No problem!

Ah shite, I knew I was forgetting to do something.
I'll get that fixed up and update the description - thanks for helping me debug this update so I could get it working properly!

It works! It shows up as "Half-Life 2: Test Mod" now though. But it now runs.

Alright, I've went and re-ported the mod, this time to 2013. Make sure you're part of the "upcoming" beta for the SDK Base 2013 Singleplayer (otherwise mods will just CTD), delete the mod folder, and re-download it. Hopefully it'll work now, because if it doesn't I'm out of ideas.

Ah, it's been a while since I've installed mods for Source and I don't have the 2013 SDK base installed. It does have a bin folder. If installing the 2013 SDK base doesn't work then I'll try renaming that and then if not I'll get back to you.

EDIT: Installed the 2013 SDK Singleplayer and Multiplayer base. Didn't work. Changed the name of the bin folder. It didn't work. Tried re-installing the mod off a fresh download. After trying those first 2 things. That didn't work.

That's odd. Okay, a few more things to check - does the mod have it's own bin/ folder, and if yes, does renaming it fix the error? I'm assuming you have all the Source SDK bases also installed?

I really wish there was an easier way to tell what exactly is happening on your end, that error doesn't specify what directory it's trying to load etc.

Thank you for your continued patience and cooperation, I want to make sure this can, and will continue to, run for users.

That could not possibly have been my first orgasm, considering the fact that my son is eleven years old.

This is a really nice looking awp map. We have this map on my clan's server and it's a lot of fun to play when there's only a few people on.

Yes, and I can see Ep 2 start running on the menu in Steam, but then I get that error message.

Sourcemods is the correct folder, but due to the steampipe update breaking this a few years back I've had to do some porting. (hence the update) It should be loading the Episode 2 dlls in the current version - do you have Ep2 installed?

And, here's an update:

Well, I'm thinking either AC or BC, 16GB. What do you think?
I initially went for a Samsung 850 EVO (250GB) but it's a bit too expensive.

The MS PSU is a placeholder until I can find the price of an EVGA 450 B1 in my country. MS Industrial's PSUs are plain unreliable, and they're like a disease which roams nothing but the lands of former Yugoslavia (at least as far as I can tell). Their cases seem to be fine though.

Which folder do I install this in? I assumed the sourcemods folder and it shows up in steam but when I try to launch it I get this error.

"Failed to load the launcher DLL:

The specified module could not be found."

One another advice: IIRC you're about 16, read the heck out of every book that you find interesting.

Speaking of that, I got a book about what Bosnia and Herzegovina was like in 1896 (as part of the reward on the IT competition). I'll definitely read it.

About the PC, I think it's good luck in disguise. I mean, 5 years ago I really wanted an AMD A4-6300, AMD Radeon HD 6450 and 2 or 4 GB of DDR3 RAM. I was pretty much just going for the cheapest things I could find on PcPartPicker, not caring at all about the motherboard, PSU and the case.
2 years after that, I went for something similar: AMD A4-6300, AMD R7 250, 4GB of RAM. In 2015, I wanted an AMD X4-860K, nVidia GTX 750 Ti, and 4GB of RAM. In 2017, I finally decided to choose something more relevant: AMD Ryzen 5 1500X, RX 460 or GTX 1050, 8GB of RAM etc.

And this year, I think some of the parts will be the following:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600
Memory: 8, 12 or 16 GB (200KM, 300KM vs. 400KM, we'll see)
GPU: GTX 1050 or 1050 Ti (330KM vs. 470KM, we'll see)
Storage: 1TB HDD and a 250GB SSD

As for the motherboard, PSU and case, I've talked to my seller about it. Cases are one of the most repetitive things in this country. In every shop, it's either 3 or 4 unique cases. <-<
And good PSUs are rare, as most shops only have ones from an unknown brand, and are mostly 300W. Motherboards aren't as rare, but there are usually no quality ones unless you really invest into them.

Luckily we managed to find an Asus Prime B350-Plus, which to me seems good. It even has a PS/2 port which I find surprising, but that's good as well. I won't have to buy a new keyboard.

@JeffMOD
Thanks for the advice, I'll keep that in mind.

Nothing like the feeling of unpacking boxes and putting together a new machine, hooking it all up, and having it boot for the first time. I've only done it twice but each time was a massive upgrade in what games I could play and what software I could use. UNLIMITED POWER!!!!!

Just uh, make sure you put the standoff screws in your motherboard where applicable (A lot of more modern designs aren't using them as much anymore). I almost fried my first build by neglecting to do that. (I thought they were extras, didn't realize they were a special kind!)

After 7 years, I find it harder to fap to this, but still one of the finest CS 1.6 maps around TWHL.

Admer-able!

I can somewhat relate too your story. I received my first "beefy" computer when I was 14 after years of dreaming of one - I've used a Pentium 2 until that point since I was 6. I remember it even now: a Pentium Dual-Core, 1GB of RAM, Nvidia 7600GS. I remember that in the next few months I had basically become an information sponge - learning whatever there is to learn about using the internet, discovering mapping and TWHL and other communities. Some of the members here had crazy amounts of patience because - here I was, a foreigner with a passion for technology, not knowing English very well and certainly not acquainted with the way of ze interwebs. Those were some of my most enthusiastic times, I sometimes try to remember my enthusiasm when the gates of the internet opened to me to try and apply it to new domains of my life.
I remember that I soon knew that my configuration wasn't really capable for the latest titles, so I began collecting whatever pocket change I could over the course of more than a year, and then bought myself 2GB of RAM, an Ati Radeon HD4850 and a new power supply. 2 years later I applied the same pattern in order to buy myself a camera.

I encourage you to continue with this behavior. I feel like an impatient man, but those years of having to have patience for so long for a thing balances things a little bit. You will find that most of your peers will become really just creatures of the moment, triggered by stimuli but not looking into the future. I can't say I'm not like that, I've just started to be conscious of that. Us millennials, and especially those born after 2000 had the bad luck of having their attention-span really fucked up by the social media.

One another advice: IIRC you're about 16, read the heck out of every book that you find interesting. I can't believe how much free time I had back then and wasted a lot of it. At about your age I remember I discovered League of Legends, and got so hooked on it that I used to play at least 4 matches per day (and some matches can last an hour). That's the most I knew.. I had not mentor and as every kid, didn't listen too much to my parents.Be careful with things that capture your attention too much, but give you very little over time. Sure, it's important to have fun and make friends. But I guess you understand what I'm talking about.

Congrats for your effort once again, keep us updated!

A pretty good Singleplayer level, plenty of hidden goodies to look for and very solid gameplay.

The links all died because i killed Weebitmagic.

Updating the link bumped it to the front page

Did you just update this?

I have a sense of deja vu.

Good timing for this example, I added a link to this to the Tutorial: Counter-Strike mapping page since it's a common problem that people have when mapping for CS. Thanks for making it!

So satisfying to look at the wireframe. :]

Still the best map of the mounth
