These things are pure basics. May I recommend you to take a look in the tutorial section.
Why don't you try telling us the settings you've used for your door. 
This thing interests me and I'll definitively watch it to get his opinion on the 9/11 event and what followed. Sadly I don't think that political issues is very popular on these boards. 
Haha, only because everybody knows people in Finland can't read grin -Say what?grin -
with a prise of $5000 it cant be a bad thing to enter. I just posted this just incase some of you missed it in the steam news thing, (or dont have steam) I know there are some very talented mappers on this site so i was just saying "Go open hammer and win yourself $5000 grin -I fear what signals this will send to the community, or rather some parts of the community. Mapping is supposed to be an art, you know.
Go to a public building in your city and have a look around.

Easy there ZL...
But you're right. It's necessary to know of the control panel if you're going to deal with windows. I didn't know that the control panel had the sound settings for MSN. I'm going to change them right away.

Providing everything went well during compilation.
Why is there a Change Directory command after the CSG process?
"Wink" CS Entity Guide "Wink"
the BSP program, after having received a half-completed file from CSG, generates a executable .bsp file. VIS then add further data to too speed up rendering times and such. This modified .bsp is then submitted to RAD and added the visual data. The final product is still in .bsp form.
The SDK if I'm not mistaking. Requires programming skills though.
Make a teleport and let it go to a room that looks like the other map. Then a changelevel_brush covering the area where you appear.
Configuring a router can be a considerable challenge. Port forwarding is usually located in the router settings, under either basic or advanced settings. If no player is able to join the server, this might be a sign that WAN is blocked (Wide area network). WAN must usually be enabled for servers. Furthermore you should also disable any software firewalls running. They hinder peformance and makes your server laggy. All these settings also gives hackers easier access to your computer so be careful. It's wise to have someone experienced set up these things.
Post the whole compiling report.
You guys want new stuff already?
Do I really have to go and buy HL2 and start writing tutorials already??? :

"wink" The one which opens up decals.wad will find out. "wink"
Maybe using a plugin.
The Welsh meaing of "Cariad" was new to me.
Are there anything odd in the compiling report?
The tutorial says every decal needs a { before their name. And the transparent areas had to be painted black I think. All that info could be gained from that tutorial.
As Gone_Latin stated, vertex and clipping. Beware of going too small though. Compiling will crash if the blocks are < 1 grid size.
By reading SlayerA's tutorial.
I would try using brushes and make them part of the train. Don't focus too much on realism in HL.
Are you trying to create an Unreal Tournament moving train scenario?
Bad news.
Steam has removed the in-game strings and therefor the tutorial has become obsolete, at least that part. Does the console background and startup-screen still work?
Sorry, strings.lst isn't used anymore. The tutorial was written for the old HL.

Bump...
Let's do this stepwise:
1. Make sure the file is called strings.lst
No other name will work.
2. Make sure the path is correct
3. Make sure you've written the number before the string
4. Make sure all your strings are enclosed with " "
If it's still not working, send the file to me and I'll have a look at it.

You know: I overheard a discussion between two mappers on IRC.
1. Where can I get some some tutorials?
2. Well there's Vlatitude, Valve erc and so on. Don't go to TWHL though.
3.Why not?
4.Bunch of kids who like to spam. Avoid them.
This isn't the way it's supposed to be right???

Yep... this site hasn't changed a thing. Been gone for some time now guys. Well truth is I can't come back yet. Pretty busy in RL. 
Just checking in and see how everyone's doing.
ps. I'm sure Jobabob is going to complain about my avatar again.

Radiant
The only way to map for ROTW is to use Radiant. And Radiant is difficult compared to hammer. Worrying difficult. Take it from me. I use it.

What a waste of a question. I should read better from now on.
So let me get this straight:
-Names are correct.
-Values are correct.
example 255 255 255 0000 would mean no light.
-In the same folder.
It should work...

Is the lights.rad in the same folder as hlrad?
yeah... could be anything. At least it can't find your .bsp in your map folder. Look at your compiling report for errors and your setup for where the files are sent.
qbsp2.exe v2.2 (Dec 28 1998)You have a leak + you're using crappy compiling tools. Read the compiling report before posting!

ok... Seems to me your entity settings are messed up. Check the angle the door is supposed to rotate. Double-check the name of the func_door_rotating and the target of the func_button. One Character wrong and the door will have a name (--> Locking it) but the button can't target it because the values don't match. Check the origing brush as well.
Craash If I see you taunting actual newbies who actually has difficulties with these things then I will taunt you. There's no shame in asking these questions if they have tried to their greatest ability to get it done properly before posting. :
Cube prefabs, for example special crates and boxes.
Try Brattylord's then.
No. Anyway who's smarter here? The fool or the ones that reply to him?
Ministeve... Seriously avoid such replies. Makes no sense -> Spam. :

This doesn't belong in the site comments/suggestions forum. Rahzel, think twice next time you're about to post this... er... "cough" info. "cough".
What's the point with this topic?
There's a tutorial at www.vlatitude.com
This particular topic has been held before. I recommended the null thing that time too. A search for water came up with two pages of water stuff.
Seriously!!! WTF!!! :
