Lazy · **HL1 For other platforms? -** 31-08-2005

I've been wondering why no one has decided to upgrade the old quake engine so linux/macos users can play hl1 natively.
It seems possible, you'd need to strip out the quake virtual machine and replace it with HL's interface along with a few other major changes but it looks possible.

I think it would be pretty cool to see HL running natively on my powermac 7500 ( G4/450 upgraded ).
Does anyone know of any legal/technical reasons why this hasn't been done yet?
