Hello everyone and welcome to another Source Mod Showcase! Today, I am playing Missing Information, which is a mod that makes some of the pre-release Half-Life 2 content playable, such as the E3 demos and the Borealis/Hyperborea chapter. However, as this mod hasn't had an official update in a very long time, I am playing this mod using a patch made by @MazdoTheWolf which aims to make the mod work using Source 2013 (the last official update, v1.6, was published before Source 2013 released). This patch is in early access at the moment, so there may be issues that I talk about in the video that will be fixed in the future. Please let me know what you think of the video and I'll see you for another video soon. Thanks for watching!

![Valve Source Code 2013 Tutorial (Episode 15): Shader Authoring Part 3 [Adding The PBR Shader]
Hello everyone and welcome to a new (probably short) series of videos I do involving the source code from Valve for Half-Life 2, and some guides on how to do stuff with this code. In this episode, I demonstrate how to add Thexa4s PBR shader for the Source engine. Unfortunately, this only seems to be an UnlitGeneric version, plus I cannot tell you how to make textures that make use of this shader, so apologies for this! Please let me know what you think and see you for whatever I decide to do next, thanks for watching!

![Valve Source Code 2013 Tutorial (Episode 6 Alt): Shader Authoring Part 1.5 [Using SCell555s Version]
Hello everyone and welcome to a new (probably short) series of videos I do involving the source code from Valve for Half-Life 2, and some guides on how to do stuff with this code. In this episode, I introduce an alternative method for shader authoring and show how to get into a position to be able to compile custom shaders for your mod by using a modified compiler by SCell555. Please let me know what you think and see you for whatever I decide to do next, thanks for watching!
