i'll try thx

i have op force but when i tried to get the prefab they did i could't find it the map, just like the train in hl....gess it spawns at the beginning....
as for the non-solid part....the osprey is solid....when i tick the prisonierr flag you can climb in.....an the brush highlander did...it has several entitys, so they can not be used as a func train.....

I have a question for all you guys ...can you make an osprey follow a scripted sequence like other monsters?if not can you provide with an alternative?

I tried it but (i need the osprey to carry the player to a location an land ) when it starts the map the osprey vanishes and the player falls ....

suggestions?

dark blue dosen't cut it

thx i'll try it...

map uploaded..... http://www.twhl.co.za/mapvault_map.php?id=3597 :

it won't go lower than 1, i got a example map that has light set to 1 ,an all the other settings the same, but it it is a lot darker....i'll upload the map tomorow..., mabe you'll figure it out cause i can't

the problem is that i can't get the map dark enough, i folowed the tutorilal about this but, it does not work....i've set it on night, set the sky texture , and the spotlight is set on 1(light intensity) but i still get shadows on every brush, and it's not even dark.... :

PS: merry christmas to all

zombie's right, wrong forum..

some textures emit light even if there's not light entity...

does anybody have a jeep prefab? (and by jeep i mean off road vehicle like the white ones, also would hepl if they had more polys) :

here's a big problem the { textures don't work why?

the thing is that this error never apeared before, and the hammer is setup fine, duno what to do please help

You can delete them......so you whont get it again........

the dots may be also a script error, first happend to me when i made a scientist for the coffee_idle, when deleted and redone the scrips it was fine :

use Dc

where can you get it from? :

how about it combines some experimental drugs and mutates into something 10 times it's size

fast zombies scared me too

especially the screaming they did

booring

nice to see what people are playing, ill have to agree with most people about good games:
-> Generals
-> HL 1/2(not one and a half!!!!! )
-> Battlefield 2
-> Splinter Cell ( the whole series)
-> Red Alert
-> Duke Nukem( can you remember? the good days?)

Bad games: there's a lot here so i'll leave them be

The door problem has been resolved(exept the func_breakble ill try that) but the grunts and the camera still don't work , please try to run the map in hammer so you'll understand what i mean

Best game(s) i ever played were the Command &Conquer series-> very good storyline
I have to agree with Crystalman , i hate the comcept to pay for a game after you bought it (world of warkraft) there's a MONTHLY fee you have to pay f***'em there's a lot of MMO's out there witch are better and free

Wat's in your opinion the best game ever? How about the crappyest game? don't forget to say WHY

http://www.hl-improvement.com/forums

thanks

ooo ok

the school bell rings

doesn't the game take the models from the pak file seventh?
valve/models/*modelname* is so that you can see the models in hamer rendered in stead of cyan rectangles, if the models are not in the pak file with the name of the old one you get errors" could not load"

did you replace them in the pak file corectly?

Ok here are the bugs->the grunts don't move to theyr scripts

->the camera won't move
->the grunts should win the fight

Here is the map-> http://www.twhl.co.za/mapvault_map.php?id=3459

so how do i get rid of the door?I got the par with spwanig gibs, but i must get rid of the door

i used the shoop open value, i set it at 1 but it doesn't do anithing when a grunt drops a grenade

Here's the problem, i whant to make a smal movie to integrate in my mod ->here's what's my idea i whant 4 grunts to come busting through a door(but i can't make it func_breakeble because it's already a func_door, also health is not allot of help because it won't open when damaged) next the grunts come in a room and start shooting at scientists (does not work either, they execute the script and then they just stay) and the barney must shoot at the grunts(also does not work)Finaly the camera F***'s all up, sometimes,almost ALL the times it starts moving around randomly (like you move the mouse in a circular motion really fast ) and all moves as is i'm looking at pictiures
any ideas?

Try looking how the scene wa made in the original map of hl(when a scientist fights with a headcrab behind a window on c1a0e i think, at the end it jumps on his head.....see if that helps )

i think those scripts are automated when the player or a npc gets close to the headcrab. I have a kinda the same problem, the grunt whon't shoot the scientist unless the scientist walks to him, if the grunt walks to the scientist he stops at the script and nothing happens :

i got the same problem... the dam camera won't budge, either stares at the " info camera" or it stares at a random place....... the path corners are made just like in the tutorial map

Matrix sucks bad,like star wars good to watch once, to pass time to watch them twice wold be a tortuer

using multimanager is a lo0t easierand you can target more things with it (up to 15)

when you write in the target of the sound , don't write the whole path (C:sierrahalflife...........) but just the folde where the files are in the pak file(eg: ambience*desired sound*)

will make it a bit faster....your proble might be the textures tha your using, also the render proberties could do some errors if you are using software mode :

what kind of entitys? lights are the only ones that work without a multimanager

an alternative could be fast vis

"ohhh thanks but
link to jeds dont work"

google it!

I can't notice a single difference between the two , care to explain witch is the best one? an why?

dude get jeds half life model viewer and load the wanted model and there you can see all its actions it can perfor, including dead idles!

you could use the blouter's model to replace another monster in the game (but you have to edit it like weapons, take the body but leave the scripts)

Also are you keeping all your hl stuff on one disk?

Any ideas and/or improvement ideas are welcome
