Valve is... updating the SDK tools... and documenting it?!?

Somebody call the gas company and tell 'em to check their pipeline to Hell.

Probably just means the next map they're making has a lot of oddly shaped brushes and some mapper got pissed off and went to fix the vertex tool.

So.. new Valve map!!

(which we already knew was coming)

Aw, so much for my idea to load a plugin from within the packfile.

I think somebody would have tried that already if it were possible.

If xzzy is right, though, dang, I can't wait to see how epic this map actually is.

Perhaps tried yes. But not reported on the result.

Also, I bet that sourcemod will still accept the load request after this change, so no real loss.
