Wicked, well, the splash entry will be updated. By the way, right click and save as 'splash.bmp' and put it in the appropriate folder, (gfx/shell..? or something.) and run hl, it looks sweet in-game.

the finished pic looks all blurry now, not good. and the g-man should be more faded, the HL logo in the first one looks great, but you can't see it anymore with the g-man how he is.
and I can whip you up an logo avi. I did it once and I can do it again.

I was told that the wind effect made it look much better.. oh and as for the logo.avi, I've made many, and the avi file should be 600x100,
And it is perfectly placed when your in the game.
Trust me I know what I'm doing.. lol

What program did you use Gargly? For the lettering? I used animation Shop pro.. so I could'nt make cool art effects like that...

Corel PhotoPaint 8.
for the lettering i used the same program, I just selected the pipeline font, typed it in. did some wierd effects to it to give it something inside it(it was hollow when typed), then gave it that white scrach effect. then copied it into 50 frames and put in the lens flare.
it took me about an hour and a half to finish

Don't know.. imageshack only allows up to 1024KiB's
umm... Try deleting ever second frame to make it half the size.

Hey, Unbreakable, neat stuff. If only it was a bit smoother...we should be able to find some kind of use for those.
I have Photoshop 7, if anyone has a place I can host it, I'll give it to y'all. Not exactly a "legal" version, crack included.

Argh. Crappy quality.
Also, I GOT A CUSTOM DLL READY FOR YOU GUYS! I'll upload it soon, so it can be used in the mod. With the dll i made, we have:
AI for Otis from OppFor. (he behaves like barney and interacts with other NPC's like randomly talking)
-Picking up a tripmine/grenade will add one tripmine/grenade to your inventory, not 5 of em.
-Decreased mp5 current ammo capacity in clip form 50 to 30.
Thats all.

- Customizable HUD color. (Has nothing to do with the mod, its just a funny extra.)

@ Unbreakable: I use MSVC++6.0 to compile the SDK.
Why do you want the spirit.dll?
My geuss it that you want the spirit.dll because of the "move with" option for most entities.
I can try adding that part of the spirit code in my code for the mod, and you might be able to use the "move with" option on many entities, with just our mod dll.
Note that i never tried that before, and there might be a chance that i won't get it done...
So tell me what you would like.
No wait, i got a better idea:
Ill take the spirit source code, and im gonna add all those features in there, without adding one spirit feature into the existing code.
Uhm... yeah.

you have any idea what the problem is?.. Anyone?
By the way I made a song for Saco's mod, and thought, maybe we should have a Theme song, so I was wondering if I can create one?
Heres an example one I made for Saco: http://www.acidplanet.com/artist.asp?PID=566192&T=5205

You're error is because the program is not designed to work on a dos based, or windows operating system... It's either 1. damaged, 2. Designed for MAC or 3. Designed for Linux

I will write the code for the mode this week, probably tomorrow.
With it, our mod will have Spirit of Half-Life support, and some extra new features like dynamic world lighting.

Post #114135
Uhm, before you W00T to loud, note that it will not look like Half-Life 2's Dynamic Lighting. The only DL im adding is world lighting during an alien attack. For example, when a alien grunts attacks, you see a purple sprite flash coming out of his hive hand weapon. Im going to add a little bit: the world around the alien grunt will now light up with a purple color.
Another example are the orange energy balls from the alien controller. These will light up the world with an orange color.
I hope i don't dissapoint you with this...

not me.. but you never know.
Another thing muzzleflash.. Could I get the source off of you when you've added your stuff.. cuz' i might want to add a little myself.. just minor things however..
All you other people involved, you guys don't have to get familiar with the spirit.dll if you don't want too.. however I know me myself will be using some of the new features like the bullettime effect for one of my scenes, along with the movewith function.
