compilator wasnt working at first. I didnt try it after i downloaded the super tools, I just got the 32 bit version, edited the batch file and it worked. I probably would have worked if i set the ZHLT directory to where the supertools were but I didn't want to mess with it. I've been using the compilator almost since its release.
That's what i like to hear!
I don't really use all my ram either.
but i can't wait until i get Win 7 and my DDR3 ram...
Then i'm gonna need another motherboard because usb 3.0 is coming soon.
It's not even running half full speed, and it's 2x as fast as 2.0 already.

It's red. Kinda looks like the Overstock.com "O"
I like firefox, i just like chrome better
It's the lazy-mans web browser. Minimizes typing.

I believe i can start working on the gameplay later tonight. As i should have the majority of the brushwork completed, and the level sealed in, leak free.
then from there its: lighting - extras - optimization.
18 days SHOULD be enough

Idk i just followed the instructions in the rar file.
The full vis might add another 2-3 days onto the time as it is.

Hmm.. i may have to migrate back to firefox from chrome.

Allright. I'll still give you updates though.
And you sure you didnt want a full vis compile?

I didnt mess with the batch file at all.
all i did was change the super compile tools to the zoners tools.
So i finally just downloaded the 32 bit super tools. Now it's all working fine.
It's not running -full vis, i hope that's allright.
I just started the compile on this dreadful laptop:
Intel Celeron M 1.4 GHz @ 1.40GHZ
504 ?? Mb ram
(I really shouldnt be bashing this lappy. It runs perfectly. Clean, fresh new install of XP. The only 3rd party programs on here are AVG, Chrome, and The compile tools. It's just slow by todays standards)
But, as promised here are your updates:
CSG - Done
BSP - Done
VIS - BasePortal - Done
VIS - LeafThread - Holding steady at 29%
More news in the Am.

Yeah it's not even getting to BSP.. wtf did you do?
And i'm getting like 300 texure errors. including the 8+ max
Plus i keep getting a file read error after you're including like.. every texture in the game..
I'll keep messing with it

hey do you need -dev 10 in the compile options?
Do you want a full vis compile?
Other than that i have everything else set up

well it wasnt the compile itself, an outside source (father) interfered
This laptop is going to suck. but it's an expendable resource

And VS49688,
Don't worry about having the compile be shut down by outside sources. This comp is mine until mid august, and nobody is going to be using it except for me.
I'll turn off all the power-save options (except for monitor shutdown, this is a brand new screen... the reason i have this comp in the first place. i did a screen swap) and it's a laptop so if we lose power it'll still have a 3 hour battery keeping it up.
if a power outage lasts too long i'll have a word with my manager. I do work at the power company
unfortunatley my wired machine downloads at the same rate the wireless does. Which means your server is bottlenecking the process. Oh well.
guess i cant start for another 2 hours lmao.

that's allI'm downloading the .rar now.
I'm grabbing the compilator as well.
What else do i have to modify for the 32 bit mode?
Or can you just tell me the compile settings and i'll have the compilator do the work for me

Actually make sense saying this in a real-life situation 10 times in a year.

If you want to test the map with lighting, you're gonna have to run vis and rad. Just take off the -fast command, it wont be THAT bad.
Not as bad as -full, anyway.

His new stuff is better than his old stuff.
Ok what are those things floating over the water. To the left of the last screenshot.
And.. it took YOU seven days.
you won't hear from me for a month...
Still worth a shot though.
The computer runs only windows and the wireless network card.
I can disable everything but the basic OS functions to maximize speed.
The laptop i'm running is a Dell Dimension 6000. It's crap.
My Main computer specs:
AsROCK p43 Twins Motherboard
I have that same processor, not overclocked
I also have the 8800 GTS (not sure about the 320)
Generic 500W Power Supply
And 4 gig Corsair ram.
Looks like our systems are fairly similar. (Minus the overclock)
So if the lappy fails to compile i'll try it on my Main machine. I just won't compile my source maps while that's running.
I'll probably make some decent progress anyway.

My compiles are right around 2-3 Minutes. It's just basic light_enviromnent, and displacements.
I scrapped the whole middle part of my map 2 days ago. Made more progress deleting stuff then i did trying to get those damn subdivisions to work.
Ahh well.

