I've included opfor's plant model and marlborometal's key model in my map. I placed them in Valve/models/my_models does that mean that you have to place them in the same directory(probebly not) or anywhere else in valve/models?(I just wanna make sure)

How do you make the vis run on full mode? : (Full-Vis) And my compile takes two hours so should I do it or not for it will fix some problems!

Post #125275
check compile options or something...

Use a full compile when you are done with the map. About the plant model, it would be much better if you made a minimod folder for all the custom content, so judges wont remember your entry by how many files they had to manually place in countless folders

I always make the mini mod folder at the end. Just make your map.. then when it comes time make all the folders (the minimod) and try running it, if you get an error, like a missing ambient file, or model, then just go and copy them in until it works.. I find it alot easier. Yet it's the lazy way
I don't feel like configuring Hammer for another mod.. maybe i should though, It would be a great idea to name the new configuration Competitions

Elon, if you are not going to make the map in minimod format, then you should at least place your files in existing folders, like:
valve/sound/ambience
valve/sprites/
valve/models etc. so everybody that tries your map doesnt need to create new folders. But making a minimod is quite easy. My compo entry was a minimod.

Well then I'll just move them to valve/models!

Can you just make a zip-file with maps like models/sounds etc.?
Is that a minimod?

A minimod is something which appears in the Third-Party Games section of the Steam Games menu, or, in WON HL, the Custom Games menu. The basic set-up is the same; what works for WON HL will work on Steam (although the custom menu stuff doesn't work any more, sadly).

Pretty much all you need is a liblist file, seeing you already have your models folder, sound folder.. etc

While you guys have been jabbering away in here about your entries I would just like to say Straightens self out ...ahem...
1) I've completed my entry
2) I designed the whole thing at work (nothing is getting in the way this time)
3) I created the level while setting up a new hardrive including ripping the one with my HL folder out of my pc, formatting and reinstalling (like i said, NOTHING GETS IN THE WAY!)

I'm making the minimod know and I have a little quastion! I wont need to change anything in the map if I'll move the models to mymod/models directory,Right? Could stay like this- models/model.mdl And if I'll put sounds in mymod/sounds/player with the same name of ones that are in valve/sounds/player,will they replace the the regular sounds when I'm playing my minimod?

Elon, after creating the minimod, compile the map again (with a new game configuration, of course) and check if everything works.
A wav file with a defined path of valve/sounds/ will not work if you have that file in mymod/sounds. Just move the sounds and change the paths.
Edit:same goes for models, etc

But I need the sounds to replace the original ladder sounds when I play the minimod so I can't rename them!
Posted 18 years ago2005-08-12 15:55:25 UTC
Post #127303
But in that case, you were planning on making everyone have their ladder sounds replaced in the official valve folder?
Well, it's your call. I dont know how important those ladder sounds are for your entry

well, next time, don't rename them, just put it in you mods sound folder.. example: Sierra/Half-Life/mycompoentry/Sounds/Ambience/ladder.wav
(or wherever the ladder sound is.. ambience perhaps?..)

Problem:
Ok, it's now official, there's no way I can finish it, All I got is the outside done, the train underground layer (secret train station) and 2 rooms, so, my question is, what can I do guys?

Realse it afterward as a regular map! Or do like what I did-worked on it all day and night! : Altough I started working on it like that when it was nearly finished. 
SHIT...I forgot to tell who made the models! Well I'll tell it here- I used marlborometal's key,opfor's plant model and rescaled the Gman! :

Submit it even if it's unfinished. I did that, added a "TO BE CONTINUED" game_text and won the gold trophie 
You might not get gold if it's unfinished, but other people may have your problem too. You still have chances, think about it

Ok, will do, I'll just limit the mansion inside to the master bedroom, the main entryway, and hallways with closed doors. It'll still be playable, only you won't have to find the hidden entrance to the train, you'll just go there.. Sounds good then, so whens it due, tomorrow when?
My time is Eastern Pacific time... sooo... ?

I think you can update your entry so just send what you have now (just in case). And then send the finished product if you finish it.
