I'm not sure what you're talking about here.. I was referring to the antlions spawning further away, so that they wouldn't just fly into the compound immediately and negate the point of having walls and mounted guns. Sorry for the confusion.
About three minutes ago was the most recent one. Going through my screenshots, out of the corner of one I just noticed that the door you originally see being guarded in City 17 by two metrocops [the building that's being raided] is later walled off when you go back there again. That made me...
You could make them spawn further away so that it might make it useful to defend the walls instead of retreating into the compound and shooting at them when they fly in.. maybe.
I found that with Half life 1, every single room, corridoor and setting had personal charm and care put into it, and had its own personality. Every single part of the map was lovingly crafted, not just slopped together to get from A to B to C like in other games.
Half life 2 had less...
Does it really bloody matter? Who cares. I'm sick of all this trollbaiting on the forums. We're supposed to be a decent community, but I'm seeing all these jackasses pop up and start flaming everyone who makes an innocent thread.
[And if anybody starts crapping anything about 'Irony' and...
Wow. Everybody, shut the f--k up. God, you're acting like 2 year olds. Personally, I believe him. Either way, it doesn't really matter. It's something I found pretty cool, that you can potentially play the entire game through without losing a single bit of health, and he went and did it. Some...
That looks to be completely useless on almost every level of mapping.
I'm pretty sure there's a reason professional and even amateur mappers don't use this.
Out of curiosity, how would/should my computer run HL2 [i already played the game], and what would be the main bottlenecks in terms of performance?
AMD athlon xp 2400+ [2.0GHz]
512mb ram
radeon 9800 pro 128mb
(windows xp pro)
all my hdds are heavily fragmented.. what would be the main...
Make sure they're not clipping anything.
Make sure they're not "asleep".
Make sure they have weapons.
Make sure it's not HL2DM [AI apparently doesn't work].
If that doesn't work, try giving them paths [go to their properties and look around, it'll be fairly self-explainatory].
It looks fun. My crits as well:
I agree with torso boy. The skybox and ending of the level is a bit wonky right now :)
I also think the spotlights would be better as stadium lights. They even look like it, just change the lights to cover more area :)

A tip for the map itself - you'll want to edit it a fair amount once you start playing [have test runs asap, as often as possible]. I'd suggest looking at the layout [i assume you have one] and focusing your detail / gameplay on the choke points and areas of high traffic. I.e all those different...
You seem to have a lot of water - it strikes me that there would be a lot of places for people to camp, if players can go in it easily.
Also, your water actually works. Teach me how to do mine :(
Basically what I need now is someone who knows the ropes and what to do in a singleplayer mod [for Halflife2]. I need them to either sit down with me [online] and answer all/any questions I have, or do that and stick around with me for a while as I find more questions I need answered.
I need...
That's definitely my thoughts as well, and it's really quite sad. All the normal earth species are dead and gone now, except for a select few [cockroaches, crows, etc]. They will never grow back - they are all extinct, if not irretriveable as a species. Our oceans are dead, replaced by an alien...
This may sound a little excessive, but uh.. throughout the entire game, one play through, first go, I took 2205 screenshots.
Basically I just hit my screenshot key every time I saw something cool.. thus, 2205 ;)
