About Goldsrc
Goldsrc was developed by Valve Corporation in 1998. It was based on a heavily modified version of the Quake engine, originally created by id Software. Valve used Goldsrc to create their debut game, Half-Life, which aimed to deliver a more immersive and narrative-driven first-person shooter experience.
Goldsrc's strengths included its robust modding support, efficient use of system resources, and strong multiplayer capabilities. Its weaknesses were outdated graphics and limited scalability for modern hardware. Competitors included id Tech engines, Unreal Engine, and LithTech.
