darn it i seem to hav 4 got how to make sumthing invisible
is it that u either use
func_illusion
or u make a block assign invisible texture to it
cause the 2nd one doesnt work for me cause instead of it being invis it seems to go black? :
Forum posts
ummm i did as u said and it worked yeah but it seems to hav made my sci appear under the ledge and slightly under the floor
this is odd as i raised him on hammer just a sec ago :

o ok thnx thats sumthing new to me but uhh u see i want the scientist to hang on a ledge and well if his hands dont touch the ledge its not going to look realistic but i dont care as long as the yellow crap goes
sorry i dont quite follow you
are u saying that if i move the scientist a little the yellow stuff wont appear or are u answering my other question???

didnt the q stand for quake or sumthing
well not exactly more like spore on my screeen
i am yet again continuing horror map and thought why not hav a scientist hanging off a lede then a trigger makes him fall so i did all te stuff tested it and it worked fine well i need to position the scientist a bit more cause his hanging in mid air lol
well basically i thought it looked fine untill i realised there was yellow spore crap around the scientist, and i remeber seeing that b4 sumwer but not wen the scientists are hanging on half life
so one thing how the hell do i stop that yellow crap from appearing around my character arrrrghhh :

yep and that was funny with the matrix exit 
yeh thats exactly what im making it for floater cause i saw a thread on it and decided to enter!! ull be scared thats for sure! 
oh thnx thats useful as well and i was wondering what shooter did
hmm thats odd i never seen a mirror ther wel i havent played cs in a while well if the mirror reflects the player then i hav no idea how they did that cause a lot of threads say its impossible to make a mirror that relflects a person but u can make a mirror seethrough and copy the entire room and rotate it opposite to the map and place it so it faces the mirror and voila a sort of mirror in a cheating kind of way
very clever as well actually
very clever as well actually
the @?
the ashtray has that ash crap in it so i dont know how that works out unless his making a deathmatch map based inside an ashtray now isnt that interesting

i read sumwer that decals can sumtimes appear in hammer but not in the compiled version read the tut or sumthing cause i remember reading it there :
na its just fate that has u but basically sounds like ur compilar is either
1.sendingur .bsps to another folder wer the game doesnt look
2.ur config on hammer is wrong
3.all of the above
p.s. peace isnt very peaceful as down was saying

i hav experienced lag sumtimes and as above im just going to say similar things either
1. ur running too many programs which is unlikely
2. ur comp is so full it need to be defragged and maybe sum stuff u dont need to be deleted
3.uve got too much stuff on ur map (too many entities that get complicated lag it)
4.all of the above
well thats all i can say sorry if it doesnt work im sure if you keep trying ull come through it

guess they dont 
ok i am still working on my horror map and i wanted a scientist to run across a high balcony above you and into a room which triggers the sound scream and the gibshooter to shoot blood below so i first tried to get the scientist to run from 1 end to the other but he just stands their like an idiot oh and yes i hav included the trigger im not that dumb
help me!!!
habboi
help me!!!
habboi
hopefully they might add a mirror in hl2
no im not checking cause it tells u on side if sum1 has posted another post
yeh but does that mean u can use mp3 or must u use .wav i mean whats the difference .wav seems to work fine for me especially wen i want a screaming scientist lol
yeh u did it in the end and u should be proud oh and now that its in the vault other people can see how you did it if they ever get stuck so well done
umm u hav to edit sumthing umm i think its the sentences.txt but u make sure u back it up in case errors and well maybe a smarter person can answer ur question cause im not entirely sure :
wonder whats wrong?
thanku urban ur a life savour like mephs lol
har har well im not very good at cliffs so i gave up on the whole isssue : :
doesnt any1 no?
strange as in nasty or so weird i dont want to look at it or u think its funny or uve seen it b4? :
cause another trick was wen u push a button on a soda machine an blood and guts cums out instead of a drink quite funny
yeh but does it automatically send out blood and guts everywer?
what is?
maybe if u assign the target of the push to the thing u want to move im not sure but if it dont work u can assign a func_train to the func pushable to giv the illusion its being pushed but keep it pushable so wen sum1 goes upto it it will move im not sure entirely though so ignore me :
i remember a bit in half life wen you enter a room and a scientist is being pulled into a vent then blood and guts comes out which was pretty hilarious the first time so i wanted to no how they did it ino they used a sequence on the scientist so that it is pulled but the blood and guts bit puzzles me so if u no tell me plz
habboi
habboi
thnx
and it also looks my dead cat (not kidding) died like 5 years ago makes me kinda sad
thnx people
ok i may have studied for 2 years but you can still learn a lot of things so u proberly no as much as i no zat
woah the train shape is still too hard any tips cause i got sum annoying shape and then itcame with errors etc damn i hate vm sumtimes : 
im in the mood for a drink of blood well sumthing like that in fact i see in half life lots of blood on walls and floor etc and i was wondering how they did that as well so i think they used sprites am i correct and if so whats the name of the sprite?
well its a trick i learnt i think u could make a huge block or brush as u brains call it then make it so it covers the bit u want to delete then go to tolls and carve it will get rid of it but its risky cause of its problems try it and see if im right
lol
lol weird isnt it oh and by the way because u saved my life i put ur name on my map ok wit u?
umm the same thing happened to me cause it came up with
quote'
The instruction at "0x0040574d" referenced memory at "0x0202c020". The memory could not be "read".
click ok to terminate program
cancel to debug
and then it has hlcsg.exe has encountered a problem etc etc so i need to figure out whats wrong
quote'
and i figured out that it was not the compiling fault but the map itself cause it had cliffs in it that i 'borrowed' off another map but it seems those cliffs wernt made for half life so i suggest making another map and see if it works :

ok odd title but basically i am making a horror map and wanted to trigger a custom sound called getout.wav quite spooky actually anyway i set the trigger to target getout and the ambient_generic called getout should play the getout sound at first it didnt work cause i realised i need to put it in a ambient folder so i did that and tested it worked i heard the sound but the only thing is instead of triggering it it seems to play automatically at the start of the map and nothing i try seems to make it work so i trigger it odd i think so help me plz

true very true but if you read up more you can achieve many things cause i learnt a whole load of things yesterday and sum more scare ideas ho ho soon youll all be shaking like shaking machines :
oh good ur starting the halo map again so umm how is it going hav u got any pics yet or are u just about to start mapping again? :
thnx
u say in cs but is it possible n hl sounds complicated but maybe if u tried hard enough like i did which causes hours of stress then u should get it to work
oh ok well im not that good u no ive only studied for like 2 years :
so i hav to ask them even if i use the model but dont realise it online
