Hey guys,
Does anyone know of some way to group multiple entities so that they all
receive damage as if they were one? We have some rather large structures in
our mod, and it's becoming problematic to have these all under a single

Hey,
We have a weird crash in Eternal Silence. It seems to be caused by
some kind of rendering bug. We're running off the Episode 1 engine and
I've gotten dozens of mdmp files. All of them land in engine code. I
was wondering if anyone at Valve could help demystify these so I can
track down the pr
ine to know what is causing it.

I've tried doing this, and while it works fine for the game collision
code, the VPhysicsShadows that follow the player around still seem to
register collisions. Does anyone have a fix on this? I've tried
setting the CONTENTS_TEAM content types to the physics objects using
SetContents, but it doesn'

I built a bullet_manager system similar to the one featured on the SDK

It is currently using a temp ent to send the bullets to all clients

Rather than take the origin on the player in screenspace (that ends up

GetRenderBounds() can do this. Then its a matter or transforming to
