i think some early version of vluzacns tools had this bug
looks a bit out of place... maybe would work for portal
may you please compile it for linux?
because he likes it!
Tactical Intervention, the successor of Counter-Strike, does have vehicles
well its an old bug, what compile tools are u using?
try other compile tools, would be interesting
try compiling with vis -full, and if those objects are entities they are a bit harder to hide
hammer doesnt represent decals perfectly... look within the game
sprite?
why would you need polygons? i think for performance reasons what matters is the triangle count
arent triangles and polygons the same thing?
both are compressed only jpeg is lossy and png isnt 
dude calm down and learn some english lol... thats what modern education does to people
-nowadtextures doesnt take options
it should be:
-wadinclude symbolistic (.wad not needed)

you dont need cs sdk to write amxx or metamod plugins, you need amxx or metamod sdks, theres plenty of documentation
you can only have 4 switchable lights on one face, if there are more, vhlt excludes those faces and makes them black instead of giving an error. You could try giving those candles a smaller radius so they dont overlap and wont reach 4 on a face. All this stuff was posted on the VHLT thread in sven forums
do you have multiple switchable lights in one area?
turn it to func_detail, all very complex geometry should be excluded from VIS by either func_wall or func_detail
i guess opengl has more washed out color so its not that noticeable
it's a stupid thing, might make your head explode as well
perhaps set the minimum light level thing? or use the zhlt light orign thing if it works
awesome, will it have player delivering ammo and will there be multiple robots, like coop?...
if u want complete virtual security, throw your PC and phone out of your window, hoping not to kill some poor cat. Same happens in HL1, the secret is in your ability to tell which servers are shitty, they usually stink
and hope they dont go out of sync
lol steam hl is all fucked up
why would you want your map to disappear from a certain angle? it never looks good, just make a nice wall, even if you wont be able to reach it
Try putting an info_sunlight with values 0 0 0 0 anywhere in the map. But you would achieve the best results with making that model from brushes instead and making it a func_detail.
info_sunlight disables the shading of models when theyre in open sunlight and takes the light values from the ground below, since with VHLT you might have colored bounces of the surrounding map and so it might lit the model differently than the original color of light_environment.
Tetsu0 I think models dont receive light information during compile, they take the values during the game

There were updates but it's still the same engine. If your mod isn't too sophisticated I don't see why you can't make it compatible with all versions of HL. Like you can take the most complex map from today and it will run on the oldest version of HL, it's only going to be 16-bit color, detail textures won't work and some other stuff, you get the idea...
The hell are you talking here, sdk 2.3 came out in 2002 or smth when HL was already at it's best
Always use larger canvas, even if 256x192 is allowed, don't use it, use 256x256, because only direct powers of 2 (4, 8, 16, 32, 64 etc) work properly, other sizes make the texture blurry and facked up
you havent stolen it, adobe released it themselves full of backdoors to create an army of zombie artists and to enslave the human race
lol. see the elephant? with cracked skin, like an old tree...
sdk 2.3 works well with vc++ 6, u can time travel to the past and buy it from M$ for $5000
^+1
no there is no way, its impossible, sell your PC and go cry on somebodys shoulder
Even now TWHL looks very modern but since it's centered around a retro game I think it should look a bit retro as well. Please just don't fall for that new scroll down forever type crap...
give me alcohol santaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
use hammer...
model to sprite LOD is a great thing, I remember in one MMORPG there was this huge forest and it took me years to realize that all the trees far away were sprites
Not sure but in PS, I would have transparent/checkered areas then convert it to indexed keeping the transparency and the transparency would be the last color in the palette, then I would simply change it to 255 blue.
That's the problem, you got many blues, even if it worked, you'd see blue stuff all around the silhouette, there has to be no anti-aliasing.
If there is more than one 255 blue color in the palette you can't be sure which one you're using, you must use the last one.
func_detail does create a world brush but tells the compiler to not contribute it to visibility (VIS) calculation so you can't seal the map from void with it. It should be used for details, just like it's name says. And some other smart uses...
You don't have to get your geometry on the grid.
You have to be careful with the clipping tool. Get VHLT and get vluzacn's float enabler for VHE. Such small items were always problematic in HL but with VHLT it's way easier, read about the new entity func_detail. The float enabler will let to compile your objects as you see them in the editor because by default VHE snaps everything to grid before compiling.

It's not the texture size that matters, it's the scale, if all textures are scaled down a lot then you're gonna reach light data limit very soon. 1024x256 works but I think it gets distorted like 192, 48 etc
looks good! i guess low poly+no filtering complements each other
when u serach for forum posts and u get a result for example the wip thread it just goes to the first page and so its useless, should go to the specific page or even line
Yashka, if youre making a mod you can set gl_texturemode to gl_nearest_mipmap_linear and textures will not be filtered even in opengl
