lol.

Use sprite fixer to orient a sprite.
You can find it on this page of downloads.

Oh, I misunderstood your question.

You can normally orient a sprite that always faces the camera,
you can lock its Z-axis so it faces the camera but only horizontally,
or you can have the orientation be set by the direction set in its properties in hammer.

If you have any other questions, just let us know.

Avoid special characters including currency symbols in posts until penguinboy fixes the issue

i have a problem
my sprite is well oriented with the properties in hammer the problem is that it is always at angle zero oriented in the game.
in Hammer however it appears to work normally, well faced
i run hammer 3 5 3 and hl won
i already tried sprite fixer
the problem comes not from the sprite but from the orientation in the game
in the y axis I can change the sprite orientation in the game but when i change the value of the x axis in hammer my sprite is anyways facing angle zero in the game.
i can eventually talk

Can you upload your sprite so we can test it ourselves. It might be a hammer version thing, BSP version thing, or WONHL thing, not sure how to debug this but I would check it out for you.

The issue with certain special characters making the posts blank should be fixed now. Sorry for the inconvenience. Here is a link with technical details of the problem for those interested.

Unicode is still not supported and will just do this silly thing: あ (this is due to the western charset which will break too many things to change easily) I fixed the stupid backslash thing so now you can paste log files without path names C:Program FilesLookingLikeThishlrad.exe

I will check out the sprites later today and see what's up. If I have the same problem and fix it, I will send them back and tell you what I did so you can continue your work.

Ok... I can't seem to fix this one.
I completely remade a sprite and it wouldn't be oriented with the hammer parameters. I'm on Steam HL too so this one is baffling me quite a lot.

How does that explain Rimrook still being able to see it and reply?

I presume educated guesses. I mean, with that kind of thread name, you're generally getting what it says on the tin :lol:

Yeah I was guessing, though I can't seem to fix the problem. Could someone else check it out just to make sure I'm not going crazy and replying to invisible things?

You're not crazy, it doesn't display for me either. Probably Penguinboy has to manually tinker with the post in the database for it to work.
Posted 10 years ago2014-08-28 04:56:07 UTC Post #321494
What are you talking about? Penguinboy already explained this. Like, 8 posts up.
I would imagine he meant check the problem. Y'know, the one about sprites that shouldn't be happening.

TL;DR: We can't see posts. Rimrook replies anyway. Penguinboy fixes bug that prevents text from being displayed. Text still isn't displayed.
Posted 10 years ago2014-08-28 20:25:32 UTC Post #321508
The bug was in posting, not displaying. The database is blank for the blank posts.

Quick, make up a post!

No no no, could someone look at the sprites and see if someone could get them working so Loulimi can get on with his day?

I'm starting to think DiscoStu can't see what's written in anyone's posts is a lovely fellow.
