in No free edicts? No more! Post #256430

whats edicts?

Edicts are slots for entities .
They work just as player slots . For example : if you put the max number of player slots to 16 and the server is full , if a player comes he will automatically be kicked . The difference is that if you go over this maximum number of edicts your hl will crash .
Now, you don't have to think to edicts as a slot per entity . Just as in that forum says , a player needs 15 slots . A gun needs more than one slot . A monster needs more than one slot etc ....

Well , for this to work properly , valve should release a new version of hl1 . A tweaked hl1 , such as this edicts .
Not all the people know how to turn this feature on . And most of the hl gamers aren't mappers , and even as mappers - lots of them don't think about these things .

You know what I don't understand ? Half-Life is c++ based right ?
c++ has random numbers support , then why valve didn't include a trigger_random ?

Hi all . I have a relatively nooby problem ...
I searched for a tutorial I was sure I saw about 6 months ago on some site , but I didn't find the damn tutorial .
So I'm reqesting your help .
Here's the result I want to have without having to rotate the texture manually . I know there's a method on aligning the texture by using some technique ...

All that I remember is that you have to select the top texture :

And then the interior texture :

And there was a technique on how to align the top texture after the interior texture .
Thanks in advance . Hope somebody knows

I'm in too , altough I'm in for a long itme now ( a week , from when I got banned

) and in a week I didn't had the time to do what hlife_hotdog did .
OMG you have to got some patience there man . hlife_hotdog is winning from the beginning

Me ? me I just done some chambers and some entity works that's all . It's a good start . Still , 30+ days remaining

.

In the mean time , I have a small question . I'm using a button to trigger some stairs ( rotating stairs) . Well , before I can use that button I must go in another room to press another button . This "another room" button triggers a multisource wich is set as a master for the stairs button .
In-game story : I'm going to press the stairs button . Doesn't work . That's ok .
I'm going to press the "another room" button .
I'm going to push again the stairs button . Still doesn't work

Can you explain me why ? Thanks .

in Ati Driver .....ONNA ..... Post #255715

I will .
Unfortunately , the man who said this was extremely right : People learn from mistakes . The video card is good . The only problem was that an 9800 gtx ( or what nvidia card I don't know ) equal nvidia card cost 2 times more than one Ati . And because I'm young and didn't realise about marketing competition , I didn't have patience and bought Ati . Otherwise I would have bought Nvidia . I like Nvidia personally and I had some fears that ati is shit from the beginning . Now an Nvidia costs very low .
I'm already thinking of selling this card an buying an NVIDIA card , but my parents would murder me if I tell them this video card is bad ( I have to say , we have a low family budget sooooooooo................that explains all + that I had to wait 1 year for this video card )

The interesting fact is that "experienced" people recommended me this video card . It's true , they've never heard of VHE ....

I have XP . I will never install Vista , though ...

Methods I tried so far :

Putting an old Ati DLL in the VHE directory
Installing an old driver
Disabling the video card's driver while using VHE ( poor performance)
Buying a new video card ( fail - no money )
Entered and re-entered VHE over 100 times
Trying to work with it as it is - mission impossible 3.5
Trying to make hl1 maps in hammer 4.1 because I saw it opens rmf - mission impossible 4.1
Staying up-to-date with the drivers , maybe one month these fucking bastards will do something with this issue

Methods I didn't try :
Putting the old Nvidia card back - mission impossible -> Grid Addicted
Installing modified drivers -> I didn't see at least one until now to be up-to-date
Trying to code something by myself ( in 100 years , maybe ....)
Trying to melt down my video card with matches
Trying to freeze my video card with cold nitrogen
Trying to axe some questions to my video card
Knife to meet it
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I can use hammer 4.1 . That works .
My PC doesn't need any fixes at the moment . I performed 3 consecutive reinstallations a month ago . I'm protected and all that kind of stuff.

How can I fix the fucking problem if that's what I've been doing for the past 2 months .

[EDIT]

I thought somebody more experienced could not neccesary offer me a solution , but at least explain me in depth what's the actual problem .
Somebody like penguinboy , he's talented at coding and that stuff.
Or Luke , he's a troll . Trolls always know all .
Don't think I'm screaming for help. I know I made about 2 threads about this in the past , but on other non-mappingHL forums nobody will respond to me .

Ok I downloaded Ati Catalyst 8.9 , which says it has OpenGL support . Fucking nooo ?! I installed it and hammer 3.5 still doesn't let me to select in the 3D view . Oh my god , time expires and I can't enter the compo ....

Does anybody know a good solution ? Maybe somebody is modifying these drivers to work with openGL application . In this case , do you know any up-to-date site that releases modified drivers ?

in Wow, AMD's Cinema 2.0 is amazing! Post #255439

I don't want games too look that good. It would be too hard to map.

I strongly agree.
It's hard to me to get used to the new ( for me it's new but I know even the source engine is old now ) Source engine . I like half-life 1 graphics and I just get exalted when I know there's a powerful active hl1 mod community ( that's Sven Coop ! )

You know , everyone can have the will to play something like that , but not everyone has the power and the money ...
Maybe someday these companies will realise that making a game ultra-realistic isn't the principal goal ..... How ? Who the fuck will have money for crossfire\SLI , huge case , huge cooling sistem , huge hdd and huge bills ?
Yes , that's not the path for a green computer . These experiments should remain experiments and should not be produced into some game\application and then be selled ....

I would really like if more people would map for hl1 ...... I don't know why , but it sounds fun

. 10 years for this engine , and maybe 20 more , just for nostalgia !

[EDIT] Yay I have an Ati Radeon Hd 4850 !!! But I promise that if a game with this kind of graphics appear , I won't buy it .

You know why I said greater than 50 000 km/h ? Because that's possible .
How can you even say "greater than speed of light" ? I suppose you know that's sort of impossible .

And because we are human beings The Hunter , we all know when we are talking about space and rocket speeds that when I wrote 50.000 km/h I wasn't referring to 50 km/h .... If I did , the ".000" were pointless.

I don't know much, but i know you're talking out your arse.

50k = 50000
50,000 = 50000
50.000 = 50

as the majority of the earth's population is a waste of flesh

There's no waste . Learn the conservation theory .

There will be no black hole . You need a huge star to do that .

In our solar sistem that's impossible , because the star is medium size . 5 billion ( i don't know if this is correct , but I think 1 billion = 1000 million in english ... in romanian is "miliard' ) years in the future , it will transform in a white dwarf , and we will die because of the low temperature .

[EDIT] Oh , I forgot to say . You need lots of mass to create a black hole . A black hole is basically a thing that remained from a star , but it generates a lot of gravity .
