Awesome! Count me in. Less Minecraft, more Half-Life mapping. Hopefully...
Do you ever quit complaining about your laptop?
I don't know anything about SoHL other than the MoveWith thingy which is probably the only reason why I'd vote for SoHL.
Why do we need additional programming? The project is getting way too complicated if we throw custom gamecode into the mix. Just let us stick with SoHL and call it a project.

I didn't knew this existed...
It's like Mario Maker, but with Mega Man! Nnnnnnnng!
It's a free fan made game about creating your own Mega Man levels in the classic NES 8-bit style.
Give it a try. Let's create some levels for each other, who's in?

You should post future questions in the HL Engine Discussion forum next time. The Maps and Mods forum is more used to show off projects and advertise releases. No mapping questions.
Aren't path_tracks specifically used in conjunction with func_track_trains? Try path_corners instead.

I like what you're doing, Windawz, I'm a big C&C fan, however my faith in the series has diminished since the release of C&C4 and the cancellation of Command & Conquer 2013.
Because EA.
Anyhoo, keep this going, I'd love to see what comes out of this.
Peace Through Power!

I don't think I've seen your name pop up on QR codes though, at least not 'Jessie'.
This is neat stuff. ^^
Also:
Seems appropriate. Well played, game. ^^
Happy Easter!

I have no clue how that code works but I think I'm gonna snag it because I feel an entity like that is very handy to have.
Enjoying The Talos Principle. Good stuff.
Egypt. Again. I have Serious Sam's voice as Elohim, and even he complained about it. I don't mind, I love the Egyptian look. No Gnaars or Kleers though... Serious Sam 4 pls?
Also, Penguinboy:
The QR code next to Penguinboy is from someone named Strideh. What.

This post was made on a thread that has been deleted.
I was gonna say that looks like Nod's Temple. Looks like I'm not the only one. xD
Kane will be pleased.

Mkay.
Uplink I got nothing in the works. I'm completely out of mapping at the moment. Hate it.
What? You need to open up a support ticket to be able to add custom maps to the server?
What.
What.
It is indeed No One Lives Forever, one of my favorite games ever.
You can download a copy of NOLF and NOLF 2 here: NOLF Revival
I don't consider this illegal software spreading or piracy as this game can't be bought anymore and no one know who actually owns the rights of both games which is why there hasn't been any sort of a digital re-release of both games.
I say just grab yourself a copy and play it, it's good.
What do you think about sheep?

OMFG hell yes!
This game works!
I actually had a chance to playtest Unq's map. It's good. 
I really want to continue my entry but it looks like this project is dying, which would be a shame, really.

Does that post mean you're in, Angry Carrot? You can come up with somethingI can't really decide. I have an idea, and I already worked something out but I I'm not sure I like it.
Well then. Thanks for letting me know, because I didn't know that! 
So instead of calling -wadinclude for every single wad file, you can also specify a folder like -wadinclude <folder> to wadinclude every wad file in that folder? That's news to me, it must've been a new feature with VHLT then.
To me it looks like not a single wad file is wad included, with the exception of zhlt.wad.
If you look at your hlcsg.exe parameters:
Also, have you loaded more than 8 wads in Hammer? Having more than 8 wads loaded could cause problems with compiling, not sure about that though. It was a thing way back in the early days of mapping. I always load no more than 8 wads in Hammer.
As for the map name itself, it doesn't matter where it's placed in the commandline parameters. I'm using my own Compilator for compiling, and it places the map file name at the beginning of the commandline, before all the switch options. It has never been a problem.
If you look at your hlcsg.exe parameters:
hlcsg.exe mil_duty10 -cliptype precise -estimate -chart -wadinclude d:\wads...you'll see that the -wadinclude option targets a directory, rather than an actual wad file. You'll need to call -wadinclude for every wad file you want to include in your bsp, so the list of parameters for hlcsg.exe can get quite long, depending on the number of wad you want to include.

So the whole idea is to have a hub map on an alien world where you ended up after a rogue teleport has gone wrong. To get back to the Real World/Earth/Black Mesa, you have to retrieve an item/relic/artifact/fragment/whatever from the hub's connected side maps to reactivate the portal or something.
Is that the idea?

Haha, good one. The Thing is one of my favorite horror movies.
Anyone familiar with Image Tennis? It was a pretty regular thing on the old SPAM!!!!!!!! forums hosted by ChatBear.
Basically it's just like this, you take a random photo, and then people add/change/edit things on/too it. The person currently editing should say WIP so that everyone else knows someone is working on it, and that they have to wait. Only when the person has finished editing, the next person goes.

Check the volume settings of your targets (the func_doors), maybe you have set the movesound volume too high or something.
Hmmmm, Serious Sam VR. Except I don't have a Vive as I don't have the money to afford one. Fricker.
What not worked?
Hmmm, then it should work. Are you sure the RGB value of the blue color is actually 0 0 255 and not something like 0 0 254 or 0 1 255? Also make sure the source file of your texture is a bmp, png, tga or whatever but never jpg or gif, when you import it into Wally.
Ok.
Does the name of your texture start with the { character?

The blue color should be at index 255 in the color palette. You can do this in Wally.
Here's an example of a palette with the blue color at index 255 (the bottom right square)

Are you passing the .map file version of your level to the compile tools? Also make sure you run the tools in the correct order and only once: HLCSG is first, then HLBSP, HLVIS and finally HLRAD.
I don't think you'll need to mess with the settings.txt file. Make sure you have lights.rad file in your tools folder and check your compile log to make sure hlrad actually finds it.
The reason why those blue lights don't emit light is because they're not defined in the lights.rad file for reasons unknown to me. Simply add an entry for it yourself.

I was actually going to suggest starting with, say, 3, 4 mods...
Guess not.
Thank you for your service, Striker, I really wish I could play more, but alas.
That's a shame. I'd like to spend more time on your server, but I already play on one with friends.
Maybe it's time to say goodbye to vanilla and play some modded Minecraft, just for the sake of new things to discover and play with?

Why not go all out and choose a modpack to play?
Why would you not want to update? Just update!
Is it me or is that screenshot extremely dark? I can barely distinguish any details.It's a nighttime shot.
Here's the first edition of the resource pack:
Download (67 mb)
Updated the pack due to an error in the sounds.json file.

That requires all the contestants to be a server operator in order to place and edit command blocks. Not sure if that's ideal.
Sweet!
May I suggest a server resourcepack with custom paintings and perhaps some Half-Life sound effects? You can then use redstone and command blocks to set up a welcome message as well as play a sound effect. I know, there's probably some server plugin that does the exact same thing, but doing it this way doesn't require any plugins, it's just pure redstone. However, to set up the command blocks, you'll need operator status.
Here's the painting texture that we used on my TWHL Minecraft Server back in 2014:
And here's a server icon:

You need to turn the brush with the texture into an entity. Set the render mode to Solid and FX amount to 255.
Why not use a texturelight instead? That blue lab floor texture that you use in your first screenshot certainly isn't one.
And yes, you want to be using OpenGL, if you can.

You decompiled what? The bsp's? Not sure I like that.
Actually, zhlt.wad comes with VHLT, and the compile tools should automatically wadinclude it, even if you don't specifically tell it to wadinclude, as long as you keep the wad in the same place where the compile tools are located, which is the case by default.
There's no need to move zhlt.wad to the valve folder. Just let the tools wadinclude and you're done.

Oops, sorry.
