While on the topic of hL2 MAPPING could somon tell me ho to make combine police men not attact the player. They do not attack the other npc's cos' of the AI-Releationship

OHHH yeah! Thx. I forgot we had one

But as I said, I am not giving it away to cap people, people show me their best maps and the Best on wins. I know there are ALOT of good mappers on TWHL, and one of them must be instrested. And they can start the mod again and have a new story, however, still call it Shortlife, to remember me.

Only Good mappers will get this mod.

Or half life 1. What do you mean by "normal people" ?!
Nah habboi, somone else might be looking to create a mod, and Shortlife is the place to start. Also they get the e-mail shortlife@planethalflife.com

If you can remember, I was working on a mod, called Shortlife. I cannot keep up with the collage work and do Shortlife at the same time, so, I am Giving away the mod, to anyone who wants to carry it on. You also get the website too, But I will not give it away to newbs. I want to see some work before I give it away, I want it to be good and suceed! Make a map, for HL2, make it good, put it in the map volt, tell me, The best map wins and the prize is Shortlife. Take or leave it. See if I care

No, it is not a movie, read the story on the web site. All the rooms shown are storage rooms, and the boards with the offic textures on...they are suppose to be spair wall boards (if that is a word : ).

Umm, yeah, I did mean all the shelves. INCLUDING book shelves. sorry bout that

Don't you mean Books not Bokes

Apart from the shelf, I forgot about that, but everything else is not a prefab. If you can see the tool box and the can of coke? They are models from Blue Shift. The pet cages. I made them. The electricity box. I made it. The Lights. I made them. The door, the airvent, even the crates, I made them. That is the truth. I swear it. Please, they are not prefabs. Never, not in a million years. I cross my heart. THEY ARE NOT PREFABS

hmm, try google, type half life prefabs and then look for somthing called ejoop : prefab land

Okay Okay, I have now turned them into Jpeg, so, what do you think of the maps now?

more than three posts, more like 12 posts since the last chapter

Okay, I'm sorry. By the way Habboi? How long did it take you to type that?

Please, If any one has a better way of texturing, please tell me!

Those are the exact words I used. That in my dictionary is asking a question! HOW IS THAT SPAMMING!

GRR!! I hate you so much! Why the fuck did you say it was spamming?! YOU FREAK! I mean you are so stupid "Well I for one am pissed off with your mindless spamming of dead threads. Stop it." HOW THE FUCKING HELL IS ASKING A FUCKING QUESTION ABOUT FUCKING SHIT TEXTURES IN HALFLIFE2 SPAMMING? (I love Halflife2, but mapping is crap) BUT NO, LETS CALL IT SPAMMING COS I'M A TWAT!

You know what, Why don't you fuck off Seventh, I fucking hate you! fucking GEEK! What are you gonna do? Ban me? See if I care? I won't come here any more!! FUCK OFFF

ummm, Hello?! I am asking for help on this subject. How is that spamming?!

Here is a little bit more info about the mod

HalfLife = Shortlife is a Halflife1 mod. In The mod you play as Dr. Breen, the administrator from Black Masa. Remember? Good. Anyway, you play as Dr. Breen and have to escape Black Masa! Who can you trust, well, maybe 2 or 3 barneys but what do they know?! Your Freinds are splatterd against walls and ceilings! What the hell is going on?! Find out when you Play Halflife = Shortlife!

short-life is a mod created for Half-life 1, where the player plays as DR. Breen, Gordon's administrator. To understand who Dr. Breen is, play Half-life 2, then play this mod. Short-life will be released in chapters, around once a month each. Each chapter is 4 levels each, so expect to


complete each chapter quicky, but once all the chapters are released, we will release a full mod, with all the chapters in one. The first chapter is set moments before Gordon pushes his test subject into the beam, and you have just entered the storage level, 30 floors underground...


We here at Shortlife.com really don't want to tell you the whole story at once, but overall, it will be released in chapters once a month. Chapters are 4 levels each, and they will be avalible for download here at Shortlife.com, hosted by GameSpy.

What type of game play will we be facing?



Shortlife Game play is almost the same style as Half life 1, it's not one of those mods where There is a grunt round every bend. Monsters are placed in the best places, some times you will get a fright, other times you might expect what's round that corner...


Are the maps narrow or wide, what type of areas will I be fighting in?


