how to use hl sdk??

Open it.

If you don't know how to use it, leave it alone. You'll need to be familiar with programming (in C/C++) before it's of any use to you. I'm talking about the HL SDK (2.3) here, not the Source SDK, which is a completely different thing.

Well, actually, the full SDK includes a lot of useful stuff, doesn't it? Example maps and suchlike ? not just code. If you do want to program new stuff, though, you'll need a thorough grounding in C++.

Interesting how people who don't speak English natively often say "how to use"... all sorts of languages say it like that, I guess.

I can coding (just a little bit)

First of all, you need a Design Interface. Best choice is Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 6.0, that Valve used to make the sdk. However its not free. There are free C++ compilers on the Inet, like Borland, but you might have trouble getting started with it.

i got Microsoft Visual Studio 8 is that a good coding program

thx

how do I use the borland compiler i have just downloaded it

I have no idea, i don't use that. Read the documentation.

Microsoft Visual Studio 8 should be able to convert it, so use that.

I've heard this is not for the faint of heart, so if you need to ask, you're prolly not ready for it...

@rowleybob: If he don?t ask anything he?ll never be ready

Disagree. Someone with the deisre to acend/decend to that level, would know about it, by reading about it, not asking generic, nonspecific quesitions like: how do I use this...

I'm not trying to be a jerk here. It's just the way it is.
