Thanks for mentioning FWGS here :3 Though I would like to make a remark here, Xash3D isn't really a modified GoldSrc engine. It shares game logic with it (thanks to Valve publishing the SDK for mods), it has some controversy around it about the original author, Uncle Mike, used the leaked bits from Source. But mostly it's essentially a mix of Quake, Quake 2 and DarkPlaces. Probably even more, since the Uncle Mike started development back in mid-00s and mostly don't remember where or when he took some code or an inspiration. Only at end of 00s - beginning of 10s it started to gain some GoldSrc compatibility and this is something we in FWGS work to this day because it's internally different enough from GoldSrc which is a problem for mods that rely on exact engine behavior.

I first encountered Counter-Strike on a cover disc of a game magazine. It was version 1.1, no bots or anything, so I just ran around the maps and enjoyed the architecture. Other than that I got to try one of (if not the) best HL1 Deathmatch map, eden, on a cover disk. I also got to try cool HL1 mods such as Action Half-Life & Box Wars on a cover disc.

Goldsrc was and still is a revolutionary engine that paved the way for lots of mods and even new engines like Source 1 and Source 2.

There are definitely certain things that "The Quake Engine" and GoldSrc did (and does) that seemingly no engine have done since, and certainly not to the same extent. One of the hallmarks of these engines _today_ is how moddable they are, with Quake allowing mods to exist as standalone games, and GoldSrc enabling mods that could build off of existing game data and code, without having to ship the entirety of it (unlike Quake, where the QuakeC code would need to be compiled to a singular progs.dat file that contained the entire bytecode of that game/mod, and was the singular bytecode library loaded).

Originally they shipped WorldCraft as the level editor, already branded for Valve, it even had the same icon as VHE. I found it on my Half-Life GOTY CD with some tutorials and it blew my mind. I made several useless maps and then a HLDM map which wasn't good, but I wish I didn't give up on mapmaking because I'm sure I would have improved.

A bit nit picky perhaps, but Quake the game was made in QuakeC, however the engine was not, and still is not. The Quake engine included a virtual machine able to run a bytecode format that the QuakeC code would be compiled to. Building a QuakeC project would result in a progs.dat file that included all the bytecode for the _game_ itself, however the engine was a separate beast. This allows the engine to be developed _alongside_ the game, as opposed to the two being intertwined as is the case with certain modern titles.

Interesting, I read into it and you are right, thanks for pointing that out. My understanding of it is: the engine code is essentially written in C and the game’s code is then compiled into QuakeC, correct?

@@JellyonPC The game engine itself, that is the software that puts elements on the display, handles input devices and registers controls, performs physics calculations, and so on, is indeed written in plain ol' C. The game code, that is the "logic" for how the game works (enemies, what a gun is, what shooting it does, how fast you move, what happens when you press the jump key, and so on) is written in a custom language called QuakeC. This is then compiled to bytecode (that is, a non-readable binary format of this code) and placed in a singular file called progs.dat. The game engine uses this progs.dat to run the binary game code and ... Well, present the actual game to you. This is very much akin to a web browser being written in C++, but a web application is often written in JavaScript (except the web browser will dynamically compile the JavaScript to a binary format, so you don't have to).
