Make a killabe gman/kingpin... in HL1 Created 6 years ago2018-03-23 20:55:41 UTC by Mr. Cowboy Zombie

I made an "AAAtriger", put an "env_render" but didnt work.
just help

If you mean plain old Half-Life, then you can’t. You would have to make a mod with custom code to allow that, or make your maps for a mod that already has that.

env render only makes it invisible. use the Kill target of a trigger once and type in the name of the monster (gman, generic, etc.)

(I will now note that I assumed you meant killable in the direct sense.)

I mean be breakable like the chciken from cs_italy

Make a func_breakable that targets the cycler (kill target) the cycler can have a model like the chicken or whatever other model you want; what I cannot remember is that If it need a round_reset or something like that to make it re-appear each time you play the level.

Give your monster_gman a name first. Then, draw an invisible, null-textured brush around him and tie it to func_breakable. Set whatever properties you want, but set the "Material type" field to "Flesh". After that, also set the "Target on break" field to "kill_relay_1", this is going to be the name of our trigger_relay. Create it first, then set the "Name" field to "kill_relay_1". Then type your monster_gman's name into the "KillTarget" field. You may also turn the trigger_relay's "Remove on fire" flag on so it gets removed once it has been activated.

when you say "null textured brush" must be null, not AAATRIGER texture?

null will be invisible in game by default, but any texture would work

I ask it because when I put the "aaatriger" around entity ingame the block is visible lol

Use the AAATrigger texture only on "trigger_" entities. I'd not recommend to use it for anything else.

AAAtrigger isn't a special texture. What makes it invisible is being part of a trigger, because a trigger will be invisible no matter what texture you paint it with. It's only meant to be used for triggers in the sense that it's a colourful texture that contrasts with everything else within the editor.

The only textures naturally invisible in-game are null and clip. Not sure if origin, it might be only if it's part of an entity. I never tested it.

If you were to add a cvar named "showtriggers" and set it to a non-zero value it would make some triggers visible in-game.

You can probably use AMXMod to do that easily.

To make the brush invisible even without using the NULL texture, you can set the render mode to "texture" and the render amount to 0.

Texturing the brush with NULL is a better option because if you do so then the lightmap for this brush will not be generated AFAIK.
