npc_zombies Created 17 years ago2007-02-18 16:10:08 UTC by vipervma

I am fairly new to hl2dm mapping. I have a map I am working on and I want to put zombies in it and nomatter what map I put them in it will not run. I also can't get any npc to move or shoot at you or nothing but stand there. I have used relationship and templates till I am sick of them and nothing happens. Is something missing in my hammer program or what.

Have you read Andys In the beginning Part 6 tutorial?

I know thats for HL1 and not even for DM.. but it gives you a general idea of how to get your NCPs to do stuff!

I thought you couldn't have proper NPC's in DM?

I would have though that aswell :

I know the antlions and the vortigaunts work in dm just fine I have them in my map DM_Monster_Mobile_Home. But I can't get any other npc's to work like there suppose to.

I'd guess the AI is too intensive for it to be applied to MP netcode well; therefore AI won't work in MP for things like zombies or other NPCs. I'd just stay away from NPC characters in Multiplayer maps.
