I know, it really deserves much better publicity and treatment. As I said before, it's brilliant if you want to make a mod, due to SO much more versatility with the NPCs! I turned barney into otis with a model, env_customise, and monster_barney!
hardly anyone! its stupid, spirit is packed with amazing stuff.
spirit isnt small!duh, i meant no one has it!
Figured it out....don't copy one spawn point to make numerous ones. Create a seperate spawn for each place you want a spawn point. 
k ZHLT is not www.valveerc.com its www.valve-erc.com
k. 1st of all ur not usin ZHLT. its on www.valveerc.com sumwhere. secondly. token to large on line 4.this is an extract from http://www.slackiller.com/tommy14/errors.htm (BOOKAMRK THIS PAGE AS IT IS EXTREMELY HELPFUL!).
"Token to large on line 4"
This can refer to several different errors:
The "too many wads" as mentioned above. 8 wads in WC/Hammer is a good limit, more may cause this error among others. If you are using more than 8 wads you can use Wally to combine the extra wads into one custom wad.
Too long a path/name for the map or compiling tools. Only a limited amount of memory is set aside for the path/names. Solution is to move the compiling tools or map into a shallow folder.
Having a space in a path/name. Examples: frequently Program Files is part of the path name. Compiling tools do not like the space between "program" and "files". Solutions are to either use the MSDOS pathname, or to move the offending files from under the spaced folder, or put quotes " " around the whole path name in WC/Hammer so that windows uses it right. If your map has the space in its name (eg. Bob map), remove the space and change it to (Bobmap).

You just went and completely made a mockery of the topic
And now I?m doing it!
No, Seriously though, its not so much for your self, or for others, its more for the site, I think everyone has a responsibility to maintain the site's dignity and professionalism - if you ignore this and keep mindlessly spamming in the hope of increasing your post count (which I think is a very bad idea to put near one's name - its crap and demeaning)
Then you are letting the site down.

Scripting (second q.)

Hope one of these helps - if not, look in the Map Vault/Example Maps

It might just be PodBot being stupid? Try the map with real people to see if it's the spawns or the bots.
Ah, guess that's why he ain't around.
Sorry, rexgregori 
Well, try quakenet IRC? Look for C++ sections, 'fraid! I think. Maybe it's just C.

yep. i just tested it. triiger hurt set on minus whatever will heal. add a sound aswell.
Hmm, you're right. BTW who are you?
scientist. if ur usin a path_corner then type the name of the ent 2 trigger in the "fire on pass" thing. dunno much bout info_nodes (i skipped most of the i the beginning tuts. stupid me.) about you entering an area. i tihnk its a trigger_once or trigger_multiple. better ask the experts on that one though. and remember the last 2 ents i said r brush based.
Hail to you all. This is my first post here...
First quesition. How can i make trigger based on characher entering a location?
Example: when character enters a room some entity gets started....
With what trigger i can make some NPC (sientist for example) move from one location to another...
that's all for now...

Wow, that looks quite hard but I?d want to see a custom picture in mi mini mod... By the way, I?m about to release a beta for you to test, only one or two weeks (too much compiling time).
(too much compiling time).
Don?t count on me, but count on him ;).
Err... 7th said something about a trigger_hurt with a negative value, although I didn?t check that out.
How do I make on of those Xen Heal pools?
Correct Restrictions: 320x200, BMP, 256 colors
Sorry...
Sorry...
Ok. Found it out:
Find a picture you want:
Restrictions:
320x240 256 colors BMP. Name it Logo.bmp
Next Get qlumpy which was included in the HL SDK SDK/Texture Wad Tools. Then get cached.ls (Note it's LS). That's a script for qlumpy and can be found in SDK/SHELL. Now it's get a bit buggy. qlumpy is an old dos program and it caused trouble on my XP Professional.
But run Command prompt and you'll be fine.
Place both cached.ls and qlumpy on C:
Create the following folder system: C:quivermoddirgfxshell and place the logo.bmp there in shell.
Create the folder C:moddir and place a already existing cached.wad
there because qlumpy can't create wads!!! Copy Hl's or create a new one with Wally.
How to make folders? Right-click on empty space inside a drive (ex. C:)
and select New/folder and rename it.
Use command prompt and write:
C:qlumpy cached.ls
Then get the Wad in moddir and put it in the mod directory of your choice.
Wasn't so hard?
Still problems? E-mail me and I'll help.

Just finished my first map and everything is perfect except one thing. I waypointed the map and tested it with Podbot. When the sever fills up to 10 vs. 10, when it's time to respawn, like 4 - 5 bots get killed while spawing. I have plenty of spawn points placed at the bases because there are only 10 bots on a team and I placed enough for 16.
Anybody know what I'm talking about, is there any help?

Have you ever thought about appointing a long-term member or two to handle admin stuff with the site?
Can't you just say who won and not bother will all the 'marking breakdown' he normally does?
Errrr.... He?s being redirected to his own former post 7th :D. I think that Rexgregori just want to remind us about the topic... I honestly don?t know how to do it Rexgregory, I could lead you to spanish coding pages but even I don?t understand a thing there.
If you are an experienced mapper trym but if not begin mapping and reeskining and so on, it?s so cool to see the results!!!.

Tlax merit.
Almost impossible to understand in the "F" era (you know, Morbid Angel Albums follow an alphabetic progression "Abominations", the B which I can?t remember, "Covenant", the D I forgot, "Entangled In Chaos", "Formulas Fatal to the Flesh", "Gateways to Annihilation"...), impossible to understand all those Lovecraft stuff there... Mixed with arameo (arameian????) things... All those Gods, Chthulhhu, Absu, Amah-Ushumgal-Anna and so on...
I really dig Morbid Angel, wich may lead to think I am a brutal DeathMetal-Head but, well, it?s just another part :).

stusaysyo,
Yeah, this forum is for posts like yours.. but it would have been better in the Stuff or Site forum because of the replies it generated. Not your fault though
Steinin ,
Forum Help or you could try the little ? next to the smilies.
Everyone ,
Back on Topic....
We voted for the last compo, but I suspect that was rigged due to the the response we actually got !
The next compo will be decided once the results of the last have been posted.
If you have a preference for a type of Compo, then start a topic in the Site Suggestions Forum and we will be happy to explore all suggestions.
I already have a few ideas for Next year... more on that later.

I had an e-mail from atom today, and due to technical complications, he is not able to access some areas of the site and will not be able to post the Compo results for a few weeks.
I know you will all be disapointed, especially those who entered. I was lucky enough to see most of the entries, and the standard was very high. But I am not the Judge... so you will have to wait till atom gets back.
Thank you to those who entered... we have some really talented members here!!!

I have to move house and will be without a computer until the middle of December (03).
Having said that, I don't want you to stop working on stuff, I am just saying this to let you know that I won't be able to do anything till then. Please don't e-mail anything large, as I will be getting my e-mail remotely and won't be able to save stuff.
Thank you to all the members who have sent in stuff this year and helped make this a really great site. I will get the ball rolling again early in the New Year.

Well, where can we get this spirit?
As long as it's not included in the original installation of HL, or the disks it came with, we can't have a competition about it. Everybody HAS TO HAVE Access to the same resources. IT HAS TO BE THAT WAY!!!
