I have a problem. I searched all over the net without result:(
There is no specific elevator entity in [[HL1]] or [[HL2]]. Elevators must be constructed from several entities.
When u open hammer u got 4 screens. 1 in 3D and 3 in 2D. First it was normal but now it looks like this.[[http://users.telenet.be/downloadarea/hammer.jpg]] plz help

{{note|In multiplayer [[Source]] games, any vertically-moving platform will seem jerky to anyone riding it. (This is due to the network player physics designed to save on resources.) This can make elevators look very bad, so test the effect before building a complete elevator in a Deathmatch level. Always test your Elevators/Lifts with <code>Developer 1</code> enabled.}}
thx
