Re: [hlcoders] poorer prediction with new SDK?
Closest I see is player_showpredictedposition, but it doesn't seem to visually change anything at all.

-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Thanks for that both of you, here's me, the real newbie thinking that HL 1 was written in C (god!). I'll get the Vis C++ soon and I already have VHE, I've been mapping for quite a while and I won't be worrying about mapping. Thanks for the website, that'll be my port of calling for the next couple of days or so. -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

Re: [hlcoders] Making Half-Life 1 MOD, need help
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I remember that i used Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 for HL1 coding. The SDK compiles right away without any tweaking. Also, if you only know C, u might wanna read some tutorials on C++, HL1 is written in C++, so the code is heavily Object Oriented. Also, if you are planning to do some level design dowload Hammer Editor (previously called Worldcraft) On 9/21/06, Douglas Temple <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > -- > [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > Hello all, > > Yeah yeah I'm making a mod for HL1, please don't kill me or try to tell me > to switch to Source.

[hlcoders] Making Half-Life 1 MOD, need help
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hello all, Yeah yeah I'm making a mod for HL1, please don't kill me or try to tell me to switch to Source. It's for a competition that I'm entering and I just want it to be a simple mod that probably won't win me the competition but it will at least be a learning experience for me. All I need is some tutorials on HL 1 SDK, I know a bit about C, but what's the best compiler to use, and is there anything else I need to make something that is extremely simple and quick to put together as the deadline for submission is in November. Thanks in advance to everyone, Your friendly neighbourhood coder newbie, Duggles -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
Re: [hlcoders] poorer prediction with new SDK?
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Check that the lag compensation system is still being used to move entities when a player is shooting, IIRC you can use sv_showlagcompensation 1 or something similar to show some hitboxes when a player is being lag compensated (ie, you have to be shooting at him and lag compensation has to be turned on, etc.) I remember the lagcompensation->StartLagCompensation was missing in the player command code on the server side with regard to the lag compensation system when I first merged with the new SDK. Sorry I can't be more specific, I'm at work and don't have access to the SDK right now.
