My problem with AngelScript is that I have insufficient coding knowledge to achieve this stuff. But nothing prevents me from learning it, lol.
But hey, doing the func_conveyor trick isn't really that ugly!
Forum posts
I'll place a few non-solid func_conveyors with a scrolling rain texture, I'll put a few rain-splash sprites, and a rain sound. 
Who needs env_rain? >:P
By the way, I found out that Sven Co-op can have more entities per visible packet, so adding this much stuff won't really make entities disappear like it would do in standard GoldSRC.

Yes, good job, just make sure you don't alter the brightness of the original texture too much. It can mean a huge difference in ambience etc. especially in night maps like Kobbl.
I've discovered that just by tweaking the contrast and brightness, you can get different levels of influence on the main texture. (which is pretty obvious, I knew it already)
If the contrast is high, the bright spots will be even more bright, and dark spots will be very dark, and that's why the detail texture will be very noticeable, so you should be a bit careful with what you choose. On the other hand, lowering the contrast will blend your detail texture more and it will stand out less.
The same thing about brightness goes for making the texture too dark. I have this texture MZ_KOBBL_1, and it's some sort of a pavement.
When I put a black'n'white detail texture on top of the 64x64 main texture, it was pretty dark. But in such a good way that I thought it was wet!
Basically, I made a mistake and ruined the map's feel a little bit. Except this wasn't a bad mistake in this case, as it made the texture look wet, which is an excellent reason for me to add rain. Lol.
This stuff is cool. I luv it! <3

One DeTx for all? XD
Not really a bad idea, as I'm using the same detail texture for 3 grass textures in Kobbl. But man, you really should try experimenting a bit with them. It can get really interesting sometimes, you know.

Yes, no detail textures have been made for the rock (I make them myself :P).
I've never known that detail textures can be so fun.
I can make a texture look dirty, or burnt out, or make it have scratches, and many more stuff. But I mostly use them in the map to cover the 64x64 diffuse textures, which really helps me out with AllocBlock.
Now I reduced the usage from 61/64 to 55/64, which is pretty nice and leaves me more room for things. Since I'm using it in Sven Co-op, though, crossing the old AllocBlock limit shouldn't result in an error, right?
Lastly, people who disable the detail textures on their end will experience a significantly different aesthetic, quality, look and feel in my map as of now.

Well, to be honest, I don't really use the snap-to-grid feature because it broke for me. I don't know why it broke, maybe it was because I just hit any random key hoping that something would happen.
Snap-to-grid is pretty useful, though, when it comes to modelling stuff like buildings etc.

Of course it does! Just press S on your keyboard to toggle it.
You can also customise the heck out of the grid, too. You can make it measure in Half-Life units, too.

Your clipnode count will get wrecked if you use too many func_details, even if you use the Bevel texture.
Be careful. :3
(unless those are passable "zhlt_noclip 1" func_details!)

@WorstMapper
Sorry for your laptop, then.
I'm not responsible for your laptop, by the way. Ah, it probably burned because it overheated because of fullbright mode.
2)
I meant:
1. Place an info_texlights entity
2. In its properties, disable SmartEdit
3. Press Add and type the name of the floor texture you're using
4. And then give it a value of 255 255 128 400
So, your floors will emit light and the map will be fully lit, if all floor textures in the map emit light.

If you want the entire map bright, then don't run HLRAD at all. Go to Expert Mode and disable hlrad.exe.
Also, another method would be using the floor textures as texlights, if you're willing to do it.
Also, you're probably using the wrong angles for light_environment. Place it somewhere in your map (only if you have sky brushes), and then go to the parameter Pitch and type -90.

You silly, little kid, that's exactly what he said!
"Paired with good mapping and a clever entity setup, it's very possible."
Games are illusions anyway, so is every single stealth in every single game.
I'm capable of doing both, so this shouldn't be that hard to implement.
I'll do a testmap just to develop the actual setup for it.

Having played CS:CZ:DS, I know what it looks like. There are dedicated hiding areas where the NPCs won't see the player, and then some missions like Miami Heat have parts where you have to memorise the NPC's walking pattern.
Lol. Well, time to get those screenshots, or maybe a video...
In the meantime, I managed to optimise the map well enough so that hlvis.exe only takes 4 minutes and 4 seconds!
And when you realise it took more than 2.6 hours yesterday... wow. I was mind-blown.

The term 'Svengine', I found it somewhere. I'm not exactly sure where, but I guess I'm not the only one who calls it that way.
Also, Windawz, take a look at Sven Manor. You should look around there, and you'll surely find lots of stuff. Sven Co-op introduced a bunch of new things, and I can't wait to use them. (I actually can, but I'm just saying that I'm excited for them)
Anyway, I'm sure there's a way to add stealth. You'll see.

Edit:
Also, have you ever seen this Half-Life mod called Operations 1942?
Well, they seemingly implemented stealth without coding, as far as I can tell.

