It doble posted? Whoopy! :biggrin:

Edit:

Ow...well, no real harm.

The ship reminds me of that flying camera in Hl2(It's probebly based on it) mixed with Quake2's flying boss.

If you still need any alpha/beta testers I can help you. I'll try to help you in the gameplay aspect.

That helicopter looks like it's going to have tow kinds of weapons. Here is my suggestions for weaponry:

Main weapon: Something like bulltes only that it creates blue sparks instead of yellow.(I think you made a weapon like that already) You should make him shoot a the place you was 0.2 seconds ago, to make it possible to evoid his shots.

Secondery weapon: Should be fired out of those two big guns. I think it should be a beam weapon. Make the weapon warm up a few moments before it shoots. In that time it wont use the main weapon. When this weapon warms up a sound will be heard. When he started warming up he already took his aim, he will shoot the spot you where in when he started warming up. After he used this weapon make him fly backwards abit and for a second he wont be able to shoot. After he used these weapons make him unable to use them again for a minimum of 10 seconds. After those 10 seconds there is 40% he'll use that gun and 60% he'll use the other.

Always think of a way you can avoid shots, thats one of the basic aspects of gameplay. It's annoying when you can't avoid shots and have to be hit by them. :(

Nice ship, reminds me of Quake2's flying boss. If you like I can send the model of that guy with a Quake2 model viewer, it might give you insperation for the model's animations.(Give him animations don't make him still, it will look much better with them)

in Bye bye, Bill Gates Post #185541
About the guys who try to say he's an angle because of his donations I can say one thing:
He might have donated alot but how much from his all money the donations are? Nothing. If he was really trying to be nice he'd give away half of his fortune away to charity, he will still have a cople of billions left.
Don't try to back him up.

Besides the use of donations is very little! If he wants to help people he should do more then donating millions of dollars. He should fight for people's basic rights and even try to make a whole revolution(doesn't have to be violent you know) in order to really help people.

in hollowing brushes? Post #185479
Don't lumber yourself with worldcraft 3.3. It has many problems.(like brushes blackning in the 2D views after you clip)
I used it once so believe me.
If you can't or don't wont worldcraft 3.5 get 3.4. I think it will work for you if 3.5 wont.
If you want to use 3.5 get the newst ZHLT, Worldcraft 3.5 don't support older ones.(I speak from expirience, it made me use 3.4 for ages untill I updated ZHLT 2.5.1 to 3)

There are more things then a computer to worry about in life plus my one works perfectly well. 160$ isn't so cheap either. Where I live it's worth about 500, the avrage salary is 6000... and don't forget the taxes, bills, refueling cars, fixing cars, medicens
(can cost alot nowadays)...ect Get my point? Not everybody is like you guys, you usally come from above avrage sociaties.(in terms of money)

You are talking like a big screen, computer and internet is one of man's basic needs, even more important then water.

i think it was elon who told me on MSN that 1024 x 768 was super high, and that 800 x 600 was normal.. pffft.
I said 800x600 was decent, 1024x768 was normal and higher is over the top. Not everybody earns 10k dollar per month or sees it more important to have a huge 2000x2000 screen in their house then all the other things they have to buy.

in lights Post #185340
Like what mostly everybody said, it depends on what theme the room will have-
A warehouse will have diffrent light sources if it's day or night, abandoned or not...
And it probebly wont have lighting just like a high tech facility. ;)

What is the theme of the room? :quizzical:

Hunter: Don't underestimate the light entities. Texture lights are often a better solution but there are stuff that can't be done without point lights.

[zhlt.wad]
[halflife.wad]
[zhlt.wad]
[tfc2.wad]
[decals.wad]
[de_piranesi.wad]
[twv_de_cielo.wad]

Error: Error opening C:Program FilesSteamSteamAppsrhyscoopercounter-
strikecstrikemapsTWV_de_cielo11.bsp: No such file or directory
Heck, Why include the Hl1 wad? I think it comes with every CS. You included ZHLT.wad twice!
(btw, when my friends tested it- it took took 8 mins to download :cool: )
No wonder, you included so many wads in the .BSP file itself! Remove the ones that come with CS. Like decals.wad and Halflife.wad.
Many wads included= large file size

Note that the error messege comes right after the included wads list so it might have something to do with including so many wads.

By the way how many wads have you included in Hammer's texture list? 8 is the maximum number, don't use more, it may sometimes cause mystirious errors.

Edit:

And my last advice is not to use capital letters in map names.

If there is a leak you should know about it when you read your compile log. ;) Leaks wont have anything to do with this.

in ambient_generic Post #184323
A very common problem is that people often are confused when it comes to the flag- 'is not toggled'
If you tick the flag the sound wont be looped if you don't then it will be. Hence in older FGDs it was called 'is not looped'.
Maybe the ambient Generic does play but when you get to it's area it have already stopped playing.

For the lazy ones that don't want to read the whole post, let me summerize it-

Is not toggled=Is not looped

It's not anything to do with you it's spirit. They only made the fog look right in 1.5... maybe in 1.4 too.

I had some problems with that version of spirit. My Hl1 doesn't seam to like it's Cl_dll. When I removed that Dll it worked fine. The weird thing my Hl1 doesn't have no Client.Dll... only something called gameGui.Dll :

Download batch compiler from slackiller's programs(link page), it works hevenly.

If you never run with a expert compile mode then don't bother yourself with batch compiling. Just use regular compiling(through hammer) until you are ready.

Create a brush that is 1 unit high textured with the null texture over all it's sides. On the side you want the fake 'decal' texture texture it with that texture. Tie it to a func_illuosenary and it's done.

What the heck?? Many of these maps in the first video are from sven co-op I recodnise them, the one with the pipes in xen is the blue planet, the one in with the tunnel in the middle and all the slaves is also from the blue planet map. You can also see that the slaves resurect others like in seven co-op. Plus some parts of this film has nice lighting and bumpmaps and some don't. The first parts has such a good and highly detailed model but the others don't. The first parts have nicer textures then the last ones. I smell a rat, a really stinky rat. :x

in Rocket effect Post #182952
Just make a env_laser that it's end target will follow an invisible func_train.(it must have a origin) The env_lazer's sprite will be the same as the rockets trail(make sure the spirit wont scroll) and it's end sprite will be a glow. When the train passes it's last path corner(path_corner's 'fire on pass' value) an explostion will be activated. It will be nearly as good, maybe without a rocket(unless the train is not invisible but a rocket, don't know how to make the flare apear on the rear side, maybe if you'll place the origin in the rear), I can asure you it will be hardly noticible. If you use spirit you can make a model follow the train, but I think you can make an actual shot...

I'll make an example. :)

Edit:

Looks like this is going to be one of those examples with many subjects. I just made a neat tarrein with out ant trinangles.
