We need a HL2 prop_phys map ^_^

I was having fun building a fortress in the hl2mp map, but it just lacks props... I'd love to see a map like that, but this time with a lot more props.. more barrels but also pellets n stuff so you can actually build your own fortresses...

all the phys items that are in that map are used in that one tiny fortress

Also, I don't know exactly how things work with stuff that isn't onscreen isn't being drawn or whatever, but is it a good idea to stuff all the phys stuff in a different area (aside from the arena), but in some kind of cart or moving platform or whatever so that if you'd press a button, say 10 barrels are transported into the main area?

or even better, would it be possible to spaw_n barrels with the press of a button? that would really be awesome ^_^

If noone is up for it, I might try myself (even though I never really worked with hammer), but I would still like those questions answered. :dork:

(PS, I wrote spaw_n on purpose, because it became an ad. boo!)

...how'd you even make an HL2 map instead of a CS: S map? I always test my maps in CS

1. edit hammer to map for HL2. search the forums. 2. make your map. 3. include at least 1 start point in your map. 4. compile and send the .bsp to the HL2/maps folder. 5. then setup a MP server (you can search for that too)

What an amazing use of textures. There's just so many.... Your map looks so bright and vibrant.

But neato on making maps in HL2 already :thumbs:

Lol, that's awesome.

Let's say I'm making a map, I want 3 combine soldiers to spawm in this little room over here. Is that possible without the full sdk?

I hope that is a retorical question...

if not... yes of course you can! you'd have to place nodes though if you want enemies to follow you trough buildings and stuff.
