Seems to just be some sort of bhopping multiplayer deathmatch mod.

The button must target the multi_manager, and not the door directly. Also, the door should have an empty 'name' field.

Place a multi_manager entity in your map and give it a name. Now, set the door's 'master' keyvalue to the name of the multi_manager. Now, make the button target the multi_manager. Now, when the player steps up to the door, it should open.

No, please! Oh, no no no! I'm tired of those guys who make maps for Half-Life, and then uses on-screen text messages for dialouge! It may work for a few games that have the proper reasons, and mission breifings or other stuff that just wouldn't make sense if you use voice acting, but come on!

I hate to bring continuing arguments to the surface, but...
What kind of power armor?

I will, I referenced the batteries 100s of times. Also, how logical would it be with a wall mounted box spewing out armor peices at you?
Really, imagine that you walk up to a box sitting on the wall, presses a button, and suddenly you get crushed by helmets and chestplates.

No, but I'm guessing that's why Urby, the one leading this project and who can do whatever with this project, thought when excluding the H.E.V-Suit in that post some pages ago.

Also, please stop being so ironic all the time.

The reason not to use the H.E.V suit, is to have a reason to use custom viewmodel arms, and remove all of those voice lines.

If you want to, I can give you a green H.E.V-Suit reskin I med earlier for a mod, until I changed so you don't have the suit in it.

It shouldn't affect the viewmodel, it is silent (exept for a few bleeping sounds), it allows you to use battery power for armor, and most importantly, we can just say it's a powered security guard vest or something if anyone asks.

Or we could use the powered combat vest from Opposing Force. It doesn't have arms, so it shouldn't interfere with the Barney viewmodels.

Of course not... Tough, VOX sounds like a text-to-speech program to me. I know all the files have allready been extracted from the program, but someone on this planet must know what program Valve used. If it was a program to say, it might have been a real voice actor who tried to sound like a tts. We will never know...

Well, I can think of a story.
Thousends of years ago, war raged the planet.
To bring peace, archiects met to build one building. A building, wich would sombolize the collaboration of all mankind.
And then, some random silent guy who bhopped like a jerk ran into the place and climbed to tower like he owned the place.
And everyone lived happily ever after.

I don't play games like Dota 2 and all those other fantasy games.
By the way, isn't Source 2 that engine Valve is still working on, and that haven't even been confirmed to be released. Besides, I bet that Dota 2 Hammer editor is exactly the same as the standard for every other good singleplayer Source game.

From the creators of "The cake is not a lie" and "This is not a game" comes: "This is not a tower". A game with countless (0.07) hours of gameplay, with one new gameplay element: Looking at a sign that says "this is not a tower" until you get bored and quit! Fun for the whole family! Avaivable at Cream Digital Games this summer (we don't specify when or what "this summer" is).

I thought the ground floor would be equal to the chapter "Anamoulos Materials" from Half-Life. No combat, just some sightseeing and some scripted sequences to make the player feel good. :)

Idea for lobby script:

Scientist and Security Guard talking:
Scientist: Have you seen my pet headcrab? He's run away again.
Security Guard: You still have that beast? I thought you'd got rid of it!
Scientist: Of course not!
Security Guard: Well I swear, if I see it I'll shoot it.
Scientist: If you do that, I'll make sure this job is no longer yours!

I started to play Half-Life after the era of WON. So I don't know what's so special about it. If anything, it's more buggy and worse gameplay then the more updated Steam versions.

People, this is GoldSource/Spirit. The very point of the engine Valve made in the first place, was to make creative stuff out of brushes. Like planes, and trains, and other stuff that ends with -ane.

Wow! This is awesome. I've got the scripted voice acting done and... Just wow. It's so weird when you hear your own voice coming out of the mouth of a low-poly scientist NPC, even touch I lowered the pitch and speech rate to better fit the model, just wow! I've still got the use sentences and outro speech left, but anyway, it's cool and weird at the same time.

EDIT: My map is completely done now, with custom sentences and everything. I'm just going to pack it up, and then send it in.
