'''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''.)

'''Sp00neyG:'''
Solo,
 
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!
That goes for everybody else who needs some help too ;)

I changed the list quite a bit, hope you don't mind. It's much easier to navigate now and has more information. --[[User:Tom Edwards|[[User:Tom Edwards|Tom Edwards]]]] 08:40, 28 Jun 2005 (PDT)

Isn't CGTalk a bit generic?

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

I have taken out some copyrighted texture material site out, we should keep it clean. and keep it alphabetical plz... jaboo224

Added mayang.com to the list they have a decent amount of general textures in high res. --[[User:KillahSin|KillahSin]]

''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]]
 
----
 
Stop adding hl1 mods....
 
----
 
:There is no reason why this can't be a useful place for Half-Life 1 support/information, the site will be what you all make of it. Personally, I would prefer that there is a clean visual distintion for a viewer when they are reading a page to know what platform they are reading about (or searching for).

== 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!
 
-Nox13last out yet monitoring-
 
== Just VALVE could create something like this ==

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'm I just missing this somewhere? ==
 
This probably is 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'
 
basically when you press 'new game' i would like levels to show up instead f a blank menu
