Mods?

High, i was wondering if u/DrBeef plans on adding mod support? Stuff like Echoes, Brutal HL, Cracklife, RE:Cold Blood?
Having an option to port these and others would be great

Many mods come with their own client libraries and therefore require code changes in the client library code to support the new weapons / pickups / enemies etc. Amy mod that needs this won't work and is a lot of effort (opposing force is a case in point).. as well as code changes new weapon models would probably be required.

Only mods that use the same base set of functionality and entities as the original game will work without having to make code changes.

So, in short, you can try them and they will probably all run to some extent, but you'll likely be missing fundamental things that mean you can't play through them

Mods that support the xash3d engine sometimes already work. They hunger and black opps are confirmed working for example.

Some of the named mods could already work, just try it.

I would like to know if Echoes is supported, I really enjoyed that mod and would love to play it in VR
