Its a very fun mod for Hl2, and the point of the game is you have to try and kill a escaped experiment. He is almost completly invisible with increased speed and strength. So i did the reasonable thing and practiced until i was a pro, and by that i meant i thought how could i make the game unfairly balanced to help me? The anwser was C#, and you can convert this to almost any language its really not that hard at all. You just got to know how to move a file to a different directory in your language.

1) First start Visual C# 2008 and make a new project. Name it whatever you want.

2) Next add two buttons, make the first one called "Start before you join a server, or while changing a map", and the secound one "Start as soon as you see MOTD"

3) Time to code, double click your first button and add this code:
Spoiler (Click to View)
string sourceFile = @"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\SourceMods\hidden\materials\models\manor\mn_tapestry.vmt";
string destinationFile = @"C:\Users\Public\Videos\mn_tapestry.vmt";
System.IO.File.Move(sourceFile, destinationFile);

4) Now go to your secound button's code and add the same thing but switch around the directories.
Spoiler (Click to View) string sourceFile = @"C:\Users\Public\Videos\mn_tapestry.vmt";
string destinationFile = @"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\SourceMods\hidden\materials\models\manor\mn_tapestry.vmt";
System.IO.File.Move(sourceFile, destinationFile);

Now compile it and test it out, it will make the Hidden a purple and black checkerbox. Why? Because it moves the file so the Source engine automaticly replaces it with checkerbox. Now the secound button it allows you to keep playing because at the start of each round it checks to see if your materials match up, and since the secound button puts it back into the folder it will fool it into thinking you are playing fair. (I know i am terrible at describing things)
