I've already tried mapping with the included fgd. Unfortunately I get a "mod_loadbrushmodel wrong version number error" which I assume comes from the fact that the compiling tools in Hammer are too new for the old engine.
Either way it's pretty damn awesome, but does anyone know how to enable the 'use' key, or if it even existed this far back? It's not under options anywhere I noticed and while shooting stuff in the default tech demo map works, it does not in the actual game. I pretty much have to noclip through doors right now.

Just curious, did you use the included Worldcraft/compile tools, X-Layer? Or the official build of Hammer and its tools?
Ima give it a whirl myself once I look through all of the beta content.

I used Hammer 3.5, The old worldcraft version included tells me I'm missing my d3drm dll which I'll assume is because the version of DirectX it uses is old and I don't have it.

I am surprised that they keep such a old file, but not a cool movie for example, that is MUCH younger! Off-topic, sorry.

That is basically quake engine at that point so its compilers might work.

Anybody else getting errors saying "Can't int monster human_assault" when they load up maps with the minigun grunt in them? I don't know if he's just broken and doesn't load with this version of the game or if it's something on my end.

I like how the halflife.wad file actually has some "new" textures in it that don't exist in the retail/Steam version halflife.wad. I'd use them.

You mean "new" as in 15 years old?

Very interesting! I saw the old trailers but never had a chance to try it. Thanks for sharing.

At least it shows where half of the unseen textures in the retail halflife.wad were used, such as all the drkmlt stuff
