?Hey, hey, buddy. Come on, wake up.? The scientist opened his eyes slowly, being greeted by the bearded face of Henry Pierce. ?Sorry ?bout that. I thought you were another monster. Good thing I was out of ammo, huh?? The scientist groaned and adjusted his glasses.
?We must get out of here! I have no idea what?s going on, but it must be linked to the big experiment in sector C, and that can?t mean it?s a simple fix.?
?You figure everyone else is leaving??
?Absolutely.?
?Okay.? Pierce helped the scientist get to his feet. ?Let?s go. My name?s Henry, by the way.?
?Paul.? The two men walked out of the locker room and down the hallway. At the end there was a closed fire door.
?Great. That?s the only way out of here, and it?s blocked.?
?Not necessarily, my good man. If we can move the desk in your office over here, we may be able to reach that ventilation cover and get inside.?
?Get? inside.?
?Yes.?
?In the vents.?
?Naturally.?
?Why the [i]HELL[/i] would we want to do that? Who knows what?s in there, waiting to pounce??
?You have a weapon.?
?Good point.? The two emptied Pierce?s desk and moved it to the fire door. Paul used a Swiss army knife he was carrying in his pocket to open the vent cover, and just before he entered, Pierce ran into his office, returning a minute later.
?What was that about??
?Couldn?t leave without a picture of my girlfriend. I don?t want to die without it, I want her face to be the last thing I see if I?m gonna die here.? Pierce climbed into the vent and Paul followed him. They passed the first vent cover on the other side of the door, because they could feel the heat from the flames, but Pierce kicked out the next cover and helped Paul out.
?Come on, let?s go Paul. We have to head for the surface.?
?Hey, Henry! Glad to see you?re still alive!?
?Frank! What are you still doing here??
?Looting.?
?Wha- [b]Frank[/b]! You can?t just steal from people, you?re a security guard! I should shoot you!?
?Relax, I?m only taking from the storage closet. No one?s going to miss a few hard drives.?
?We have to get out of here, Frank. There are monsters.?
?Yeah, I know.? Frank pulled out a 357 magnum and twirled it around his finger.
?Frank, is that a personal weapon??
?Sure is.?
?We?re not allowed to have those.?
?Doesn?t stop most people. You know Laurey??
?That fat guy from area 3??
?Yeah, him. He has a military surplus desert eagle.?
?I always thought he was insecure about his weight. Never thought it was so bad he had to compensate with a terrible weapon.?
?Terrible??
?Seven shots on a magazine-based pistol. And it?s pretty inaccurate, too, from what I hear. Just raw, brute force.?
?Either way, I have this magnum here. I think it?ll come in pretty handy.?
?Okay, whatever, Frank. Let?s just get to a security armoury fast.?

?Good thing we only saw one of those crabs.? Said Frank. ?I have a bad feeling about them.?
?Yeah, well, we?re here.? Replied Pierce. ?Hey doc, want to learn something new? If you?re in this area, but separated from us somehow, you just need to know this six-digit code to get into an armoury. It?s different for every sector of the base, but they?re usually easy to remember. Watch. One, one, one, one, one, and? one.? Pierce entered the code onto the keypad, and the door unlocked. The three grabbed shotguns and armour from the room, and left without closing the door. Suddenly, a bright flash of light fazzled into existence behind them, and the three wheeled around, firing off their shotguns. The creature crumpled to the floor, its third arm hanging limply, its green collar full of buckshot.
?Just more and more freaks. We gotta get to the surface.? Pierce stated.
?Yes, I agree.? Agreed Paul. ?But we should hurry, before any more of these being app-?

?Oh, god. Paul.? Pierce ran to a nearby garbage receptacle and let his breakfast exit freely.
?What a waste.? Agreed a green-tinged Frank. ?It?s no use staying here, Henry. We have to head for the surface. We can avenge him by helping the cavalry when they arrive. [i]If[/i] they arrive.?
?That is so? so [b]wrong[/b]!? Exclaimed Pierce. ?To think that we were just talking to the person who that used to be-" Pierce ran back to the garbage can and let more of his stomach?s contents rejoin his breakfast.
?Damn bloody mess. I hope that won?t happen often.? Frank coughed. Both knew nothing, not even something in the Black Mesa research facility, could bring their ally back. Frank half-carried Pierce away from the remains of the scientist as the automated base announcement system told all sectors to report their status.

You need to use render mode solid, not additive. Amount should stay 255

my opposing force FGD file has monster_barney_dead and monster_otis_dead entities, I thought that was just normal, or are you talking about something else?

