Yes, the player spawn points, if you place them in line with the ground
in counter-strike source, will cause the player to spawn outside the
map. Mappers can fix this by placing the spawn point above the ground. I
wouldn't suggest changing the code, just because, if it ain't broke,
don't fix it, an
For a mod I'm working on, I'd like to be able to use
Counter-Strike:Source and Half-Life 2 content in it. Do I need to
reference both steamAppIds, or just CS:S (cause it gets HL2 content
automagically)? And if so, what's the syntax?

I'm having a problem trying to figure out the npc_citizen entity.
I'd like it to be assigned the resistance body model from later in HL2,
but I can't find any difference in the SDK's example maps between the
npc_citizen entitys from d1 to d3.
It's defaulting to the refugee body model for me. I'm r
Realistically, you should never need more than that many verts in a map.
If you have that many vertices in a map, it's time to consider changing
some of your brush geometry into model geometry. That's a good place to
start optimizing.

Oddly, it's not in a rez.
What you have is a set of files in the config directory, named
"chapter1.cfg", "chapter2.cfg" and so on. Those contain the name of the
map file to run to begin that chapter. You've also got some VTFs in the
\materials\VGUI\Chapters\ folder, named "chapter1.vtf" and so for
You could also do it the cool way, and do it with a full screen shader,
where it puts a guassian blur and then a multiply blend, so it glows.
They did a little something like this for Tron 2.0. There's a good
article on it over at gamasutra, search for Tron 2.0 and glow.

So that Steam update just broke my mod, and I know I'm not the only one,
several others concurred.
It's giving a "Can't find [modname]/gameinfo.txt" error when the mod is run.

I have to ask... are you taking into account the fact that bullets go
through walls, and through your cover? The AWP can shoot 44 units
through a solid wall. There's a good article in the wiki that lists all
the weapons' penetration capabilities.

This would be slightly hackish, but you could set a logic_auto in the
map, and onBackgroundMap change r_drawviewmodel to 0 and cl_drawhud to 0
using point_clientcommand. This would hide the player. You could also
teleport the player model and just load up a viewcontrol to look from a
camera.

That's exactly why. It'd be a *huge* security hole if they opened the

I think they wouldnt do that because t
VRAD is likely crashing because of a malformed light patch resolution;
like, texture select all the faces in the map, and reassign the lightmap
scale to something like 16 or 32.
This seems to fix it in all cases I've encountered.

I have to be honest; I really don't like this approach. I ran into it in
internal alpha versioning, and the problem is that it breaks all the
text tokens, because they all append the modname on the front of the
token. This is a pain cause you have to do a find/replace on the modname

I think we need a "General Problems" list that we can discuss things
