Sparky Stereo OS

This is Sparky Stereo OS's stereo work on the Source SDK 2013, forked from ValveSoftware/source-sdk-2013. It adds the sourcevr_display module: Half-Life 2 played in stereo 3D on a 3D display, and stereo screenshots in Steam as side by side, JPS and MPO pictures.

Where it comes from:

• The Source SDK 2013 is made by Valve Corporation.
• Debian is the base of the system.
• SparkyLinux, by Paweł "pavroo" Pijanowski, builds on Debian.
• Sparky Stereo OS is the stereo 3D edition of SparkyLinux: SparkyOS, powered by Debian.

The stereo3d-screenshots branch holds the version the distribution builds. The licence is unchanged; see LICENSE. Valve, Source and Half-Life are trademarks of Valve Corporation.

Sparky Stereo OS, Daniel Ramos's edition of SparkyLinux (by Paweł "pavroo" Pijanowski).
