That is weird indeed.
But i have news for you:
Im learning the power of Regular Expressions, a powerfull way to provide concise and flexible means for identifying text of interest, such as particular characters, words, or patterns of characters.
This means that you no longer have to type in your Steam Account Name.

Let him post the song here, im not really much of a MiRC user...
What about a compo?
The Hunter (since he intoduced AudioSurf on TWHL the first) picks a song, makes it available for download, then everyone else downloads it and try to get the highest score for that song in a week time (or shorter/longer) and the person with the highest score at the end of that period gets to choose the next song and so on, and so on, and so on. We can have a public score table for each song that's been played. Statistics ftw.
Fun anyone?

You just race and collect colored blocks for points. More clusters of the same colored block equals bigger points.

Haha, this is win.

Wow, you're fast, Rim (it was me who told him yesterday to work on that tutorial)!
Yes, but the gameinfo.txt is in different subfolder in each Source game directory. For example:
The gameinfo.txt file for HL2 is in half-life 2hl2.
The gameinfo.txt file for Ep1is in half-life 2 episode oneepisodic.
The gameinfo.txt file for HL2 is in half-life 2 episode twoep2
Its just confusing.
Plus, i don't know how to get specific data from text file such as the gameinfo.txt, as each gameinfo.txt is different, or slightly different.

Well, at this point im not really getting anywhere with Source support. Its gonna take a little longer for me to get support for Source mods and Source games. Why?
Because the directory structure of Source is a whole lot more complex than GoldSource.

Use a monstermaker for that. Not only can it spawn monsters, it can spawn waeapons, ammo and items and perhaps even more.
In the Monster Type field you type in the entity name of the weapon you wish to spawn (ie: weapon_gauss).
To make it repeatable you can try this:

To make it repeatable you can try this:
- Each time the mm is triggered (only if the weapon has been picked up)
- Have it automatically spawn a new weapon when the player picks up the weapon already spawned.
Sheesh! Is he on steroids?

Set render FX to glow or always glow.
What are its properties?
If it is "inside" a brush then you won't see it ingame. Make sure that the center origin of the sprite is not obstructed by brush geometry.
Pretty darn neat!
I only have a problem with the lighting. Looks dull. And whats the deal with the long corridor and the weird light emitting wall? Whats the point of that?
The main room was awesome! Good mapping.

If the player start entity has a Trigger Condition property, set the Trigger Condition to death, and Trigger Target to the env_fade, or multimanager if you want to trigger, more than just the fade (think sound, text, wahtever).
Use the env_fade entity. It allows you to fade the screen. Check the Glossary for more info about this entity.
Also, you're here long enough to know that this isn't the correct forum.

Erm... Right.
Srsly tho. This looks cool. I envy your skill, mostly because I have no idea how to write a program. As soon as you get a Source version I'm all over it.Ill tell you what: im not even a skilled programmes, i just make use of basic knowledge i get from books. Everything else is stuff i found on the Internet.
As for the name, its not a high priority thing at the moment, but keep making up names!
No im not making a tool like that, VTFEdit will do exactly that.
Also, i don't know the .vtf/.vmt file format.

You might make the mapnames double-clickable if it's not too hard... I keep doubleclicking them, looking away to relax for a second, and noticing nothing happens! Or even a "start map" button.So you want three different ways of starting a map:
- By hitting enter
- By clicking a button
- By doubleclicking a mapname
I like the doubleclicking so im adding that. There will be no button.Yeah, or even better do toggle switches for -sv_cheats 1 -dev, -console, or just automatically load them by default (what would it hurt).Consider it done.
As for the application names: a little more serious perhaps, even though i kinda like
-Mapstart(er)
-MuzzleFlash's Initiate Level Utility
Need moar names!
amn't
Thanks Captain Terror, that actually makes me wanne add more features, fix more bugs (if reported) and of course a prowed feeling. Harr. laughing - 
And yes, Source maps and mods spport will eventually be added.
I might also add an option to manually add commands and params, -dev -console for example.
There's plenty of room for improvements.
One other thing: "Half-Life Launcher" isn't really an original title, so if any of you can think of any cool names for the app, ill choose the one that fits the purpose of the application best and ill be using that.

The splash screen and console still loads visibly (is it supposed to),In WON or Steam HL? Probably WON, because i use the -dev and -console parameters for WON. I might remove that, but it doesn't matter anyway as long as the selected mod and map load correctly.

Yes. At first i made this for myself, but i decided to share it with you guys as well. The problem is that i did'nt beta test this enough, but you did, you used the program and found some bugs which i fixed.
So... i guess i should thank you for testing it and for letting me know what bugs you've found.
Will you be using the new version? I've fixed the issue where normal HL was launched instead of the mod you've selected in Steam. Should work now. I've been testing this thing for hours today, getting it to work, and trying to make it crash proof.

UPDATED!
If you've used a previous version of the Half-Life Launcher and it crashed on you, you need to delete the registry values. They are located in
SOFTWAREAtomsTools
So delete AtomsTools. Then use the new version.
I think the problem here is that, when you select a map thats from a different mod than hl, the "Hl Launcher" still launches the normal hl instead of the mod, and because of that it can't load the map, which is in a different directory.Fixed.
put in a check for the maps folder - it hard crashed when i accidentally switched to the 'errorlogs' folder without thinking.Done.

have it automatically make a list of your installed mods to check and runIts allready doing that.
Ill look into that.
A similar program for Source and Source mods would be nice.That is a planned feature. And since you're the first one to propose this, i want you (if possible) to test the current release of the Half-Life Launcher, because i need to know if it finally works (It works fine here though).
You got a problem?
Version 1.0.2 uploaded!
Fixed: Now works with Steam HL (if you put the executable in the correct directory that is! See first post or readme.txt to find out where).

It doesn't fucking work! Not with Steam HL that is.
It works fine under WON HL.
Fucking filesystem dll!

Uhm... read before you post.
FFS!
Even with the "steam.exe -applaunch 70" commandline, i get the "Could not find filesystem dll to load."
I don't get it.
Guess ill just drop this mini project.
