Stop all the voting! We can't be number 1! You realize what that would do?! Everyone would want a good mapping site and that means we would get loads of spam from tons of noobs!!!

Sooo, I should make about half of the lights entites? Cant hange buildings to enties though, vis sees right through those.

Where is that?! Ive heard about them but Ive never actually seen them!

Another incredibly sick way to die, and painful too!

You are buried into the ground with only your head sticking out while a steam roller crushes your head at 1 mph. Also, you are facing the steam roller so your chin and nose and everything that pokes out is crushed in extreme pain first, youch.

Your calling m sick and your avatar is a pink quirrel wih its eye coming out and stuck through the branch!

YEP! I made that up all by meself! I feel so happy! But hey, thats a pretty bad way to die, so I posted it.

So you are allied with Xen in half Life 2?! Awesome! Anyway, they are called pit drones in Sven Co-opand thats what I based it off of.

Did you ever download de_full_city? If so, did you go into the apartment? If so, that was all carved, possibly the problem?

I just have a big imagination

I am trying to remake de_full_city real quick so that I can run vis this time, but I always get the max leafs error, even when block off parts of the map and I'm thinking, could leafs be lowered by taking away lights?

THAT is the worst way to die.

Have someone break into your home, point a gun at you, tie you up, take all your stuff, then force you to watch him slowly kill your who family right before your eyes and listening to them suffer, then pulls out a knife and slowly hacks at your legs, not cutting them off but seriously injuring them. Finally after he lest you go, you call the cop but they cant find him, they start a search and ou go straight to the hospital, soon you find out that your legs will have to be amputated and you need a wheelchair. A few days after being released from the hospital you fall down a hill and out of your wheelchair into a rocky ditch where you are stabbed and slowly bleed to death by rocks, The murderer of your family is never caught.

Fast walker? You mean pit drones?

Houndeye?

The splash screen for POV was made by the asame guy, and it uses the same picture of the alien slave, but I still think this looks more realistic.

Atom is the owner of the site, Andy just watched over it.

You get both snarks AND chumtoads in Point of View, only chumtaods are stronger and smarter

I saw a tutorial from the guy who made the picture, he actually drew that picture from scratch and enhanced it with photoshop, this guys an artist man.

Or there should be, steam single player games take forevr on map changes where as WON take about 2 seconds.

By saying it looks relaitsic I'm saying it looks like a photo of an actual alien slave. Its that good. I dunno zeeba, I thought the collar looked pretty metalic, but they never say what they are made of anyway.

I told the guy he souldnt rip off other users names if that helps.

Dont care about the won/steam deal. Life Gear is a WON game, its not online so it wont interfere with anything, unless you got stupid and decided to delete your original folder.

Yeah, ok, so its an alien slave from Xen, Don't care. Yeah, so its a lot like the splash screen of Point of View, but it was made by the same guy. Yeah... but still, IT LOOKS SO FRIGGIN REALISTIC!!!!!!!

Who has more power over TWHL? 7th Monkey, or Andy? Something I have always pondered

Can't, no new coding, sorry.

This mod is gonna be a laugh

Its not supposed to be funny, its a serious mod.

BECAUSE SCOPING IS FOR THE WEAK!

Umm.. will setting it to constant glow make it like most of the lights in tfc and half life?

How do I set up lights so that they include a glow sprite with them that gets dimmer the further away you are from it?

Stink, I meant to put this thread in the mods forum, somone needs to move this thread. Anyway, heres the grenade launcher:

Almost every weapon you get in Life gear will be needed to solve puzzles or stuff like that. No, MOP, this will not be a noob style mod. But remeber, no new coding, so even though its a grenade launcher it will still be thrown as far as a normal grande... Most of the Half Life weapons wont be in this game either. Like... the hornet gun and probably not even the shotgun. No gluon gun either, so you wont b able to blast your way through everything.

Thinking about having a grenade launcher for grandes, tell me waht you think

Weapon models I have chosen so far:
Silenced USP (9mm handgun)
http://skinshack.counter-strike.net/images/large/socomlg.jpg
357 Magnum
http://skinshack.counter-strike.net/images/ragebull.jpg
Knife (crowbar)
http://static.4players.de/counterstrike/CSDownload/94/57/2578-vollbild.jpg
Dual silenced tmps (9mmAR, ar grenades are not in Life Gear so it wont get in the way)
http://static.4players.de/counterstrike/CSDownload/ff/14/1851-preview.jpg
Plastic Explosives (satchel charges)

I am making a mod for Half Life called Life gear. Life Gear is a stealth mod that requires you to think before you shoot. It is also loaded with puzzles for all you people who like a challange rather than running down a hall shooting people. Here's the whole list of stuff in Life Gear:
-Stealth gameplay, if your caught you'll soon be surrounded by enemies
-Weapon models and music to get you into the stealth state of mind, music doesn't get repetive or annoying after playing a long time with it! (silenced weapons models do not act silenced to enemies who are triggered by hearing you, only the silenced sniper rifle (crossbow) is completely noiseless)
-Boss fights
-Working security cameras, some that you can even blow up.
-Visible feild of vision for security cameras
-Tons of triggers, but no new code
-Full length mod, plan to have at least 10 fairly large maps of gameplay

The story:
A business building in some city somewhere, disquised as a real estate company, has begun research on making a machine that can mechanically generate controlled Xen lifeforms. Controlled, at least, to the people who built the machine. This research has been dubbed The Lifeform Project. You, a member of an elite group of White Ops, have just been given insider info on the project and also, a mission to intrude the building, find the source of the Lifeform Project plus anything else related to it, and destroy them. Gameplay starts on the building's roof. For story purposes you start on the roof because the main entrance is too heavily guarded. or gameplay purposes... its more fun.

Screenshots of weapon models and gameplay soon to come.
Game is being made with Spirit, and will require you to still have old WON version of Half Life, as it will not be made for Steam.

OK I'll look for it thanks. Is there a way to make visible bullets?

Happens somtimes, copy your whole map and paste it into a new one and save it with the same name. Then check for problems again. The blocks that didnt exists shouldnt show up as problems anymore.

Didnt change anythin about the ground from the defaults. Must be the nodes

But if you don't like the ida, thats ok. Its a mere minigame.

Woah woah! you can make bullet time with spirit?! I was going to use amx. How do you use spirit for bullet time?

Well that must be it.

Yes it is, Ive only been takling about it for the past week, now, do you know how to make a moving logo?

All right, check this and tell me how you like the idea. Instead of a training map for Life Gear I'm going to have a mini game where you are Neo and you fight off as many Smiths as you can. More smiths will come after you the further you are in the game. I'll try to set up a bullet time system. Thought of this late at night so if it souns really weird, sorry.

Youve only been here 77 days!

You know, Ministeve? That is a horribly doctered picture.

Im sure it was

What program is used to make the titles movies in the splash screens of certain mods? I really want to have a moving title for Life Gear.

Oh, we can go with half life MOD stuff too?!
Still, Nihilanth rules all.
Good guy: The crazy blobby people from toonrun in Sven coop

This is a func_wall, of one block, splitting the face of a one block world brush. Doesnt that sound a little weird to you? To anybody?

I thought you couldn't get face splitting with entities. Is this possible? Because in a map of Life Gear there has been major face splitting coming from a func_wall. Well at least I'm pretty sure its coming from it. I checked and nothing else matched.

I thinjk the actual significance of the dam to the sotry is that it connects the Lambda facility to Black Mesa. (Did anyone ever notice that Black Mesa is rediculously huge?!)
