^ I have similar texture bugs last time I used Sledge.
Starting a new CSGO project & thinking of blocking it out in Sledge, since I miss it's various refinements over Source SDK

I'm pretty sure I have them all archived, will upload later-on today..
I vote DoD(non source), so I can own all your asses. My friends and I put A LOT of hours into that game

Find some partners and open up an outdoor field! I've thought about finding some venture capital and opening up a shooting range & combat course... maybe someday.
I bet it'd be a lot easier startup in Texas than where I live in NY, in terms of restrictions and insurance costs.

Sure, but you can't legally shoot people with an actual rifle 
I've owned various firearms, including a Bushmaster m4 and a Chinese AK, Glock 19, Grendel P-30, Beretta 25 auto, Beretta Bearcat, High Standard pistols, et cetera et cetera, but I never fired most of them even once--due to inconveniences with places to legally shoot.
For Airsoft, you need disposable income as the shit is not cheap(as you said comprable or more than real guns)... Also I feel blessed because I have an indoor arena 4 blocks away, and it's only about $80 for a monthly pass, where you can play 6 days a week--2 sessions per day, unlimited
There is also a kickass outdoor field about 7 miles away from home, which I have yet to try, but plan on attending soon!

My interest in Airsoft dwindled fast after just getting started, but this thing is re-ignighting it:
Tippmann M4 Carbine
Full Overview
CO2 is way cheaper than a PolarStar HPA(high-pressure air) setup, and you can get CO2 fillups for around $5 bucks. (CO2 tank and hose hookups are around $50, MUCH cheaper than HPA)
Tippmann M4 are supposed to be incredibly fun to shoot with very strong recoil, and incredible reliability/performance. You can adjust the FPS and rate-of-fire with a simple allen screw, and there are ZERO electrics on the gun to fuck up or break--compared to polarstar.
You can convert it HPA as well, but then of course a compressed air tank and remote are very expensive, though you gain the big advantage of using your high-cap AEG mags. I like also that you can use individiual clips with a 12-gram CO2 cartridge.

Never got this error before according to my error log. Pastebin whole compile log please, and also I would recommend trying to compile in Sledge with the latest VHLT tools if you already haven't, which may possibly eliminate this?
clipbrush the floor? You could also slightly scale-up z, making everything a tad unnaturally tall.

no players, entity only/monsters/pusables Each time you rotated the grid, then would not anything line up with your previous work? When I can almost see a benefit to this, my brain quickly thinks of easier way to do it without rotating the grid, e.g., build the thing in on the regular grid and den rotate it to whatever angle, keeping the pieces always lined up using
Using Sledge or a HLFix-enhanced Hammer, there are many more tricks available to you to make complex stuff. For one you can more accurately line up complex parts and pieces of objects sometimes by disabling the grid altogether(with no visible gaps in game). Another is you can scale/skew/rotate/lathe things to your hearts content with no problems post compile, especially in Sledge

For what porpoises Bruce?
Maybe you could stick to cardinal rotations, i.e., 90/180/270 rather than a free-rotating one? might make it easier to layout/visualize some stuff in 2D i guess

Wish I knew more about modelling to answer. Maybe make up some test models and experiment a little? Also, have you tried asking around at polycount?

Pretty sure Brett is talking about the roof texture: is it meant for a model?(check the vmt) Sometimes you can use those materials on brushes and sometimes not.
If not, possibly a weird lightmap value could do that? All else fails maybe it's just a weird face error caused by a invalid solid, maybe try rebuilding the roof...

Sweet! I'll definitely jump on this and finally get a copy of Source SDK Essentials
I don't know for sure, but I think Penguinboy might be a little burnt out with updates, and/or is working on sorting other problems.
I THINK I did notice some new things fixed the last time I used Sledge recently, but not entirely sure when the last version was released. Keep in mind PB logs all bug reports and feature requests, even if they aren't immediately addressed.

Not sure it's been a LONG time since using them, but I don't think they ever crashed my map. What are you trying to do exactly?
You can also decompile the maps to see exactly how it was done. Just know the brushwork gets chopped up and ruined from the process, so don't try use any of it. Entities however are unaffected from the decompile process
Decals can also be replaced with brushes in some cases, although I wouldn't recommend doing it on a large scale.

As Urby said though, texturing is a MUCH more efficient/flexible method vs. decals.

Your Ep2 is very faithful to how the original game plays, well done! You did a really good job with the lasers, they remind me of a star destroyer repelling enemy fighters with multiple laser batteries.
I had to play with the sound disabled because people were sleeping, but I'll play it again tomorrow to check out the groovy sound effects =)
My only complaint with the game is I wish the fire button was a little more responsive, other than that you've really done a fine job! Nice work on the radar faithful to the original as well, and the mother ship energy core thingies
Diaganonal movement doesn't work for me at all. (In MAME, you can make the ship go diagonal by combining W or A with S or D)

After-Action Report
Played airsoft for the first time, and was it ever was a blast!
I was lucky to have a great group of 18-20 people playing in a indoor 20,000-square-foot arena, 9-10pm(yeah I got there late), playing various gamemodes including TDM and VIP, and others.
The bullets hurt for CQB, but at distance it's not bad at all. They have indoor and outdoor areas, pistol-only inside buildings. Only semi-automatic fire mode is allowed.
I used my friend's 300 BOT G&G M4 and no pistol. Each time you are hit you yell HIT! and walk back to your respawn to recharge for most games.
My only real complaints for the night were not having a hydration pack or canteen--A MUST--, and my current mask makes looking down my gun sights almost impossible; I'll get a red-dot sight and/or a different mask definitely, for easier aiming.
Anyhow it was REALLY fun, going again tomorrow for the full 4-hour session

Are your m4s all AEG, or do you have some gas powered stuff? the gas blowback guns REALLY cool, but not sure if I'd spend the $ just yet.
I want to get a 1911 as a secondary too, but will probably go co2/ggas instead of a springer. Maybe a red-dot sight for the m4 as well. Eventually I will probably buy BDUs and a combat harness of some sort..
Zeeba
Afaik, all the BBs are the same size--6mm--, but the weights range from .12 through .25, and up. From what I understand the heavier BBs lower your fps but give you more accuracy. Most People I've asked use .20, but other's I've talked to use .25g and even .32g BBs, so I guess it depends on your gun and personal preference?

That mp5 is pretty bad ass for the money, and the placement of the cocking handle seems to allow for a decent rate of fire.. Thanks for the tip on spring-loaded pistols too, will stay away
Post some pics of your SG552 if you have some! Also btw, what weight BBs do you typically use?

So about 1.5 miles down the road they just converted a giant warehouse space into an indoor arena, so I felt the time was right to finally give Airsoft a try.
Anyone else into this? If so, what kind of gun(AEG, green gas, compressed air, etc) and what weight BBs do you use? Do you carry a secondary? where do you play? etc etc.
This week I ordered an Entry-level AEG, extra mags, mask, .20g BBs, facemask, and a rubber combat knife(lol). Going to play this weekend with some friends, can't wait
