- Added keyvalue to hl2_gamerules which allows respawning in singleplayer
- Added the game instructor system (including env_instructor_hint) from later Valve games using a VDC tutorial which adjusts the version from the Alien Swarm SDK to FPS rules and a Source 2013 environment; Also added new KV and icons for further control from mappers (tutorial mentioned by Maestra Fenix)
- Added L4D/TF2 glows + point_glow entity as an all-purpose SDK-based off-shoot of tf_glow
- Fixed weapon pickup sound not playing (reported by Sl0th and later Cvoxulary)
- Fixed env_projectedtextures not updating on save/load
- Added func_fake_worldportal, a spatial point_camera inspired by linked_portal_door based on SDK code alone (WIP, may be changed a lot in future updates)
- Added option for point_camera and func_reflective_glass to use different render targets, therefore allowing multiple cameras and mirrors to be active at the same time
- Added additional RT camera textures to choose from with a default of 3, but also controllable through a -numcameratextures command line param
- Added adjustable convars for main view NearZ and skybox NearZ (suggested by someone recently, also suggested by Klems over a year ago)
- Fixed map-specific localization files, cleaned up map-specific file code
- Added a new block to gameinfo.txt which allows mods to automatically append their own command line parameters
- Fixed math_lightpattern corruption when setting pattern/style while active
- Fixed the "Touch" input crashing when given no entity
- Added a way to add EFlags via keyvalue (suggested by Niker107)
- Fixed ai_script_conditions not working without a NPC actor (reported by MetroHam)
- Fixed point_radiation_source causing huge problems when intensity is 0, even though it was already advised against (reported by beefbacon)
- Added "Mapbase" header to Mapbase-specific code files
- Fixed an issue with updating sky_camera not obtaining area correctly, causing some entities to not draw in the skybox
- Added "CopyFogController" and "CopyFogControllerWithScale" inputs to sky_camera, which copy fog parameters directly from a fog controller
- Added "SetScale" input to sky_camera for live scale changing
- Added convar to control player crouch speed multiplier (suggested by ArtyIF)
- Added a ton of fixes for people running the Debug configuration of the codebase (partial credit to stepa2)
- Added support for pre-defined enums and constants in VScript, starting with various values from the SDK code (damage types, trace masks, etc.)
- Added limited support for Valve's Quaternion class in VScript
- Added new instance helper capabilities, destructible game instances, and other misc. changes to VScript library
- Replaced most of the VScript "accessor" classes with direct references to the original classes, as they were getting complicated fast and adding new VScript-only functions to the original classes might not be as bad as previously thought
- Added base NPC hooks for AI sensing in VScript (allows control over sight and hearing), also exposed CSound for it
- Added various functions and hooks for VPhysics integration in VScript
- Added VScript-based custom suit devices
- Expanded trace info exposed to VScript to allow plane and surface access (suggested by krassell)
- Added ability to insert localization strings through VScript
- Added various misc. VScript functions with various purposes, including reading/writing EFlags, movetypes, collision groups, etc.
- Fixed VBSP not being able to correctly parse parallax corrected cubemaps in maps with instances

* In Hammer, while using the Vertex Tool, pressing CTRL+B will snap selected vertices to the grid.
Virtual Reality:
* Mods that support virtual reality now need to have a line in gameinfo.txt that says “supportsvr 1”. This indicates to gameui and engine that certain UI should be enabled.
* VR-enabled mods will now start up in VR mode when launched from Steam’s VR mode.
Windows:
* Upgraded to Visual Studio 2013. If you need to build projects for VS 2010, add /2010 to your VPC command line.
OSX:

* Adds support for Visual Studio 2012 and 2013
* VR Mode:
. Switches from headtrack.dll to sourcevr.dll
. Improved readability of the UI in VR
. Removed the IPD calibration tool. TF2 will now obey the Oculus
configuration file. Use the Oculus calibration tool in your SDK or

. Added dropdown to enable VR mode in the Video options. Removed the -vr
command line option.
. Added the ability to switch in and out of VR mode without quitting the
game

. Added support for VR mode on Linux
* Many assorted bug fixes and other changes from Team Fortress in
various shared files
* Fixed a variety of server browser issues with mods based on this SDK
* Fixed many warnings on various platforms
* Added source code for fgdlib and raytrace
