sry I took so long getting back here. I've been out of town alot... anyway. Strange thing. I went back and tried it again two more times it didn't work. I came back in town for a weekend and tried it again just because I really wanted it and BANG, it worked. LOL whatever was going on ... I don't know. But thanks for the replies. By the way I did have -dev on and always did. I'll be damned if I know what was up. :

Ok, I read the tutorial (15 times) and I couldn't get the dev_overview 1 to work. It just stayed in the normal view of the map. So I came to the forums and read the whole GRRR...overviews thread. No help there. Although it did seem to indicate in that thread that I needed to be running my map in half-life with the latest patch before steam. So I reinstalled half-life to the old sierra file and updated with the last patch. Still no luck.

Everytime I have tried this I have been in open-GL 1024x768 (like instructed in the tut) I have tried this from steam running cs 1.6 and cz and from the old sierra running cs 1.5 and half-life with the 1.1.1.0 patch (the last before steam) and I am not able to get that overview view of the map. I have tried both dev_overview 1 and dev_overview 2 neither work. I have launched the map both from in game and from the start>run cmd line. Help!! I really want an overview for my map and can find no other instructions anywhere on the web. This is the only tut I have found. Any ideas anyone?? :nuts: :nuts:

OMG I am so frustrated. I have followed all of this. I even went and reinstalled half-life from my old cd because "Dizzy Devil" said

No regular Serria Half-Life and the lateset patch before Steam.

I keep putting in dev_overview 1 and dev_overview 2 and get absolutely nothing. Yes, I am in open GL at 1024x768 and I have tried this in cs1.5, cs1.6, cz, and the old sierra hl with the hl1.1.1.0 update. What am I doing wrong??? I really really want an overview. I would even email the .map file to someone if they felt like they could get it done for me. Help, I'm starting to get desperate.

By the way I did run the map from the start>run> c:sierrahalf-lifehl.exe -dev +mapname and also tried it from the c:sierracounterstrikecstrike.exe -dev +mapname (neither worked) It loads my map but can't get the damn dev_overview 1 or 2 to do squat. :nuts: :nuts:
