I already told you, it didn't automatically launch the game because you had to check one of the little options boxes. But hey, whatever works for you.

Elon, it really doesn't matter, it just gives you more options. You don't have to know anything more about compiling than you do normally, but you can use expert mode much better if you do.

You probably didn't check the little box that allows you to run the map after the compile.

Arcan, he's done that before. He's tried to fit in with the community, and tried to act normal, but for whatever reason, he couldn't ever continue to be like that for very long. He always did something that was incredibly stupid/annoying that would get him banned.

in Landscape, Half-Life: DM Post #201974
Being able to battle in such a huge outdoor area like that would be cool, especially considering it's Half-Life. The only problem I can see with it, as far as gameplay goes, is that there's not much cover. If you were at the top of the map, you'd pretty much have a clear shot at anybody.

Still, it looks really fun. It may be rather blocky, but in some instances that's okay. At least you're not trying to go all out with the graphics at the same time, and you're keeping r_speeds in mind.

Edit: I really wished you could have downsized those pictures. 640x480 seems plenty big for forums. If you needed any bigger, you could have used thumbnails.

Jimmi supposedly has a dynamic IP address, which is why nobody has been able to permenantly ban him. That, or he has access to 20 computers. :)

By the way, notice how Jimmi has always said "who's Jimmi?" when somebody notices who he really is? Not that I think Crazylikeafox is Jimmi, since he just misspelt it as "jimmy".

I can't say for sure it was actually Quake 3 that caused it, but I want to blame something.

in Objects triggured by explosions... Post #201928
The explosion will only happen if one of the tripmines blow up, and it just so happens that when you throw a grenade/satchel/whatever, it's really hard to not have it set off a tripmine. There's no way, short of coding, that would allow you to trigger something by just setting off an explosive weapon.

You mean, even all the peripheral's cables should be disconnected from the motherboard? I thought you meant to just disconnect the PSU power cables from everything but the motherboard.

I also just cleared the CMOS. No luck there.

Edit: I get the same result when I disconnect all the cables but the main 20+4 pin power cable.

To answer your question, no. You shouldn't have to hollow anything to make it without errors. Also, the engine doesn't distinguish between a ledge, box, wall, or anything else. It's just another brush, to it.

As with any prop model in the Half-Life engine, it doesn't have collision detection, so you will have to build it yourself. There's no way around this (although I heard there's automatic model clipping in DoD.)

You don't type in the whole directory. Just start from the models folder, and then any subfolders, like this: "models/trees/tree1.mdl" or just "models/tree1.mdl". Don't use a sprite, but still use the cycler_sprite.

in Motherboard, power supply, or both dead Post #201714
Uh... I don't think so.
You know the case's power button? It's wires connect somewhere on the motherboard. The little pins that they connect to can be activated by touching both of them at once with any metal object (screwdriver ftw).
He's talking about the connector pins on the motherboard that need to be crossed to turn the power on. It's something like this:

Pin1 Pin2
| |
_/ <-- Wire to cross the connections (the power button does the exact same thing)
Connect ONLY the PSU and motherboard - nothing else - then try activating those little pins. If the PSU starts spinning, you win. If not, either the PSU or Mobo are b0rk.
He's saying to hook the power up ONLY to the motherboard, not any devices like the hard drives, video card, ect. Connect the power pins like I showed above, and hope it starts running.

The thing is, I just tried disconnecting everything except the motherboard from the PSU, and hitting the power button. It gave off a single short, slowly rising beep (like a car alarm), and the power was cut. For a very short time, there was power getting to the CPU fan, because it started spinning. Now I just have to figure out what it means.

Edit: Diagrams suck on TWHL. I can't have more than one space in a row.

Edit 2: I just crossed the wires manually, and got the same results as when I hit the power button.

Stands? He's not talking about stands, he's talking about crossing two pins with a wire to complete a circuit that would otherwise have to be completed by a possibly faulty power button.

TheGrimReafer: RAM sticks are fine.

penguinboy: I know my power supply isn't b0rked, because I just tested it last night. It runs fine. My motherboard has a 20 pin main connector and a 4 pin 12V connector. The new power suply I got has the same main power hookups as my old one, but the difference is that it says it complies with the new ATX12V V2.2 specification. I'm not sure what my old one was, or if this would make a difference.

I'll try resetting the BIOS, if nothing else works, but it'll be a pain to redo all my settings.

ZombieLoffe: I'll try that. I guess it's possible my power button could be screwed, but I would expect more from my expensive Thermaltake Shark case. :

Exos: I'm pretty damn sure everything is plugged in right, but I'll check again. Not EVERYTHING has to be plugged up right for the computer to start up, though. I could probably go withour everything but the RAM, and it would still turn on.

Crazylikeafox: What beeps? It doesn't turn on at all, except that the lights on the card reader light up. Pressing the power button does nothing, do I don't know how the motherboard could possibly emit any sound.

TheGrimReafer: I'll be sure to check that.

in Motherboard, power supply, or both dead Post #201670
My power supply recently decided to give up on me, while giving off a foul smell. So I did what anybody would, and ordered a new one. While I was waiting for it to arrive, I decided to transfer all my components into a new case I had bought for an upcoming build.

Today, my power supply came. I hooked everything up, and prepared to turn it on. I turned the power supply on, hit the front power button... and it didn't come on. At first, I thought it was just the connectors that went to the front switch, but after trying quite a few different configurations, I think I can rule that out.

So what's going on? Is the motherboard dead too? The only reason I'm inclined to think it's not is because the lights on my card reader are on. Power is getting to the USB headers, but the motherboard will not turn on. Is there any way to test whether it's dead or not?

in putting tree models in? Post #201560
No, no no! Why do people always misunderstand this? S.O.T.E., a model won't magically turn into a sprite if you use a cycler_sprite, and I'm not suggesting that he use a sprite. And Crazy, I don't know if you're browsing for the model or what, but just type in the directory manually, an put .mdl at the end of the model's file name. Easy as pie.

Just because you get something that sounds vaguely like "OH GOD HELP ME!" when you play the file backwards, doesn't really mean anything. It does seem rather likely the hosts are still partly alive though. In Uplink, you could see a scientist that wasn't under the control of the Headcrab yet.

cycler_sprite, actually. There's also a number of other entities that will allow you to place models in your map, such as monster_generic and monster_furniture.