I've got some neat stuff about Kobbl coming up soon.
For now, since I don't have the screenshots, I'll just write some text:
The map will be configured to make players run a bit slower, and I'll try making the gravity a little bit stronger, too.
Basically, I can put sv_friction, sv_gravity, sv_accelerate, sv_airaccelerate etc. in the map .cfg file. This means that, if I tweak them in a specific way, the map will have the feeling of slight, additional inertia while you're moving in it.
Why is that? Well, the campaign version of the map will require that, because I just don't want players bunny hopping in the map, as that could just ruin the map since some parts will require stealth.
Ah well, what else to expect from a pack of typical Sven Co-op players? This is why I'd rather not like to see the map being abused on public servers.
Next, I'll not need to worry much about the materials. In this case, I'm referring to the sounds emitted depending on the texture. Sven Co-op allows a custom materials.txt.
I also found out a bug in the teleporting part of the healer. I'm yet to discover the issue and the solution.
And lastly, I am optimising the map on the VIS side of things:
Wow. There are around 1100 portalleafs and 3000 numportals in the map. I'm looking forward to reducing that number a little bit. :3

Alright, now it will be easier to see what's wrong.
But I'm really confused about this part:
I'll have to look further...
The windows, for example:
In the editor, they're covered with a hint+skip brush, just like they should.
But I just don't understand why these smooth window things produce such nightmarish results, even though they're like this:
Also, this thing is func_detail so it doesn't make VIS work longer:
This stuff is plain unpredictable.
Oh... NOW I SEE.
THIS is also func_detail:
Yay, looks like we can fix one part of the issue. :DDDDD
Kids, always remember to double-check for func_details so you can cover them too.
P.S. SC-VIS.exe managed to finish processing the map in 10101 seconds. Seriously.
And yet another reason why VIS takes so long:
Yeah, gotta turn it to func_detail right now.
Anyway, big thanks to Solokiller for reminding me of Crafty.
It truly is a crafty tool, as the name suggests.

You know, I opened Compilator 3 which I had installed since early 2016.
I configured it for Sven Co-op, and OH MY GOD!
I've never been so happy for a compiling time!
LeafThread gets stuck at 16% (1080 out of 6641), 43% (2885) and it's still compiling.
Also, CSG and BSP took 1 minute and 30 seconds each, now they only take 30 seconds each. XD

Umm... but hlvis.exe only takes about 20 to 40MB of RAM on my end.
Only hlrad.exe can be so memory-hungry.
Anyway, guess what. I decided to switch to Svengine.
I instantly didn't regret it.
A map like this totally deserves the shift to Svengine. :3
Lastly, is the latest VHLT x64-only, or not?

I've shown it a lot of times, and I'm showing it again, my 2007 laptop. The one I use to make my maps with.
I've never had a 64-bit OS in my life, lol. Only 16-bit and 32-bit ones.
But wouldn't the biggest difference in using 64-bit compiling tools be the one about being able to allocate more memory? I don't think that using a 64-bit version of hlvis.exe (if it exists, it does in Sven Co-op, though) would that significantly improve my compile speeds.

J.A.C.K. doesn't say anything, and I'm not really willing to port the map into VHE and Sledge just to try out opening .prt files.
Dr. Orange mentioned that I can't open .prt files in the case of GoldSRC.
I've also opened the .prt file in Notepad++, and this showed up:
I believe that these 2 numbers are the ones for numportals and stuff when hlvis.exe starts up.

Ah well, the least I can do is clean it, then upgrade the RAM to 4GB.
Now, let's see if we have some stuff from fun_kobbl:
Yeah, I have more, it's just not ready to be shown to you people. xd
This one, anyway, needs a few carpets and some neat decorations.
Edit:
Oh, right, I've done some terrain optimisations here:
It's more low-poly. Doesn't affect the framerates that much, but still, it's enough to make a difference.
Yes, I've added a teleporter for something. For the mapping gods' sake, this is the fun_ version after all.
Furthermore, it's actually meant for this thing.
It basically charges your health back to 100 (if it manages to do it on time), and then you're given extra 500 health points, after which you're teleported on the roof.

When you enter it, your health goes up, and then you get squashed by a func_door which gives you 500 health. I know this will cause lots of issues, but who cares? xd
Oh, I've seen that option for real-time lighting. I thought it only affects stuff like explosions etc.

I was told by Glockster that the Bevel texture is useful for this. Basically, I hid the ramp so you can see what's going on.
When I'd go up the stairs, I'd have a little bump on the top part. When I put the Bevel texture there, going from the flat surface to the slope felt like a smooth transition. Mmm... :]
Also, for comparison:
Low-poly vs. high-poly version. :3
fun_kobbl will be more like a mix of high-poly and low-poly.

Hmm, I think I should post about this in the Now Playing thread. Isn't that a thread for music?
I also like game soundtracks, Vietnam War songs, and Serbian war songs which Stojke hates, apparently, even though he's a Serb. I'm just so confused by that...
Oh, also, DooM 1 and 2 soundtrack in metal.
Edit:
Also, you think this is traditional Bosnian folk?

HELL YEAH, halving the wpolys like it's 1999.

If I converted the tables at the cafe into models, as well as most detail props in the map, and placed the cyclers, the console would probably give me an error:
"Too many entities visible in packet list"
Yeah, that's why I completely replaced my func_walls & illusionary entities with func_details.

de_kobbl took a heavy beating from Glock18. So I'll have to update it again. XD
So, I improved the bricks. Now they're not sticking out of the wall, but they're rather slapped onto it.
Made the stairs repeat less... and that reminds me of these:
So repetitive... 
I also made changes to the spades near the table. Now they look more like a V-shape thing rather than square-shaped.
Lastly, I made the low-res textures for the GSU version. On my next map, I'll try out a new method. ^^
Basically, Glock told me that de_kobbl's biggest flaw is the fact that I have lots of wpolys.
I was able to reach over 7000 wpolys on the T spawn. Seriously. And I was able to reach 9000 wpolys in fun_kobbl!!!

It was really fun, actually. One bot had a rocket launcher, and I did too. We met on the starting part of the map and shot each other with a few rockets. His rocket hit me, mine hit him. LOL. We died at the same time.
Also, 120fps. Man, I love DirectQ. <3
Don't worry. Realistically, programming would be more useful than mapping, so there. I still haven't moved from QBasic.
And that's what I get for being lazy. Dangit, I'll be a failure in life.
