There are six example vmfs in hammer now, perhaps one of them has breen broadcasting in it. If so you can dive in and check the settings to see what makes em tick. I should have known. I forgot all about those. Thanks SAJ. Seems 2 of the new .VMFs aren't working(0 byte files)...that's...

Alllright...no luck so far. Upon loading the level, I first get the following error: "'speaker' entity with no Level/Sentence! at: 593.000000, -893.000000, 54.000000" I ignor this, as I assume it's simply telling me that I have not entered any 'sentence' for the env_speaker to say. I'm...

check out the Entity guide at hl2 world it should help Yeah, they've got a great entity-guide, but there is not tut on the mic/spkr entitys. I also notice that env_speaker does not show up in their list for some reason. I'm testing the different flags right now, and will also try a...

Has anyone managed to get the env_microphone and env_speaker to work with each other? I have searched Google, and their is nothing. In the in-game console, I sill get the error about it not being able to find the speaker. C.H.

What I do for snow effect, is to use the env_embers entity. Works realy great. C.H.

Nice. Tut Resources. Thanks. C.H.

Bttt. C.H.

There might be a way, but I'm betting the way to make vehicles for HL2 is to make a model in XSI or something. C.H.

Ok... I am working with the SDK tutorial on making scripted scenes(sdk_faceposer.vmf). What I can't figure out is how the logic_choreographed_scene 'connects' with the NPC it is supposed to target. I checked all the Output/Input/ClassInfo properties on both the NPC and the...

Nice map. Those rock walls look good, how'd you do that? C.H.

I'm having some gameinfo.txt problems myself. SteamingPile just updated my SDK section and it is my first time setting up WC...Hammer....for HL2 configuration. (The first time I opened Hammer a week or so ago, i was set up and ready to go without even going into the options). This time it...

Hhhhmmm... What exactly are you doing? Are you making a func_water entity or just a func_wall/func_illusion? Or is it just a brush with a certain texture? What 'forefeilds' are you refering to? I remember there being two kinds: 1.) Those large forefeilds that only blocked you, but...

Imagin making a "Stargate" effect in HL2 using the cool water-effects of the engine. Would look great. C.H.

The point is, a single-player game should be a "single-player" game. That is, one that is not dependant on an outside source such as the internet, regardless of how many people in the world have the internet. As for "complaining" on a message borad, I want to state my opinion. If you feal I...

Steam is about control. Do you realise, the combine are actually a metaphor for Steam!! Indeed. The Steam/Valve situation does seem to reflect the game when you think about it. Here's what I wrote on the issue: http://www.halflife2.net/forums/showpost.php?p=1017661&postcount=108...

"Experts said the success of the Half-Life 2 anti-piracy system might tempt other game makers into creating their own version." Oh crap, here we go... "Experts", "success" huh? Valve came out with it, so now everyone wants to follow? This is what I was afraid of. Steam is the worst...

Beanhacker: if all you can afford is dialup... well, you suck. Eletist snob. C.H.

Buying HL2/Steam appears to be much less buying a game than it is buying a passport to live in the Valve community...we could call this community "City17". Since you cannot play it without being "in the community"(having an account, and whenever loginig in online, checking up on you). At...

Well, I to would like to say a few words. This Thread seems to be the place to address Steam, so here goes... They have been trying to force SteamingPile down our throats for a while now. Vavle decided to make HL2, and the rest of their games, "online-games"...wether they were MP or SP...

Mapper's thought process from pre-map to post-map? Good question, and excellent for a Thread. Thanks for posting. C.H.
