in Ram in CSS Post #260583
So I know how to create a func_tracktrain, I have done it in HL1, but how I do make it break my gate?

Thanks

It doesnt need to be pretty looking at all.

The Hunter thanks for your input.. I need to read a little about that func_tracktrain.

But thanks.

If anyone else have ideas that could help, please post them :)

in Skybox help! Post #260212
So I have been searching for a skybox tutorial, but every single one of them is about 3d skyboxes.. I havent found one, that actually tells how to make simple non-3d skyboxes.

I am still new to mapping, so bear with me :)

thanks

in My whole map dark map is lighted Post #251164
EDIT: The title was meant to be: My whole dark map is lighted :) Sorry

Hi, I have been trying to compile a fairly big map.

The map is meant to be at night, but when I compile it all of it is lighted.

There are alot of lights and lamps in the map, but I cant figure out why the whole damn map is fully lighted.

I have heard something of -lightres or -texlights, but I dunno how to use them.

Thanks in advance :)
