"city" skybox Created 15 years ago2009-07-17 15:53:37 UTC by DiscoStu

Has anyone seen the "city" skybox used in HL? It's in the .pak but I don't remember seeing it anywhere in game. Just curious.

It's included just for us developers
But i do think it's used in a few default CS maps.

That skybox is freakin horrible. It's ugly as hell.

It was used in the beta valve intro map, which was replaced by the AVI we all know and love. You can find it in the MV somewhere...
But that skybox is worse looking than the construction model.

MV... Map Vault? Gotta see that.

That's interesting, I had never seen that.

But is the sky there? I don't see it!

Edit:
Talking about ancient stuff, I just came across the Uplink Extended minimod in the Map Vault. But I haven't played the original one so I don't know what's different? Is there any way I can get that?

Also, a few implementation questions that are eating my mind:

1. How do you get a brush camera model to appear like it's always looking at you? Seen it in CS too and never worked out how to do that.

2. How could an entity be activated only when a momentary_rot_button reaches a certain position? As in, when you get the satellite dish to face the correct direction.

The first time I played Uplink Extended, it crashed.

That was also the last time. I should try it again.

1. I believe you make it a func_tank

Oooh that sounds interesting! I also wonder how didn't I think of using Impulse 106 on it. Thanks Huntey.

BRB - gonna impulse 106 it.

Yes, a func_tank with no bullets.

Remind me of impulse 106?

Impulse 106 returns entity name and class.
