Everything in this package is a new game. It's all the Dota assets and code ported over to Source 2. That's why Hammer is different. That's why the console is different.

Guys. Valve just soft launched the entire Source 2 engine.

EDIT: Because people are asking for proof.

Everything that would share a name with Source is named '...2'. That's 'engine2.dll', 'vconsole2.exe', 'vphysics2.dll'.

When you go to open a map in Hammer, it asks for .vmap files. One of the other options is '.vmf (Source 1.0)' files. Screenshot (thanks /u/darkmio)

The fucking console is redone.

There is a new Key-Value like format (that i'm gonna call KV2). It is type safe. It looks like this: http://pastebin.com/RVQtkv1j. EDIT: Looks like my name isn't going to stick. The engine calls them 'Schema Files', written by CSchemaTextWriter. (Voided found this)

EDIT2 (Probably the strongest evidence): That script also allows for different dlls to load and render different assets (vmaps are rendered by worldrenderer.dll, etc). This is quite a bit different from Source 1, as they had a large number of things in the engine libraries. This bit alone would indicate a significant amount of engine work has been done to split these bits out of the engine and into their own libraries.

EDIT: hey RPS i changed this paragraph, so you guys should probably use the updated paragraph as it's more correct.

EDIT3: lol, source2 apparently support fax machines. (VoiDeD found this) (source: http://privatepaste.com/513891c5dc )

EDIT4: from /u/nellody: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/...w_outliner.png notice the 'source2' in the path.

EDIT: the general consensus around the source reverse engineering community is that this is really source 2.

EDIT:

I'm jiggling like a schoolgirl :D

Half-Life 3 confirmed?!

Dota 2 on Xbox evidence found in the Source 2 engine files. LOTS of evidence its coming. Could be huge. Interestingly there is zero Playstation code.

Disclaimer: some of them are leftovers from S1 but majority of the references in the engine2.dll are new.

Valve would be stupid not to make Dota 2 for PS4 too. That touch pad could even be used for it.

I for sure agree, but it is weird how there is lots of Xbox code and no Playstation coding, possibly going to be a timed exclusive?

All I hope is that an eventual Portal 3 comes out of this.

Maybe. That said, wasn't LoL planned for Xbox? Is it still on the way?

That was floating around for a while, I wonder if the person who originaly "leaked" that heard a huge MOBA was going to be timed exclusive and assumed it was LoL but it was actually Dota 2 the whole time.

What? No Alien Swarm 2? :P
