Java as a programming language for anything Half Life (2) related? Created 3 years ago2021-04-15 18:39:22 UTC by Coopsec

I know C and C++ is probably much smarter when it comes to modding something for the Half Life universe.
But my problem is that I am kind of stuck with Java for now, since I use it regularly in class.

I really want to develop small mods for Half Life 1 & 2, but I'm not sure if I can use Java to help me.
Can I?
(And if not, which languages would help me?)

-Thanks a bunch!

Aside from some edge cases such as developing tools for other modders to use, the only programming language that can be used for HL/2 modding is C++. Unfortunately there's no way to avoid it.

Oh, that's a bummer. I guess modding will have to wait until I finish class.
