Hey there, long time no see...
This is all looking awesome so far, can't wait till October 9th!!
As for that scene with Alyx, it looks like it's set in the old nuclear missile facility that was mentioned a while back (Where Eli and Dr Kleiner set up thier base.) I'm guessing that will be...
After seeking help from here (thanks btw) I decided to try out the env_beam entity. I would like to create the effect that the beam is being contained within a generator.
However, the beam goes outside the area I want it when I'm playing the map. I've tried lowering the radius, but that...
I'm creating a HL2: DM map that has massive generators in the main room. However, I'd like a neon glow effect for the "cores" of the reactors. Is this possible, and if so how do I do it?
Thanks in advance...
When in HL2: DM I have a strange bug. After a random amount of time, all types of sounds/sound effects cease to function, and I get a complete loss of sound. Even after I quit the game, I still have no sound effects what-so-ever, so I need to restart my computer to get sound working again...
I'm not really a n00b to HL mapping but having to ask this makes me feel like one....
How do I select a game configuration for making a map? When I load a map in Hammer, it just comes up to the screen with 4 views and uses the CS: Source cfg data. I can't select HL2 or HL2: DM.
I've tried...
When I try to download a map off a sever in HL2:DM it gets to about 4 or 5 bars before saying "file crossfire2.bsp is missing, disconnecting." And, as it says, it disconnects me from the server. I haven't tried getting maps in CS: Source
What should I do?
Indeed, it is an odd ending, but I doubt Valve would let everyone die.
My theory is that earth could have fused with the Combine home world, if that's what it is. If you look above the portal when the gunships arrive before you kill Breen, you can see an alien homeworld (Combine looking to me...
I feel your pain - I'm still trying to get my systems networked to the net so I can actualy play HL2 myself (stupid bloody net veritfication...) It's looking very doubtful that I'll get it online in time for HL2's release too, I'm I'm screwed...
Well, at least we'll get to play it at some...
Uh-oh, I just thought of a small hint that Gabe dropped in an early statement - "We'll release this game in 2005 if we have to!"
Whilst that isn't a direct quote, that was bassicaly what he meant. Do you think it could be a possible hint towards this? If so, then no HL2 till March 2005 :(
Seconds after drinking Dr. Breen's water from CE...
"Where the hell have I just been? Where am I?" *Picks up HL2:CE* "WTF IS THIS!? Ah, it's probably nothing..." *Chucks it in the trash*
:laugh:
Good find there though, sharp eye ya got there! Wonder if this affects the plot in any way...
Tough question.... I'm looking forward to the entire damn' game myself ^^.
Although I really look forward to the first few levels when Gordon is weaponless. I really want to know what happens when Gordon is shoved in the chair in the questioning/torture(?) room. How does he get out of that...
I remember how I got HL - I'd heard alot of good things about it, so I decided to try out the Uplink demo, and was amazed. A few weeks later, I went with my family to see Star Wars: Episode 1 *what crap that film was* and it was on that day when my parents bought me a copy of Half-Life.
When...
Good to hear an offical satement from Gabe, nice to have a good understanding of what we'll need to run HL2 too.
As for the specs, they don't worry me a single bit. My new system has arrived and is equiped with an Althon XP3200, 512mb RAM and Radeon 9200SE... Okay, so the card sucks but I'll...
Yeah, sucks don't it? Either way, I've pre-ordered from GAME, and I'm hoping that they'll get the Collectors Edition in. If they do, then I'll be sure to set-up camp outside the store the night before the release! ^^
I'm sure it's not, and personaly, I'm not suprised that it's nowhere to be seen. After all, Vavle are keeping details of HL2:CE a secret, so they surely wouldn't allow outsiders to see it until it's ready...
