澳大利亞前總理保羅·基廷週三在《悉尼先驅晨報》發表的一篇評論文章中寫道，四邊安全對話或“四邊”只有一個目標，那就是遏制中國。

==What is the map pack?==

他在文章中寫道：“不知何故，20% 的人類從赤貧狀態上升到接近現代國家的狀態，這是不合法的——但更重要的是，僅僅因為它的存在，是對美國的侮辱。”

基廷說：“這並不是說中國對美國構成威脅——這是中國從未表達過或交付過的——相反，它的存在僅僅代表了對美國優勢地位的挑戰。”

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.

“一個國家，像美國一樣大，怎麼敢代表自己。但不僅僅是代表自己，擁有可能擴大兩倍的資金。在美國的劇本中找不到這樣的可能性。但這就是Quad 就是一切。而且，天真地，我們就在其中。”

+
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.
−
在文章中，基廷還提到澳大利亞外交部長瑪麗斯佩恩上週一沖上國家舞台攻擊他，因為他冒昧地說澳大利亞政府的 AUKUS 協議將這些國家重新釘在了英語圈上，同時又強硬地背棄了他們的地理環境。亞洲地區。

“佩恩和總理對他們在華盛頓受到的盛大招待感到眼花繚亂——如果美國的任何戰略客戶將武裝部隊的控制權移交給美國，他們都會受到這種招待，”他說，並補充說“但是在我們的案例中，將對我們外交政策的有效控制變成交易”。
+
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engine was evolving, many features were being modified or discarded at a very quick rate, leaving many old levels very outdated in the process.

根據基廷的說法，美國潛艇的決定不僅僅是關於海底戰，而是將澳大利亞支付的八艘潛艇捐贈給美國指揮部，作為其太平洋艦隊的一個組成部分。

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 The nature of this work mostly revolves around fixing outdated entities and brush work so that the game can correctly interpret the level itself.

“試著想想另一個國家會做任何如此順從的事情，”他寫道。

此外，通過這樣做，該國粗暴地冒犯了歐洲唯一的國際大國法國——一個擁有先進軍事、核潛艇和核武器的歐洲國家，他說。

基廷在文章的結尾寫道：“根據佩恩的說法，我沒有跟上時代，我太久不合時宜了，是過去時代的遺物。好吧，我可能是，但有一件事我不是——澳大利亞的失敗主義者誰一出現緊張跡象，就會把國家賣給另一個大國。”

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.
