    All water map spanning the entire possible size?

    Hmm... How does one cut it up using portals? But if that doesnt help compiling its not very good. Another thought, is everything still "built" if there is a physical wall seperating the player from an area he cant possibly get though (just something I accidentally did and got it to build...

    All water map spanning the entire possible size?

    I have tried smaller cubes using one that did build, then just placed 4 of them: Craps out again. The amount of faces that water generate doesnt change with more blocks vs one big block. And I have also tried cheap water, which didnt do anything either. Gonna try some block configurations to...

    All water map spanning the entire possible size?

    I tried making it into squares divided by the hint brushes, but it still craps out... Build says numvertexes == MAX_MAP_VERTS

    Is there any other ways?

    Pff, who cares? EULA doesnt apply in in the EU anyway. Not to mention one only need to use it until one find another way.

    All water map spanning the entire possible size?

    Its still hard to fake something you should be able to travel across ;) At any rate, low roof? Havent thought of that. I didnt have it that high though, but a quickie test shows that lowering it further (about 6 player entities high) makes no difference, still CTD...

    All water map spanning the entire possible size?

    I tried that, it didnt alter anything, sigh... Its something in the water (hehe). Even though the map has like 80 faces, it appear to shoot through the roof when building it. Oh well, I have to get some sleep.

    All water map spanning the entire possible size?

    Tried scaling the texture up, no change. The scaling everything down thing is of course an option, but I want to recycle a bunch of HL2 stuff... So its not really something I would like to start fiddling with. Does splitting a level work in multiplayer? That's its use :) For SP that...

    All water map spanning the entire possible size?

    I havent measured the water bodies in HL2... I dont draw it around a level, I just try making an entire box. Its difficult to compare sizes. And yes I need that much water since it would be a sea map. Not something you just see in the distance, something you can actually travel. The biggest...

    All water map spanning the entire possible size?

    Well mostly water, maybe a few small islands. Is this even possible? I might be doing something wrong, but I keep getting BSP errors (max leaf/faces for some reason) OR when it does build the game simply boots me to the desktop. Too much stress for it? It works up to a point making the...

    Is there any other ways?

    I think you missed my posts just above this regarding the fact that the free compiler (VS 2005 beta) DOES work...

    Modding Weapons

    Try STUB_WEAPON_CLASS( weapon_deagle, [whatever you named your class minus the C], C_BaseHLCombatWeapon ); That's following the same design at least.

    It deletes the prt. file AUTOMATICALLY !

    Dont think you are meant to fix it, maps are in .bsp format. .prt is only a part of the compile, no? If one fail, the next fail and in the end the final build fail: The map doesnt appear "updated" from last build. So what you need to fix is some sort of error in the map. Dunno what prt...

    Boring mods

    A big part is that you have to start somewhere. 65-75% wont reach alpha? There are probably 80%+ that hasnt even made a mod before. If 5-15% of newbie modders are succesfull, that's still a significant acheivement :) As for me, I still see it as a learning process, something fun to do...

    Mod Concept - Survive and Scavenge

    Sometimes its the opposite, a story can be too complicated. In this case for example, what's the deal with the farm and the old dude? Seems redundant. The player is in a town, I'm sure tons of people have weapons there. But of course, dont know the rest of the story, if it will have...

    HL2 Mods

    Since no one but the developers know, I would advise visiting the webpages and simply ask. But most will probably say, "when its ready" ;)

    understanding coordinates system?

    Depends on what system one use ;) Dont know what HL2 use, havent checked into that. I do think that you got yaw and pitch wrong though: shuffle them with each other.
