I was bored and wanted to have some fun with lasers... I have Breen walking into one with a 1000 damage per second LOL
4 path_corners
1 env_laser
1 npc_seagull
The env_laser has a target of the npc_seagull, which flies around the room to each path_corner. The laser is on the center of the ceiling, and points at the bird as it flies around.
It is VERY choppy..... (as seen in http://twhl.co.za/mapvault_map.php?id=3989 )
I need help with this... how can I smooth out the laser so it seems to follow the bird around better?

OMG I'm dense - I just found it, nvm.
IUs there a way to get a prop_phys object to trip an event when it hits a trigger brush? Say a tire hits a "laser" and an alarm sounds.
Also what;s the ent for a sound to be played like an alarm, I cant find it.

Thanks to those who gave valid advice
I'm wondering if there is software out there which will capture video friom a DVD? (I want to make a compilation of video from the Star Wars movies for my g/f)

I'm just wanting to share a thought...
Tonight I finally figured out a simple set of "toggling" triggers. I have a brush that you walk onto which turns on a blue light... then you walk off it, and onto another one - the blue light is off when you walk off the one, and a RED one turns on with the OTHER one.
No I dont want a cookie, No I dont deserve a little silver star, but when you figure something out in Source, it makes ya feel like "Hey I learned something new!"
Triggers are so complex, but I like 'em!

So as I said, does anyone know where I can get those entities?
I do not have the point_camera entity - where do I d/l that FGD from?
Xyos... here you are shooting down something before you do the research
I distinctly remember somewhere there is an ent set you can download for cameras in CS:S
I'll continue searching for it, but I clearly remember it being possible...

Once the clock on the bottom counts down, watch where the player (me) goes and watches the battle)

I guess I didn't explain it properly.
This is for CS:S - not HL2 SP... (hence the goofup in the subject, "GORDON")
I want an area where a camera will continue to look at a player as long as they are in a certain area, or would it just be easier for me to have a single camera aiming at the whole area?
Also, I know there was something I needed to download to have cams in CS:S - I'll search the forums here for it, but if I cant find it I'll let ya know.

What's the problem ZL?
On my steam it says "Deathmatch Classic"
I placed KasperG's map in that directory, and unfortunately I cannot load the map when I create a new server.
Only the standard Deathmatch Classic maps are being shown in the drop-down list

Zombie, I dont have the normal Nero - I have Nero Express that came with my burner
I downloaded a map from the vault marked with a "DM" icon.
I have steam... WHERE do I put the bsp sp I can load it?
(refer to KasperG's "WarpCore" map)

First it was Nero, and THEN I tried Media Player.
I can;t seem to find where to burn Audio CD's slower though. In MP you can't (at least not that I saw)
And no I don't use the PC at all while burning ANYTHING.

I am one of (I am sure) millions that love to make compilation CD's from favorite songs. I especially like one particular group that I have 28 tracks from.
I split them up 14 each onto 2 discs.
Lately when I burn a CD-R it has this tendancy to go about 10 tracks in, and suddenly comes up with a disc error. I've played it in my DVD player, my PS2, my COMPUTER, and even my car stereo... SAME THING. It either stops, or it skips.
Cleaning didn't help, so here I am asking any of you Techies out there what else the problem could be.
FYI - DVD's did the same thing until I started burning them at 4x speed instead of 8x
The drive is a Dual-Layer combo DVD-R/CD-R drive. It was purchased brand-new and installed approximately 6-7 weeks ago.
Thanks in advance for any insight, and sorry for the SEVERELY off-topic opst in here hehe.

Gotta love those browser caches 
Even if t's old, I like it.
Still a pretty sick demonstration of physics 
(sick = AWESOME)
I've been toying with killing Breen in a simple test map - and I had NO IDEA you could shoot the dude right in the head LOL. I damn near fell on the floor laughing at it. Didn;t expect it at all.

Ant, when it comes from someone like Alex in EVERY forum posting of mine, yeah I do.
Anyways...

Alex, do me a favor - dont respond to any of my posts - so far you've been a real jagoff to me and have NOTHING positive to say.
And Seventh, forgive me, but is this NOT the general discussion forum?
And hmm, yeah the car thing was a mistake, but considering this is a GAMING COMMUNITY I figured "I gotta game I no longer play, why not!"
Ya know what guys, you are all pretty good at giving Half-Life advice (with AlexB EXCLUDED for his attitude) but y'all SUCK at encouragement elsewhere. (AlexB INCLUDED in that one)
Fine - close this topic... I'll contact dustbunny some other way. See ya round.

Well, it's not a car LOL - but here's the ad!

Mario... what is your Clan's name?
How do you get Barney to run instead of walk between 2 path_corners? I've tried changing the "new train speed" but nothing happens
I like messing with the physics in the source engine....
MadCow... I don't believe they are.
Built a room, some lighting, and was bored so I decided to create a pyramid of boxes...
Got out the crossbow and started shooting certain ones out...
I saw this and thought "What the hell???"

As you can see, the 4 boxes are being balanced on ONE POINT of a box piece underneath
I wonder if the MythBusters would like to tackle THAT one LOL

I'm a paintball person myself. Although I got rid of my equipment a couple years ago, I would still love to get into it again.
Just something about being able to shoot someone without the whole DEATH PENALTY THING in the way

Yeahy I learned about parenting when I made the example map "Walking Cameras"
Just failed to remember I could do the same thing with ANYTHING that moves

I got it to work 
SWEET!
SWEET!It worked... thank you!
prop_static you mean?
Even when I walk through the area where I placed them - they arent there AT ALL... I dont even "run into" anything.
I placed a bunch of prop_physics (under PROPS, stacked boxes) in a CS:S map... they aren't showing up at all.
Please help if you can

I'm going to be as polite as I possibly can to you....
http://lose.the.tude
ok?
BJ thanks for the help... although the "elevator" is moving as if it's one of thise trains... using W & S as the "speed and direction" controls... it doesnt stop at the top path_track... it hits it and then autmoatically reverses
Also the button stays put on the bottom floor.

Xyos... bsp2map ?
I'm familiar with HL1 decompiling, but HL2 is unknown to me.
EDIT:
It appears that the HL2 maps are not in BSP format... but .cache and .manifest files are there.

Even triggering is becoming an issue.
I don't see that.....
There's func_tracktrain and func_tanktrain shrugs

In Source, how do I make an elevator? What entity am I tying the brush(es) to?
Uhm, elevators in Source, what's the TIE TO ent for an elevator.... func_tracktrain ???
When I place that ent on the board, I can't grab it with the PhysCannon, and it also looks to be about the size of a marble.....
HELP! LOL
