==What is the map pack?==


毛泽东出生于湖南湘潭韶山冲，幼年进入私塾读书，也务过农。1918年毕业于湖南省立第一师范学校。1921年参与建立中国共产党，后参与第一次国共合作。1927年-1949年间，参与第一次国共内战、第二次国共合作、抗日战争、第二次国共内战，并扮演重要角色。1945年中国共产党第七次全国代表大会后出任中央委员会主席和中央军事委员会主席，成为党的最高领导人。1949年出任中华人民共和国中央人民政府主席，1954年至1959年转为担任中华人民共和国主席。曾先后兼任人民革命军事委员会主席、国防委员会主席、中国人民政治协商会议全国委员会主席暨名誉主席等职。


毛泽东是中国共产党创始人之一，中国人民解放军和中华人民共和国的主要缔造者和领导人，其终身担任中国共产党中央委员会主席、中国共产党中央军事委员会主席，被尊称为毛泽东主席、毛主席。在经济社会等方面，毛泽东于1949年起逐渐推行计划经济[3]，1950年起推进了扫盲运动，1953年起推动社会主义改造和工业化，1954年主导制定了第一部《中华人民共和国宪法》，1958年提出开展“两弹一星”工程；毛泽东时代的中国人口总数由5亿多增长到9亿多，人口生育率高于世界平均水平、人口死亡率呈波动式下降[4][5]，期间中国政府并未严格实行计划生育、曾一度鼓励生育[6][7]。与此同时，在政治文化等方面，1949年至1976年间，毛泽东主导或发动了土地改革运动、镇压反革命运动、三反五反运动、肃反运动、反右运动、大跃进、人民公社、四清运动、文化大革命等一系列政治和社会运动，中国国民经济及科教学术受到巨大冲击[8][9][10][11][12]，中华传统文化及道德沦亡[13][14][15][16][17]，民主、法制及宪政遭到严重破坏[12][18][19][20][21]，据各方估计造成了数千万中国人的非正常死亡[22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]，亦有数千万中国人受到批斗和迫害[30][31][32][33][34]。
The Worldcraft (WC) Mappack contains 1350 VMF (Valve Map Format, a file format that represents editable Hammer levels) files. These files represent levels and areas from almost every location Valve prototyped and playtested during the six-year Half-Life 2 development cycle.


1976年9月9日，毛泽东在北京病逝，终年83岁，遗体安放在毛主席纪念堂至今。世界各地对毛泽东的評價历来褒貶不一、充满争议，而毛泽东时代的朝鲜战争、中苏交恶、越南战争、中美破冰、红色高棉夺权等也是冷战期间世界各国博弈的显现。中国共产党、中华人民共和国官方将毛泽东定位为党和国家的缔造者以及党和国家第一代领导集体的核心，毛泽东思想被列为中国共产党的主要指导思想之一。支持者认为毛泽东在中国工业化、反对帝国主义和霸权主义的运动中作出了重要贡献，降低了中国人口的文盲率，并促进了中国妇女地位的提升[35][36][37][38]；反对者则批评毛泽东的独裁、极权和推行个人崇拜，谴责毛泽东时代的诸多运动造成了大量人员和财产损失、文物古迹的损毁以及给中国社会带来的浩劫和精神创伤
 
By analyzing the last-modified date of these VMFs, we can observe that the Mappack contains levels that were made from December 14, 2000 to September 25, 2003. These levels not only provide a fairly accurate timeline of locations and gameplay concepts that Valve continuously prototyped and discarded, but also provide deep insight on how the Source engine itself evolved during its development.
 
 
In terms of the general state of these maps, the Mappack provides levels that range from being almost complete and fully-functional, to being in a very unfinished state. Many of the maps are also affected by engine compatibility issues - as the Source engine was evolving, many features were being modified or discarded at a very quick rate, leaving many old levels very outdated in the process.
 
 
This means that if anyone wishes to get the levels to run in an available Half-Life game, some work is required. The nature of this work mostly revolves around fixing outdated entities and brush work so that the game can correctly interpret the level itself.

Main Page for WC map pack

What is the map pack?

The Worldcraft (WC) Mappack contains 1350 VMF (Valve Map Format, a file format that represents editable Hammer levels) files. These files represent levels and areas from almost every location Valve prototyped and playtested during the six-year Half-Life 2 development cycle.


By analyzing the last-modified date of these VMFs, we can observe that the Mappack contains levels that were made from December 14, 2000 to September 25, 2003. These levels not only provide a fairly accurate timeline of locations and gameplay concepts that Valve continuously prototyped and discarded, but also provide deep insight on how the Source engine itself evolved during its development.


In terms of the general state of these maps, the Mappack provides levels that range from being almost complete and fully-functional, to being in a very unfinished state. Many of the maps are also affected by engine compatibility issues - as the Source engine was evolving, many features were being modified or discarded at a very quick rate, leaving many old levels very outdated in the process.


This means that if anyone wishes to get the levels to run in an available Half-Life game, some work is required. The nature of this work mostly revolves around fixing outdated entities and brush work so that the game can correctly interpret the level itself.
