i need less detailed versions of the millertry aircraft.

the plaster wall is being remade.
it`s surposed to be metal for a train but doesn`t look right.
the train doors miss a door handle because as on many trains there will be a button to the left or right of the door.
what of my signal lights?
and the track_mono

i am more happy with the halflifeb.wad as the textures don`t look wrong when used in maps.

it has too...the train gets to a certain point and has to stop and wait for retrigger.
the timeing depends on if the player has cleared the bridge or not.

in half life 1 mapping hints and tips Post #134835
as i am doing certain things in combinations for the 1st time(like stuff the scientists do around the labs) i only do vis in final version and after i added new areas but not when i`m doing things so the scientist does stuff around the lab as i am oftern testing every few min there.
on my current single player map even fast vis takes some time.

when people are doing large tips (like captain p) it would be nice if they put the basic html code in ( <p>,</p> and <br>) but i`ll do the links and fonts and stuff.
(captain p don`t rewrite your tips as i am already adding the needed html)
