Re: [Csgo_sdk] Vertex lighting after Canals
Entity info_lighting is no way obsolete.

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Steam screenshots not capturing 1 to 1
It's been the same for months now for everyone. For some reason, screenshots created ingame or with steam ingame screeshotter appear darker than before.

So basically workaround is to take screenshots in tga and re-save as jpeg on your machine. -ics Michael Mayea kirjoitti: I realise all my screenshots are very dark, darker than in the game.

Re: [Csgo_sdk] nav_generate crashing
If you have an existing nav, and then you update the map, creating new
area for it, you can do mark_nav_walkable on the new area and then run
nav_generate_incremental (default is 2000 hammer units i think so it
generates nav for that long distance only). If you would do nav_generate
instead of it, it might overwrite the existing nav completely.
But anyway, before you run nav_generate, put on developer 2 in console
and see if it pulls out any errors. Also if i were you, i would compile
the map brushwork only without any props and details and such, see if
that works. Then add in props and do compile again and new nav_generate.
Add more stuff in untill you find the issue.

I have used nav_mark_walkable, but I only place a single one.

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Hammer Editor Selecting is delayed and slow
Try pressing 1 to decrease hammer camera window draw distance and also zoom in the top, left and side views. Press 2 to increase camera draw distance. If you use tool brushes, you can also tick off everything else and make their faces bigger. For example, tick off everything but the skybox brush. Select them all, take the texture browser open and change the texture scale X and Y to 2. Do the same for clip, playerclip, hint, skip, areaportal brushes. It will decrease the lag. You can also toggle off the things you don't need to see at the same time. Do you have AMD card by chance? There's been reports that Hammer lags more with AMD card (i have one, so i'm used to it lagging time to time). I haven't tried on nvidia card. -ics Michael Mayea kirjoitti: Thanks for the reply, I know you're correct from experience!

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Workshop maps with Vscripts
Just wanting to point this out, in L4D2, vscripts where in l4d/vscripts but in CSGO, valve seems to have placed them under csgo/scripts/vscripts so maybe they do work but are not supposed to execute from the old location, but the new one.

He's referring to the 25% cut mentioned here
http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/about/?appid=730 that applies to
items. In CSGO, all pass sales will go directly to mappers, or they
atleast used to during first operation.
However, i'm not in this for money myself, i would just like to have an
equal chance to have a map looked at like everyone else. Sadly they seem
to be looking and picking up maps from the people they know of mostly.
This does not apply only to CSGO but to TF2 aswell. Same people who
create items and maps have higher chance to get back in touch witl Valve
most likely than everyone else.

If you look back at the various operations it's the same few
names over and over again. (Tanuki, 3Dnj, FMPONE, Volcano,
Rick etc..) Unless you're already on their radar (or
recommended by someone who is) I doubt you'll get noticed.
There are simply too many maps for them to test them all :(

