Half life is Quake 1 engine

Erg, I hate repeating myself, but its a sad fact that the half life game is made using the quake1 engine (very heavily modified) and not the quake 2 engine.

Many people get this wrong simply because Half life uses opengl a lot more than quake1 did. But its a fact. For proof look up the ID technology's licencing information page.

*sigh*
