How do I make one of those fades with text appearing? Y'know. If you click the left mouse button, it loads the latest save.

You used 3 env fades. Is that because there's three lines of text?

Nope. Both entities have nothing to do with each other. The env_fade makes the screen fade black (or any color you choose) and the game_text displays the text on-screen.

yes. But if you were going to make a mod, you could save yourself the trouble of game_texts and put env_texts in and modify the titles.txt!
But your [i]not[/i] making a mod... right?

I had a fade for a flash of white, one for... something else (not sure), OH GOD MY MONITOR IS DYING!
Nooo!
It's flickering pinkish. Oh good christ. NONONO ARGH pink!!!!1
Oh well, I guess I'll get my dad to dish out for a TFT.
...had one for the fade at the end.
I'm pretty sure I modified titles.txt for my compo entry m'afraid. It's too long for game_texts (limited to ~127chars). Use "n" for a new line with a game_text though, and study the original titles.txt to see how to use that.

OK, I created the fade and text (using game_text). Now how do I make it the end of the game (game over), so it loads the last saved game...
The same thing that happens when you die or kill someone that you need (e.g. the "lambda team" scientist that was left behind to open the door for you)...
How do I turn it into an endgame? So it doesn't just fade and leave you walking around on a dark screen.

I added a game_end, gave it a name "endgame", and a master "endmulti". I created a multisource with the name "endmulti". In the multi_manager (I used it also for the fade and text) I added a 3rd keyvalue (Key=endmulti, value=10). The multi_manager is activated by an AAAtrigger textured brush.
Result: Fading: OK; Text:OK; End: NO!!!!
Why doesn't this work?

You should post the map in problem maps.

Try fiddling with the game_endsection's properties. I'm fairly sure you can set it to something like "Demo Manual", "Main Menu", etc.