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Valve, it would have been nice to know.
Well it's mostly luck if you get enough views, subs and ratings on the workshop to reach into the top few pages of most popular maps, ever. There is that first week, which currently decides if your map goes there or not. Key is to have enough ready and promoted map to get to the place where your map is shown in the "most popular this week list", in the first spot right after it's first release, so it shows in steam client where players start their game which use the detail view of the game. If you don't go there, the chances are that nobody really sees your map after the first week has passed. After that, your map needs to have twice more votes each day than recently submitted, so you would stick on a top of the most popular this week list. This sadly is the criteria where valve will pick the maps. I seriously doubt they will pick a map submitted 6 months ago with 3000 vies when the most popular operation ones were at 15000-3 when they got picked up. I'll give an example, with diagrams. Everyone loves those, especially with powerpoint slides. My first submission, 91 days in workshop, reached the most popular this week list #1 place in the first week. http://server2.pelipurkki.fi/~dustin/csgo/map_1.jpg (now 16133 views 7013 subscribers, 567 positive ratings) My second submission, 19 days un workshop, did not reach most popular this week #1 place, though was on #2 and not displayed in steam client. http://server2.pelipurkki.fi/~dustin/csgo/map_2.jpg (now 1768 views 1919 subscribers and 125 positive ratings) So if you sum that up, the first map has been on very low attention since and to my surprise, servers have adopted the second map and run it, and people subscribe by downloading it that way. However they never see the map on workshop, unless they press esc ingame and rate it, which rarely happens. Cold fact is, no one pretty much never see these maps, unless they dig in quite deep in the workshop. Same applies to very large chunk of the submitted maps. To fix this, I have suggested mapping contest, weekly map introduction to cs blog and how to make workshop better but i haven't heard anything back. Some of my thoughts were actually viable, such as writing reviews on maps that would show on the "stream" to all to your friends (clicking your name on steam client). Random map/item choice browsing for workshop, that would give a random map from set criteria (de_, cs_ or last month, lifetime, wild choice, etc). -ics Nick Haruk kirjoitti: > If you do the math, this kind of behaviour doesn't encourage people to do levels, except the few people that have their work in already. The first time I saw the little announcement to vote on maps for the next operation, and it was full of previous operation maps, I thought "huh, there must not have been enough good maps lately." I don't know how common that thought was in others. I didn't check the workshop afterward to see if that was the case. Heck, it may go so far as to discourage players from voting on new content, by implicitly suggesting there isn't anything worthy.

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Valve, it would have been nice to know.
Don't be too hard on yourself. I'd like to point that if you aim to please Valve, you aren't on the right track. What you should do is try to please the players and server admins that might play or run your map. Doing the best you can, spreading information about it and responding to feedback is the best thing you can do. Then if users and admins like your map, they will run it, play it and Valve might pick it up for operation. However, what comes to workshop submissions, it's mere luck if your map get s a lot of views or not as in users attention. First week is critical. If your map hits spot 1 on most popular this week, the folks will see it on Steam on the CSGO page when they go and start the game, if they use the game details view. That brings a lot of views and subscriptions and ratings. For example, the first map i submitted to CSGO workshop got over 14000 views, 550 ratings in the first week and it got to that spot. The second map that i submitted about 2 weeks ago (which i think is even better than the one before), never got that attention and views got left under 1800 views and 128 ratings right now. This is actually a bad flaw in workshop, as it favors mostly luck and what gets released at the same time as your map does. But seriously speaking, don't aim to please Valve. That will never work. Just do the best you can and you might get lucky. Valve could arrange a map contest, for new maps only. Give time like 6 months to produce work. It would bring up attention nicely and equally to everyone. -ics Michael Mayea kirjoitti: It's not bad at all, but the lack of information is inconvenient. What is the deadline?

Re: [Csgo_sdk] de_callie
Thanks a lot! It was really interesting to see someone playing it live
and commenting things. Some of the things that you noticed, i will take
care of like the low res door that Niels also mentioned. All models were
also stock ones that i used, the fishing net originally appeared in
L4D2. Btw that BOT Chet really pwned you :P
Thanks again, stuff like this really helps.

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Question about map decompiling
I don't want to excract anything, all i want is to see certain prop and texture names from the vmf's so i can use them more easily or simply pick the texture or model from decompiled map with hammer and use that directly. Only textures and models that are within the game already, default maps. It makes working with mapping easier as i see some model within a game that suits my needs and i can just pick it up from vmf without searching and wasting time to it. Also i could just copy a model that is already in the game from maps rather than search and search through the system. Bspsource did the trick, thanks. -ics Skibur kirjoitti: To extract texture and models from the game file, you would need to use GFCScape, Simply find the VPK files, and open the one that has the “_dir” at the end. Decompiling a map will not extract the models and texture from VMF, they are merely used as a entity, a point information on how to instantiate the objects from the files. *From:*csgo_sdk-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:csgo_sdk-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] *On Behalf Of *Joseph Domenici *Sent:* Wednesday, January 15, 2014 12:14 AM *To:* csgo_sdk@list.valvesoftware.com *Subject:* Re: [Csgo_sdk] Question about map decompiling Check out BSPSource <https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/BSPSource>.

