Cheers for that seventh.

What do you mean by again?
And was that "you suck" in the shoutBOX directed at me IMEC?
If so why?
And if it was give me a break I was only mentioning this in case there was a way around it.

I don't know about you, but most of the time I like steam, constant updates, news, etc etc etc .
However the other day my phone line was disconnected temporarily and I couldn't access a damn thing through steam. It said there was no login information on my computer, so I couldn't even access the offline mode.
This is annoying because I registered a Valve product I already owned on CD and it wouldn't even let me play that.
I only mention this because I believe if you purchase something you should be able to use it all the time, connection or no connection.
Let me know what you think. (or is it my lack of knowledge that is the problem)

If it is no help then sorry i'm new to all this editing stuff.

I was playing about with the different entities in source, just to get an idea of how things work. Anyway the end result turnd out to be quite funny. Take a look, the downloads only 10 seconds with dsl 512k

Use HL2DM for best results.
Oh and sometimes the chain of events stop so just load it up again if it does. Cheers

Isnt it comp number 12, unless I cant count. + Can I enter a source map for Half Life 2 deathmatch, or is it just the original engine?
Im a bit thick u see.

Just run the game from your play games menu once after the update and then loading your levels through hammer should be fine. Dont hold me to this but I had the same error and it went away after I had loaded the actual game.

Updated and looking better.

I think this map is finished now, I have tested it with bots and it works better than I thought it would.

If there are any more suggestions for improvments I will add them to the map (within reason. still new to mapping)

My first CS Source map so any comments or suggestions to make it better would be a great help.

Im having the same problem. How Would I fix this?

[quote]Also I cant seem to get the tutorial from the snarkpit, which i bet anwsers this. (sods law)[quote/]

My noob roots really coming through now. thanks for that Anthony I can stop wasting my time trying to achieve the unachievable. I dont remember reading anything saying that in the tuts though.

OK first of all i have been mapping for HL2DM for 3 days now and got a map on the go so im still in the learning stages. I have used several tuts off this site and they have been very helpful.
My problem is getting multiple cameras and screens. I have read the tut on cameras and the amount of qustions on this in the forum suprises me(so heres another one). Every time I put a 2nd camera in and give it a different name from the 1st and apply this to my func_monitor entity I get the image from the 1st camera on both monitors.
Any ideas anyone or am I missing somthing?
Also I cant seem to get the tutorial from the snarkpit, which i bet anwsers this. (sods law)

P.S joined today just to ask this qustion, its driving me crazy.
