Damnit guys its REALLY not THAT bad.
And i hate how people keep saying that vista is just XP with more goodies.
98 was based off 95, it was just better.
XP was based off 98, (screw ME and 2000) And that was better.
YES, vista is based off XP, but all in all, vista will be better soon.

Well thats why i need help. what should i try doing i have no idea where to start
Hammer 4 is fine. And the newer DX are amazing on vista. Its just something with the old hammer. i Dont know.
So back to actual sugestions... A forest?? i've already made one of those lol. Didnt look too great, but whatever.
vista doesn't suck. It's just very new.
Any suggestions for trigger based maps or layouts or anything? Something that will give me a better feel for the new entities?

Hey guys. I've been mapping for hl1 for quite some time and now that i've swicted to vista, my computer doesnt like hammer 3.4 OR 3.5 anymore. So i'm finishing up my compo map and heading over to source.
Any tips on where to start? Or what to make first?
I have experience with cubemaps, water, displacements, but the trigger system is greek to me.

Urb, seriously. I dont care if you dont like nintendo or not. Borrow someone's 64 (or gamecube) and play Legend of zelda : Ocarina of time.
Its the equivelent of FFVII for Nintendo.

Well... hopefully it'll still be here when that time comes.
I wish people would stop bitching. Because upgrades such as these are necessary. Please tell me people aren't going to be running windows xp in 2050.
Lol. Palm pilots will be running vista version 24 by then.
Anyway. I got the new patch for Visual Studio and it works. Now i'm going to download and install hl2. I'll let you guys know what happens.
EDIT ::
Seems i already had half life 2 installed, and i NEVER got 65 fps before. At some points i peaked at 109. I think it might be running even better than before!!
I think.
Anyway the point is. Hl2 and such do run fine.
Thank god

I'm flying back to Connecticut tomorrow. Then driving back to Florida with my 120w amp!!! Wooo !
now i can really piss off ANYONE in my dorm building.
And i do think 6-D would be something I'd like to try (i don't know if you can call it mapping.. but.) mapping for.

Or u can wait until 6:00 or 12:00, jump in, and everything would stop.
MUCH easier.
BTW
If anyone wants to know, the Camaro has 604 solids in it.

I think the hl2 tex pack is like 64mb.

No other bad experiences yet. Right now I'm installing the Vista BETA patch for Visual Studio because i have no other C++ compiler.
And i also managed to find an .iso mounting program.
So no other bad experiences yet. I'll let you guys know.

Maybe the guys at black mesa source could answer that question for ya
Yes. I'm trying to be patient. But now my C++ compiler doesn't run either. So I'm downloading visual studio (2gig, again from the school) and i'll try to compile with that.
I usually use notepad and G++ (runs through command prompt) but even with a clean install there are missing files.
@ Zombieloffe - is there a point for stewie?

Ok i fixed my "not being able to run steam" problem, but i figured out i dont have OpenGL or D3D support.... Or... i cant/dont know how to use it yet.
So i guess copying the files from Windows.old to the regular program files turned out to be a bad idea.
I copied them back, re-wrote the pathnames and everything works peachy.
I can build, compile, run. Everything. My 3-D view still lags but that shouldnt hinder my map any. I can run HL1, but only in software mode.
I guess i can't tap into the VISTA drivers from windows.old, but i'm looking into it.
I guess windows.old acts like windows XP; the folders are almost completley independant, and all the paths match up.
So if anyone had windows xp and installed vista, keep the files in windows.old because you can still browse to them and run programs..

Well i definitely think it's too late now. Seeing as how the vista install purged XP from my system. I'll just fiddle with it and let you guys know how and if i solved anything. For future reference.
Lol im not borrowing, it was given. Its permanant.
There was no upgrade option, and vista completley erases XP.
I'll just have to debug it myself.
Right now im re-installing steam and all the games.
Hammer seems to work fine, only the lag and won half life doesnt run, (ill try the 3333333333 cd key whatever)
at least firefox still works
And penguin boy,
just shut the hell up. If ur not gonna help, just leave

I have the business edition.
But i have no clue what i'm doing. It's so... new.
I love it, but all i want to do is continue to work on my map for the competetion
When i transferred my WON version of HL to vista (drag and drop form Windows.old) it's prompting me for a cd key.. which i dont have with me in florida.
none of my steam games are "Availible at this time"

For scaling purposes, i stuck an info_player start in a room, and then built myself the front bumper. After that it was just using reference photos to get the shape of the car.
Iroc-z's are SO sexy.

func_breakable that triggers a func_train to go straight down OR make one of them a func_wall with health set to whatever damage you want. Make the lip HUGE ( a negative number) so they'll fall all the way down.
