Jbmod

[Tyguy]

OK, i downloaded it,made a shortcut with -game jbmod -console, and it tells me gameinfo.txt blah blah blah....i notcied its in my steam list, so i clicked that and it brings me to the main menu and i cant do anything, load game or start new game....how do i do this?

 

[Harryz]

Make a shortcut to desktop and do all that crap. Click on it. When the main menu loads up. Press console and type in 'map (somemmat called building blocks should come up). load it.

 

[Tyguy]

If I recall correctly it did that first time with me (not 100% sure). It just took a long time to load (about 5 minutes). When gameinfo.txt comes up, can you move the mouse or does it seem like its loading?

 

[Tyguy]

no, it wont load, it says error

 

[CriYam]

ignore the gameinfo.txt completely, and dont start from steam, double click the shortcut you made on your desktop

 

[Tyguy]

it says that when i click the shortcut....i type -game jbmod -console in target, and click on the icon, and that comes up....and clicking it in the list jsut starts hl2 but wont let me load or start a new game

 

[Tyguy]

its in steamapps/sourcemods, is that right?

Delete your current half-life 2 icon on your deskop...then place the jbmod folder where hl2.exe is located.

Then right click on your steam icon in the taskbar and choose Play Games. Then right click on Half-Life 2 and press "create deskop shortcut"

Now right click on the new icon on your deskop and press properties. Then after \Steam.exe -applaunch 220 you add: -game jbmod -console

So it will look like this without quotes"":

\Steam.exe -applaunch 220 -game jbmod -console

When you reach the main menu, your settings will be default and you don't have any savegames, now, in the console, write:

map buildingblocks_final, and the game will load, have patience
'cause it might take awhile

mine worked after i played around a bit. i managed to get the hang of it and now i was wondering if there were guides to it, or tutorials. i built a plane with 2 exploding things on the end, and i was wondering how to trigger them both at once. any help? i know there are the ent_ commands but i dunno what they are

 

[Tyguy]

this sucks, i got it to load, but it wont load the map i type......map buildingblocks_final....and it says it cant find it

 

[Spiffe]

skip the shortcut crap..... it's stupid.
Just extract the files into ...\steam-apps\sourcemods\

Then it's under 3rd party games in the steam gamemenu.

And btw after u started jbmod you cannot start new game or load a chapter. You have to type map in console.
If you load a map where the physgun is not in. You gotta type "give weapon_physgun" in console to get it.


and if you cant find the map. then u havent placed it in the right folder.
....\steam-apps\youre@mail\half-life 2\hl2\maps\.

 

[Tyguy]

all i want to do is load the map that has the grass and objects around it.....like all the videos i have seen.....what is that map called and does it come with jbmod? cause when i get in the game, i dont know what to load

Yeah. Then download the map. (I assume that you already have done that)

Then extract in in this folder (something like this): "c:\steam\steam-apps\yourmail\half-life 2\hl2\maps\"

Then start jbmod. Type map in the console then press space and the maps will appear as you press downarrow. then just start buildingblocks.

 

[Tyguy]

haha, no i have not.....where do i get the map? lol...thanks
