Is it possible to put Gmod addons into Half Life 2?

[Lord Cohliani]

In particular, i wanted to be able to use the SharpEye UI in Half Life 2. How do i go about doing this?

I understand that this is only 1/2 related to Gmod, but I figured you guys could help.

Impossible. Your best bet is to play through the HL2 maps in garrysmod.

Half-Life 2 does not support Lua. However, you could script your own mod that can support Lua files. Otherwise, it's a matter of making it into a DLL or some kind of module.

So if i wanted to make a single player mod/game type, and use the garry's mod add-ons to "modify" the gameplay experience hwo could i do this. i.e. I want it so when they load my mod it displays custom HUD from a garry's mod add-on as well as have the custom blood add-on and NPC add-ons that you can download.

could i do this by making a garry's mod gametype and if so how would i specify those to be in the gametype...
or will i have to make a proper mod? I'm not very handy with coding so I was hoping i could just use the add-ons to modify the gameplay.

thanks.

You'll need a proper mod, unless you know how to override the .gcf file. The poster 2 posts above mine might work, but I've never heard of code interpreters that can transfer a .dll in one language to a .dll in another.

Gmod addons in HL2? Impossible.

GMod addons in HL2 using a proper mod? Ask Garry, he made the interpreter.

GMod addons in HL2 maps using GMod? Why are you not doing this.

If the reason you're not already just playing the maps in GMod is that you want to use Cinematic Mod, contact FakeFactory. Odds are he won't add Sharpeye, but it's worth a try.

To play Half-Life 2 with mods,

first you go to the library,

find the game called Garry's Mod,

launch it, play it. There you go.

I don't think you guys are getting what I want to do. I have to make the map in hammer as a HL2 map since there's no option for a gmod map. I want to be able to place something like this is my level/map
[url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=114229[/url]
and when someone downloads my map I want their HUD and Cross Hairs to be set to something like this

I'm going to disable the standard gmod sandbox hud and just use the add-ons to make a new experience.
