Runing lua on half life 2 - Developers

is it possible? i heard it was but never found a site that showed it im just wondering if it is possible to run lua on half life 2

I'd assume you'd need to implement it, because hl2 doesn't come stock with it.

[QUOTE=foszor;18929264]Yea.

He's saying that Garry's mod is Lua for HL2.

Launch Garry's Mod, start any HL2 map... you've got Lua in HL2.

[QUOTE=foszor;18931183]Launch Garry's Mod, start any HL2 map... you've got Lua in HL2.[/QUOTE] well yea i understand that but the hole point is because im trying to make a mod that runs on lua

i was under the impression it was more like Lua runnning on the mod Anyway it's super easy to run lua on hl2

[QUOTE=shaftm;18931471]i was under the impression it was more like Lua runnning on the mod Anyway it's super easy to run lua on hl2[/QUOTE] really how is it done?

[QUOTE=ATGOD;18931717]really how is it done?[/QUOTE] make gmod

Asking this question is like asking for the schematics for an airplane so you can build it while at the same time never having built anything more complicated than a wooden box

Or trying to run Lua in HL2 without Gmod.

[QUOTE=Gbps;18932686]Or trying to run Lua in HL2 without Gmod.[/QUOTE] but saying this to him is having no effect so I had to use something else

But it's funnier

[QUOTE=Gbps;18932686]Or trying to run Lua in HL2 without Gmod.[/QUOTE] have tryed it didnt seem to work im not sure what files in Gmod have what allows it to run lua maybe u can give me a example of what u mean by running it without gmod

Dude ATGOD I hope you're trolling T_T I'm almost positive Garrysmod is just HL2 with some Lua libraries, letting the C++ in HL2 access the Lua code.. Oh god I've probably made myself look like an idiot lol

Oh god I've probably made myself look like an idiot lol[/QUOTE] Other way around. Letting the Lua access the C++ code. Also includes things like Derma and gamemode operations. It's much more complicated than a simple Lua port.

[QUOTE=Gbps;18932829]Other way around. Letting the Lua access the C++ code. Also includes things like Derma and gamemode operations. It's much more complicated than a simple Lua port.[/QUOTE] now thats understandable would it be possible to copy gmod and just change a few things around?

No. Three real options. Play Garrysmod on the HL2 levels Compile a sourcemod that is bound to Lua Play a source mod that already has a Lua bind ( such as SMOD from what I hear ) The first one is what we are saying to do. The second one requires programming experience or somebody to do it for you. The third one would also work, but is incompatible with Garrysmod as far as I am aware. If your goal is to play HL2 with the SWEPs, SNPCs, SENTs, and everything else Garrysmod has to offer, just play the HL2 levels in game and save yourself a lot of frustration.

I have to ask why you specifically want a HL2 mod that has a Lua environment without using GMod. Why not just use GMod?

[QUOTE=Kogitsune;18933005]Play a source mod that already has a Lua bind ( such as SMOD from what I hear )[/QUOTE] Then your hearing something slightly wrong then. Smod does use lua but only for a addon you can get called MapAdd generator
