Looks nice, decently different from HL? itself. The lighting does look to be a little dark from the shots, but that could be the gamma (hint: adjust gamma in future, not brightness; it's different, and the gamma is what makes it seem brighter in-game).

Urban, sympathies. I don't back up very often, but I am extremely careful and my PCs have been virus-free for years (except for silly start.exes in cracks, etc., heh). Moral: if you don't back up, know a decent amount and be watchful.

That'll be a worm. Set the clock back a day when it happens and then go to Windows Update and download stuff. You might need to set it back further if you're on dial-up, or get properly-downloadable stuff put on a CD for you.

Never connect a Windoze PC to the 'net without a firewall.

Uh, yes it will, the pieces would fall. Anyway, I'm sure one of those ways will do the trick for shooter; you might also use a func_train if you wanted a moving-in-one-piece way with greater control over where it ended up.

He was only abbreviating the entity type, that wasn't the entity's name.

gordonf, you've obviously made a mistake then. Check everything you've done against that tutorial. Try remaking the changelevel. Maybe check the console for errors, too.

in trigger_push question Post #115801
You need to change the angles ? it'll push horizontally by default. Try putting -90 0 0 for Pitch Yaw Roll (match the numbers to the order of the PYR in Hammer, I think that's in a strange order).

Also, you might need to have the player fall slightly in order to be pushed vertically, i.e. having the area on which they walk to get pushed one unit lower than the bit they were on before, and then putting a one unit func_illusionary on top to make the floor look flat.

Nah, that's been acceptable in file or folder names since DOS days; spaces and dots, however, haven't. Important thing is, never use spaces or, well, any wierd characters. Underscores, letters, and numbers.

Yes, I read; spaces in map names are also a problem which can cause similar issues. Always avoid spaces when doing anything in mapping: entity names, file names, etc. I'd guess '.' in a place other than between the filename and extension could cause a problem too, as in your folder there.
