Sounds like they're not very useful. Perhaps they were left in the game but unused or only used in scripted sequences? You could check the official maps to see if and how they are meant to be used
I suggest having a look at one of the door tutorials and maybe downloading one of the attached example maps. If you still can't figure it out, upload your map in the vault so we can have a look at it

Get out! Both of you must have put an incredible amount of effort into those! I cannot wait to try them! Caldera reminds me of the old Tony Hawk's games for some reason

Hi! Are there any warnings or error messages in the compile log?
Have a look at the wiki category:Error_Guides or Tommy14's error guide

in How to set the rotation speed of a func_train? Post #346393
It seems that way. The wiki articles on entities follow the FGD too closely sometimes (another example is that many entities' articles lack "Not In Deathmatch (2048)" even though that flag probably works for all entities), might explain why this was included. I am removing it from the article.

Hi! We have some great tutorials in the wiki I recommend checking out. Most of them assume you use Hammer but you should be able to follow the instructions in JACK too I believe.

in How do i convert a bmp to 256 colors without loosing quality? Post #346380
You can't. If you used more than 256 colors and you need a 256-color palette you are going to lose quality, there is no way around that unfortunately (except perhaps by using lots of 16x16 pixel textures instead but that would require more than a simple texture swap).
What you can do is use another editor that does a better job, but you will still loose some quality - that's what we get for still modding these old games. Try GIMP or perhaps Photoshop.

Try verifying file integrity through Steam. Maybe the texture file is corrupted
Hi. What does ComplainAboutLowAmmo look like?
Hi there! You could take a look at how other mods have done this. This site has a list of open source mods: https://hlsources.github.io/ It looks like Half-Rats Parasomnia has a double-barrelled shotgun.
You might find the article Weapons Programming - High-Level Overview helpful. A lot of other articles on weapons programming for Half-Life are outdated.
As for the model I would again suggest taking a look at existing work.
Come to think of it, Deathmatch Classic has a double-barrelled shotgun you could take a look at

You could try it in Hammer first
I've had a quick look in the code, and env_explosion, trigger_hurt, and func_breakable don't seem to keep track of who triggered them so you can't use those to kill the players unfortunately. But it looks like func_mortar_field does? I've never used it. Perhaps you can have the button target a trigger_relay targeting a func_mortar_field? Try and see if it works?
I don't know, but I would try using the updated studiomdl.exe that's included in Sven Co-op's SDK (you can find it in your Steam library in the Tools category). And maybe a different decompiler? https://steamcommunity.com/groups/CrowbarTool

Update CHalfLifeMultiplay::PlayerRelationship too. If you have it return GR_TEAMMATE you'll be able to see your friends' health and armour amounts, just like when you play HLDM in teams.
Also, move/copy CHalfLifeTeamplay's ShouldAutoAim implementation into CHalfLifeMultiplay if you don't want auto-aim to target your friends when you have the cvar sv_aim set to 1.

It looks great! I'll be keeping an eye out for crystal_mission in Sven Co-op's server list. If you want to you can post it in TWHL's Map Vault (you can use an external download link if you don't want to re-upload here every time you release an update). What editor did you use? The outdoor parts would be painful to make in Hammer

in Custom character model not showing up in game Post #346153
Hi! If you change sentences.txt, the people who play your map will need to change theirs too, and if they then go on to install other custom maps that also change sentences.txt, your map will break. So it's usually not a good idea to change it for a custom map. But if you make a mod folder for your map, that's not a problem, you can replace anything, including scientist.mdl.

in Is there any way to check the Steam Id of a Player? Post #345422
The reason your code doesn't work, The Mighty Goglu, is that
GETPLAYERAUTHID(pl->edict()) and "insert_steam_id_here" are pointers to characters, const char*. Two strings can contain the same text (insert_steam_id_here) but not have the same memory address (pointer value) because they're stored in different locations, and you want to compare the text content, not compare where the content is stored in memory. When you do == on two pointers, you compare memory locations. FStrEq (and C's strcmp and similar functions) compare the actual characters those pointers point to.That's good. It's best to avoid uppercase letters in file names altogether, or you might unknowingly create a map or mod that works fine when installed on case-insensitive file systems (as commonly used by Windows and Mac OS) but not on case-sensitive ones (as commonly used by Linux and web servers, which are extra important if you instead make a multiplayer map)
When you get that error message, write "deathmatch" in the console and confirm that it is "0"

The Swiss. It's beautiful. And it probably helps keep Archies away.
I started learned programming when I was 11 so I could make new weapons for Half-Life. No mod came out of it but it lead to a career in software development, which as far as careers go, is pretty okay I guess. It's good money, but I would probably be happier working with people. Hopefully I can save up and retire early to make up for that, perhaps somewhere with more agreeable winter climate and sun hours, like New Zealand. And I'll make an awesome Half-Life mod in 2040. It will have func_vehicle and throwing knives.
If you're trying to download it with Chrome on you phone or something, try opening the link in a new tab and it should download. I think it's s browser bug
That's part of the charm, Archie 🙂 but maybe changing the rates could help? I don't know. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=126383209

Silly idea I can't test right now, but can you set effects on the func_vehiclecontrols?
That looks really interesting! How do you achieve that lighting?

Weeks, maybe even a few months would be my guess (whenever the format of dates in TWHL's API changed). I have been distracted so I didn't investigate before now

Looks like the extension was broken by an API change. I've released a fix, but it could take a couple of weeks to clear Chrome's code reviews.

Formula 1
In this sport, people drive dozens of laps around the same track in expensive, fast cars. But not too fast because of a bunch of limits that keep changing? The best car usually wins I think. I'm not into sports: if I must watch something I choose ice hockey or one of those funny sports like tractor pulling or competitive rock paper scissors. Sorry. Bad reviewer.

You might want to post information about what kind of pay someone can expect. I'm not looking for freelance work, but if I was, it would be important for me to know that I could get decently paid before I would even consider work from an individual on the Internet. Programmers with a little bit of professional experience and a Linkedin profile get messages from so many recruiters they don't even bother to read everything or to reply "sorry, no". I understand that for a project like this the joy of being part of this creative project and the love for the game are valuable rewards, but if money is part of the incentive, it's good to have at least a rough estimate. I wish you luck

That sounds right, Captain P. To clarify, you can use official Half-Life WADs (such as halflife.wad). Though those textures would probably look out of place.

It's a really beautiful map, especially with the detailed surroundings. And it was fun. I bet I didn't find all the places you could climb and explore. I don't really have any good advice for balancing, I have pretty peculiar taste in maps and don't care much about balance, in CSGO I play 80% Office. Maybe A site has one too many places for hiding? Maybe
