The Mad Carrot
Yeah, i just figured that out. Thanks anyway.
Well that sorta works. For some reason, Steam just ignores any parameter that i type after that shell command, like this:
steam://run/70/ +map crossfire
This for instance, only launches HL, but not the map crossfire. Fuck.
Edit: I GOT IT WORKING! Now give me some time to make the necessary code adjustments...

Ok, i get the same error...
It has got nothing to do with my app.
Ill try to find a solution to this.

Sigh. No. Are you using Steam HL or WON HL?
What?
Is that a Steam error?

UPDATE: Mod support has been added. Goto the first post for the updated download.
Please report any problems and/or bugs.
Please report any problems and/or bugs.
If you had read the readme.txt you know ill program mod support in future versions.
Fixed.
New build uploaded: i found another instance of incorrect code which is causing the application to crash at startup (only if you have not installed HL at D:\Half-Life).
Here's something i've put together when i got bored:
Its a little tool that allows you to quickly load a map in Half-Life without using the ingame console or shortcut.
It can load a map in singleplayer or deathmatch mode (by checking the checkbox).
Its not really that original, but i find it pretty usefull and i've replaced my Half-Life desktop shortcut with this so that i can quickly select a map (download from TWHL for instance) from the list, hit enter, and HL loads with the selected map.
Loading up HL manually, going in the console, enter a map and hit enter is basically the same thing, my tool only does it faster.
Source is not supported. Maybe later.
UPDATED
Download Half-Life Launcher Version 1.0.3. (Requires .NET FrameWork 2.0)
WARNING! Put the executable in "Steamsteamappsaccount_namehalf-life" or face the "Could not find filesystem dll to load." error!

Mine, after reinstalling XP:
Here you go: Click
somewhere where muzzleflash can store his cool flamethrower prefab or whatever he will build next etc (just a example, please dont hit me, muzzle!)Thats funny, cuz I've never made a flamethrower prefab...
I hate to say it, but this mod has failure written all over it. 
Sheesh, you're such a nubceak sometimes, thehalflifedude, seriously.
Now stop you're bullcrap and stay out of this thread unless you have some selfmade textures to show, got it?

True. So just use zip.
so can i put .exe files to the map vault? Forget about him -Simply put: no.
Unless you zip those exe files.
He's working on a... no, im not telling you. Yet. 
Do you have Steam?
If not, get Steam. Install the Source game you wish to map for, then install the Source SDK from the Tools tab (left click, install).

what about the normal mod (not deathmatch) can i use this here?What mod?
Who said anything about HL2? Im talking about Steam itself, dope.
Oh, and don't bother making any more "How do i get (something from HL2) working in HL1" threads. If you want stuff from HL2, then map for HL2. Or make your own damn models and stuff and stop ripping them from HL2.
end of pointless argument.Whatever suits you.

In fact, you can have monsters in deathmatch, just be sure to enable mp_allowmonster (set to 1).
Dude thats not the point. The point is: you and Elon both blame Steam for doing somekind of harm to your computers. Virusses, spam, screwing up your dads email, whatever, Steam doesn't do that.
Im having a d?j? vu here.

Basically, Elon blames Steam for messing up his computer. That is bullshit! Read that thread and learn from it, hopefully you get the point.

There's a difference alright.
Singleplayer maps don't show up in the maplist under LAN or Internet play. To start up a singleplayer map (a single player map only required one info_player_start) simply open the console and enter "map mapname" (no quote, no bsp extention).
But if you're making a deathmatch map, then you don't need info_player_start entities but multiple info_player_deathmatch entities. Only then the map will appear in the map list under LAN or Internet play.

Right.
Well anyway, you really should move to Source...

Ooooh. Now that you mention it...
I got the same thing, and i run 1600*1200. So its probably some little glitch in Hammer. Guess you can't do anything about it...

I don't actually see a problem really. Looks like a fine grid to me. So im not really sure what the real problem is...
Goto Tools --> Options --> 2D Views and check the Grid settings.
Don't bump old threads. Sheesh!
No, you can't.
what's with the second twist?Its called showing off.
Yeah, don't do that.

Actually, "placed" is the correct word. You place entities, you don't draw them.
Make sure you don't place the entities inside or partially inside walls.
You also want to make sure that everything else in your map works fine, check for warnings/errors in the log file.

How do you make those things?
OMFG!
That is so good!
Put that in the example map vault!

Tip for halflife_genius:
Think, then act. Don't act, then think.
Oh Lord. This idea is absolutely the definition of EPIC FAIL.

Wait... you're using qrad??
Thats bad. It might fix those lighting issues, but generally not recommended that you use an old q tool.
Those shadows probably come from solid brush work. See what happens when you func_wall those.

Wow, Strider. Thats looks neat.
What entities did you used for those effects?

Is your compile log error/warning free?
Did you add an ORIGIN brush to the tank?
That is not at all funny.
So yes, its dumb. Stop making spam threads.

Ok.
When Realistic Fall damage is oon, you just fall to death if you fall from too high. If its off, you receive 10 damage points of fall damage nomatter how high you're falling from.
This is only the case in multiplayer though, in singleplayer there's always realistic fall damage.
Edit: Thanks to potatis_invalid for correcting a mistake.

Ur using Vista?No, XP. Thats why its so strange, i never had functionality problems with Hammer on XP before... I guess my system is just clogged with crap.
