Another Mod proposal: H-L2

The Ut2k4 mod thread, as i see, is dead.
I was just thinking about this option. That's even more theoric than the ut2k4 mod, because i don't have the needed c++programming skills by now(a miracle if i can correctly use a pointer

, but good in modeling and level editing), so it's up to you.
But I thought to post here just a proposal, so if there are any programmers alive here...
I played Half-Life 2, and just finished the SP: superb for the gameplay, almost perfect about the programming. And, if you bought the game, valve offers you the full modding sdk, sources included.
I don't mean strange scripts, but the great part of the sourcecode, in real .cpp and .h files (i've them on my hd)
Now, assuming there is already a 6degrees movement implemented (just think abut diving), already a complex movement system with accelerations and also an extra running speed option (works perfectly equal to the D2 afterburner). I think any medium skilled programmer can really do something with this.
That's just a proposal, and its a real concrete chance we have ( and one of the last, i think)
Just post here your impressions...

I was thinking of something similar myself, but it wouldn't be entirely 6DOF... mainly because it's a campaign, heh.

But you know... a Descent MOD for HL2 wouldn't be all that hard IMO. I'd need to get the game, but nonetheless. It'd be a good thing to work on to get me into the loop for that campaign...

what do you mean with "campaign"? if it regards descent, the first things are the 6dof...

Single-player mission, basically.
