Compile HL2 leak from source code?

[noobenverfer]

Hey all,

Recently I've been trying to find a way to compile the Half-Life 2 leak from source. I've found an old thread about it but so far not much help: LINK
The thread has a link to the source code in it which is long dead, but miraculously the Wayback Machine has it archived and I downloaded the source code from there. There's no .sln file like the thread says, only these batch scripts. Has anyone here compiled the Half-Life 2 leak from scratch before? I know it might be a big task but I'd like to give this a try.




Please help if you can! Thanks all
