in [hl1] Spawning unlimited ammo in SP Post #302489
You can use a monstermaker for that. Not only can it spawn monsters/npc's but other items as well such as weapons and ammo.

Simply type the name of ammo item in the Monster Type property and set Number of monsters to -1 which means it'll spawn infinitely each time your trigger the monstermaker.

in Wrong texture applied after compiling Post #302484
It's the - symbol (dash) that indicates a random tiling texture.
You can use Wally to make a duplicate then remove the dash from the texture name.

in [hl1] Save game not working Post #302421
It says it can't find gsg9.mdl. Make sure it exists at models/players/gsg9. This has nothing to do with saving.

Yes, Source Hammer is much worse when it comes to keeping floating points of vertices on the exact same spot.

If you map a complex object using VM and scaling, then work on a different object in the same map, then come back to your initial complex object you'll notice cracks and seams in its structure. If you zoom all the way in, you'll notice that the vertices are slightly spread out.

And the reason why i hope that vluzacn's HammerFloatingPointEnabler tool is better than HLfix is because we can be sure it'll work fine alongside VHLT. I know that HLfix has a couple of issues with the latest SHLT (3.9) and that HLfix is no longer being developed, so im hoping that vluzacn's HammerFloatingPointEnabler will be the perect replacement for HLfix.

Had anyone tried this tool:
http://forums.svencoop.com/showthread.php?t=39037

According to vluzacn, it's like HLFix, except better.
Captain Terror, you seem to be the perfect candidate to try it. If this tool does a better job than HLFix, i'll add it support for it to the Compilator, next to HLfix.

Oh wait, it's not an actual compile tool like csg, bsp vis or rad, it's a standalone executable that patches your Hammer exe.

Do you still want to give it a try, CT, or anyone else?

Not sure if he realised that rockets can be "stolen" by other players laser sights
I did actually, i thought it was a nice gimmick to add to the overall gameplay.

"You hijacked my rocket! :o"
Yeah the RPG map was unplayable for me.

I already got a PM from Stojke asking me to add support for additional tool parameters. It will be added.

The Command Line box on the Profile Manager is not for lunch, but for game launch parameters such as -console, -dev, and all that good stuff.

Then I guess it's time to say goodbye to good ol' ZHLT/SHLT and welcome VHLT. I haven't tried it yet but i will as soon as i have something to map again.

I'll update my Compilator to benefit from the new features it offers. :)

Working on the wool store, but without donations it's going to be a lot of waiting on sheep to get out of love mode.
In the latest 1.0.0 weekly snapshot release, sheep now eat grass and regain their wool. I don't think Daub is gonna update the server though because it's not an officiate update.

But anyway, here are the server and client:

You had Uplink in mind, didn't you?

Looks like you know the basics of mapping but you need to work on your skills a little more as most of those screenshots are... not really that impressive. Why are you posting screenshots with misaligned textures clearly visible?

Nah, i don't think it'll make much of difference, just looked and it's not really that dusty compared to when i added the new layer of cooling paste, it was a lot more dustier.

But i'm gonna do it anyway.

Well, maybe there's another cause for the sudden reboot, don't know what though. Faulty RAM perhaps? I will test that.

My CPU idles at 30°C and as soon as i start compiling, it skyrockets to 50°C within second. Is that even normal?

Ever since i got myself this computer, which was built in 2009, as well as Windows 7 64 bits, i've been using the 64 bits version of ZHLT. It was NEVER EVER a problem, I've compiled tons of stuff with it.

My CPU has been overclocked a couple of month after i got this computer in 2009 and i could compile anything without things getting too hot.
This is no longer the case.
Posted 12 years ago2011-11-11 18:00:27 UTC
in Competition 31 Post #300671
For some unknown reasons, my CPU (an AMD Phenom II X4 955) doesn't like ZHLT anymore. Whenever i compile a pretty good sized map OR a smaller map with high level of detail, my CPU temperature skyrockets up to 50°C and according to SIW (System Information Tool), the maximum temperature of my CPU is 50°C so that's cutting it kinda close. What the fuck? I already experienced multiple instant reboots during map compilation, probably due to the temperature going over 50°C. It was never a problem before so why is it now?

I recently cleaned my CPU and added a new layer of cooling paste, the old layer was completely dried up. Maybe it's was not enough?

Only if i disable the three other cores (using the affinity settings) and leave the main one on, the temperature is acceptable but the compilation process takes a lot longer to complete.
