hey all, how do i set the env_fade to fade in at the beginning of the level and say "subject (name of person here) Assignment: (whatever) Status: (whatever) then fade out and into game?
thanks,

I'd say one env_fade, color "0 0 0", alpha 255, duration 0, with the "Stay Out" flag checked. Fire this with a logic_auto's OnMapSpawn output; this should make the player's screen black when he spawns... then, use another env_fade with the "Fade From" flag checked, color "0 0 0", alpha 255, change the duration as necessary.

Or you could just use the first fade: fire it automatically, then have it fade out after a duration (assuming Hold Time controls how long to wait before it begins fading).

but how to get the text?

I think you can do all of that by going to map properties, (where you change your assigned 3D skybox) theres a fade in option, and a chapter title option, include your info in chapter title, that could work decently
