Quiver Engine

The Quiver Engine is a modified version of the 2007 leak of Valve’s Source Engine. Among the improvements are upgraded shaders, better POSIX support (WIP), modernized API, and better GUI via Ultralight (WIP).

Building

It is not yet possible to build on OSX or Linux systems.

On windows, you will need Visual Studio with VC++ and Perl installed. Then follow these steps to build Quiver:

  • Open Perl Command Line and enter cpan String::CRC32
  • Run createcoreprojects.bat and build the solution in Release.
  • Run src/materialsystem/stdshaders/buildallshaders.bat.
  • Run src/createallprojects.bat or src/createbinprojects.bat and build the solution in Release.
  • Edit game/make_dir_junction.bat with your HL2 install directory if needed and Run

Then run the engine with run_mod_hl2.bat, run_mod_episodic.bat, or run_hl2r.bat.
