Re: [hlcoders] Networked Entity Creation

-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] That might not work so well if you want some gravity (will be a pain to get the correct end position). I decided to just create some non-networked member vectors in the server side class for the entity and use them to store the velocity and posit

Re: [hlcoders] Networked Entity Creation

-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Ah ok yeah, I can appreciate that. I was thinking of doing a similar thing sometime for bullettime bullets (the client bullet would go slowly along a path at a fixed speed until the server says it's ended). To do that I was going to just make the

[hlcoders] Networked Entity Creation

-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I'm trying to create an entity that has a visual representation on the client separate from it's server counterpart, with the only networking occurring when the entity is created on the server side (like a temp ent) to keep bandwidth use down. So

RE: [hlcoders] Problems with latest hl2dm sdk update:

The quick and easy way to resolve this is to change the SteamAppId from 215 to 320 in your mods GameInfo.txt - while it will enforce the requirement of having HL2DM, I can't think of many ways of owning an HL2 game that doesn't include DM, it's also a bit easier than shipping a bunch of redundant t

[hlcoders] Physics props and players

-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Since I have merged the recent EP1 update with the mod I work on, all our mappers physics props have stopped colliding with players. I was wondering if something went wrong during the merge or this was disabled in the latest source? They still col
