It's pointless. I don't need a special program to show me the custom games menu, thank-you very much. Updating? Fine. New servers, better browser, etc, sure thing. Pointless extra program? Unnecessary!

The prefabs come with Hammer, not HL/Steam. Get 3.4 and then the 3.5b .exe. You can also get them here (they're the .ol files).

Note that that link will only work when my PC is on.

env_laser, use the "End Sprite" property for the sprite and have the "target of laser" set to your func_train. Make sure that the _train has an origin brush.

You can't make the sprites as env_sprites, but you could probably use an env_beam somehow.

I'm pretty sure it's a Steam thing, but ZL makes it sound like CS only. Try it if you care enough, you know where the file goes and what it shud be called.

Probably a bad idea. SUBST is a much better way, so you can map, say, e:Program FilesSierraHalf-LifeSteamSteam to s: like so:

1. Open a DOS prompt
2. SUBST S: "e:Program FilesSierraHalf-LifeSteamSteam"
3. Done.

in Non-sprite set to glow! Post #50913
Uh... well, you're gunna just have to hunt for any entities set to rendermode glow.

Or, you could do this:

1. Open your map
2. In Hammer, File -> Export to .MAP
3. Locate the newly-created file and open it in Notepad or another plain-text editor (not Word, Wordpad, etc).

4. Edit -> Find (or program equivilent), and search for:
"rendermode" "3"
Just like that, quotes and all. That will skip to the first entity set to 'glow'. If you find, on the line below, a curly bracket {, then, on the next few lines, lots of co-ordinates, then you've found a brush-based entity. Remove the "rendermode" line and all will be fine and dandy (assuming you've only done it to that one brush).

If you're still stuck, e-mail me the RMF or upload it to the Map Vault :)
