It's not the weapons man, I've already parented a bunch of crap to the gun, a trigger_hurt, an env_shake and some other crap, but the path_tracks won't parent to the gun. I tried parenting them to a brush but that didn't seem to work either.

Thanks for moving my topic without helping me with it (Y).

I've got a map where a crow is flying around. First it just flies around in a kind of a circle around the map but I've got an AK47 that generates EnableAlternatePath on one of the tracks in the cycle when OnPlayerPickup happens.

So far this works, when I pick up the AK47 the crow finishes his current cycle and then derives on to the new path, however, all of the path_track entities that I parented to the AK47 end up getting compiled into the origin of the map. I tried parenting them to a func_rotating that I then parented to the AK47 but still the paths end up being in the origin of the map at height 0... what can I do?

Wrong forum. Moved.

I submitted mine the second day of the competition... it's shit though because there's nothing to work my idea on... oh well... at least its not surreal like i was going to make it...

prefabs are great! I often use prefabs for things I dont know how to make in HL or CS so then I learn something for next time! Just recently I used an elevator prefab in a map, and know I've made a transporting device which uses an env_shake, and I actually know how the env_shake works!

CS 1.6 map created with hammer and compiled with the batch compiler.

I made loads of func_walls to decrease compiletime and I have a func_pendulum, in case that changes anything.zw

This may be harmless, and if no strange side effects are occurring, then
it can safely be ignored. However, if your map starts exhibiting strange
or obscure errors, consider this as suspect.

no it never worked, only for source which doesnt work on my computer anymore btw

I cant run from hammer if thats what u mean i use the batch compiler

wow man this rad is gonna take hours upon hours.. its STILL compiling (not even 10% yet)

how do you do fast rad?

I have gotten an error which terminates CS, this is what I did.

1: Built a map (3 weeks)
2: Compiled without Vis or Rad (very short compared to with Vis and Rad)
3: Started Counter-Strike through Steam (some minutes)
4: Entered into console: "map cs_timevilla" - this starts a localgame with that map.

after the previous steps the game started to load but then an unexpected 'Fatal Error' occured stating: 'ED_PraseEntity: closing brace without data'

Click OK > Everything shuts down
Click X > Everything shuts down

Any help will be appreciated, Thanks in advance.

http://twhl.co.za/mapvault_map.php?id=3801

I have made a map which took me three weeks, and now as I compile it for the final time it has an error which I cannot fix, below is a link to my map's RMF file and I hope that somebody will be able to resolve the issue.

oh thanks dorian, turns out the door was bad

i knew you guys would just point me to some wierd direction

oh im sorry i didnt specify:

this is for a map and the doors have to restart per round. (CS)
thanks for trying lets see if anybody can help

Ive got a couple of door that are supposed to open when X seconds in the round are up, however I dont know how please give me full instructions on how I can achieve this

I have no idea what any of you are trying to say to help me :

where is it supposed to go?

I know this is possible for source, but is this possible for cs 1.6? sorry I might be askin silly questions, but Im trying to make a map with random teleport destinations, because then I can have one teleporter that teleports you to a different room than the next person that goes on it!
