I don't see a problem with maps having the same name. Who cares?

Besides, that was a DM map, so techically it's not even the same name...

DVDx 2.3 from SourceForge Update:

Great for extracting audio only--I like to listen to movies, rather than watch them.

After decryption, the whole process didn't take longer than 10 minutes total--to wav, and then used GoldWave to change it to mp3.

Oh movie was Total Recall btw, and let me tell you it's a great movie to listen to :)

Wow how could I forget... Maybe not the most ridiculous, but getting killed by a melee weapon--crowbar, knife, shovel, etc-- is always very, very sad, especially when your shooting at the person and they kill you anyway!

in Button Texture Prob Post #157387
It looks exactly the same, but if you wanted that flicker to occur for the on setting--which could be cool--, you could do it with custom textures.

Just take the +A~METALSTCH2, copy it using wally, and rename it to +A~CRETESTCH01A

Then it won't flicker 'till you activate it, if that's what your looking for. Otherwise, the textures look exactly the same.

Btw, your elevator shaft looks just like the airlock from the end of Aliens! Looks nice!

in Button Texture Prob Post #157384
K, got it. The texture you were using is not switchable, only animating.

Use this one instead:

+A~METALSTCH2

and it will work the way you want it to :)

No shouldn't matter. Upload to problem maps and include the textures. Include a text description of exactly what you want it to do, and we'll figure it out one way or the other :)

If toggle is "on", any of the time to reset paramaters are nullified.

other values for "time to reset":
-1 remains on
0 no delay
1,2,3...waits that many seconds to reset.

in stairs Post #157369
Yeah, but Rimmy that doesn't say anything about monsters.

I had this problem with hosties on a CS map, well sort of. The player could traverse the staris no problemo, but the hosties would fall through.

The Hunter recommended adding clip brushes just under the rise/run of the stairs and it worked like a dream! maybe it will work for your monsters too :)

Posted 18 years ago2006-01-10 19:41:04 UTC
in Button Texture Prob Post #157362
It should work as Elon and CaptP said, If you want it to start off, texture the button with the +A texture of the sequence. To recap:

+Atexturename --texture shown when the button is not activated
+0 - +9texturename --animated series to show when button is on.

Make sure your button properties are correctly set up as well--time to reset, remain on, or toggle accordingly.

More info on texture types here.

My first

'Twas going to upload the first version of this too, but it was referencing like 8 wads, and I would have had to retexture it :P Instead, this is the latest version of my first map.

It's really the same map more or less with all the bad brushwork fixed, scale corrected, some simple lights added--original fullbright--, some detail items added, and some removed.

In the original, I had these a drivable APC, these intricate inflatable rafts full of invalid solids, and my walls were super thick because I didn't know how to adjust the grid size lololol!!!

Any Updates on this anyone?

I've tried these, but with no success:

DVDshrink-great for copying dvds, but not to avi
DVDDecrypter-fine for decryping--you can watch without the disk--but that's all
1clickDVDcopy-Only for 1:1 copies, limited license
DVDrip-and-burn-didn't work, and gave me 30 new critical objects on AdAware :o
x-DVD-Platinum-will convert DVD to any format--mp3, avi, whatever, but not free :(

I'm currently combing a couple dvd ripping forums, but no success yet.

The next program I'm planning to try is called AutoGordianKnight. If I get desperate enough, I might try Frag's method!

I'm trying to convert a couple dvds I already own to mp3, and to avi.

I totally know what you mean, and it can be quite discouraging, but consider:

If no one ever saw your maps ever, would you map? I know I would, because the act of creating something from your imagination, or from a place you've visited 1000 times, is an excellent thing.

It's like sketching or another hobby. It's nice when people give us compliments, but I don't think it's the reason we do it--At least why we start doing it.

Good luck and see you soon!--everyone returns to the blackhole that is TWHL :)

in Starship Troopers Post #156771
Great Idea Hydeph. I think somebody else did something similar to this and dispalayed their map a year or so ago, but I can't remember who...

@Luke: Natural selction is an Aliens ripoff, which itself was a ripoff of Starship Troopers. Other Robert Heinlein ripoffs are Warhammer 40k and StarCraft. NS as many of the ripoffs--StarCraft--are still excellent games though.
exoskeleton from the original book would have fixed that
Indeed. The book was soooo much better, but the movie had some good elements "preserved" from the book... well sort of :)
