Yes, with a func_tracktrain, func_train, and a func_vehicle + controls.

You mean like a drive-anywhere car? I think you need to put an orign bush somewhere in the car.

Errr, I thought you could only do this in Counter-Strike not Half-Life. The closest to a car that you will get in Half-Life is a drivable train that runs on a track. You can adjust the speed but that's it. You can make cars in Counter-Strike. They are pretty buggy though and drive like shopping carts.

i think anthony knows his shit. hl would have had a car if they could have done it.

Yeah, I'm mapping for Cstrike. Oops. Although the Invasion MOD had a drivable tank that actually handled like one...not a tracktrain either. A fully drivable tank. 360* movement, free driving...Wheee!

MOD's inevitably have new code ;)

You'd need the fgd too. I don't think it'd work...worth a try however.

Thanks Peace and Love!! :P

There is a tutorial for this on Counter-Map.

Or you could always take a look at the code for CS, then look at the code for Half-Life, compare the two, find the car bit and put it into the Half-Life dll and make a new mod! Very rough idea...

hmm, if you would include the counterstrike dll's in your map.zip file and make sure they come in the right folder you should have the cs entinitys in hl.
That would be making a mod, Pepper. Wich is quite useless as you could simply make a CS map too... Besides, the game doesn't use the dlls of two mods together...
You'd need the fgd too.
Not necessary. It's possible to map without anything in your fgd, or a totally wrong/different fgd. It's pretty hard though as you'll have to enter all entity names yourself, and their keys and values, but it's possible.

I thought CS was not open-source, Anthony?

lol it wasn't exactly a serious suggestion...
Besides I have no idea how to code. It was basically a stab in the dark. Oh well!

I never said Anthony was wrong.

hmm, if you combine the 2 dll's and then make the car contols and entinity itself in your fgd. it should work. and you include a warining in your zip that it will replace your orignal dll's of hl, it should be possible!!
Posted 19 years ago2004-06-17 11:28:18 UTC Post #34289
You can only combine 2 dlls with the source code, Ive tried putting to game dll's in onr liblist and it crashed Half Life. But if your just trying to make a car and not a mod that supports most of the cs stuff, you might want to not try this...

Sorry Mapper_man my car doesn't go anywhere. when i said i made a car i meant a thing that looked like a car that was solid:)

ah, yes you can make those yourself. use the textures as reference and make sure you are going to use a lot of vertex manipulation it can cause weird errors
