I can't get it to work either. Guess they (Valve) removed the entity completely. I don't understand why they did that... :/
Hunter: to get an env_message to work, you'll need the titles.txt file and make this "code block" segments where you refer to in the entity. I got it working multiple times.
As for the game_text, support for this entity may still be available in the TFC game dll. You could try adding the game_text fgd code into the fgd file that potatis linked to a couple posts up, then go into Hammer, place a game_text entity, set up its properties and a trigger and see if the text appears ingame.
This is the fgd code for the game_text:

Thats the beam thats triggers either nothing, or the invisible func_button that triggers the stuff on the table. 
In the final version the random event generator entities will be placed somewhere where the player cannot see them.

Dude, thats looks awesome! Can't wait to some textured ingame shots, or even better, a compiled bsp! 
What is it? Some underground bunker or something?

Click this...
Just look under "not installed" and install HL2DM from there...
heh , that one would look great with bumpmapping grin -Hah, well, if you're making a bumpmap with the texture, i wish you luck, because its a pain in the ass.
I generally avoid all games with "delux" as part of their names.Why is that? "Deluxe" is not actually part of the title. All games by PopCap can also be played in your browser. The Deluxe version is simply the same game, but better graphics and offline play.

I want my own timer (aka Sliding Device):

If the brush is too big to be picked by using it, you can still pick it up with the gravity gun, just make sure you check allow gravgun pickup or something similar in the flags.
Thanks all.
And pepper, i have no lightning in my map. I do have some lasers, though.

The lighting is a little repetitive to me, It would get boring to me very quickly, that's why I suggested breakable lights, just to break up the monotony of the lighting.What else can you expect in a laboratory type environment? Plus, making the lights breakable is something that you do in singleplayer maps, this is HLDM map, so no, im not making the lights breakable (i would hit the "Too many direct light styles on a face" warning in no time.

I know how to do it for one player, but more players is not possible i think.
You want the player to be teleported (to where?) when he reaches a new place? I don't get it.
Right now it looks like some corporate lab where the people are not allowed to have personalities....What? Explain that.
Are you saying it needs more shadows?
If the r_speeds allow it, ill add some more detail to them. But really, its a hallway to connect each individual labs, most detail goes into the labs, not the hallways.
Some shots of the a new lab:
An alternative you could try is a func_push that catches the player near the bottom, but is too high for the player to jump back into.I tried this a few hours ago and trust me, its a serious pain in the butt to get it right. It all depends on how you jimp into the shaft. Sometimes you get pushed back up, sometimes you go though but still receive fall damage.
If your mod is a multiplayer mod, keep in mind that changelevels via entities don't work.
If your mod is sinlgeplayer, make sure you don't run your map in deathmatch mod (type deathmatch in the console to find out deathmatch mode is on or off. type deathmatch 0 to turn it off.

Geez...
DosBox is a Dos simulator which supports SoundBlaster and Adlib sound which is unavailable in Windows.
So if you don't want to experience the original SB music and sound effects in its full glory, don't install DosBox.
As for my favorite side, i don't have one, because there's hardy any difference between the armies. I guess Harkonnen would be my favorite side, because they have the Devastator tank and the Death Hand Missile.

Get DosBox as well!
I still play Dune 2 now and then. Not because of the graphics, but because of the gameplay.
Serious Sam is awesome.
If you can't play the First Encounter, play the Second Encounter, it has three different worlds while the FE only has one world (Egypt).
You can enable built-in addons to make the look better.

Well, i think ill replace the overhead lights with something smaller that give off less light, then add some lights close to the floor, and finally some spotlights here and there. I just don't to overbright it with too many lightsources.
Thanks, i can do something with that.
You have a point there, but remember this is still WIP, im just doing architecture first mostly. I just added those overhead lights quickly to put together a quick scene that is worth a screenshot.
The map is mostly lab stuff, labs have overhead lights in most cases i think. Got any tips for me abou"t lighting this particular map?

No.
I don't have a name yet. I suck at thinking of one...
Muzzleflash, that way the player will get stuck in the floor. OR not?Nope.
Argh, you and your excessive use of pointless spaces.
Here's how you place an info_teleport_destination the correct way without the player getting stuck in the floor or spawn a couple of units above the floor and fall down:
Can you make a tutorial or teach me how you did that ? I always tried to make something like that but didn't succeed unhappy -Sure, maybe some time in the future. The stairs are made from scratch using simple blocks and carfull vertex manipulation to shape the actual stairs.
Streight up stairwells bore me now.
Neat, it supports the vtf file format by default.
If you were trying to upload bmp files, you seriously need to stop using the internet and and read a couple of books on the topic.
Back to the problem at hand:
Select the pipes and set the cast shadows property to No.

Also, whats with the title?

My guess is that the timer is so complex that it actually "hurts" your CPU each time it is supposed to trigger something resulting in framedrops as its calculating the event that was triggered. Hope it makes sense.
I don't really know a fix for this, other then removing the timer, but that is probably not what you want to hear...

I have no idea about this one.
Do you have any moving brushes in your map?

When you trigger a func_wall_toggle, it disappears, like as if there never was a wall. When you trigger it again, it reappears and is solid again.
The targets were game_texts.There's your problem.
The game will crash with strange characters such as double quotation marks, slashes, backslashes and the like.
The game will also crash if the text is too long to fit on a single line. You can add a second line by adding /n in the message property.
Also make sure that the text has no more than 255 characters (that includes whitespaces as well).
Maybe the trigger_once is not the problems, but the target(s).
At least this mod has a flashlight that doesn't drain any power, so its on forever.
Striker, what are you, 13 years old?
Its just polygons, get over it!

Check out Mistake, a singleplayer horror mod for Half-Life.
Author's note:
"This mod will let us into a horroristic world in the Andrew Parker asylum and we will live through (or not) in the view of a mental patient. The mod?s primal object is not the insane bloodbath. The real object is to escape from the huge building which holds a lot of secrets."
Features:
I only just started playing and im already pretty spooked.
Give it a try.
For the best gameplay experience, play at night, with lights off.
"What is that noise..."

Not if you keep the original unmodified materials.txt file inside the pak file.
But you can only have one modified materials.txt file in your sounds directory until you download a map that also uses a modified file. Then you would overwrite the one you previously downloaded, in this case zeeba-G's materials.txt file, making the custom sound textures in his map to not produce the sound any more when you walk over them.
So yeah, making a custom materials.txt is pretty pointless.