@PointClass base(RenderFields,Appearflags, Angles, Sequence) size(-16 -16 0, 16 16 72) = monster_barney_dead : "Dead Barney"
[

@PointClass base(RenderFields,Appearflags, Angles, Sequence) size(-16 -16 0, 16 16 72) studio("models/barney.mdl") = monster_barney_dead : "Dead Barney"

pose(choices) : "Pose" : 0 =

Decals doesn't have to be put in decals.wad.

What do you mean am I spying on you?

I'm experimenting with a dream-like sequence, I want the player to be eventually faced with an impossible to win situation, and when they die, they wake up in the real world.

?Good morning, and welcome to the Black Mesa transit system. This automated train is provided for the security and convenience of the Black Mesa research facility personnel??

?Come in.? A greasy haired member of the science team, in casual clothes, walked in.
?I?m sorry to bother you, Sergeant, but I was browsing the web on one of the computers in the caf?, and all of a sudden it crashed. Every computer crashed! The others have been trying to reboot them, but they?re refusing to work!?
?Every computer? Must be a server-wide crash.? Pierce motioned towards his own computer. ?It?s out of my hands, I can?t get this one to work, but if I do, I?ll send down the solution to you guys.?
?But Professor Baker?s becoming a tad violent, yelling something about making it to the? citadel on hard?? Pierce sighed.
?Alright, alright.? He peeled himself out of his chair and grabbed his nightstick. ?Let?s go.?

?Ah, Gordon. Here you are. We just sent the sample down to the test chamber.? Said a bald man of science with glasses.
?We?ve boosted the anti-mass spectrometer 105%. Bit of a gamble, but we need the extra resolution.? Explained a scientist with a moustache.
?The? Administrator is very concerned that we get a conclusive analysis of today?s sample. I gather they went to some lengths to get it.? Finished a dark skinned science team member with greying hair. The first scientist piped up again.
?They?re waiting for you Gordon. In the test chamber.? The man, Gordon Freeman, looked instantly relived. The sample was late too.

?Good job on stopping Professor Baker from crushing that guy with the monitor, Henry. Real quick thinking.? 
?Shut up, Frank.?
?No, I mean it. Would be a lot of paperwork.?
?Good-bye, Frank.? Pierce closed the door on his colleagues face and put a chair in front of it. ?Jesus. Can?t go one day without being a clown.? He muttered to himself. Pierce sat down on his own chair, pulled out his mp3 player, and set the volume on max.
?I can?t remember if I cried, when I read about his widowed bride, but something touched me deep inside, the day the music died. So bye-bye, miss American pie. Drove my Chevy to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old boys were drinking? whiskey and rye, Singing?, ?this?ll be the day that I die. This?ll be the day that I die.??  The coffee in Pierce?s cup started to vibrate, then the entire office shook. ?What the hell?? Pierce exclaimed as he pulled his earbuds out of his ears and leapt to his feet. His coffee cup fell off his desk and smashed on the floor. Unholstering his pistol, Pierce kicked the chair out of the way and ran out of the door and into the hallway. Ceiling tiles dropped to the floor and dust shook from the walls, and for a split second, a flash of green light came from around the corner. The Shaking stopped.
?Okay?What the hell was that?? a loud metallic clang responded. ?Hello?? Pierce walked around the corner and into the men?s locker room, gun at the ready. ?Frank? That you?? A panting noise. ?Frank??
[i]?Ruff.?[/i]
?Frank, this isn?t funny. Come out before I accidentally shoot you.? More panting. Pierce approached a locker that was slightly out of its nook. ?Come on, Frank. I know you?re behind that locker.? A high-pitched harmonic squeal. ?Dammit, Frank. Don?t make me do this.? The locker fell to the ground, spilling its contents half a second before crushing them. A three-legged yellow creature with a single eye jumped out from behind it and howled. Pierce screamed while unloading a full ammunition clip into the creature. The creature dropped to the ground with a whine, its single eye still open.
?That is [i]not[/i] a dog. Whatever the hell that is, that is not a dog. That is not [i]normal[/i].? Another locker behind Pierce opened, and he wheeled around and pulled the trigger, hearing clicks instead of gunfire. The scientist he almost shot fainted and fell back into the locker.

NOT SUITABLE FOR TWHL -mod

umm what do you mean by load?

aiscripted_sequence has 'name': ss_retina1

Wow, you guys can't be serious. You can clearly see shadows on the wall under that alcove.

I didn't know there was such a thing, how do you use it?

Not me, i have no idea how to read/write pak, cfg, mdl, spr and wad files.

Who wants team up with me and write The Developator?

but there is no trigger_once entity!?!
