So, Since the recent updates deleted all my custom skins/models for all my guns, I finally got around to re downloading them and Iv'e noticed that some custom sounds wont play when i go into a server online, but some still will. EX. I downloaded an improved skin and model for the deagle, it came with custom sounds for the shot, the slide pull, release, and mag in, out. etc. In Game however, only the shot sound is played, and in place for everything else is a quick static noise. I'm wondering how can this be fixed.
Side note: on occasion, in a skin the creator provides a file called "game_sounds_manifest.txt" and since it always has the same contents, I don't copy it over to my cstrike folder. Is this the reason for my sounds not playing? (I don't see how it could be since the game_sounds_manifest file already in the cstrike folder is the exact same)
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks in advance - C

Hi all, I know someone has posted this same problem, but their problem fixed it's self, and mine hasn't so far. So off we go; I was working on my map doing the same things ive been doing for the last two hours. I compiled, and saved my map every 10 or so minutes, I was trying to perfect some lighting in game, and after not compiling for possibly 20 minutes, and adding a good bit to the map, I tried to compile and run it in game, and an error comes up, my map wouldn't compile no matter what i did, changed settings deleted things i added etc.
*EDIT****EDIT*
found the solution to the problem, and I feel like an idiot. Sorry for posting this with out doing everything i could to try and fix it, it turns out i accidentally tied an old displacement to an entity somehow. Deleting the displacement fixed it.

So i thought ide get back into mapping, for the third time, so today i fired up hammer and fooled around for a while. It took me a while to get back into the loop, and to be honest, i'm still not up to where i was a few months ago, but i spawned a prop_static and tried to find the Dust Double doors and i cant find them, so i was wondering, are there missing models, and where can i find custom models online to use in maps, i've done like 20 minutes of googling, and all i've found is weapon skins and stuff like that. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

the point is the majority of the fighting will be at the top of the map the terrorists are trying to get to the top to plant a bomb and then defend it whilst the cts are trying to get to the top to defuse.
dose that help at all?
think of it this way instead of cts shooting down into spawn they will want to move up the series of walkways to keep the terrorists from planting the bomb (the buy zones will also be higher up so you cant be an awp whore/camp right out of the gate.
i also have an idea to keep campers off ledges ive seen this in many surf maps where you make the ground "move" forward so snipers trying to stop and zoom in will eventually be pushed off the edge

well I was browsing the interwebs earlier today and i ended up looking at TF2 maps and was instantly inspired by a couple pictures of the custom map cp_Steel by fishbus to make a CS:S or DOD:S map that involved more vertical fighting and so i set off and so far this is what i have (been at it for 15 minutes and looking for ideas/thoughts/anything)

hmm theres one other file with a .wad but i already tried that and it did not work. this is really pissing me off ive spent like 12 hours now trying to find frecan texture files. there are a couple from maps ive downloaded but nothing near as many textures as there should be. man this sucks i had no trouble setting up the hammer that works with source games, but i really want to map for hl and dod.
ok this is getting retarded. when i start up hammer 3.4 it asks me to set up the options so i can map for them, i press ok then make a configuration name Day of Defeat then when i enter game data files i click on add then double click dod.fgd then hammer freezes. wtffff i deleted and reinstalled it, restarted my computer and i would try to set up half life to see if that works but i cant find the .fgd file for HL! hellpppp
thanks
-C
EDIT: well i got everything done except for the freggan texture.wad file its really pissing me off now. could some one go and copy all the textures from there version of half-life and email em or something so i can just make my own texture file or just copy your whole texture.wad file and send it over?? is that possible.
thanks

sweet, all i did here was just put up a night skybox from the lit you told me about but you can see it here http://twhl.co.za/mapvault_map.php?id=4520
thanks man helped alot! 
i was wondering how to make a night based map for source and how to get a night themed skybox. (is there one) thanks
whats a spambort
i personally like mapping from base since i'm not such a great mapper yet i think its fun to map from a base and then check out other peoples maps and see what they did differently and eventually people can see more things and be more creative in future maps. thats my stand i don't oppose building whole maps but when you start mapping i think its easier for beginners to enter map from base compos and i think the compos are to become more creative in mapping sooo...
i think that twhl needs to make more compos where someone makes a base map and then people customize it (map from base) because more people tend to enter in those i would.
ya its not a very detailed map yet but the compile time is around 1 hour and 20 mins
my compile time is getting really long what can i do to make it faster? i heard about switching all of your brushes to func_wall or something like that what could i use to make it faster (thanks)
ok ive got a new idea this if for my 3rd map 2nd being released. ive got a river in the middle of my map or river...ish at least well im trying to make a hole under water with bars across it so that the person cant get out of it but can see more water beyond the bars (its just for decoration) i made it fine in hammer its just how i want it but when i run hammer nothing i made that had anything to do with the hole appeared. in cs:s it looks exactly like a wall...plane and not the lest bit hole...ish, what happened (ill post some screen shots of it in hammer)
ok, thanks lol ya it was pathetic
never mind i was clicking the wrong button pathetic right? 
well im trying to make water (go figure) ive looked up tuts but i still cant get one part. ok i make a brush texture it nodraw and heres where i get screwed up how the hell do i make only one side a different texture???? it says to select the texture application tool (thats the one that looks like a brick box with a target thing on it right) then you left click and apply. what??? im lost help me please.
well personally i would make hlsp maps but i got a new comp and all my old games got lost so no key codes no hl1 no hl2 no dod and no cs:s so i have to start collecting again...shame. so now i just map for cs:s.
oh my god i love cs 1.5 back in the day man. it was the best game ever then steam bought it... oh well member how you could get on the top of the maps.
well it not the mouse cuz its not wireless and works fine its a new comp the divers are updated and source works fine with everything restarting wont help cuz this happenes every god dam time i play de_dust/2 or cs_italy every other map works fine. :
ok this is kinda weird. when im playing coustom made maps for css everything goes as planed but when i play maps made by steam like cs_italy... my mouse gets all weird and when i move it my cross hairs move about a second later (a big delay!!!) i was just wondering if anyone knew why this happens. o and on my old computer i dont remmeber css having delay.
hmm well ill see what i can do
then how are people saposed to get up?
cool thanks habboi so all you do is create one env_cubemap and its all fixed like the light_enviornment dosent matter where you put em
dam.. i whish that i could map for hl1 but i dont have the game i did but i got a new comp when my friend broke my old one and i lose all the keycodes. how much is hl1 on steam now? like 10 bucks?
i know it dosent look real im just saying i want it to be able to fall when you shoot the legs holding it up i set the legs so that they break when you shoot em enough and i tested that out they do break and crumble but the building still just hovers in the air. i dont know what to do besides replacing the whole watch tower with prop_phisics to make it folow the laws of gravity so that when the legs are shot the building falls down. but then you wouldnt be able to stand on it is there any entity you can tie a brush to so that it folows the laws of gravity?????
ok im trying to make a building on four legs that when you shoot the legs that hold it up the break and cuase the building to colapse. heres a pic of the building. i know how to make the legs break but im not sure that when you break them the building will fall. any ideas?
