Welcome to TWHL.

Click Here.
then read the following tutorials after it.

Feel free to ask for assistance if/when you get stuck.

Note:
Those tuts are for HL1, but the principal is the same.

People won't make your map for you.

here's some relatively newer ones from me.

Shiney
The sun was just setting really nicely in the reflection on the windows.

Gangster
Quite possibly the best picture i've ever taken purely due to the fact that it was incidental; yet turned out to be the perfect gangster pose.

Reflection
Sunny day, we were all slumped on the grass like dead bumblebees.

KFC
She is.

Hunteee
Just to get 2 new changes out of the way in 1 photo - me with my new short hair, and with my new dual-monitor set up. Yes, I am aware short hair makes me look 12

why does it need to have crashed? Can't Aperture Labs have built their own space ship, modelled on a sea-bound ship to avoid suspicion?

in (Speculate) Whats aboard the Borealis? Post #251472
There's undoubtedly going to be an escape from the sinking ship section near the end.
oh man.. maybe a submarine.. One of the few things source lacks is decent underwater physics. I want to see displacement of water so that hollow objects can travel through water without just filling up to the water line.

unlikely, but the Borealis is a ship...

New weapons are a must, and not just a cop-out like the Magnisson device.

As for the story... I agree with Strideh.
They were competing companies, so Aperture Labs were presumably working on some sort of matter teleportation technology. Whether this is simply what gave birth to Portals, I do not know.

Here's hoping for a second Resonance Cascade which will connect with a new border world. Even Xen would be okay, as long as we get some more wildlife.

And really I expect we will.. There's only so much they can do for NPCs on the Borealis. Obviously there will be Combine, as it's a race to whatever is there, but there won't be any citizens or Vortigaunts. There's going to have to be something to mix it up.

Edit:

Just proof-reading what i wrote, i noticed that I said the Borealis was a ship. What if it's not simply a boat, but a space ship?

in hl2 in hl1 mod Post #251432
Further, why do you feel the need to show 20 screenshots of the exact same shit?

Everything you've shown in this thread could be summed up in 1 screenshot.

You have no skill as a mod leader,
You have no realistic goals,
Your mapping ability is nowhere near good enough to produce anything even resembling HL2.

And instead of ignoring direct question like you did last time you proposed this joke of a mod - try answering some.
HL1 cannot handle the open environments of HL2. Whats your plan for when it comes to the "Highway 17" and "Sandtrap" chapters?
And several others.

And the legality issue? You do realise that everything you're showcasing is simply stolen content?

Really cool thing is - if you want the headcrab in-game, just start up the creature creator in windowed mode and click and drag the .png into the game.
It actually works. Creature information is stored in .pngs :3

Don't download this, guys.

If you do, don't make an account.

I've recently discovered that it's leaked. Wasn't supposed to be released till the 17th.

All accounts created before the 17th have/will be banned. I don't know to what extent, whether it simply requires using a different e-mail adress to create an account when it's officially released or whether more severe measures have been taken, but to be on the safe side, i suggest you wait.

of all the examples to choose from.

You can make physics objects out of brushes in hammer by making them, then selecting them and tying them to a func_physbox entity.

otherwise you'll have to learn to model.

If so, how?
If not, how can i rig up my own server?
