I'm still having this problem even when I disable $game_exe. After running the map in CS:S, The entire computer is bogged down. I looked in the task manager, and Hammer.exe is taking up every last bit of my RAM, even though I'm not doing anything in it.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Here's mine
My background was an image someone linked to in the IRC. I don't think the image dementions were 4:3, but I'm too lazy to fix them

That sounds like an error on behalf of the compiler program itself.
Try making the .QC from scratch (the tutorial mentioned above will help) and compile with it. If you still get errors, then there's probably a problem with the .SMDs you exported (which can hopefuly be fixed in XSI), or you made a syntax error. If the problem resolves itself, then cheers!

Perhaps starting a vote or thread where people can discuss what sort of competition they want would result in a better turnout, especially regarding those measely two Source entries 
The $ sign needs to go before the "cd," otherwise StudioMDL won't recognize that line as a command. $cdmaterials, not cd$materials
"cd$texture" isn't a valid .QC command. "$cdmaterials" is what you want.
I compile my models the old-fashioned way: With the actual .QC and StudioMDL. At the bottom of BJ's compiling steup tutorial, he explains the process of creating a .QC file and compiling with it. Although I don't use GUIStudio, this method is sure to work every time.

If human nature was made by God, then he must have made one helluva mistake. 
I know that the acutal clip size is handled in weapon_smg1.txt in the modname/scripts/ folder, and I think that maximum amunition capacity is handled in config.cfg. I'll look into the max ammo capacity for ya.
Wow, that's a considerable improvement 
Ah hah! Found it:
In weapon_smg1.cpp, there is a line near the top of the code that reads
I set it to 0.005 and emptied my clip in a tenth of a second . Just don't forget to build up the Source code after you have made the apropriate changes!
In weapon_smg1.cpp, there is a line near the top of the code that reads
float GetFireRate( void ) { return 0.075f; } // 13.3hzThe value within the brackets is your fire rate. I think that the value is per-second. So a value of 1 would return 1 shot-per-second, a value of 0.5 would return 2 shots-per-second, and so on.

It would be nice to link to the images as it makes reading the posts below them impossible until they fully load. However, I'm not complaining.
Some of those models look really nice (the weapons, in particular). Did you model them or get them from somewhere?

Yeah. I think that's how it works.
I'm not entirely sure, but I think it can be used to target specific entities being triggered by the same trigger, but at different times.
Add an output from the trigger_once where "OnTriggered," target "boom," setting off something like "explode" or "fire," or whatever the event you want to have happen is called. Needless to say, add no delay, if you want to hurt the player! 
Me:^LOL!
I want to get in your ass.
God:
Why do you want it?
Me:
Because it's perfect!
God:
Good reason. It is, eh? Yes, the ALICE series has a perfect operational record.
No problemo 
Ah, I know how to fix this; it's easy!
For some reason, selecting a new sprite material removes the .SPR extention from the name of the sprite in the file path of the env_sprite's properties. My guess is that Valve forgot to code it into Hammer, and just worked around it. All you need to do is add it back on. For instance, after picking the sprite titled "sprites/glow03", make the file path in the sprite's properties "sprites/glow03.spr," minus the quotes, of course.

Did you make all those models?
About the models: When you're picking your world models in the model viewer, there are a few tabs on the lower right of the viewer that let you see what entity it should be used with (I can't remember what the tab itself is called, I'm at school right now). The boxes checked next to the entity types are what you can use.
When portal VIS takes 3 days, it may be a result of invalid brushes. Make sure that all of your geometry is completely convex. You can also try deleting any additions you recently added and compile again.
EDIT: Ahh, it's the "Info" tab. The info tab will also tell you the avalible animations to choose from, if you want to use any.

Oh shit, I thought I was posting in the Source forum 
Which is sort of odd considering the title of the thread.
My mistake.

Kasperg already told you how to :
Use "Fit," then make the X scale value equal to the Y value.

I've been cnavasing the Source code for the past 15 minutes and can't find anything other then the actual controls for sprint. I'll keep looking and let you know if I find anything.
Damnit! I was thinking about entering a Source map but thought I wouldn't make a trophy
I R enterin in teh next one.

Also make sure it's a reflective texture (most are, even sand, but are very faint. The Combine Citadel wall texture is a good one). Cubemaps won't be all that apparent unless there's a strong source of light in the room. Finally, sometimes, cubemaps won't appear after compilation. Reloading the map should do the trick.
Damnit, I thought it would replace my score 
It would seem that way
Ahh, I see.
I'll see if it makes a difference with it . It's somewhat hard to tell as the color of the gun is black, and most of the areas I play-tested it in were open with white-ish skies, or dark Ravenholm maps.

If this map is an auto-save, try saving it as the original .VMF and then compiling that one.

I'm not sure I understand what it is you want me to do. Are you telling me to kick up the contrast on the reflections a bit?
Hm.. is it possible to make a real-time reflection on surfaces other than water.
That would be mighty costly in performance though... =/

@Penguinboy: You should use SourceRecorder
Mr. Wright is a very good mapper!
Here's the latest version, which now includes a world model, so the cops will be holding Colt1911s too! Just overwrite the existing files, and you're good to go.
I'm still working on its texture and alignment with the hands. It will be more acurate in the next installment.

Cool. You should replace the HL2 Crowbar with that
Is that a picture of part of Falling Water, Kasperg?
Are you going to delete any of the bots, or is TWHL3 close enough that that's pointless?
Just wondering.

You mean... you don't remember the password to your Steam account? HL2 and CS:S don't use CD keys.
If so, then that sucks :

WMP suits my needs anyway.

@J3r3my: Thanks! I'll look into making it more powerful. I'm not sure if directly altering skills.cfg will end up defaulting to the original values after I restart the game, though, as what happens when you alter bullet dammage in the console. I'll give it a shot (no pun intended )!
@Caboose: This model (the view model) would not serve well as a world model. It's far too high poly (over 2500). Additionally, it has the hands attached to it which I can't have, as well as the entire front and right side polygons deleted for optimization.
What I'll do is model the world model in two parts: A detailed one for up-close, and a level-of-detail model for distances. After all, I have those guys with TNT2s to worry about

Oh well Albeit, it'd be hard to get reference pictures of a gun that's nearly 100 years old.
I had no good reference for the texture work (The one in the download, and... well... the one in the first post, for that matter ). Still, though, I'm very pleased with how the gun has turned out.
Now it's time to begin work on the world version of the gun!

Holy hell. 5-hour-long compiles? That's got to be unbearable 
Downloading the latest version now!

Yep, that's what I did.
My problem is that I need to alter aforementioned script files to reference sounds you'd hear in, for instance, the reload sequence, but I can't do that
Oh well, I'm going to go learn how to make a Source Mod and start from there.

Horray!
If things continue to work out so well, I'll begin work to replace that SMG too. I'll see if I can get a better firing sound for both. Saddly, I can't add my own sounds in other than replacing the existing sound files as modding Half-Life 2 won't let me override the existing script files in the .GCF, so I imagine that the reload sound for that part of the new SMG won't work out well D:

I have the beta version of the gun avalible for testing. Here you go!
I've done a bunch of work on the texture, and added the firing sound from the USP. It's much more satisfting than that awful HL2 pistol sound!
Let me know what you all think!

Wrong forum.
The only suggestion I have is to make the map 2 maps. I'm sorry I can't be of much help, but I don't map for GoldSource.

F9, perhaps?
Yeah, I see what you mean. Perhaps a paralax map may help, as well as bumpmapping it a little more?
Oh, and is the latest version of this map avalible in the vault where you posted the original version? I haven't taken a look at this map yet D:
