Question How do I make a GCF file for my game?

Because I'm pretty sure it has to do with programming, I want to make a gcf file for my mod, and put files inside of that, and the mod will use it. How do I do this?

C'mon dude, wait a little longer than 10 minutes.

You don't need to make a GCF file. You should just put the content in the correct folders in your mod directory.

You can't make GCFs.

If you're modding with the Portal 2 or L4D2 versions of Source, you can compress your files into .vpk format...

But iirc there's no way of making a .gcf file.
