| '''Solo:''' I suggest that we make a more centralized table of contents per se... I'm currently scavaging around on the site finding random tidbits of information, but I still can't find what I'm looking for which happens to be how to create breakable glass in CS:S.

| Yeah, that sounds pretty good. This site is going to need a lot of cross referencing before it becomes useful. Oh, and [http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?ent=func_breakable Func_breakable] is what you're looking for, btw. This is the HL1 guide, but the entity has the same name in source.

| '''Solo:''' Good deal, thanks... I think this site would really benefit with a Forum. Well... I don't know how to get to Func_breakable. Is it a brush or an entity?

| '''[[User:Super Foul Egg|Super Foul Egg]]:''' From a technical standpoint, I recommend locking this page and changing the link to a differently named page if it's going to be converted into something else. Community portal (along with [[Current events]] and [[Help]]) is one of the main pages that wikibots target when they're spamming, so this page has the potential to be more work than it's worth over long periods. [http://www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia] is the origin of nearly all hacks and misuses when it comes to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediawiki Mediawiki] framework, so the more things that deviate from their way of doing things, the better protected this wiki will be from incidental harm.
| |
| | |
| (Well, assuming you discount the potential harm of a wiki let loose on the PC gaming community. Oh, ''god''.)
| |

| |
| '''[[User:SavannahLion|SavannahLion]]:''' I disagree Super Foul Egg. Redirecting and renaming links is only a stopgap measure for spambots. Once the spambot maintainer realizes a specific page is innaccessable, a new page would simply be found and abused. What happens then? Another rename and a new link? Forget it. There's a blacklist patch available for MediaWiki that's specifically targeted to stop/resist spambots. Applying the blacklist along with a variation of an autoban system, means a Spambot only manages to hit one page at best and only once. With careful and judicious additions to the Blacklist, the bots paid for by those advertisers are never able to hit twice. Hiding the blacklist to only admin and moderators prevents spammers from finding what's been blacklisted. I've been happy with the results on my own Wiki, I see no reason something similar can't be applied here if it isn't already.

| if your looking for breakable glass tutorials, or any other tutorial, be sure to visit http://www.hl2mapping.com, it contains tutorials, downloads and a community for mappers and modders alike!

| I have added the '''"Other pages section"''', the idea its to list other pages with lots of links. You see stickied forums post everywhere with interesting links, but you dont want to polute this pages with these linkes, and well... linking that sites its a good way to give him credits for that work. --Tei

| ''Should we include HL1 content?''
| |
| | |
| Or is this a strictly HL2/source SDK wiki?
| |
| | |
| :I see no reason not to include HL1 content. Since the VERC is is essentially not going to be added to anymore, this is the only "official" site for HL1 modding. --[[User:Geogriffith|Geogriffith]]

| == Help, My BSP ain't compiling! == | |
| | |
| I have made a better-standard "BreakWall" map on '''Hammer''' (for those of you who don't know what BreakWall is, you have to break through breakable walls to get elsewhere (like that game - Red Faction)). I have gone through it, and for some reason, I press the compile button, then OK, the compile logger comes up, then at the bottom it said
| |
| "Copy File
| |
| Command C:/MAP DIRECTORIES/Nox13last_Breakwalls.bsp"
| |
| | |
| But The BSP doesn't appear, and if the DONT RUN GAME IF CHECKED checkbox is unchecked, the game would load up, and simply take to the Main Menu.
| |
| | |
| I've asserted that the problem isn't too many entities, and it's not leaking thats the problem, so what is it, I need help bad please!

| == Just VALVE could create something like this == | |

| I´d like to thank Valve for this site... You are the best! Thanks for the game and thanks for provide us SDK with great quality and special attention!

| == Creating realtime cut scenes ==
| |
| | |
| I am animating a realtime cut scene for school entirely in Softimage xsi and was wondering how I would go about getting it into HL2. I would do all of the environments,cameras and animations in xsi but the special fx in hammer. Can someone point me in the right direction.
| |
| | |
| Oh and I was also wondering for env fire how to use a color or alpha input?

