Hahaha. Thats not the main reason, hunt.
I, unfortunately can't map with Vista,Get a decent OS.
I use WON HL. It loads maps much faster in my opinion.True! Thats exactly why is still use WON HL for mapping!
Btw, Kane will turn your dreaded ion cannon into scrap metal!
So , Does anybody know the special names for entities ? Please tell me , or give m a link .Dude, Daubster gave you the link to those special entity names in the other thread so wtf are on about!
Sheesh. Thats extremely badly done. Think of the off grid vertices.
There are better ways.

Yes it does. To get water/slime/lava act like water/slime/lava, you need to turn the entity into func_water. If you don't, the water will cast shadows which is rediculous of course.
Also note that if you have multiple brushes that make up the water area, you need to func_water each individual brush, otherwise only one brush will be visible as water, while the other brushes dissapear. I guess this is your problem. So take each individual brush and turn each one in into a func_water.

Everyone has that problem, Valve screwed up again. You'll have to wait for a SDK update.
Yes, its an annoying issue, but there's a fix:
Go into camera mode, draw a line in one of the grid views. From now on you can navigate in the 3D view.

Thanks to those who voted for HL:UE!
Makes me wanne finish version 2.0 (o yeah!) faster! 
Don't revive old threads.
Wtf.
So this model started as a simple cillinder primitive? No extra primitive's (except the eyeballs it looks like).
Looks like you're only using extrude, inset and... whats the other one...
Give me those skills!

I don't know, but it made me laugh. 
Yup. Its freakin hillarious.
Really?
What the.
Edit: it works. Whattha!
You still need to specify a locked sound though.
But neat!

Rim, that metallic bal in your avatar look like the eye balls in the final battle with GlaDOS in Portal, you know, like the orange eye ball that goes like:
Who are you?
What is that?
O what's that?
What's that?
What is THAT?!
O that thing has numbers on it.
etc

Having a door stay locked doesn't need a master.
You need to name the door.
Set speed, lip and if its an rotating door, deg to 0.
Select a Locked Sound and done.

I still wanna see this in TWHL3:

Camtasia Studio is what you need.
You record your screen with it while modelling, then in the editor you cut out some bits and then you export it as a wmv or whatever you want.
I has full version.

Hey rimrook, ever consider making a time lapse video of how you model things? It'd be cool to see a multi-hour model take shape in a few minutes.Yes please!
Physics gun eh? So its for Source? In that case: wrong forum.
Moved.

I guess I should just mention I have Vista
- Make sure you actually see something in the camera window.
- Make sure you're in selection mode.
- Make sure Textured is activated in the camera window.
You deleted your texture? Thats your fault, not Windows's.
Check your bin.
Check your bin.
Sheesh. What the hell is the big deal? Just take your texture, load it into photoshop or whatever, and shrink it down to 512x512. Then recompile it into a new or existing wad. Load that wad into Hammer, re-apply the texture in your map, save, export, compile, upload and done!
I got plenty of space on my website, no waiting lines and pretty high speed download, so if you guys need a high speed mirror, im willing to provide it.
The default texture memory size for HL when it was released was 2 MB, not 8 MB. 8 MB is more than enough these days and its the default size in my Compilator.
A brush outside world could also indicate an invalid brush.
Finding it may be hard for you, but see if you have any odd shaped geometry in your map, otherwise put the map in the problems maps vault and someone will have a look at it.

Those are not zhlt, they are known as the q tools, which are horribly outdated, so you need to upgrade.

Similar, but easier, designed for HL1 games and mods.
xD.
You need to use a multisource.
Here's a thread with some similar, see if you can learn from it.

Use the Kane Tools.
Cut off bits you don't need.
Or:
Devide the texture into multiple smaller textures. 786 is kinda unusual for HL, you may want to resize to 1024x512.
So take the 1024x512 texture and devide it into:
4 x 512x256
Then place them in the map like this (where # is 1 512x256 texture):
## -- 2 x 512x256
##

Equals to one 1024x512 texture.

Place a multisource.
Name it ms_main_event.
Let it target the event you wanted to trigger.
Have your buttons target the multisource (ms_main_event).
Thats it. Not at all complex.:)

MuzzleFlash go to bed .Nope. Gotta work in my big ass Uplink Extended update!
Hunter totally smashed Striker's posts to bits!
God, another cs map? Ugh. Im tired of cs maps.
Hypersnap - Mario Land 2006
Faulty entity setups could crash HL as well, like having a path_corner have the same name in the name field and next stop target field.
Tetsu0 ftw. 
zOMGROFLMFAOGTFOBBQ!Ok that's just rediculous.
Is your truck a func_tracktrain?
What?
Anyway, enough laughter.
You don't compile nod file, they are automatically created when you run your map for the first time. Nod and nrp file are created by the game and store information between different air and normal nodes, which are used by monsters to navigate through a level, like a human grunt running away from the fight to reload his weapon.
Place some nodes close to pillars or something (info_node) and some human grunts and see what happends when they run out of ammo and need to reload.
Nod and nrp files are placed in the mapsgraphs folder.
Of course, nodes are only usefull in singleplayer maps.
