What's the entity that is near the end of HL2 that you use the gravity gun to grab (some kinda of power cell???)

I want to place a few in a HL2 map I'm making.

BTW - new computer... little bit better video

I have a map I started for CS:S, and I have 16 of both info_player_terrorist and info_player_counterterrorist

I start a server with 3 AI bots and myself, but when I go to join a side, says all teams FULL - has anyone run into this before?

in Had to reinstall... Post #172643

After trying to build a Multiplayer "go cart" map (using 2 buggies) and not finding the buggy model ANYWHERE, I wiped out Steam, and reinstalled.

My question is where to unpack the ,pak files to. Seventh says NEVER to unpack them into Steam folders. So where SHOULD I put them?

Also how do I find the buggy model?

Okay, create a room big enough to fit you, and about 12-16 seagulls

make 4 path corners... name them path1 - path4 (skip a digit for each "next path target")

Now... equip SMG2

Have fun trying to shoot them down

NO I'm not a sick twisted killer of animals, I just noticed they fly, AND that you can shoot them down

I have a traffic cone hooked up to a physic_ballsocket - kinda like a pinata setup LOL - the cone swings freely.

At times if I am standing at one end of the room, shoot the cone with say the crossbow, it starts violently swinging... at times actually FADING as if it's disappearing.

What exact setting in the console do I adjust to be able to see this stuff far off - cuz it also happens with other prop_physics objects like the roadblock signs and such

Okay maybe I shouldn't celebrate JUST YET, but right now, I have a small 6 brush, 2 entity map OPEN in HL2!!!

I'm gonna keep adding stuff to it little by little to see what my system can handle. But I GOT the SDK running as well. I figure if I dont have the Hammer Editor open while i run a map, it'll free up SOME memory.

In the editor views, when you have a brush selected... I could swear that when you hold down the SHIFT key and tap an arrow key, it copies the selection to the next grid step's location.

As you know from my thread "What am I doing wrong" I am knocked back to HL1 and related programs (for now). Not to make it sound BAD, but those who have played HL1, THEN played HL2 I am sure agree that going back to HL1 is like going back to the Stone Age LOL!

So here is my question, because I seem to have no choice but to deal with Steam.

Where on earth is the WAD file?

Each time I start Hammer, it says there are no textures loaded for the game.

Help if you can. Please.

TIA!

Steam installed... HL2 downloaded and updated, along with HL, CS:S, and the Source SDK.

HL runs fine... Source SDK and HL2 however will not start. The MENU for the SDK starts, but when I try to launch Hammer, NOTHING comes up... same for HL2... launching just doesn't happen.

Here's my system specs

XP Pro
AMD Athlon 1.1GHz
384MB RAM
DirectX 9.0c
VisionTek Radeon 7000

(the card is a 64MB but dxdiag is showing the following)

Approx. Total Memory: n/a

I've restarted my comp 5 times now, and NOTHING still! As I said, HL runs fine, but anything source based won't run

I have to resort to downloading the content to each game in HL2...

In the last 4 days I've gone 2% of Counter Strike: Source... and tonight when I tried downloading more of it, I left the computer unattended and NetZero cut me off!

I really need DSL or Cable. DSL is supposedly available in this area, BUT they have no "open slots" in this area... and Cable wants $45 a month!