You will be fighting in a variety of places, large, small, narrow and wide. We hope to include part of XEN, and even on the other side of the combine portal...

sorry

Hello, I am really pissed off with the way you use textures in Half life2. EG. If I want to create a box, one whole texture in Halflife2 contains all the sides of the box, not like in the old Halflife where 1 side = 1 texture. I waste time having to sort the textures out! Please, If any one has a better way of texturing, please tell me!

I'm 11 and I got 106!

laurence, your IQ score is in line with the national average. However, some of your skills are better developed than those of the average population. The classic IQ test analyses your strengths and weaknesses based on your mathematical, linguistic, visual-spatial and logical skills. By analysing your answers we can discover the areas in which you have the strongest abilities.

You've got a very experiential way of learning and a strong mathematical mind. You're able to whittle even the most complex situation down to comprehensible component parts. In short, you have mastered the art and science of precision. That's what makes you a Precision Processor.

For you, life is a series of equations. Your brain is naturally predisposed to intense mathematical acuity, and your understanding of numerical problems is unparalleled. It's second nature for you to cut to the heart of an issue, so that you can discover quick solutions to problems while others get bogged down in unnecessary details. One precision processor that comes to mind is the Greek philosopher-mathematician, Pythagoras. Pythagoras had a mind for numbers and, as such, could come up with previously unknown theories like his method for calculating the sides of a right triangle (a2+b2=c2). You too, can use numbers to translate aspects of the world around you -- something that doesn't come easily to everyone. Your quick mathematical mind will allow you to communicate a variety of ideas to other people, so don't keep it to yourself.

7th looks really nerdy, Jeez, The picture on your web site looks cool, heck, I'm only 10 and I look better than you!

I need to finish off the website in a few places like the infomaion page, but Shortlife Can't be downloaded for obviouse reasons, (only if u have read this thread)

I think he means making half life do itself, like, it's part of the game kinda thing, hard to explain?!

What can I use to edit TGAs?

FORGET ALL THE QUESTIONS I HAVE FIGURED IT OUT!! BUT I HAVE A NEW QUESTION : In the bottom left corner of the main menu in steam, How do you get the Game Title to appear? Mine says "Halflife Visitors" (I copyed the directory and changed the background and all the other stuff) but I want it to say Shortlife!

Thx so far, could someone give me a full list of folders and files needed to make the mod dir? Can you also tell me what to put in them - leave out the obvious ones like models. Thx so far though ChickFist

Anything else on how to get it to work with steam ; the music? the menu style?

oh yeah, what should the size of the picture be?

anything else?

what would you recommend setting it to?

Hello, my name is Laurence, I have a question :

I read the tutorial on making a mod for halfl life! It works perfect! Now, how do I make the mod work for steam? It is a half life 1 mod but I think you need to make it in a diffrent way because the menu is completely changed, and there is music playing? I want to do that! But I need my half life 1 mod to work in steam?? How do I set it up. Please tell me?! zonked -

Before you make me look stupid 7th I did know whether to put this in the maps and mods section or the Half life 1 section, it was kinda a problem but a mod too, so I put it in both, okay?

I bought m copy of rising the bar at GAME in England. It' really handy and cool

should do, maybe not on max grphics but it should run on that amount of ram and graphics power. I ran half life 2 win a gefore 4 and less ram than that. Of course now my PC rocks ass...

Thank you ][R()N. 7th monkey, I did not see the tutorial, that's why I said "I don't know if there is a tutorial on this...". So shut up.

mappin for hl2 are we?

It's just that I see pictures of Halflife 1 using the new hammer, at least, I think it is. I think this because the 3D view shows the models, so you can see gordon and headcrabs exc. I thought you could only do that in the latest hammer. Where do I get Hammer 5b?

I don't know if there is a tutorial on this, but how do I set up the new hammer to work with half life, half life is set up with steam, but How do i set it up using the source SDK, where are all the FDG files and gameinfo.txt is located, hell, where are the .wad files? Help please

yeah, things do bereak behind walls, if u remeber cs_assault, if you were a CT, you could (if u were a good aim) shoot the glass balanced on the wall on the other side, remember?

1) is "him" the player?
2) Thank you!

two things :

1) Who is "him"
2) For the delay, should i use a muilti_manager?

Thx so far...
