    No gcf files this time, they are kept in the Common folder, but they are semi packaged, so personaly im gonna wait for the official sdk updates to turn up.

    So far it seems we can't do a whole lot in terms of modding. You can extract all the materials and whatnot and mount them for use in Hammer, and there are entity lists (with little/no documentation) floating around the internet, but I'm personally going to wait for the SDK update.
