I'm bored again in class ... SO I"m watching TWHL again
Striker, what are you, 13 years old?
Its just polygons, get over it!
Edit: And striker, are you really that scared from this mod? Really? Cmon man.
I thought you will conclude from my posts that this game is really fun . I can't wait for other mods like this to be released . The fact that I was frightened and my soul jumped several times means this game actualy has an effect on a normal player .
Muzzleflash , believe me or not , when an athmosphere like this is pretty realistic and succesfully done I begin to forget those are just polygons made in hammer .

Somebody said something about the lighting . THe lighting makes the athmosphere for this game . Also , the proportion of monsters is just the best for this type of mod . You won't find lots of monsters because this mod tries to make the situation as realistic as possible . In reality monsters aren't scattered randomly around ...

I'm going to post this mod on my blog . I was really impressed .

OK this game frightened me that much I'll sleep with the lights on this night .
There are creatures you have never seen in other games . I think the guy who created this game is nuts and crazy . But the game is so cool .
Dude I tell you : this game rockets you off the chair . Just turn the lights off .

[EDIT] I completed it . Pretty short for such a modification .
I'll spoil a simple thing : don't waste you're time breaking crates . I broke them all and you won't find nothing .
Secondly : After the fourth map , begin to save frequently .

in compile benchmarking... might be fun? Post #257335
I'd do it if someone packed up everything needed and put in a batch file to do it automatically tongue - :P
I'll do that ! But I'm only in for goldsource .
What map are we going to use for benchmarking ? I know ! My de_dome rmf =))

[EDIT] I need a rmf , and I need to know default hl steam path . .

I'll make a batch file for steam and one for WON hl ....

The only issue is that you have to open this batch file ( right click -> edit) and in the marked spots you have to replace with your own names .

I added the wad I prepared for my map in hammer to use it . And I already used some textures from that wad and now I want to add more textures to that wad without modifying the others. You know , just adding some pictures to the wad . Is it possible without errors ?

in Adding sound to footsteps/texture Post #257311
OK just for the sake of free space I'm going to ask a texture question in this thread ( off topic , sorry)

I made a wad texture I'm using in my map . The problem is , as I am still working with that wad in hammer and the map is not ready , can I modify the wad ( just adding textures , not modifying others) so the hammer configuration and BSP to work ?

in Interesting questions Post #257273
Ummm... OK ... Yeah ... Good ... Well ... Whatever ...

These maps should usually be an "arena" or deathmatch type . Or a de or cs or as map . But these explications are useless .
Can you think a little : 1 player walks through the trigger_changelevel while the others are in another part of the map ? Oh and the map changes and the round restarts with full 100 life .

Absolutely not possible . It would be wise , thought , if someone from valve releases an update for hl1 and its mods to increase these mapping limits and increase the compiling speed .

Before I'm going to read these long texts I must tell you my book is : " C++ for beginners , by Brian Overland"

Well I did some programs , for fun . Some of then with commands that book never teached me . Such as "switch" .
I think I built a mini calculator once and an interesting program that calculates distance , speed and time based on s=d/t .
Now I'm going to read these long texts ...

[EDIT] Read that . You guys talk like professionals , really . Ok at first I didn't want to buy a book .Well after some days spending on reading tutorials from different sites I noticed this is a bad thing . Each beginner tutorial was just shit , couldn't understand nothing .
Contrary , the book starts by teaching me some general aspects of language programming . After that it exemplifies through a few pseudocodes . Well , after 20 pages , here's the Hello world program .
And the explanations are quite nice . It details what does every command do in that program . Then it gives you some exercises to practice .

I consider this book as a good start . I'm not reading all the day , only sometimes . At the moment , I consider programming fun .

I'm using this tool in my 2nd campaign map for sven coop . I only used one-way option .

There was a strange behavior at ping-pong or circular , I don't know . When the train arrived at the end of the path , it rotated and continued to go until it hit the first path-point and then stopped .

That's all I know about it ...

And I found out about something else , the program name : system("title")

Hi . I need a little help with c++ , if somebody knows this language ...

First of all , I hadn't coded for a long time ( 5 months) and I forgot some things . Anyway I'm a beginner , I don't know that much .... just got to the "while" instruction in my book.(I bought a c++ book)

My questions reffer to the system("thecommand") command .

I need to know the following info :

1. system("CLS"); //clears console screen ?
2. system("pause");// I know what this does ...
3. I remember there is a time pause command , using system("time") or something but I don't remember well . Can somebody tell me how this works ?
4. I remember one can use this command to change the backround\fontcolor as well . Please explain me how .

If you know more system useful commands , please post them here , they might be useful .

Thnx in advance .

in No free edicts? No more! Post #256430
whats edicts?
Edicts are slots for entities .
They work just as player slots . For example : if you put the max number of player slots to 16 and the server is full , if a player comes he will automatically be kicked . The difference is that if you go over this maximum number of edicts your hl will crash .
Now, you don't have to think to edicts as a slot per entity . Just as in that forum says , a player needs 15 slots . A gun needs more than one slot . A monster needs more than one slot etc ....