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Tree physics go nuts
Actually i didn't have env_wind in my map at all because i remember someone saying it doesn't seem to have any effect on csgo. Now that i remember more, it didn't have any effect on keyframe_rope or move_ropes. So that could explain it. However, i changed the treemodel already to another and it acts normal even after militia change. Weird. Though there is atleast 1 blue garbage container that keeps moving by itself unusually long time if someone bumps at it. Rest of the movable objects also have more power than usually. I'll add env_wind and see if it makes a difference. Thanks for the hint. -ics Nick Haruk kirjoitti: That's an env_wind with really high gust speeds, probably. Do you have one in your map? If not, it's probably using militia's env_wind settings on map load, or using default speeds if your map doesn't have an env_wind. The default settings of env_wind do pretty much what you see in the video. Lower values do a nice job of giving static trees that subtle rustling that <= 5 mph winds do irl.

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Multiple custom gamemodes
It's a lot more easier to do a map per gamemode than fit all gamemodes in one map. I've done a lot of mapping, in games that use single bsp for separate gamemodes (CSS, TF2) and games that use more than one gamemodes per map (L4D2) and for server admins and users, it's a better off with single gamemode per bsp. Trust me. -ics Michael Mayea kirjoitti: A little short sighted of Valve if you ask me.

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Workshop TOS
I've reported many things in L4D2 workshop and Valve has removed the ones violating rights or other game content. However, they are slow doing so. Propably not a high priority. -ics Michael Mayea kirjoitti: Are there any plans to release a set of rules regarding the workshop? What if someone uploads a map with assets from another commercial game for example, how do you report and have it removed? How can you protect your own content from being reuploaded?

[Csgo_sdk] Do not pack stringtable data into bsp on your maps
Hey, A warning for everyone who makes maps and is about to release or have already released their maps. Do not pack stringtable data into the bsp file, ever. It causes players not to be able to download the map from dedicated servers using sv_downloadurl (propably direct download from server too). So if you pack it in, players will not be able to get the map from server and your map is a dud release. We had a proof-of-concept on this yesterday with a friend when he released his map and it wouldn't download to players even though everything else ok. Stringtable data was the cause packed into the bsp. So keep that in mind. Also i wouldn't share stringtable data at all with the release due to this issue. It seems to be unneeded. -ics ___ Csgo_sdk mailing list Csgo_sdk@list.valvesoftware.com https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_sdk
Re: [Csgo_sdk] [request/question]Randomize spawn on custom maps
No workaround. Spawns cannot be controlled within maps. Perhaps with mods. -ics 31.8.2012 19:06, FX BTR kirjoitti: Hi, Can you tell us if you plan on randomizing spawn on custom map or if we have to do it by ourselves ? Many maps without random spawn are already shared... Here is an example : http://gamebanana.com/csgo/maps/168230 aim_map with 36 spawn points : once on a server, 1v1 game, players will spawn at the exact same place 90% of the time. It simply ruins the gameplay on the popular aim_ or awp_ type of maps. There is a workaround with the SDK if you teleport players right after spawning but it's kind of dumb and not the way it should work and not the way it works on previous games (except DoD:S afaik).

Re: [Csgo_sdk] Half-Life 2 Models?
L4D1/2 had models from CS Source enhanced and reworked to fit the game better. After all, the original L4D was built on CS Source branch of the Source engine. CS:GO uses plenty of models and textures from L4D2 also and it is built on L4D2 branch of the engine so it's coming back to it's roots. Valves way is using only what is needed and not dragging all the HL2 content payload along with every game they make. They just use what they need and redo/enhance/etc what they need to make look different or create something new to their needs. Much more time saving than doing everything all over again. -ics 23.5.2012 21:56, Shane S kirjoitti: I'm not too familar with the vpk system since i havent mapped for L4D, but I still thought the L4D games had the Half-Life models as well. Could be wrong. Anyway, I'm just worried that if I move the models over myself and have to pack them into the map, if they are not added eventually, the map would have a much bigger file size. Also, I'll try and see if using filepaths will work. Thanks for all the info, and if anyone knows anything else or has other ideas, please let me know!
