This is odd... I was fooling around in a HL mod I made (Different models), and I decided to play the final level (c5a1) I noclipped to the outside of the tram, and jumped into the portal from there. I saw a short camera scene with Gman and the player.mdl model, when I was used to blackness. Intriuged, I quickloaded the game, and crouch jumped into the portal. same thing. So, I went to vanila HL and tested this. nothing. THEN, it occured to me to have the flashlight on. the scene showed up. That's completly new to me, and I thought perhaps not all of you guys knew. Try it!
For those who still map for HLDM, I found the following by messing around in the SP maps while on a LAN server.
1. Barnacles, (the apache, can't remember plural for it), turrets,sitting scientists, and dead monsters can be placed in a HLDM map.
2. Scripted sequences do not fire all the time. (I ran across the bridge that gets destroyed in surface tension :D)
3. It's fun to just run around the SP maps when you're insanely bored.
For those HLDM mappers who did'nt know about the monsters, I hope I gave you inspiration.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Enjoyable Kwanza, and peace on earth and goodwill towards men. Exept when they're infected with a mutated rabies virus, controlled by a parasitic alien, or are a brain-washed cyborg.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TWHL!!!!!
