Damn, British people really need to invest a lot of effort just to take a Bath. Anyway, a happy stinky birthday, Andy!
Archie said:nobody is ever going to Bath
Well maybe someday I will. I plan some time in my life to come to London and take a rented cruiser from there and visit UK around. Although maybe you're right, it would be much more fun to go towards the north, maybe visit the Lagavulin distillery.
Again, for goodness sake take a bath man, but happy BIRTHDAY!!!!!
I thought the tutorial series needs an addendum as to what other things you might want to set up for your mod; stuff that isn't related to in-game content. Feel free to add whatever I may have missed.
Also it's past midnight and I have to postpone integrating this to the rest of the tutorial's navigation.

It’d be nice to set up a TWHL Sven Co-op game once in a while, not for this map in particular (though I wouldn’t mind). I think it’d be great, there’s so much to try out.
As I mentioned in one of the Screenshots, J.A.C.K does not support multiple sprite(), iconsprite() or studio() parameters in one line. (at least as long as I've seen it in the Free version)
Another situation I've seen in the free version is that it only renders the last parameter.
For example, because the last parameter in this entity is studio("fgd/half-life/Advanced_FGD Models/Arrows/monster_generic.mdl"), only the Arrow model is rendered in J.A.C.K.
Thought this would be useful in development of the JACK version
Since I've noticed this problem I think the only solution is to keep the parameter count [ number of sprite(), iconsprite() or studio() ] at 1 in the definition lines of all entities. Which means a big downgrade in FGD for the JACK version.
Also, what markup language do you use in Notepad++ for this? Or did you create your own?
I didn't use a Markup language for FGD. I used Notepad++ but used it as normal writing.

I'm sure a lot of people here can relate to your primary school experience. Don't worry, it gets better
Big change for me at that age was finding more hobbies I could share with people outside the digital space. A lot of cool things already have great and welcoming communities around them. For me it was indoor climbing - something I still do today 15-20 years later! Maybe it's sport or music or theatre or chess or painting or woodwork or sailing - or anything! Having at least one thing separate from your digital life and your school life can be hugely beneficial.

Stop Typing Like This, Please. It Is Incorrect. Your text is very hard to read because of that.
I hope your life situation improves. I can relate, I had really bad classmates in primary school and was bullied a lot in 6th grade. 7th grade onward had less bullying, but my classmates made every day an inconvenience because it was fun to them.
But if I learned one thing, it's that life is like a wave. It goes up and down. And from what I can tell, you've been going down quite a bit, which only means one thing: it's about to go up.

It's like being on a real place. Very masterfully done.
Also couldn't help myself from opening the file in bspguy to see how the flip do you trigger all the buttons to get to the secret, and also having a sneak peek at it. It's a whole other level (in both sense!)

Still had crashings even without those folders.
I resorted to editing the liblist.gam and comparing it to another mod that also uses vanilla dlls and is confirmed to work - USS Darkstar. I replaced gamedll to match darkstar's so it now reads:
gamedll "..\valve\dlls\hl.dll"
the edited liblist.gam:
// gamedir "cubicles"
game "TWHL Cubicles"
startmap "cubicle01"
trainmap "cubicle01"
version "1"
// gamedll "dlls\hl.dll"
gamedll "..\valve\dlls\hl.dll"
// cldll "1"
mpentity "info_player_coop"
url_info "TWHL.co.za"
// hlversion "1110"
type "singleplayer_only"
I like that you are making a big forest map, that's not too common. And you use sounds a lot, that's very important

If you remove the other files that aren't needed, you cut the size down from 580 MiB to 126 MiB. This means faster downloads and less space wasted. Of course, since this is just a prototype it's not a big deal

It would also be good to have articles for light_surface and other compiler entities

This doesn't occur in the Free JACK version though.
