That's liek, teh laemness.
It sounds like maybe you placed it inside a wall, although in all my time mapping I, have never encountered this, or even heard of anyone encountering it.
Oh... Wait, I got totally confused back there. Never mind about what I said. Yes, c3a2 is Lambda Core. For some reason that I can't possibly explain, I thought you were saying that the F-16 was in Lambda Core. 
Yup. 
I considered that he could have been being sarcastic ("Lambda Core" is set entirely underground), but decided it was worth being made the fool as long as nobody else was mistaken by it.
Yes, "Surface Tension" basically starts at the dam, although there's a small map before it, and it continues on all the way through some desert areas, the cliffside, and some military establishments, until you get to "Forget About Freeman!", which shortly takes you to the Lambda Complex.

No. Do what Dragon Fly said, but check the flag that disables the controls for it.
... No, it isn't. :

I'm steadily working on my chapter, and if it doesn't get released, I'm gonna be pissed. Really. Pissed. It's been some pretty hard, yet interesting work thus far, and I'm not about to see it all go to waste.
That's not to say I'd worry too much about that happening. I'm constantly in contact with The Hunter, and he appears to be working as diligently as any. If anything is dead, it's the rest of the team's inspiration to map. I swear, it doesn't look like anybody but me, Hunter, and ChickenFist have turned out anything new since 2005. That's the real problem, in my opinion.
So if necessary, reassign some of the positions, but for heavens sake, do not let the first mod team I've worked with give up.
And coldfeet, your position was taken over by ChickenFist long ago. I don't think it's needed unless he too dies on us (for the second time.)

As far as I know, you use the speaker entity to play them, and whatever is spoken is set up in sentences.txt, just like you use scripted_sentences. If I remember correctly, the speaker sounds are all in the VOX folder in the PAK or GCF file.
Look here for more info.
And remember, you can't distribute your sentences.txt with a multiplayer map, because it'll override the one that's already there, and could mess some stuff up. For these circumstances, I'd suggest setting up a bunch of ambient_generics and a multi_manager to play them in order. That way, it can be localized too.

Oooh... Stupit me, Hunter. Stupit me.
That's not funny.
Nice, Tawnos.
And Luke, I'd have to agree with you wholeheartedly.

He actually has a pretty high end laptop, but he's running Vista, which slows it down significantly. So, what he really needs to do is downgrade. 
There is a 0% chance of me submitting a map for this. Sorry for the empty promise early on. I had some really great ideas for this, but I never took the initiative to bring them alive. Oh well.

50 to 75, I'd say.
Ha.
No Dave, you suck. And I wouldn't exactly call software pirating stealing if you never could have afforded the software in the first place. That's my uneducated opinion, anyway. Plus, it's my knowledge that nobody outside of schools or large companies actually owns a legit copy of Photoshop. 
I'd recommend decompiling that map and using whatever fragmented brushwork that's still there as a template, and then build yours from scratch around it. Don't stick to the original design too closely, because you'll just end up with off-grid vertexes.
If you do it this way, not only will you feel better about actually having made it yourself, but you won't have to credit anyone else for their prefab.

m0p, Those pictures could be good, but you either have a really crappy camera, or it's just on the wrong settings. :
I dunno, as trivial as it sounds, he seemed pretty upset. He's also doing modeling exclusively right now, so TWHL probably doesn't have too much to offer for that.
Indeed it has.
I meant he got owned because he couldn't even find a site that would successfully host an image that big.
Oh, I forgot to mention, there's also a fair amount of tree models in the Counter-Strike GCF.

You can't delete threads on your own here, and you can't act like an asshole and upload huge BMP's on the nets or you'll get owned.

Yay, reviving this crap thread.
I'm really starting to agree with Orpheus about having general map screens under 80 KB (I just tried it out with PSP 10, and it can work amazingly well), but when an image needs to have readable text, like in desktop screens, I believe this is the wrong approach to have. For those circumstances, I'd go for a little under 150 KB.

Right-o.
My keyboard, of which I am particularly proud of.
Random crap atop my desk.
My cat, an obvious staple of my desk.
An Mx518, far 1337er than any Mx510, and my favorite little mousepad from [url=]http://www.mygamecontroller.com/]My-Game Controller[/url].

I don't get it, what's wrong with the screen I posted? It's under 150kb, and it shows absolutely no compression, it's just resized.

I love you, Kasp, and Daub. You two have saved my thread, for the time being. 
I wish you guys would stop ruining my thread more than it already is. It's pathetic, really.
I wouldn't use sprites to make shrubbery and plants, unless it's for really small things like weeds and grassy patches. They look really horrible for large objects, and we don't live in the Doom era any more, so it's a bit strange to see them. Instead, I'd use models for plants, which are actually quite easy to find, unlike sprites.
So, I'd tell you to check out DoenerKing for a good source of models, but it seems that website is under construction or something. Since there's not too many other options at the moment, I'd recommend you check out Day of Defeat's GCF, as it has a ton of plants in it.

Hi rowley! Nice to have you back!
I agree that headphones can offer much better sound quality, and a much better experience overall, but I'm still not inclined to use them. For one thing, they block everything out around me, so I can't tell if somebody is trying to talk to me or get my attention. I used to use them exclusively (that's all I had), but they hurt my ears after an hour or two, and nobody else could listen to stuff if I needed them to, so it was a real pain.
I now use them occasionally, like when it's really late and I don't want to wake anybody up, but I still find my surround sound system to be superior for my needs.

OMG LIKE HOW U BECOM A ANIME KID??!
Mmmm, I see. Well, whatever.
Yes, I'm pretty sure it has to be "Red: 0, Green: 0, Blue: 255" for it to work. At least, that's how I've always done it and seen it done.
Yes, although you do have the option of changing the background color in HLMV, which would make it far easier to distinguish the the black in the model from the background.
And, you know, nothing is better than seeing it in a map.

Same.
env_glue_gun, you mean?
Har?
Well, not always. Some are made of plastic, and others of metal.
That's why you go to them, not set your own up... :
Not that I've actually been to one.
Now, BACK TO DISCUSSION OF DESKS, PLEASE.

espen, I was actually referring to the fact that I had already posted one of those links, and the other you put there was basically the same thing, just with more simplistic instructions. No problem with that, though.
r j00 blind?!?!? :
Yeah, or a laptop...
You use an ambient_generic.
And, as Hunter stated, 7.1 goes to eleven.
