It's taken you this long to be scared?
Just don't ever forget this! It sux when you downloaded a map to see that the author didn't include the required media.It also sucks when they give too much, right haz?
Try to delete as much as you can (a lesson I've learnt now) so that the download isn't too big.
Yeah, that'd be a copyright issue halfhack, considering the Half-Life bsp's are Valve's work.
Yeah they do.
I read the Hammer help file and tried it. Very handy indeed.

You might have mixed up some of the settings in Hammer. Take a look again and take a look at your compile log as papacubanlover said.
Hey, welcome back Marlborometal, long time no see!
Or they might chuck a Star Wars and do some prequels!
That was indeed a stupid response. Don't think he'll be around much anymore...
Goes to the Hammer manual because both suggestions from Rabid didn't work.
I'd go for a better host if I were you. I was with them for a short time but left because of the hotlinking stuff.

I'm getting 404 errors Rabid.
Make sure your pak0.pak file is unpacked too, otherwise the models wont work.
Yeah, it's a mixture of Windows and Linux in case any of you guys we're wondering.
Word processing?? WTF? If you mean a paper-weight then...
And you're gonna use which program? Windows Sound Recorder? Pretty crap.
It's a shame that's for sure 
Meh, we don't need to panic.
Not yet anyway...

lol! I've done this before too. I did it with heaps more tanks than you used. It's strange too, once the tanks start piling on top of each other, some just go shooting in the air for no reason. It's fun after you blow them and they hit innocent civilians! 
Slaps head
And you forgot the BIG one:
"Hey, catch me later I'll buy you a beer!"
WILL GORDON GET THE BEER?

lol! Sooooooorrrrrrrrry!
Aren't they redoing the original Half-Life in the Source engine? If they're doing that then I'm sure they'll convert Opposing Force and Blue Shift over as well. If not then I'm sure some Mod team will.
Env_fade. Fiddle around with the settings to get different colours. You can also set how long it takes and how long the fade lasts. You can also trigger it.
What does the compile log say? Did you use the 'Check for Problems' tool?
If you find a freewebhost that allows FTP uploads then no.
Zoner's Tools replace the old 'q' tools (qbsp, qrad, etc).

those aussies live down under, strange to have a burning sun in the winter and snow in the summer.How bout Sun in Summer, Sun in Winter, Sun in Autumn & Sun in Spring?
There's actually a drought going on where I live. Suprisingly it's in the surburbs that surround Sydney (built up, densly populated). Our main dam has fallen below 50% capacity so we're all on mandatory water restrictions.
Try it and see! Experiment you may get it.
= InsanityI would tend to agree ministeve.
If you make some custom textures, make a copy of ones that actually work. More often than not you'll get some strange error message in Half-Life if you try to use your custom sky texture. When you're satisfied with the results, save your custom ones over the ones you copyed. This will fix that problem.

Do the two level align up properly? The change has to be perfect otherwise you'll get lodged in a wall or some other weird effect.
On the texture application tool, make sure 'Lift and Select' is selected. Choose the texture you want, then right click on the brush that you want the texture to appear. If you left click, you can adjust the scale as well as the position.

To record for Half-Life? Not really. Goldwave will do since Half-Life's sound requirements are quite poor.
A skybox will make r_speeds go up because the engine is rendering more! Don't use sky boxes. If you need a sky, there are ways to do it. Click here.
I think haz's suggestion is the only way to get around it. Of course you could wait till Half-Life 2...
Texture lighting looks a lot better but it's less flexable. I would definately learn how to use it.
When you put the WAD files in, click Apply, then OK and exit Hammer. Restart and see if that works.
Wouldn't that lower the lighting for the whole map?
What do you mean by 'loading' it? Through the custom game menu correct? Have you got the latest Half-Life version?
I wasn't refering to you blue. The post I was refering to was deleted.
It means average amount per day, according to how long you've been a member.
Yes. In all our backyards. I even have a pet Koala. 
What the hell is going wrong with TWHL? Has it turned into Spam Central or something??
You've either carved, or VM incorrectly. Use the 'Check For Problems' tool.
You need an info_player_start somewhere yes, but not a Health Charger.
Eh? What about this?
Making a Real FenceThis would allow bullets to pass and block players going through.
You might have noticed that in some areas in Half-Life, there are fences that the player can shoot through. It's a simple idea, but it requires a little trick to set up.
You will notice that some entities, including the monster_generic ones that are in the example map as holograms, have a flag called Not Solid that allows you to let the player to walk through them. This has obvious uses, such as... well... for making a hologram. But it won't work for fences, because, firstly, func_wall entites don't have a Not Solid flag, and even if they did, the player would be able to move though as well as bullets. But there is a way round this problem.
It just so happens that func_illusionary was designed to be, um, illusionary, so it's basically a non-solid func_wall, and can be made to display masked textures in the same way as a normal func_wall. Then, to stop the player moving though, you can simply create a 'clip' brush - Select the texture called 'clip', and create a brush. This stops the player moving through, but not bullets... and not monsters. To stop the monsters, create another brush with some texture other than 'clip', and bind it to a func_monsterclip entity. Place all three brushes over each other, and you have a 'real' fence!
I would suggest (and I'm sure that most here will too) to create the brushes individual without carving. It may be a little more time consuming, but worth it at the end when there's no errors 
The tutorial on fences should help you. Find it Here.
