Tip: When you finished your maps, rename your rmf's to logical names, without _beta after it.

saturday... erm. tommorrow

you'll also get the custom code (courtesy of muzzleflash) and you must promis not to distribute or edit it in any way until the final version is released
Archie ArchieGoodbye Moonmen
Posted 18 years ago2005-10-07 16:46:59 UTC Post #140170
can we have a full list of custom code changes?

and now I accually need your answers to the questions I asked eairlier.

so, i want anyone who wants to contribue opinion's

1: Should the Bomb be in a random silo when the map loads

and

2: What HL2 song do you like better? Song 16, 20(submix 0), or 29.

And MuzzleFlash, what level of credits do you plan to have in the beginning? like just our TWHL names or like the whole shabang of credits. I plan on having everything at the end but with the:
firstname 'TWHL name' lastname
thing(unless you don't want your name attributed to a great game :P )
Posted 18 years ago2005-10-07 16:58:58 UTC Post #140175
What HL2 song do you like better
using hl2 sounds or musics in hl1 with any kind of purpose is illegal.So the answer is none of them
Posted 18 years ago2005-10-07 18:28:22 UTC Post #140183
its not illegal as long as its not sold
Posted 18 years ago2005-10-08 03:00:58 UTC Post #140214
Yea. You must ask for rights only if you use the songs for commercial purpose.
I think that making a HL mod with the HL2 music is far from illegal.. :)
Why not use normal music for credit music? HL2 songs aren't very original.. :

Should the Bomb be in a random silo when the map loads
Well, i made the end of HS5C to suit the beginning of the map you sent me a few weeks ago, gargly so it just ends with 2 big red sliding doors in a corridor where the levelchange between our chapters will be... after that it's really up to you. What i definately didn't expect was the elevator ride where you can see the surface and a helicopter and stuff... All the previous base maps were set underground and it is a little strange to have a sudden apppearance of the surface. If it isnt vital, could you maybe block that off? put something else there? if it is vital, i'll add a whole lotta stairs at the end of my map :)

As for the bomb... its the warhead. the actual explosive device. I have the missile in my map so you should have it in a silo type thing only with pipes and tanks off ooze and things like that. if you could use the model they use from opposing force it would be perfect. You put it wherever you want. It is your chapter

It's still illegal even if you don't make money out of it,
unless you have permission from Valve.

No-one will care tough.

Edit: oooh, it's saturday

Opposing Force had a nice bomb :)
And the credits should be interactive for more interest e.g. 3rd person shooting monsters in a black box with the text coming up...

Do you mean something like this: during the intro map, which im making, all out TWHL names apprear on the screen. Im not going to use texture for those, because i have a moving camera sequence. And then in the final credits map, we can have our first name - TWHL name - last name.

Im ok with that. :)

oh, and chickenfist, i expected an awful lot more form your review/report. Be more specific and constructive critism would go a long way too.

as for ambient sounds, i wasn't really concentrating on them for the beta.. i was really just trying to get it playable. As for the room dubbed 'storage room 1' i myself dont know what i was thinking.. i needed a place to put grunts and dead assasins as if a battle had just rages and storage room popped into my head. unfortunately, my idea of a storage room is a little strange

okay.. well im gonna ask habboi to do it as well.

on daubster's review, i fixed many of the bugs you pointed out but i just cant seem to turn that storage room into something interesting

How close is the rest of the team for beta testing?
Archie ArchieGoodbye Moonmen
Posted 18 years ago2005-10-09 12:17:52 UTC Post #140509
You can copy the storage room into a separate rmf and send it to me. I'll make it more interesting.. :)
