You should get a sound editor. Google Audacity, it's a free and, if I'm not mistaken, open source, audio editor.

in Texture Lump, Post #45074
WARNING: Texture lump "xxxxxx" not found
This usually means that you changed the wads installed in WC/Hammer or their locations after beginning the level. Go back and make sure the WAD carrying the texture is still in WC/Hammer when you compile, or when you remove the brush the texture was on. Also make sure you aren't running an -onlyents compile by mistake. But it could also be the too many textures problem or it could be that old "too many wads" mistake.
Have you done any of that? Do you have more than 8 wads, more than 100 textures in a single level, did you have a WAD in hammer and move it or delete from the list?

Since my web page ain't working, and my MSN file send didn't work either, It should be back in the morning so you can d/l some textures.

I can also map, if need be.

Sites don't die because of Spammers.
Sites die because the members grow up and get a life!
Not true. I'm probably older than you think, not some little kid who still has a ways to go, have a great social life, but I still map and develop game stuff. I'm not going to be 'growing up and getting a life' any time soon because I've already done that. Level design is a hobby/endeavor/career that many adults work on, not just 14 year olds. When life takes over and I have no time to map, then I'll leave, but it certainly wont kill the site.

I haven't been here too long, or gotten to know many people, but in the short time I've been here, I've noticed a decline in quality in the MV, Forums, and such.

I'm guilty of being a bit hostile about replying to questions, I admit. However, I ask myself if people have eyes sometimes...I saw 6 AllocBlock questions in the same two days, only spaced by a couple other forum posts.

the HD models replace the default ones in HL, OpFor, etc. Installing it will make all of your maps use those models instead of the ugleh LD ones. If it doesnt work, run the BS HD model installer and make sure it says the HD content is installed.

You can rent suits, though it might be difficult to find one as ugly as the G-Man's ;) .

As for teh HEV and Armor, find a vest for the armor, make some cardboard-ish little round pad things, draw teh BM logo and 'SECURITY' on the back, make a nametag, etc etc., and for the HEV, find some cardboard, make the shape, and spraypaint it orange?

The SD Gman looks cooler. (or one of the many...) His eyes are bloodshot and it looks creepy. The Science and Industry update SD administrators look cool...id like a G-man with HL textures on that model.

in How much different is Steam? Post #44612
Steam will copy your WON install into a Steam cache and leave your WON one to do whatever with (move files, mods, etc.)

It does not modify the original WON, and leaves it untouched.

If it doesnt copy all of your mods, manually place them in SteamAppsusernamehalf-life or counter-strike .

in trashcan problems Post #44583
yeah. NEVER USE FIT. unless you know it would work well. OR ELSE. IT WILL STRETCH TEXTURES TO LOOK LIKE PURE AND UTTER $H!T.
Fit is helpful on walls to automatically align the textures to fit, hence the name. Just be sure to set the X value to 1 or the desired value or it looks bad. Fit is also very helpful on signs, again, just make sure to keep appropriate stretch dimensions.

You can use Control-M to open the Transform tool, too, which is very helpful for getting certain rotations.

Be nice, Anon. It's hard to learn all these techniques when you first start mapping, flaming people and calling them noobish isnt very helpful or useful.

Make sure teh little 'TL' on your toolbar on the top is indented. If it's not working, you'll have a hard time mapping in the future...its an indispensable tool.

Mr. Anonymous, you dont even have an account, so it makes you look more n00bish if you come in and start flaming people out of nowhere.

If the LTBR buttons are greyed out, make sure youve clicked on a face first.
