Please remove the old thread or ignore it. The information there is no longer relevant, as it all concerns the prerelease version.

Flat-Life 1.0 is here. The last major version. Bugfixes and minor changes will be related later, though.

Flat-Life is a singleplayer/multplayer goldsource mod turning the game to a 2D-ish platform shooter type game.

Bug: You can't see other players (MP).
I played 1on1 and I couldn't see my enemy and my enemy couldnt see me.
We could see the bullets when shooting though.

Hey man looks good but need a bit more work I think, buggy as hell, for example.. tunnels, sometimes I get stuck in the corner trying to swim up. Also when I die on the snowy bridge it reloads but the place is covered by something so I can't see my player then. Also, give more medkits :)
Posted 16 years ago2008-03-26 10:31:58 UTC Post #248042
A lot of bugfixing is up to the individual map-maker's, not the mod's own design. For instance, the player getting stuck on objects is entirely the fault of the author of the map.

Very good work, ChickenFist.

There, fixed all those bugs you guys found yesterday. I hope, not tested.
It's running on the server now though, hopefully we'll find out soon enough.

Patch download Just unzip in your half-life folder and overwrite everything!

flatlife.no-ip.biz:27015

Changes:

  1. Fixed bug with players turning invisible...
  2. Fixed (or rather bypassed) bug where jointeam menu wouldn't show up.

Skals: Wadinclude.

i told chicken to include the wad. looks like he didnt. dont blame me

Posted 16 years ago2008-03-26 13:37:15 UTC Post #248056
No, i said WADINCLUDE. Compile the wad into the bsp. Very easy to do with the Compilator, if you're still using it.

Very awesome, ChickenFist. I can't wait to see more maps for this.. in fact, I might even have a go at making one myself. ;)

Spent a few minutes playing with Skals. It's GREAT fun in multiplayer... incredible how old 2D top-down mode can be so entertaining.

Gonna map for it now.

saw, that's usually happens when either cg.dll, cgGL.dll, fmod.dll or devil.dll is missing. Are they all present in your half-life directory (not hl2d)?

Posted 16 years ago2008-03-28 15:41:40 UTC Post #248098
oh wow, none of them.... i checked all the subdirectories too. but i havent actually played half-life since i installed it on this computer... maybe that has something to do with it?
Posted 16 years ago2008-03-28 15:44:05 UTC Post #248099
Hm, don't think so, they're all shipped with Flat-Life.

Try redownloading 1.0 full and then the patch
