Ok, I'm sure everybody visiting this forum has noticed that there are A LOT of beta maps going around, and all this creates confusion about which version is the newest and if it really is the final one.
On the other hand people releasing the maps are getting flamed, which I don't find good...
Ok I'll try that. But I can't believe this can be activated so easy, because I would consider this cheating as people can't hide anymore and you can see everything much easier...
I was just playing some HL2DM on servers which hostet custom maps, so I wasn't surprised when the maps all had this fullbright (no lighting, everything is bright). But when it changed to lockdown I still had this fullbright thing. Attached are some screenshots as proof. However, this doesn't...
Probably the best fun MOD around for the original HL. The weapons all have different functions, as the name suggests the crowbar shoots rockets and that is just the beginning, deathmatch has never been so much fun :cheese: . Fire up a server, have a few people join and let the hilarity ensue. I...
Yeah that sound appears in Starcraft as well. I think the Marines or the Ghost uses it. I don't know if they took it of SC or if SC took it from somewhere else...
I don't understand the arguement that the Hydra would have been no fun to fight...
In HL1 you fight this giant 30m Alien in the Blast Chamber. That was fun as well IMO. They could have done something similar with the Hydra. Don't let the player fight the Hydra directly, but just let him pump...
I found that scene was rather cheap, I really noticed that the city was a simple bitmap with a not really high resolution. And I had my graphic settings quite high...
I have thought about this for a bit now and wanted to share my thoughts:
First of all, I really really miss BMRF. And I have found out what (for me) made Black Mesa so different from City 17 and what distinguishes HL1 from HL2.
Although you as the player visit BMRF for the first time...
Why should Manhacks not attack the player who launches them? The snarks attacked everybody as well... And two Manhacks per player from the beginning would be way to much. Just drop them in the level as a pickup and your fine. But they definitely should destroy themselves after some time, just...
Yeah I have got the same problem. About every second time I start the game it starts validation my files, although I haven't changed anything. What is this crap? :angry: I just want to play a bit, and then I have to wait 10 mins or so...
Is this some kind of copy protection or what? Or is Steam...
Make sure you are choosing the right button. Look at the left, there are the numbers in which order you should do things. The first one to enter is the second button, not the first one. Pay attention to that, it bothered me as well when I first tried.
About the DeviceID: In 3DA it says a...
Ok here is an easy explanation, but I still need some Info as well. I got a Geforce FX 5900. Changing the DeviceID to the one of a Radeon 9800 Pro creates artifacts, so I want to change it to a "normal" Radeon 9800. But how do I find out the DeviceID of the 9800 non-pro?
Here for the...
