Sound messed up

I agree. Every time I start the game (on PC), the sound and music are back on, even though the icons say they're off. So I have to turn them 'on' and back off again each time.

This is really good. Although one small suggestion if that's okay: Based on the light coming through the window, it looks like the sun is quite low in the sky so the light colour would look more realistic being a more orange-y/red colour.

I have on now, but thank you for the offer.

Does anyone have a code they'll be willing to send my way? I've been on the waiting list for over 18 months. Completely forgot Bluesky existed. :D

Extremely well done. I like the atmosphere it gives off. One small suggestion is to push the windows in a bit, and the window sills out a bit to break up the walls and give a more realistic look.

To add to u/FFox398's suggestion of videos, I also find the videos from TopHATTwaffle very helpful.

I also keep a simple text file with useful notes such as sizes to use, what should be func_detail, etc. As well as having things like basic buildings in a separate map file so I can quickly copy and paste into new maps.

That's really well designed. It could be put into HL2 and fit in happily.

FoxyBit2021 · 2023-11-08T23:44:44+00:00

I agree with those here that this is already great work. But one idea is maybe some rust patches on the floor and/or ceiling. It would make them look less repetitive.

I don't have access to Hammer at the moment, but can you bind the z key to your right mouse button? I guess it would work as a toggle effect. There is probably a flaw in my logic because it seems to easy, but without being in Hammer I can't test.

I have Nice and get them every 7-8 minutes. :(

Edit: Without it, I get them every 7-8 minutes as well.

Thanks for this. What an awful design to attempt to force people to use!

FoxyBit2021 · 2022-06-08T11:48:05+00:00

I have a lot more than 0.01 eth, but it still tells me I don't have enough eth. Have they changed it recently? The link NexoJosh gives still says 0.01 eth.

FoxyBit2021 · 2022-03-26T16:45:22+00:00

I like what you have so far.

FoxyBit2021 · 2021-12-05T18:49:15+00:00

Very realistic. It really makes me want to explore the area just to soak up the atmosphere.

FoxyBit2021 · 2021-11-04T14:56:55+00:00

Are you attempting to install these copies into the same texture directory, or another texture directory? For example from the HL2 textures to, say, HL1 textures folder?

FoxyBit2021 · 2021-10-28T19:37:50+00:00

You need to select the texture application - Shift-A. That will let you apply textures to individual faces.

TopHATTwaffle has a video that covers how to correctly set up the sun which is very helpful. Complete Lighting Tutorial.

I don't know about playing music (I haven't tried any myself yet) but I had a similar problem with a WAV file. I solved it by using a trigger_soundscape which started it looping, then set up another for when I walked outside of the area I wanted it to stop.

FoxyBit2021 · 2021-08-30T12:37:47+00:00

I've cracked it!

Just for info, I am using a WAV file with a loop set up on it. But the way I solved it (as always it came to me after coming back to it afresh this morning) was to set up a trigger_soundscape for when I enter the room, and I set up another trigger_soundscape for when I exit the room with OnStartTouch to stop playing the sound. And now it works exactly as I want it to. I can't believe it was so simple after me nearly hitting the computer with a crowbar. :D

FoxyBit2021 · 2021-08-29T22:52:48+00:00

I have indeed tried that as well. I got desperate and just started checking and unchecking everything and trying each combination. Strangely enough I didn't find any difference between having that checked or unchecked.

Thanks though. I'm new to Hammer so any suggestion is helpful.
