in Valve removes Family Sharing from the Steam. (In early 2025)/ Post #349334
2 months sounds like a long time and a lot of things can happen in between then and now. To be honest.
I want source to be open source...
Want some help on how to get multiple AABB collision responses working. Currently I'm checking if one bounding box collides with another, which pushes it back depending on the speed and direction between the two's center positions. It's not a viable function so I want a better one. Can someone help here? It's for my Xbox homebrew engine.

I don't know what Half-Life's lore is on this but isn't Gordon a Mary Sue? A scientist with a crowbar that can kill fully trained military soldiers and alien forces single handedly. Is there something missing here?

I think Half-Life 3 wouldn't be successful or even considered good without Marc Laidlaw. Isn't it he that made the game what it is more than Gabe? And the community is possibly too nitpicky with the quality of the game to accept an "At Least Decent" game.
I'm honestly exited for Valve to fail and lose its reputation. This has gone on for too long.

To be honest. Valve doesn't deserve to be on top anymore with everything that is happening. Great line of games end all of a sudden? I don't care anymore, less toxicity among people then.

I would rather want you to do it the old fashioned way. It's more of a healthy learning curve and it's free.
Hi. How to make the pathfinding system in Half-Life for my own engine where less nodes is good? There's already an A-Star system in there but it's not too good for my needs currently. Does HL use line/ray casting for specific location detection in navigation calculations? I'm curious.

Programming a relationship changer can work too but that requires it to be a mod and that you can program it in. Just giving out a thought.

Is it a mod or a map? If it's a mod then you could probably program it in.
If not then I'm not useful here.

Feels a lot like Alien Trilogy to me.
Change of plans. I will pay whoever is willing to code and create the compiler tools from the Sin SDK. Anyone that can program in the compiler's code is accepted. Further information will be given when willing.

After awhile I've figured that the cst isn't needed since there's other 2005 based compilers somewhere. The Sin Episode SDK worked better for the Xbox and are a better bet for modification for the OG Xbox port. I'm still no Source Engine programmer so I ask again if someone can help here.

The Xbox community would be in depth if someone finished this.

I know. They had a discord that I was a member of. I don't know what happened to it, if it was removed or that I was banned from it. They managed to make a compiler themselves that worked with the Xbox port but I can't find it anywhere.
I want to try make my own since I can't find the server and the members.

Messed with the code and got it to stop working so I decided to go with separated collision triangles instead.
It wasn't a complex engine anyway so it works fine.

I've made a stair climbing system for the engine though it isn't as good as I wanted it to be. But I've come up with a fix for the raycast method.
Also this is the ray-triangle code that I used.
EDIT:
Credit to Admer for giving me some code to work with.

Now I feel like making a Quake 1 based engine myself.
Have a view of my macOS game Hostility.
It's a turn based strategy game. Currently in the prototype stage.
It's probably mdl root motion based but I don't know.
I believe you have to replace the mdl files (But make backups of the old) with the appropriate ones. But I didn't do that since I don't own Blue Shift.
I also learned to not write your gmail as your username for everyone to see. Spammers can get to it.

Couldn't make step-offset work but I will try make OBBs work. I will relay on invisible colliders for stairs and small edges for now until I get it working.
Had been talking to Admer about slopes and got it working. Now I need to work on step-offset for stairs and Capsule colliders. I had looked up This when I struggled with collision detection and it might be a good source for information right now.
Here's some screenshots from in-engine. (If anyone's still interested)

I got it working myself! Now the player can collide and slide on a triangle!
1 triangle. When going to a corner the player goes through another. Will get to work on fixing that. Also I switched to a sphere collider and will try to implement a capsule collider later on.
EDIT:
Got it working myself again.

I've found this But it's not constructed like the code I have. If someone knows how to help then do that please.
Achievement! I got it working! Now I need to make the AABB object oriented and make the player slide on collision (There's a function in the Xbox Home-brew website to make collision reaction).
Thanks for clarifying me about that site Admer. I don't think I ever got this far with engine making with DX8.

I tested the code and I think my only problem is the AABB system that I'm using. Anyone willing to help?
Having some problems getting my levels to load on the hardware currently so I wasn't able to program any collision code yet. In the mean time someone can translate the code to C++ for me. If someone wants to convert it. Currently the problem to understand about it is the SAT sections.
EDIT:
Got the engine to load levels again somehow and will work on collision detection next.
This is the level that I'm gonna use. (Straight from the Console itself)
EDIT2:
Having trouble getting through this line.
{ if (Max(-Max(p0, p1, p2), Min(p0, p1, p2)) > r) }
Anyone with a 3 parameter function for this?

This post was made on a thread that has been deleted.
I've found that one before but it doesn't look like C++ programming. But it's convertible at least.
Has a bit of a "Too Long Didn't Read" problem with instructions like that. But I can look this through.

Is there a way to fix it?
I forgot about the camera entity's name.
Didn't the view changer start from the player's view rotation and rotate it slowly when activated? Or is it just me?
This was an issue for me to figure out how to make an aabb (obb) collide with triangles on my Xbox engine and since people can C++ here, I'll ask here.
I'm Swedish and I don't play Minecraft.
I did some work on the first Orb-map and would want to share it to the other developers if possible. Here's some screenshots.
It's not really anything to gasp over but it looks fine for me. But I might be too simple. I'll send the vmf to the others via pm if any of you wants to see it or improve it a bit.
