Upload it into the unfinished stuff vault and link this topic to it. I'm sure alot of people will help you. I'll help you too, if you'd like. 
Decals can be used as textures. However they look pretty ugly as the white background turns black in-game.
Yes. Always give the creators credit for their work. You may use their textures as long as you don't charge any money. Even better, e-mail and tell them that you want to use their textures. I'm sure most will give you permission. Most want you to use their textures, you see.

Did that! And it worked. 
As a christmas present to TWHL, I'll add how to modify game strings too. But not until 24.12 
(What's a string???)
In the meny, next to the new game button there's a line saying "start a new game" That's a string. You could change that into "Begin a new adventure".

I'm on the site pretty often and I don't approve of spamming on the mapping forum or flaming in general. I could watch over the forums, if it's ok.
Got it working. Thanks.
Hint to someone who wants to create a weapon:
Try retexture it first.

Hmm, you're right. BTW who are you?
How do I make on of those Xen Heal pools?
Correct Restrictions: 320x200, BMP, 256 colors
Sorry...
Sorry...
Ok. Found it out:
Find a picture you want:
Restrictions:
320x240 256 colors BMP. Name it Logo.bmp
Next Get qlumpy which was included in the HL SDK SDK/Texture Wad Tools. Then get cached.ls (Note it's LS). That's a script for qlumpy and can be found in SDK/SHELL. Now it's get a bit buggy. qlumpy is an old dos program and it caused trouble on my XP Professional.
But run Command prompt and you'll be fine.
Place both cached.ls and qlumpy on C:
Create the following folder system: C:quivermoddirgfxshell and place the logo.bmp there in shell.
Create the folder C:moddir and place a already existing cached.wad
there because qlumpy can't create wads!!! Copy Hl's or create a new one with Wally.
How to make folders? Right-click on empty space inside a drive (ex. C:)
and select New/folder and rename it.
Use command prompt and write:
C:qlumpy cached.ls
Then get the Wad in moddir and put it in the mod directory of your choice.
Wasn't so hard?
Still problems? E-mail me and I'll help.

Well, where can we get this spirit?
As long as it's not included in the original installation of HL, or the disks it came with, we can't have a competition about it. Everybody HAS TO HAVE Access to the same resources. IT HAS TO BE THAT WAY!!!
How do you make bold font?

I don't see the point in Devil May Cry. Just reading the story was enough to tell me that this game wasn't my style. B????h.... Nice devil, good girl, fights evil... blah,blah,blah, wins the day, saves the planet, whatever.
No spamming in the mapping forum, remember? 
Ok It's the Cached.wad file. There's two files in it. CONBACK and LOADING. However Wally couldn't open these. But I'm looking into it but Andy won't be able to post or update any new tutorials until next year.
I'll just post them here in this tread until then.
I'm working on it....
Honestly

I'm going to take a look and update the tut if necessary. 
I'm using enter1.spr for a teleporter. Set it's rendering to glow, frame rate to 10 and scale to 1. The teleporter begins to shrink as you get closer to it in-game and enlarges when you back off. How can I keep it's size constant?
I'll play any game al long as it has good story or gameplay. Graphics isn't that important.

Might come up a while after christmas.
Try the func_train tutorials. I must admit I'm no expert on them. But it's possible and I'm sure it said something about them there.
Well Everyone has to be able to enter the competetion. And how many guys have Spirit, blueshift or opfor?
Have the console down while the map loads. It usually comes up a message there when something's out of order.
Could we the compiling report, please?
CS map comp??? Here? Then it would be more like TWCS.
No offence, but you're really limited in CS. I quit mapping for it. I wanted to create some fun so I began to experiment i HL.
But CS is meant for MP. So the judging would be pretty plain in the end and there would just be some ways here and there. Then a bomb site or some hostages. Not really a challenge which the competitions are meant to be.

STEAM's console stinks.
I went on LAN today. 8 hours of CS and I'll NEVER PLAY THAT SH!T AGAIN.
Making a new weapon in HL is more difficult than it sounds.
Reasons?
1. HL models needs to be simple. Otherwise the engine can't handle them.
2. They need to fit exactly into the holders hands.
3. They must be coded properly. Think of a gun where the bullets come out 3 inches above the chassi.
4. It's time consuming to make a good model.
5. You need two models for each weapon. One for the world which will be seen from other players and one which the player will hold in 3D.
And there's more, but I don't want to spoil your gun-making.
Don't give up.

You're going to have to recompile the dlls, After rewiting the cpps, well... HAVE FUN!!!
SW JK2: Jedi Academi rules them all!!!
YES!!! I got it working.
It's all the path's fault. It must be sound/ambience/beamstart1.wav
It's all the path's fault. It must be sound/ambience/beamstart1.wav
Could Capital letters be causing this? D:/HL
Here is the path were the file is but can't be found:
D:/HL/sm/sound/debris/beamstart1.wav
Here is the path were the file is but can't be found:
D:/HL/sm/sound/debris/beamstart1.wav
OK I got the file exported successfully but then I target it in worldcraft with the ambient_generic and when I the test the map it gives me a warning. The map begins to load but the sound isn't found and the processing... comes up and tries to do something for eternity.
What could be wrong?

NOOOO!!! A CONSOLE FANATIC IS A GUY WHO KNOWS EVERY CONSOLE COMMAND THERE IS!!! AND USES THEM ALL TOO!!!
I didn't mean nintendos and the like... 
I meant this: d:hlhl.exe -console
Don't tell me you don't know what it is.

This thread can't die!!! Anybody a console fanatic here?
Everytime I try to export a sound from the pac0.pac the sound end up as a 0 kb file and unplayable. I'm using Wally.
Isn't Wally capable of doing this or is it something else?

Take the original ones from the cd and open them with Wally or whatever you're using. Data is the same.
Same info and 3 seconds difference, can't help it. But that has to be the record.
And stay on topic from now on. This is not meant to be a topic full of nonsense. That belongs in the stuff forum. Ok...
Oh dear, now I've frightened everyone from posting here.

Is there someone that works on a mod and would like to send in some advice this might be a good place to put it.
Ok, I going to make a mod that involdves all kinds of mod making including new enemies, weapons, game functions, program code, anything. As I go I could also write tutorials on how to do these things.
But then again. My tutorials doesn't seem to accepted very well

It could work with texture lightning.
For the doors: Use a func_door_rotating. Don't forget a brush covered with the texture origin or else the door will fly into who know's where?
Select both and set func_door_rotating.
As for cut_scenes: I don't really know... Yet.
Difficult.
Someone else can help you with these.

I going to shoot Ministeve someday.
This post was made on a thread that has been deleted.
A nice way to get rid of leaks is to build a solid block that covers every other brush in the map. Then start expert compiling and tick only the first entry, csg and bsp. Then begin to decrease the block size slightly. Take one part at a time. And run compiling everytime you do that.
Sounds good.
