Episode One Mod / mounting EP1 content

[Au-heppa]

Okay, I want to use the pine tree models from EP1. The gameinfo.txt of my mod says

SteamAppId 380

and

SearchPaths
{
Game |gameinfo_path|.
Game episodic
Game hl2
}

and in Hammer I can see all the models, and if I run the map with EP1 I can see the models, but still when I run it with my mod all I see is error models. What's the problem? do I have to compile my code differently as well?

If so, how do you determine in the source code that it's episodic, and not hl2. I have sometimes seen an if function that says something "if (IsEpisodic.GetBool())" or "#ifdef EPISODIC" or something like that. What's the correct file to determine these things, what's the "main" .cpp file where I should add the "#define EPISODIC" line or the one that sets the IsEpisodic to true?

Use that to mount the content, put SteamAppId 215 in your gameinfo.txt.

If you use 215, you won't get Episode One.

An easy way of finding out if your code is at fault is to move it out of the /bin folder. That way when you next launch your mod Source will fall back to the game code found in your AppId: if it works, you know that your binaries are causing the problems.

Err... Yes he will... I get Episode one content on 215 (Do the GCF Mounting as i posted and it will)...
