Almost done with hs4a's architecture, just gotta finish the lighting and entity work, add some enemies/supplies and it'll be done.

Seems all the 'dead' replies revised it and motivated the team. Good job.

Can someone conjure up a estimated release date or completion percentage?

Somebody really ought to update the Mod DB page. Cobwebs are starting to collect on it.

Post #210991
Yeah.
M_Garg should give the team members mod access, so that they could upload media themselves, provide info, etc.

I have some more features planned:
- Particle system (from Spirit)
- New HUD icons (by Captain P)

Post #211242
Why not just use Spirit as base? Would allow me to do more advanced stuff in my maps.
Posted 17 years ago2007-01-31 08:34:01 UTC
Post #211243
Because Spirit is buggy and not really stable...
Posted 17 years ago2007-01-31 11:49:54 UTC
Post #211263
Actually, the latest Spirit version (1.5a4) is very stable.

Post #211265
Oh right.Well, the point some entities don't work the way i want them to work. The func_tracktrain for example is being a pain in the butt. Also, we already agreed since the start of HLHS that we don't use Spirit.

Post #211278
yeah, i'm fine for some things from spirit to be incorperated, but i dont want to use it as the base of the mod.

Hunter, you designed one yourself (I think.) You linked to it much earlier in this thread, maybe even in the previous one. I remember it was really small and tabbed...

He sure did, I remember it using a black background and it had the story, pictures etc.

I'm not happy with the overall lighting of hs5b yet, so at the moment, you're just getting a teaser shot.
Sorry for double post, but media deserves a bump =D

If I know hunter correctly, there'll be porn.
Redhead porn.
I'm in the making of a HL:HS site, preview here, as long as ZLDB.net is up (ie my computer). For any suggestions or pictures or stuff, contact me on irc.

Actually, differently from Gyradell Invasion and sc_pwnstar, there will be no porn in my HS chapter, and would ask that the other members agree not to include any in their's either.
Thanks for building the site, ZL.

I may have some media up soon (in the next couple of days), but it probably won't be what anyone's expecting. That's a good thing, in this case.

What did you change/add from your last backup?
Posted 17 years ago2007-02-15 23:02:10 UTC
Post #212607
Backup? What backup?
It was working last night, and after I changed a few things it's now crashing HL and b0rking up Steam at the same time, which has NEVER happened to me before.
Errr... By the way, is it possible to trigger too many entities at once?

You really don't backup ur stuff? I backup after every hour of editing or so, and after/before making big changes of course.

Tada!
Yes, that's the tractor trailer you're riding in. And yes, you're shooting out the back of it at the grunts in the pursuing trucks, while going about 80 MPH.
Expect some major explosions in this portion of the mod.

But, how did you do it?
The map must be huge, doesn't it lag?

Post #212660
it'll presumably be done like the intro to Opposing Force, where the truck is stationary, and only the map itself and the enemy trucks move.
Posted 17 years ago2007-02-16 09:59:54 UTC
Post #212662
The map still has to be huge? Unless the map is shaped like a big wheel (a la Einstein) wich spinns around so that it can last forever.

No because the blocks teleport back to the start and loop so about say 10 cliffs move from one point to the other and then teleport to the start and repeat. Clever idea I might add.
Posted 17 years ago2007-02-16 12:39:21 UTC
Post #212686
If you do use that method I advise the use of fog. Otherwise you will see the cliffs and road vanishing in chunks behind you and that is pretty ugly.
If you can get this to work, play well and look good then I will do sex with you.

@madcow: and also func_conveyors. The truck itself wont be actually moving... the stuff around it will. But with some env_shake you can make it more realistic.
I guess srry, already though of those.
