The download broke. An old version of Hammy-Bob Mod had a tw_space, so I replaced the download with that - it appears to be the same map.

This is really clever

I played it on a public HLDM server a while back and had a good time. It reminded me of Battlefield 3's Ziba Tower a little bit. You need to constantly be looking around you

Hammer can't open the .map without modification. You can fix it by opening the file in a text editor first and replacing every instance of "\Steam\steamapps\common\Half-Life\valve" with just "valve". That reduces the length of the "wad" property, allowing Hammer to open the map.

If this is a multiplayer map, please choose Half-Life Deathmatch as game. It's the name for Half-Life's multiplayer mode and not to be confused with Deathmatch Classic.

I'm happy to see you stop by, even if just for a moment, and I hope you'll be okay! Thanks for sharing all the songs with us, I especially liked This Little Town!

They never got around to it. I added two screenshots that show most of the map

There's a game called Colony 42 on Steam now. Any relation? https://store.steampowered.com/app/448860/Colony_42/

Thanks for uploading it again! 👏 I'm going through the entire vault, seeing what works and what doesn't, trying to fix broken downloads and other issues. I wish I could say I was especially curious about this map, but the screenshot really doesn't do your map justice! I played it now, and it was such a surprise how enjoyable it was! It was a really fun puzzle, and you put a lot of work into the ending! Thanks again for making me and everyone else able to play this after all this time!

If you run out of ideas again, if you like mapping buildings, check out this site for some architecture from the company that designed Taipei 101: https://www.cylee.com/project/

Google Chrome is unfortunately overprotective and stops you from downloading most programs that are "not commonly downloaded". It's a headache for programmers working on hobby projects like this.

It's unplayable because the spawn points are in the ceiling so you can't move
Commented 2 years ago2022-08-27 21:41:32 UTC in vault item: Intruder: Cliffhanger Comment #104731
They updated the map so it doesn't need custom wads. It is missing sound/ambience/radio1.wav but the map can be played without it. If you try to play the map, note that the file name is misspelled so type "map intuder".

Make a king of the hill map. You just need a good setting. A city park with a statue or a gazebo?

Two versions for three games. For TFC and Scientist Hunt, you should use 2bases.bsp?
Commented 2 years ago2022-07-21 15:17:03 UTC in vault item: dmc_cabininthewoods Comment #104672
The info_player_start allows you to start the map in singleplayer mode which you need for noclip.

To start the map in singleplayer mode with cheats on:
deathmatch 0
and
sv_cheats 1
followed by
changelevel dmc_cabininthewoods
or
restart

This is a fantastic idea! Could you upload an .rmf or a .map please? There's a lot of people on this site who use other editors than JACK (usually Hammer). I would really appreciate it. Again, great idea!

Edit: Jessie had the map, so I uploaded it. Thanks, Jessie!

I have merged the two vault items for this mod, to reduce the number of duplicates we have in the vault. The other post didn't have any comments so nothing was lost. You can edit this one when there's a new version. Unlike when you posted this, these days recently edited vault posts are shown on the front page so people will notice. I love the map pack, by the way, there are so many great maps that I couldn't find anywhere else :)
Commented 2 years ago2022-07-18 10:05:03 UTC in wiki page: info_player_coop Comment #104664
Every entity has the "Not in Deathmatch" flag, even info_player_deathmatch. Not every FGD has it for every entity, but you can still set the flag and the game engine will remove the entity from multiplayer games.

Commented 2 years ago2022-07-15 23:56:16 UTC in vault item: AI problems (handipac) Comment #104661
I have added jp_dev.wad to the download. tudyr.wad isn't required and the map uses no textures from it.
Commented 2 years ago2022-07-15 00:59:12 UTC in vault item: Indoor Map Pack Comment #104658
I have added proper screenshots.

The three maps are identical, except cs_indoor has CTs starting with M4A1s and Ts starting with AK47s, m4a1_indoor has everyone starting with M4A1s, and ak47_indoor has everyone starting with AK47s.

kamyon95, search for "wadinclude". The textures are in the .bsp.

"Attributes: Animation Sequence (editor) (sequence)" Is that one only used by Hammer Editor and not the game?

Judging by the address I think the download has always been broken. Do you still have the files, Captain Trevor?

Commented 2 years ago2022-07-13 21:37:56 UTC in vault item: 1stab Comment #104649
It does have lighting, but it's not a pretty map - first and foremost because of how you used lighting. If you can see stars in the sky the ground shouldn't be so bright: it's a disturbing combination, like it's day and night at the same time. And because there are no outer walls it looks like the whole map is floating in space.

I think this kind of map is usually called a 35hp map. Though in this map you have 37 HP.
