I do! My part looks like it's going to be similar to yours, only underground. Great work, Unbreakable! Perhaps you could point me to a tutorial on how you get those lights to do that (the spotlight effect) or give me some hints?

Yeah, actually I tried it for the first time on this map, and was surprised at the effect, and how well they looked, I'll make an example map.
And yeah the grunts where reskinned by me.. so if you want to use them let me know hunter.

right i am trying to make a cliff face with the clipping tool but it keeps on telling me that when i am done it is a 'invalid object' what should i do? : 
Posted 19 years ago2005-04-16 16:16:21 UTC
Post #104363
delete it and start again.. its the same thing as what u did with the pillar... for christs sake. learn from your mistakes. dont keep doin them and ALWAYS Alt + P before compile.
You need to make sure that you clip it cleanly, try to avoid too many clip lines crossing over or they will become too small, too many and inevitably, an invalid object.

Don't worry Killer, it's a lot to learn. At least you're mapping, just keep doing it, the experience will come!
I dusted off my version yesterday and added a few sexy things, like lights and sprites and some supports to make the place look a little more interesting.
2 questions:
How do I post screenshots in these forums like Unbreakable?
And where is a good place to get photorealistic textures, or at least ones that look as sexy as yours do, MuzzleFlash? I'm stuck with the original Half-Life ones, and they aren't as nice.

Click the question mark---beside the smilies..
Muzzle Flash, I have no idea which of those textures I've downloaded, just download the ones that look like good city textures(look at the screenies) are in it, because thats what I did..
I am almost complete of 3/6 maps..
Heres two pics of hs5b_beta:
And heres two pics of hs5a_beta:
By the way Killer, I got a cool half-life cliff you may be able to use.. If you need a really big HL cliff?...

Shit dude, its hard to see what textures you used. Can you send me the rmf, so i can make my part in the same kind of atmosphere as yours? Because, out parts are both in a city, and the city should be the same.
Posted 19 years ago2005-04-18 13:51:31 UTC
Post #104659
OK, sounds good... I'll send you just the rmf though.. But there will be some missing textures.. plus these are just beta's and the first one is'nt done yet. But I'll send the rmf.. and you can get a much clearer idea.

Allright. I started rebuilding my part yesterday. In fact, complete restyle should be the perfect word for this.
As you might know, my whole part will be cinematic sequence, meaning you'll see this map through a trigger_camera. The camera start in front of Gordon Freemans appartment, then the camera goes inside, down the hall, to the elevators. Then it'll ride the elevator to floor i-dont-know-yet. The camera exits the elevator down the hall until it stops in front of Gordon Freemans room... More will come later.
Quick note: I got rid of the Poke646 textures for the inside look of Gordon's appartment. I am now using the textures from de_morningstar. These are much better.

Unbreakable, i still don't have the rmf. I need it as a reference for my city part.
Also, i made small mistake. Let me quote myself:
"As you might know, my whole part will be cinematic sequence, meaning you'll see this map through a trigger_camera."
Not true. Only the last part of the map will be playable. After Gordon has left his room to get armed and packed, the player will take control of him when he exits his apartment, ready to go to Barney's house, and that should be in Unbreakable's part.
The Hunter: Correct me if im wrong, or if you have other plans, tell me!

Muzzleflash, your doing freemans apartment building, are you not? Do I start it outside of hisa building, or what?

i believe the plan was that the end of muzzleflash's part would be playable, player enters an alley in between two houses <START hs2a_beta> get out of the alley, into the city and tyhen try to find barney.

By the way for the cool light effect, I used a trigger_inout entity, with two larger sprites it would trigger on and off. (on when entering, off when leaving.) Just thought you guys would like to know that.

Uuh, right. Well, just send me your rmf asap. Im mapping the inside of Gordons appartment now, which is going smooth.
And yeah, my part ends in an ally and there will be a changelevel to your city part.

okay heres the plan for may.
I want (by the end of may) for everyone to have the basic structure of their map. I want a playable beta .bsp from everyone. After that, We'll compare the ends of previous maps to the starts of next maps and make sure they all join cleanly...
After that, we'll work on detail/triggering.
There should be no aliens until chapter 4 and by the time player gets to chapter 6, the human_grunts will have been overpowered and slaughtered by aliens.
I need an actor to play G-man. My m8 can do it.. okay-ish but i could really use someone better.

End of May, check. I can do that. But don't try to push it up sooner please, I'm really fucking busy right now. I am working on my final project for programming, we are making a Mortal Kombat-esque fighting game, and I'm in the middle of making a model for him. I'll be sure to post a few pics of him when he's done for you all to see, I'm very proud of the current progress.
Not to mention Physics and Calculus tests happening sparatically all over. I am done with school May 19, and will have a lot more time to map starting then.