| == Hammer Crashing ==
| |
| | |
| Hiyaz,
| |
| everytime i try to browse thru entitys it crash's
| |
| i insert object, right click propertys, world model, browse
| |
| when i click browse it crash's
| |
| please any ideas would be greatly accepted>>>
| |
| Thanks

| == Translating Tutorials into German language ==
| |
| | |
| Hi everybody,
| |
| i'd like to translate the Tutorials into the german language. Therefore i want to create new Articles. What do you think about it?
| |
| | |
| :I like the idea, and I've been talking with [[User:GregCoomer|Greg]] about adding translations. I created [[Translations]] page to discuss about it in details. --[[User:RumikoHoshino|RumikoHoshino]]
| |
| | |
| == am I just missing this somewhere? == | |
| | |
| This probably is'nt the best page to ask it, but im trying to make a short single player campaign, and cant find anywhere how to set up the level progression. when i run the mod game, the console says something about 'maplist.txt' (which, i might add it informs me it cannot locate)
| |
| | |
| basically when you press 'new game' i would like levels to show up instead of a blank menu
| |
| | |
| if this really wasnt the place to ask, directing me to a better page will be just as apreciated :)
| |
| | |
| == Hammer Idea ==
| |
| Is it just me, or does having a tool in hammer to convert brushes into a model seem like a good idea? Considering how most objects in HL1 which were brush based (chairs, racks) are now models, it would help all those experienced HL1 mappers who don't have modelling skills.

| | |
| == Flawed math? ==
| |
| Does the Programming section really need a link and overly long description to a debate on controversial math? --[[User:Mark WiseCarver|wisemx]] 04:35, 20 Sep 2005 (PDT)
| |
| | |
| : Are you referring to the link I posted [http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/09/17/1313249&from=rss Trigonometry Redefined without Sines And Cosines]. I put that link there because it is always good to know of alternative ways to do math/programming, and it may help spread the word about this new way of doing trig. --[[User:Createdbyx|Created by: X]] 10:00, 20 Sep 2005 (PDT)
| |
| | |
| :Yes, it doesn't even link to an article, just debates and ads for the book. --[[User:Mark WiseCarver|wisemx]] 13:19, 20 Sep 2005 (PDT)
| |
| | |
| :The link (and even the sample chapter) doesn't provide enough information to be useful to, say, a mapper messing with the vertex tool. All the link is accomplishing is advertising the book. On the other hand, a link to a website that teaches (very) basic trig might occasionally be useful to a few people. But rarely, I expect. —'''[[User:Maven|Maven]]''' <sup>([[User talk:Maven|talk]])</sup> 16:32, 20 Sep 2005 (PDT)

| :Agreed --[[User:Mark WiseCarver|wisemx]] 17:20, 20 Sep 2005 (PDT)

| == Mod pages == | |
| | |
| Is there a VALVe policy or community consensus about how much and what kinds of information should be present on this wiki about mods? Certainly some sort of guidelines would be useful in disputes such as [[Talk:Territory Weapons|this one]]. I'm concerned that, without something to point to, this wiki will eventually become a free auxiliary website for ill-considered mods in the I-just-need-a-coder-and-a-modeler stage. —'''[[User:Maven|Maven]]''' <sup>([[User talk:Maven|talk]])</sup> 16:58, 3 Oct 2005 (PDT)
| |
| | |
| :Can we at least agree on a policy of "no more than one page per mod"? —'''[[User:Maven|Maven]]''' <sup>([[User talk:Maven|talk]])</sup> 20:52, 5 Oct 2005 (PDT)
| |
| | |
| == "Availability" section in entities == | |
| | |
| Please take a look at the [[npc_crow#Availability|Availability section]] in [[npc_crow]]. That's with code:
| |
| <pre>
| |
| ==Availability==
| |
| {{in game|point}} {{game|HL2}}, {{game|HL2DM}}
| |
| {{in fgd}} {{fgd|halflife2}}
| |
| {{in code|class=CNPC_Crow|file=npc_crow.cpp}}
| |
| </pre>
| |
| The idea is to mention:
| |
| *what games an entity is in;
| |
| *whether it's a base.fgd entity or defined in other fgds (potentially useful for people making total conversions); and,
| |
| *where to find it in the code.
| |
| Any objections/comments/changes? —'''[[User:Maven|Maven]]''' <sup>([[User talk:Maven|talk]])</sup> 11:01, 6 Oct 2005 (PDT)
