This might also be a no-brainer, but to keep things organized I put entities close to the button/door/whatever that triggers them. For example: If a trigger_once fires a multi_manager, I place the multi_manager on one of the edges of the trigger_once brush. And let's say that multi_manager triggers a bunch of trigger_changetargets, then I place those entities in a neat row next to the multi_manager.
I remember, in my early mapping days I would place trigger entities anywhere in the center of a room or in a corner, and if the room contained a lot of triggers, this would result in quite a mess.

Greetings!
I've played "The Trap" recently (in Steam Half-Life) and I noticed that when quickloading, or changing levels the old "Loading ..." appeared instead of the flashy Steam loading window.
Since I'm working on my own Single-Player campaign right now I'd like to know how it's possible to get the old loading screen back when playing the mod in Steam Half-Life, as I find it to be more "immersive".
Any ideas?
/Edit: Here's a link to "The Trap", if anybody wants to check it out, or see if the loading screen is different than usually under Steam: http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-trap
