Urby has a point, you can create a flag for your fgd in HLSDK that is checked whether It's enabled or not so if It's enabled (For instance: Hostile Barney) in flags window that barney will be hostile, else he's friendly. Integers that define hostility are easily understood.
@Shepard62700FR (A lil spoiler but oh well)
I see, it just gets the type from the spr file.
@Half-Rats
Wouldn't that make the crosshairs not colorful? And yes as I mentioned in the first post the image file was 8-bit.
Is making colorful crosshair sprites additive even possible? AKA does the engine make all additive sprites glow in set color? (For instance, orange for health, armor, etc.)

What other sprites? In valve, original half life, crosshairs are Alphatest. I want mine to be Additive.
I made my custom crosshairs sprite. Every pixel except the crosshairs is black so it would be invisible and the crosshairs will be transparent. I'm using Sprite Explorer, I save the bmp as 8-bit depth and save the sprite as Additive, I configure it for each weapon in sprites/<weapon>.txt
In game every crosshair sprite is correctly displayed for every weapon except that they are not additive. The should be transparent with black invisible, they are normal. Nothing invisible, nothing transparent. Can this be done in a code maybe or is there another way outside coding?

Jumping in the topic.
GoldSource takes the movement speed from the model and not from dlls?

Actually I didn't use the vertex tool afterwards, I just clipped a brush until I got a cool displacement...thing. I found twister which is kind of useful for something.
I guessed it correctly. Dang. Most people use similar wads, dev wads to source mapping on goldsrc mapping videos. I guess I need to practice more with the clipping tool to make nice brushes.
Simple question. How do you open the "Displacements Tab" in Jackhammer? In tutorials you open the tab through Texture Application Tab. I don't see it. Even don't see it in VHE.
Thanks! Works nicely. Didn't even know there was a cvar for that.
Also I get it, they have to be in the same project dir. Totally didn't think about it.
Btw. It's
gEngfuncs.pfnGetCvarFloat

Started from mapping questions, now we're at coding topics 
Half Life modding is indeed very addictive and fun. But less knowledge ruins it a little.
Anyway
In ev_hldm.cpp I wanted to check the room type, configured by the env_sound entity by using if(pPlayer->m_flSndRoomtype == <number>) { ... }. It can be found and called in player.h which calls the main function in sound.cpp, though there is no header for sound (sound.h). Then I included player.h in ev_hldm.cpp. When compiling, it gives errors in player.h. There are 170+ errors. I see that most cpp's have included player.h . I really can't explain further... any solution? If there is explain it to me please.

Read the replies above please. It's a single shot weapon. And I'm no expert in HLSDK.

I don't know if you put break; on purpose but It shouldn't be placed anywhere except do, while, for and switch.
Okay, I got the laser working, but at random time it shoots two lasers simultaneously and doesn't do any damage to the target?

Lots of custom weapon models have new sound file names. (For example: "awp_fire-1" instead of "awp1"). But I wonder, how do they do it? How do they add/edit sound file names for every animation of the weapon model?
@Shepard Heh if the variables and function calls were a little more descriptive, I could've found it instantly. I did try something like VectorMA( tr.endpos, 8.0, forward, vecSrc );, End Position maybe? It didn't do anything.
@Spanner Yes It's a single shot weapon just like primary gauss. I DID put a secondary fire but using secondary ammunition. It's the same as the primary fire, single shot.
The only difference is different type of ammo and laser color.

Made the laser, but it points at the center of the map wherever I aim at. Is there no API or anything? Right now I'm totally confused because the gauss in unique and has lots of abilities in one event function.
I'm making a new laser gun. I made every part of the weapon except the laser.. it shoots bullets currently. gauss.cpp firing function is too confusing. It first checks whether the player clicked left mouse button or right mouse button, then the spin event. Is there already a code with that maybe? Or do you know the main function that plays a sprite like a line(laser) from the gun?
Found a way of doing it
I don't know if I'm crazy or I really saw an option somewhere in a trigger_* entity or something where you enter a targetname, it gets triggered when you recoil from the trigger? Is this even possible? For example, when you enter a trigger (touch it), a light gets turned on, when you recoil it turns off. I'm pretty sure I noticed something like that on this site when I was learning more about some entities...
50, everytbing else is in untouched
It wint move, I set the properties correctly, target name, path corner, flags are set so it looks at player. the path corner's properties are also set correctly, name = path corner peoperty in camera, but the camera won't move to it. It looks at the player but does not move.
Uuughh... I have to uninstall VS2008 which is over 7GB then install 2010 which is who knows how big, maybe same, maybe bigger. I only have 9.3GB of space on one disk and 26.4GB on another, I'm trying not to fill them too much. Would 2008 work on 1.9?
@SourceSkyBoxer
On here? Didn't know about it. Thanks.
@Tetsu0
Okay so It's just the same as the hlsdk 2.3 Got it. I put the client.dll in cl_dll and the hl.dll in dlls. Don't know why I was so confused about it at all...

