in What Made You a Mapper? Post #153542
I started playing TFC.. Got fed up with everyone playing damned 2fort all the time (yet it is a great map.).. So, I went to the custom map only server named "Axl's TFC where 2fort is a bad thing". And sure enough, it was a bad thing.... If you ever switched the server onto 2fort, "axl" had it edited to where it would crash your computer. I had played here for a long time and wondered how he had made these, so I went to his forum.. http://www.axlstfc.com There, I had the link to download hammer and there was also a conveniant link to twhl. I tried to map and got mad at it because the "in the beginning" tuts tell you to use carve, and it doesnt explain in any way how to actually use carve.. So, I took a break, came back with fresh spirits and got to where I am today.

Me and Fearian have decided to turn his A to B HL1 compo idea into a little project. All we ask is for a short little sequence. It can be a puzzle, a trapped hallway, a tram sequence, whatever.. Just make it an interesting way to get from the entrance of your section to the end of your section. Me and fearian, once we have all of the entries we will get, will string all of these sections together into a playable map..
[texan]-=Rules -n- Stuff=-[/texan]
-- No size restrictions, yet ask you dont make it an entire map..
-- No custom wads, or models. Sounds are allowed.
-- Default HL textures only.
-- Make it have an entrance and exit of however you like, as long as they are there.
-- When you send it, include your username somewhere so we can properly credit you.
-- Have your entry in by January 20.

in HL entitys in CS Post #150021
no, hunt down the model in the halflife.gcf and then export it. Move that into a "custom model folder" located in your cs/models and set the path to the model. Monster apache wont do it. Annd, add an ambient_generic to get the helicopted sound, you may have to export that too.

in Wouldnt ns make an awsome movie, Post #148162
I looked through some natural selection maps for "mapping inspiration" and, with nobody there (offline) and the ambience, you realise how depressing the mod was meant to be. It comes to me, wouldnt it make a kickass movie. Id make it start out like, an infestation started and spread from the hera station. A unique military unit comes down and lands on that outside pad thing (because I like that huge steamy door thing,) and comes in to find the cause of it and kills all of them, gruesomely,
In short,       a better aliens-vs-predator,
wouldnt that be a cool movie?

in Global Trams Post #123323
You notice every load point the tram has to accelerate again and makes the sound.. I would just make a new tram every level and make a trigger_auto start it right when you load up. Go in close to make the start just 1 unit off of the start of the tram.. 0 and you may get stuck, but the 1 unit fall shouldnt be that noticable

in The secret to 2 way breakable glass door Post #121778
You have your frame too a normal swinging door, and then a func illusionionary as your glass... when the door opens, theres 2 env_renders. one changes the showing glass to dissapear, and the other one reveils a swinging door that slides over to the closed position, then that triggering another render to make another illusionary show and the swinging glass dissapear, as the wall behind it will be a button...
to make the glass break, you have to think "outside the door".. you make the opposite walls to the door buttons triggered by bullets, so when a bullet goes through the illusionary, it hits the wall, triggering the glass's to stay gone, the swinging glass to swing to the closed door state (get it outa the way a little), and to trigger some glass shards from env_shooters.. its not completely perfect, but I thought of it while wondering what kinda map I should make.. and, im not bothering to make it as no one door, deserves that many entities to work. tadaa :)

Or, if you want to get all math-ish.... Proportions. to find an aproximate height.. Probly correct. Find an average sized person, measure his height (im gonna say hes 5,6). 72 5,6
X      5.5 feet high
72x66 (5.5 in inches) then that divided by 66 (5,6 in inches), so therefore 72 is about 66 inches.... and 72 divided by 66 is 1.09, so therefore, rounded, 1 unit is about one inch.......... Correct me if I messed up my math................... ---Deep $h!t huh..
