Spawn any medics as well?
 
did anyone ever use the 'ENT MOD' for hl1? it used practically the EXACT commands as these (ent_setname etc) and enabled you to make any entity you wanted and move it around and edited it game, it also came with a star trek style hand gun that was like a traction beam (to move entitities around) - this basically meant you could create a whole map while actually in-game.

do you think valve collaborated with the people who made this mod, because it seems to be exactly the same. ill try and dig up some old commands i used, maybe they will be similar in hl2, may solve a few problems people are having.

anyway, nice to see this is incorporated in hl2 and we dont have to mod it anymore :)
 
for the people who cant figure out medics...

ent_fire <entname> setmedicon

hard stuff, really...
 
I'm having some trouble spawning striders. Each time I try, even if i'm nocliping, they alwayse end up under ground. A little help?

Instead of using npc_create use give. So if you typed: give npc_strider it would spawn on the floor instead of inside it.
 
Is there a way to rename an npc?

When I do

bind "t" "npc_create_equipment weapon_smg1;wait; npc_create npc_citizen;wait; ent_fire npc_citizen setmedicon"

all of the citizens turn into medics...

I'm thinking that perhaps I could name the citizent that I want to be as medic something else, that way I will only have a limited number of medics.

Thanks
 
intersting

i think u just have to make the citizens as normal then use the ent_fire command to turn certain ones into medics, it may take longer but its the only way i know :thumbs:

How to use het hold of the blue gravity earlier? I have loaded a citadel map with it, chnged level to trainstation, G-man held his speech, but then the weapon wasn't there.
 
Hey thanks alot for your help! It's allowed me to make some discoveries of my own!
Check it out!
(I think that this is a pretty relevant side-topic)
 
you have to use impulse 101 to get it.. (with sv_cheats 1)

Changelvl from the citadel only turns the normal physgun into the super one. so if you don't have the normal one, you don't have the super one. so, do as you normally would do to get the normal one. and youll end up with the super one. instead of the normal one. :cheese:

Thanks Monkey!

Did someone say that they were able to spawn monsters in hl2dm? Atomi could you explain how you did this?

If so, how did you do it? I can't even get to the consol and it won't work when I put the commands into the cfg

I've been trying to place boxes...

I believe the name for the box is item_item_crate... I've tried the give command (which results in a big red ERROR sign), and typing npc_spawn item_item_crate crashes the game.
 
after visiting my local airport and standing through the orwellian security checkpoint, i was inspired to make this scene with the super-happy NPC spawning guide as my helper.

if you haven't noticed, our good friend is in there hiding.
 
I figured out how to spawn monsters in HL2DM.

copy all of the folders of the steamapps/accountname/halflife2/hl2

and paste it into the half-life 2 deathmatch/hl2mp

use your normal npc_create keys as normal. You can also access the consol now. put sv_cheats 1 and voila

a few problems tho... No ai= they stand still
all of them die in one shot

anyone know how to give the monsters ai?

bind "b" "npc_create_equipment weapon_ar2;wait; npc_create npc_citizen"
bind "n" "npc_create_equipment weapon_rpg;wait; npc_create npc_citizen"

bind "p" "npc_create_equipment weapon_annabelle; wait; npc_create npc_citizen"
bind "r" "npc_create_equipment weapon_alyxgun; wait; npc_create npc_citizen"

So theres no way of creating a medic class citizen?
 
for a second i though that said "sexexpressionoverdrive"
that would be intresting
 
If you want to spawn NPC's in HL2DM, I don't think you even need to copy those folders, because I was in a server an hour ago with cheats on, and I tried out the npc_create command and it worked! Then everyone started doing it, and then one guy came in, and he knew how to give them AI, he didn't explain it good but I think you have to name them first with ent_setname, and then uhm, something else...

npc_create [npc name]; wait; ent_setname heal; wait; ent_fire heal sethealth [number]

That didnt work for me. They still die instantly.
 
Hey when I summon an Alyx npc, she protects me from anything bad, but she doesnt follow me around, just stays in one spot. How can I make her follow me around?
 
sorry mate, i guess the people specialisted in this area aint around atm. Pick a better time tmrw to make a thread on this, or rather than the middle of the night. You might even get lucky now with the odd person knowing. Im off to bed, night.

btw normal citizens/rebell fighters will follow you, and they are just as good with weapons :)
 
For fun in HLDM..

load overwatch..

sk_antlion_health 500
sk_antlion_damage 50
npc_create npc_antlion
ent_setname bob
ent_fire bob setrelationship "player D_HT 90"

..me and my friend spawned about 30 antlions and tried to hold them off from the main building.. was like an alien invasion, not to mention them being super strong and had 500 health.. it only crashes when you use that energy ball thing, other than that it was flawless fun
 
ok, I still cannot figure out how to give citizens more health, can anyone help me?
