Yea, but u get ubaer respect if you win it
I agree to this alot. Given that, to me, it sounds like teleportals are gonna be plenty, in fact that teleportals are mostly what was used on Xen. Play through the Xen stages of HL (you can type "map c4a1" in console for a shortcut) and take notes. I found alot of things i never noticed before.

I highly advise you not to use the same teleports as they used in Hl1! :tired:

Hope I'll get to enter. I doubt so really, there're so many things I have to do first once I get my new computer. :(

Well, I meant more like things such as playing excessive amounts of WoW and installing fancy software that I've dreamed of for all my Linux days. :)

Does it need to contain Xen textures? Or can it be a high tech place?

(yes, yes, it's my work around, :D)

Is it allowed to use models from other mods?

Posted 18 years ago2005-08-26 04:39:37 UTC Post #129854
I think so, just make sure you include them (in minimod format if possible) and give credit for the model (if it's from an unofficial mod) !
Posted 18 years ago2005-08-26 04:47:45 UTC Post #129856
I think i get the basic outline of what you need to do. Please correct me if i'm wrong.

We need to make a transport system that takes the player from one place or another. Xen has to be involved as either the starting point or the end point and it has to be pretty and cool to beat all of the elitists entries :cry:

[Edit] It is far easier to do stuff like this in a mini-mod so you don't mess HL1 up. :P

I speak from experience :(

Unbreakable: Well you can use those alien tech textures! :glad: But if you want to make a human base then at list make it understandable that it is in Xen!

ChickenFist: Why not? ;) I used a model from opfor in my entery and I now that I think of it it would have scaled down opfor's Gman then he would be able to push buttons! :(

Urbanebula: Exactly!! But it doesn't have to start in earth or to end in there why not start in xen and end in xen?
Posted 18 years ago2005-08-26 06:38:20 UTC Post #129882
Soo the action has to be in Xen all the time? No Earth?

I hardly use the original HL textures anymore.. :D

I shouldnt be the one to say so, but please dont post your exact compo ideas/theme in the thread. It's better if these things are a surprise. And if people do actually come up with the same transport thingy, we won't have to start the "OMG, You stole my idea WTF!!" type of thread :)
Posted 18 years ago2005-08-26 14:09:27 UTC Post #130005
I believe someone stole my thaughts :) .
Posted 18 years ago2005-08-26 14:18:02 UTC Post #130007
And mine! :lol: At first I thought to make a vehicle that teleports to xen but now I decieded to make a whole mod for opposing force! :)
Posted 18 years ago2005-08-26 14:37:26 UTC Post #130010
Sorry, i believe i put that wrong, it should be read my mind, meaning that i had the same thaught that kasperg also had.

So have I. But my splash screen, console background and custom models are done :)
Since I have exams next month, there is a chance I might have to submit an unfinished entry. I'll do what I can.

2 days on textures and they look not-so-different from the original HL ones except for the fact that the terrain is blended nicely. Besides that setback, I made up some nice xen-type technology that's rather neat. My idea is very solid and hopefully i can get it done. :badass:
