Does anyone knows a good dawn skybox texture?

There you go tf2scammer.

[MrClean]

There are some additional game perimeters I wish to use for my map, but I'm not quite sure how to add them. What exactly would I need to type in to add the commands -staticproppolys, -textureshadows and -staticproplighting?

[[yournamehere]]

I want to put both the portal gun and the blue gravity gun (half-life series, not the sandbox physgun) in the same game, and in the same self-made map. Any ideas?

I think normal half-life 2 weapons and such were disabled in portal and portal 2 at some point

you'd have to make a sourcemod or use garrysmod.

[sakasakakun]

Can I use the env_gunfire in counter-strike source?

They were removed along with all Source base materials, models and sounds.

Could I add an episode 2 fgd? Does it even have one?

HL2 is what you're looking for, in the 2009/bin folder of the SDK as far as I know.

Why are all my doors doing this?



Basically they mostly open and close correctly, but if I press a door that is currently opening/closing, it starts rotating 360±90º.
I've tried putting doors without anything around it, moving its origin, creating new ones from scratch, but I can't figure this out.

However, I have seen this behaviour a few times recently in other maps, which makes me believe it's a new problem with GMod/Source and not the actual map?

It usually does this when you map for CSS, since your mapping for Gmod, its all linked.

[RedNinja]

How could i replace for example all models(models/props/de_inferno/ClayOven.mdl) in map to models/props/de_inferno/clock01.mdl? How could i do that?

Well, is it fixable and/or avoidable?

Open the .vmf in your favorite text editor and s/ClayOven/clock01/.

Thanks mate!

Open the .vmf in your favorite text editor and s/ClayOven/clock01/.

It may not be the ideal solution but if you set the open direction it should prevent this from happening.

[phantompain5]

Does anyone know if it is possible to allow hammer to save the .vmf in multiple directories at a time? I'd like to save my vmf file in dropbox, on my main drive, and my second drive.

[Firegod522]

It does not.

This may float your boat. Quick Google search of "save file in multiple directories" brought that up, but I'm sure if that doesn't work you can probably find something else. This seems like a generic problem someone should have ran into and decided to cover.

[vexx21322]

When I set an item_item_crate to spawn a npc, the npc comes out all crooked, even though the crate isn't. How can I fix this?

[H4wkeye]

How can I increase the size of the Visgroup window on the Hammer sidebar? I saw some guy has Visgroups quite long. As you can see, I'd like to stretch it all the way down, so I can see all my Visgroups clearly, I've got a bunch.

[Marbledemon]

Is there a way to make good-looking, dusty rooms?
I want to make an apartment, already abandoned for many years, sunlight shining thorugh the windows.
I already added func_dustmotes, but func_dustcloud looks way to ugly.
Is there another "dust-like" effect I could use?

Unfortunately the door is still rotating like crazy. If I set it to only open forwards, it will still rotate 360º backwards (as it only bug-rotates in one direction for some reason).

First drag and drop the Visgroup window outside Hammer to make a new window, and resize it to whatever size you want:



Then drag it back:



Success!
Also I like doing this:

[H4wkeye]

That worked like a charm, thanks man! And yeah, that's a perfect setup you got, but, I'm missing an extra monitor :P Sold it away a while ago, was an oldish 19" LCD. I may buy an extra one at some point again, I'll see.

I it possible to make a sound move with an object? I want elevator music to play in an elevator i made, but I'm not sure how i make it move with the elevator. Anyone know how?

Thanks a lot. I'm going to test that out now.

EDIT: Awesome, it worked. Thanks!

Manipulate

So it would be something like:
Copy File $path\$file.vmf new\directory\$file.vmf

Of course this will only work when you compile your map.

You could also try messing with symlinks.

[Xenosaur]

I registered solely to post my problem, anyway, I have a problem compiling my map, and I can't seem to find out where it is, it has something to do with

nature/blendgrassgravel001a uses unknown detail object type coastline_redgrass02!

But it doesn't tell me where and why its a problem.

Compile log as followed (and ignore the WARNING: Too many light styles as they don't affect my map)

Anyone know how to make jump pad like in Quake 3/Live?

I registered solely to post my problem, anyway, I have a problem compiling my map, and I can't seem to find out where it is, it has something to do with

nature/blendgrassgravel001a uses unknown detail object type coastline_redgrass02!

But it doesn't tell me where and why its a problem.

Compile log as followed (and ignore the WARNING: Too many light styles as they don't affect my map)

Another thing you should do is fix the fact that there's more than 4(?) different colors of light on a brush somewhere

I forget how to turn off detail sprites though... maybe look up a tutorial on how to turn them on and then just work backwards

4 differently named lights touching the same brushface. It has nothing to do with colour, as you could have hundreds of lights named the same with different colours and it would work. It's only when you have too many that it'll complain.

Does anyone have some good tips for lighting?

I'm sort of asking the same thing. Here's a room I made. I like the color the light is giving off in the room, but it just doesn't "pop". It just feels like it's missing something, the way the light is cast makes everything look a bit stale to me. Would sprites for each fluorescent light fixture be beneficial (right?)? I know that isn't the full the solution though, it's the lighting itself. I know it's missing SOMETHING to make it a bit more atmospheric, but I just don't know what that could be. Any ideas?

That looks full-bright, just orange. It also does not match the light-texture in any way. What are you using for the lighting? Use light_spots + sprites.

I'm using a light_spot with a wide angle. Yeah, it looks pretty orange, and that's the problem. It looks to much of a uniform light, bland and stuff. Should I try reducing the angle and possibly the light a bit? Here's the brightness I'm using for them along with the angles... (And there's one light_spot in the middle of each of the florescent light fixtures)

Brightness: 200 190 181 200
Inner (Bright) Angle: 65
Outer (Fading) Angle: 90 (too much, right?)

[wauterboi]

Yeah, and either you switch the texture to match the color of your lighting now or you change your lighting to match your textures. Right now it looks very unrealistic.

What color would you suggest then? Would Blue be good because it's a contrast to Orange?

A very light yellow would be a better idea, to match the use of flourecent lights.