Before i attempt to compile it, what are your system specs?
I wanna compare to see if that could make any difference...
That's for my main machine.
I have a laptop i recently re-formatted (My cousin broke it with limewire pr0n) I can just set that up and see if it'll run.
It's 32 bit so i'll see if i can just open up the compilator and keep the settings you mentioned.
I can't try it for another 8 hours, as i just got into work. But i'll definitly give it a shot.

you probably should've looked into that.
And you spelled Oxygen wrong in your picture.
Can't believe nobody noticed that

. I spend 1 month working on this map, where 70% of the time is wondering how to fix stupid errors.Not to kill your spirit, But welcome to Game Development
As for the engine switch, you can import your current map into source quite easily.
you'll have to re-do a lot of the entitys, and ALL the texturing, but at least you wont have to do all the brushwork over again.
Just save the map in hammer 3.x and open the VMF in 4.0
Should direclty import.
wow
i totally meant interogative.
fuck i hate being awake at 4AM
Nor did i even read Urby's post.
They were yes's
Damnit all.

They said Y, as in a perrogative statement saw. I don't think they meant "Yes"
anyway. I do like the metro-cop idea.

I've never bought anything off him..
But i did get oxy-clean in wal-mart.
Sad to hear he went out like that. He probably got a concussion and didnt know about it.

In your last screenie, what's that matrix of dots over the water?
That was sweet.
Lets go back to the precious choice and see where that takes us

orrr you can split it?
You'd have to edit some master entitys but it should work. No use re-designing it. It's a lot of work. I'd at least try splitting first..

Would Tetsu0 really end this thread three polls in?Lol, What's that supossed to mean?
Anyway I would chill in the APC until you could have the chance to grab a pistol, then hijack the APC, take out it's commmunications, and drive it to the closest rebel base. Pop out and say hi.
Poor guy. his music was allright in my opinion. Terrible way to go.
And it totally dwarfs that charlie's angels chick dying.
Forgot her name. I didn't really know anything about her though.
All i know is the local radio stations have been playing like.. 4 of his songs per hour.

So you WANT the trigger teleport to be rendered?
If that's the case, then just make another brush and tie it to a func_illusionary. It won't cut vis at all, nor will it make any clipnodes, and you can see it, but you can walk right through it.
The teleport itself wont be rendered, but when you hit the illusionary you'll be teleported anyway.

Well just make sure all your triggers have only one texture on them basically. Else it can cause errors. (You usually want to use the AAA trigger anyway for triggers)
And what is the brush with the AAA trigger on it that's getting rendered... What's its function?
And what is the brush with the AAA trigger on it that's getting rendered... What's its function?
Um.. is the trigger teleport the only floor you have in the map? because anything turned into a trigger teleport isnt rendered. so put a floor beneath the teleport if there isnt one there already
As for the AAA trigger, what is it supossed to be?
And bad surface contents can be a lot of things... It could be 2 different material types applied to the same brush (ex: solid / liquid)
If you vertex manipulate at all, you might've turned a solid inside out.
Does Alt+P show anything? (Check for errors)
And if you could, post up your compile log, maybe that has any clues.

Yeah, hurry up and start mapping because there's a compo going on right now! only 20 or so days left, but you can make it! Check the link top right to see the rules.

Safe mode compile? Is that really faster than a standard compile?

Regardless, our character should beat the crap outta that combine asshole!
Well what if you teleport gordon out of sight, and use a camera sequence for the cutscene?
I think civil protection only have stunsticks....
Other than that.. the others have the pistols and hacks.

It's the "WTF" factor from other people, mixed in with the added ambient noise.
Oh, if only my room was sound proof.

Aww isnt that cute. Hot computer audrey is speaking on behalf of JeffMOD.
But if i may jeff, where do you map if it's not private?

how would you specify the track number using the cdaudio?
And.... if it's just voice, the compression now-adays is much btter than it was in '98.
I don't see a problem with the ambient generic, i just don't know how the cdaudio stuff works... Expecially if there's any small difference between the WON and STEAM versions.