I downloaded v1.2 with Source Code from moddb. Seriously, there's absolutely no info or tutorial on the internet about how to use it... I mean okay, I'm a liiiitle familiar with cl_dll and dlls coding in vs2008, but what about the fgd? The rest? I don't know what is what.
Edit: Fixed it.
The width and height were out of bounds and caused the crash.

It was actually because of env_sound. When you get close to a tunnel-like env_sound it makes the sounds do that. It's kind of similar to Xash3D engine. But considering making the sound 16-bit.
Couldn't make it in weapons.h but I did actually change the new weapon's position to 1, and returned crowbar to default. So now It actually works, but the sprite is not set. I made 2 sprites for the new weapon (When selected and not), made weapon_classname.txt in sprites folder. I copied it from weapon_crowbar.txt and changed it. I still don't know what those numbers means.

weapon 320 320hud1 0 0 80 20
weapon_s 320 320hud1 0 20 80 20
weapon 640 640mpipe1 0 0 170 45
weapon_s 640 640mpipe2 0 0 170 45
What does all of this mean?
After starting a map, it crashes with an error GL_Upload16: s&3 and R6025
-pure virtual function call.
I first compiled hl.dll before adding the sprite and the weapon worked well, I could select it. This error appears after adding the sprite.

iSlot = 0
iPos = 0
I did change the crowbar's iPos to 1 so it goes after the new melee weapon.
I never noticed that text file.. I'll check it out.

I created a new weapon in HLSDK and it works just fine, animations, precaches, classname, etc. But I after picking up another weapon I can't switch to it, there's no sprite. I can't find any part of the code in HLSDK where weapon HUD sprites are present. I created the new weapon through this tutorial http://twhl.info/articulator.php?art=31. It is not very accurate but I fixed some issues and made it work. Now, I made a nice sprite in Sprite Explorer for the weapon. But how do I add it? In the sources and headers for existing weapons there are no hud sprite parts.
Ugh.. sorry I'm so confused, I don't know what else to type, tell me what do you think I just said (What you understood).

What the what? All this time I've been using light entities in bright rooms when I didn't have to. I had no fudging idea about that lol
I don't seem to have lights.rad, I will download the latest vhlt as soon as I get back on comp.

Maybe there's a way making a texture emit light? Or something like that?
0.1 makes it too bright for dark areas (Not pitch black areas lol, but there is some light) also there are rooms with different brightness. If only I could set a specific face texture's light level. I don't know how others do that, they don't use light origin target nor min. light level
Yeah, It's a pretty neat way. But now because I had to make the door look better by punching holes/elevations in it. Then the inner parts of the door is dark. I tried the Light Origin Target thing, put an info_null under the door where the visible face is when it opens, then It actually darkens the bottom part of the door instead of lighting it.
Obvious one
First off, am I even allowed to ask this question?
I'm looking forward to amxx module writing and was wondering where I can get Cs 1.6 sdk? Not hlsdk, sdk exactly for cs 1.6

The "Starts Open" method works. THanks
Nice idea!
The second picture Loulimi posted is definitely multimanager.

Wouldn't that make the rest of the door dark?
I have a door with set textures, when it opens it goes in a wall and the front and back faces cannot be seen anymore, but the right face's texture is dark, how did valve and most modders make it, it's dark because it couldn't receive light, how to make it's texture bright anyway?
The number of messup mods is too darn high! But as Loulimi said, some people like it.
FMOD was indeed a good idea. Still having those... how do you call them. Kind of sounds like you're scratching your speakers. But making them 8-bit and 44k isn't any different than 4kk 16bit or greater.

Ugh.. I'm confused. Sorry I'm new to all of this. Well, I want to mod on Goldsrc instead.. well, because I want to 
, simple as that. What are the parts Goldsrc engine? What dlls? That is uncompiled from the SDK?
, simple as that. What are the parts Goldsrc engine? What dlls? That is uncompiled from the SDK?I create 16-bit 22k and they are fine too. But I'm trying to add in even better though. Like in source engine.
Oh, how to get a result of a hd sound then? That is, allow 44100khz and play it without converting it?
What part of the code could it be?

In which part of the half life SDK can you set the maximum acceptable Hz? Default is 22050Hz. Xash3D engine has this already but you'll probably suggest to make my mod for Xash3D, please don't do that, I'd like to get the answer I'm looking for.
What I'm trying to do is add a custom model in JH, but I want it to be passable. How?

I know how to fix it. I fixed it. I am asking one simple question.
Can I make the compiler and the game ignore that? Can I, or can I not?

I know this might sound silly and I know what causes the error. But can I somehow make the compiler and the game ignore it? Maybe extend some limitations in the codes?
