Use dynamic lights. They're calculated real time and not baked.
where's the nearest cubemap? perhaps the recflect maps are switching
I'd say check for leaks and make sure your have a cubemap in that room
I believe it's north somewhere from my house. About a day's travel by horseback.
It's uhh... somewhere...
You gotta try to keep it to one map.

Please try to keep your level somewhat linear. Go in, complete the objective, get out.
You can create a separate section within your map that mimics those events however.

I meant to say that you can keep working on your map as much as you wish. Right now, the hub map isn't in the google drive because I'm still working on it. Why do you need the hub rmf?
The best solution is the one that works
I'm still in love with these shaders. Found a nice little beach area so scenic i made a new desktop background:

make as many changes as you wish!
I'm streaming some of my mapping progress on twitch right now!
Was streaming...
Thanks for watching guys!
Here's more of the bathroom though - https://youtu.be/UjRbTkjc3X4

The Source engine itself is free. you can charge for your games. You give a percent of the sale price to valve when you sell your game.
Source is free.
If you want to make a game, you need to code everything else from scratch.
You can even convert your map from Goldsource to Source

Haha oh god it fits underneath my name 
I'm an Electrical Engineer. I do industrial control systems mainly for burners and boilers. I program a lot, but also design systems from scratch and do some install work / tech support.

Could it be your graphics card / drivers?
Over 11 actually...
It's how long i've been on this site. I don't practice every day and I still learn things almost every time I open Sledge or Hammer.
I've gotten quite good with the tools though my creativity has fallen off since I've started.

Whatever output you made to toggle the wall, duplicate it and add a 5s delay.
You can choose to ignore below - this is another possible solution.
You can use the func_brush entity. Give them all a "texture" render mode of 0. Then instead of just toggling the faces you can manually hide or show them.
When you want to show the die faces, send the "alpha" command of 255.
When you want to hide the die faces, send the "alpha" command of 0.
Then after each button press, you randomly show one, but then hide all after 5s delay:
On press > func_wall_toggle_1 > alpha > 0 > Delay: 5s
On press > func_wall_toggle_2 > alpha > 0 > Delay: 5s
On press > func_wall_toggle_3 > alpha > 0 > Delay: 5s
On press > func_wall_toggle_4 > alpha > 0 > Delay: 5s
On press > func_wall_toggle_5 > alpha > 0 > Delay: 5s
On press > func_wall_toggle_6 > alpha > 0 > Delay: 5s

I checked out the ModDB and I'm impressed!
The mapping looks superb and you really capture the spirit of the Black Mesa complex. I really hope you guys can keep the same visual quality throughout the mod, I'll be looking for this one to be released for sure!

Don't feel embarrassed at all! I've been working with GoldSource for more than 10 years.
I see your coding work and you're making a mod from scratch - that impresses the hell out of me and you're doing fantastic work!

Looks great, SSB! Nice and curvy!
Watchout for clipnodes though.
TWHL Hub WIP - 30% probably 
Mainly entity work and general layout. I know i'm slacking hardcore.
Bonus!

XD Well then
have you tried the sledge editor? Developed in-house by Penguinboy. I use it daily and highly recommend it. Check it out
Hmm... That is quite annoying.
Have you tried restarting hammer?
Does it do the same thing if you load a new map?

Ctrl-B force-snaps objects to the grid.
however they don't snap to centers, they snap to vertices.
Lower your grid setting and see if that helps at all

What's the initial speed set to?
The fgd you use in hammer / sledge / jackhammer / whatever world tool you're using. That references the new entities that were coded and packed into the dll.
So you want to make a mod or whatever and put the dlls in the right folder. IDR the proper ones right now, i'm at work... but check your Half-Life folder and see where the dlls are.

ok then we should probably make an XP farm and spam enchanted books until we get enough blast protection ones.

there's a slime chunk in one of the strongholds i forget which one though...

You're probably gonna need to give the V_model a head bone with the same parent structure as the player model.
Assuming that you're the one actually doing the modelling, might be able to open the V_model and player model at the same time in whatever program you're using and just do a copy-paste, re-parent.

I like the second pic - it seems a more natural transition between the floors than the first.
png because it is very smaller than jpegno, not really... PNG's are lossless and Jpegs are compressed.
google translate is good but it's not great. some ideas might get lost in translation.
Is there a new wave of good mappers coming to TWHL lately?I certainly think so! It's refreshing to see new styles
Hallways look good! What else do you have?
Sledge has no issues handing floating points. I'm serious when I say its a superior tool to Hammer
cool! glad to see it all worked out
when we get all the submissions.
then i need to go in and tie them all together
then there will be an alpha release

It seems that some special letters are messed upThat'll be fixed in the next website revision
Do you mean to take your existing wall and cut it into tetrahedrons?
You can try, but the geometry might be difficult to work with.
I would recommend keeping geometry as simple as possible and only use the tetrahedrons when other methods fail you.

You're quite welcome. They're pretty complex, yes, but have patience when you're doing your vertex manipulations and you should be fine.
How do you scale the current force?
Nevermind, I forgot how to read
Nevermind, I forgot how to read
the speed of the current is affected by how much you stretch the texture
The 4 vertices dont create a flat plane. You'll probably have to manually triangulate the faces. It sucks, but it's just the limitation of the engine. Also, you can manually check for errors before compiling with Alt-P.
Whipped up a quick example for you because I'm TERRIBLY bored at work right now.
Clicky for example

So everything is fine now? good!
That command line doesn't seem to make sense given your compile log.
Try using The Compilator.
It makes custom compilations REALLY easy.
You might want to upgrade your compile tools as well. The ones you're using are better than the vanilla Valve ones, but The VHLT tools are far superior.
