i upload the mod.Please tell me!

Why do you want to make the mod standalone? Distributing it would be kinda illegal, and you'll most likely be forced to pay a fine & stop distributing if Valve / gearbox bother their arse.

OpforDemo does not have all the things you need to make your mod "Standalone" Blueshift does.

Hey, did you read the end-user-agreement Kol? It pretty much states that we can sell our modifactions of Half-Life in one of the paragraphs.. although everything would have to be custom... etc Wad files, models. Because if you think about it we'd use Hammer to create and with knew models and wad files.. they cannot sue, and we can copyright!
Yiippppeeeee

Well, You still use Valve's engine..

Example: Gunman

It was a "standalone" mod that wanted to distribute without the need for HL, and go retail, so they paid Valve for the engine and got on with it.

Simple.

yeah, not that it really turned out that great.

well if i have to pay i guess i wont make a standalone mod thanks
