"What is it you wish for, mah boi" said Santa, in a jolly fashion.
The boy yelled, with a smile on his face, "I want HypernovA!!!"
That inspired me deeply. Yeah, I'm just making this up. But what would YOU want this new year? What are your resolutions and hopes.
Here are ours:
JANUARY:
Finish Security Force, start on the scientists, and Update the the look of HypernovA.
FEBUARY:
Work alot with the code, finish the scientists.
MARCH:
More Coding, do lots of mapping, and start on the HECU units
APRIL:
Finish HECU units, more coding and lots of mapping
MAY:
Continue mapping, work on more alien species, and work on more code
And altogether, finish the whole mod by the end on the year.
I've worked out what chapters I'll do:
- "Big Day Today" - Eli leaves to work, and starts on THE expirement.
- "What are they?" - The resonance cascade has happened. Aliens have been found. Walk through destroyed labs.
- "Call them in" - You go through administration, and find Breen, calling in the HECU forces. Of course you don't know, and just leave Breen alone. In the middle of the chapter, you find the HECU units fighting
- The Surface - You reach the surface, and reach Alyx. From now on, you need to protect Alyx, or Alyx might have a "Nanny". Fighting the HECU units, and trying to reach the Old Black Mesa complex.
- Revisited - You're in Old Black Mesa. It's all dusty, broken, and problematic. This is a shelter for aliens
- It - Fight an alien boss. The whole time, Kleiner is taking care of Alyx, meanwhile.
- "To the skies" - The BlackOps enter Black Mesa, calling several airstrikes. From now on, some HECU might be your allies, including Shepard.
- Underground - You reunite with Kleiner and Alyx. Kleiner leaves, and you're left tackling the rail system with Barney and Alyx.
- Lambda - You'll have to protect an area while Gordon comes to you, and you'll help in to the next stage, the teleportation. Then you try to get out, but the portal grows, and blows up, taking you....somewhere.
- "Where am I?" - Alyx is missing, and the teleportation sequence has malfunctioned, teleporting you to Xen. You'll have to kill several bosses.
- HIM - Gordon killed the Nihilanth. You meet...HIM, and later reunite with Alyx and Kleiner. You lose your leg to a bullsquid and are CARRIED to the escape vehicle. You'll have to shoot while you're being carried, because there's a HUGE force of aliens stampeding at you.
Anyways,
And anything else from Half-Life 2...mainly for modelling reference. Problems:
BUT IF YOU WANT MORE, I NEED SOMEONE TO ANSWER SOME OF THESE QUESTIONS:
I'm trying to code a keypad, and I'm using an ALERT as an example. But it won't say the code. Here's my code:
// Keypad
//=========================================================
#include "extdll.h"
#include "util.h"
#include "cbase.h"
#include "monsters.h"
#include "schedule.h"
//=====================
// Monsters Class Definition
//=====================
class CModelKeypad : public CBaseMonster
{
public:
virtual void KeyValue( KeyValueData *pkvd );
void Spawn( void );
void Precache( void );
void DefaultTouch ( void );
int m_code;
int m_target;
};
LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS( item_keypad, CModelKeypad );
//=========================================================
// Spawn
//=========================================================
void CModelKeypad :: Spawn()
{
Precache( );
if (pev->model != NULL) {
SET_MODEL( ENT(pev), STRING(pev->model) );
}
else {
SET_MODEL(ENT(pev), "models/civ_stand.mdl");
}
ALERT(at_console, "CODE IS: %s \n", m_code);
pev->solid = SOLID_SLIDEBOX;
UTIL_SetSize(pev, VEC_HUMAN_HULL_MIN, VEC_HUMAN_HULL_MAX);
}
//=========================================================
// Precache - precaches all resources this monster needs
//=========================================================
void CModelKeypad :: Precache()
{
if (pev->model != NULL) {
PRECACHE_MODEL( (char *)STRING(pev->model) );
}
else {
PRECACHE_MODEL("models/civ_stand.mdl");
}
}
//=========================================================
// Define KeyValues ( Don't forget to use " virtual void KeyValue( KeyValueData *pkvd );" )
//=========================================================
void CModelKeypad::KeyValue( KeyValueData *pkvd )
{
if (FStrEq(pkvd->szKeyName, "code"))
{
m_code = ALLOC_STRING( pkvd->szValue );
pkvd->fHandled = TRUE;
}
else if (FStrEq(pkvd->szKeyName, "target"))
{
m_target = ALLOC_STRING( pkvd->szValue );
pkvd->fHandled = TRUE;
}
else
{
CBaseEntity::KeyValue( pkvd );
}
}
//=========================================================
// Touched by Player
//=========================================================
void CModelKeypad :: DefaultTouch()
{
ALERT( at_console, "TOUCHED!!! CODE IS: %s \n", m_code);
}
And here's my code for the FGD:
[
model(studio) : "Choose a replacement model" : "models/massn.mdl"
target(string) : "Activate this when keycode entered"
code(integer) : "KeyCode to activate (4 digits)" : 0000
]
In the console, it just says "CODE IS:" without the rest of the code!!! Where's my faulty code? I NEED HELP :(.
Thanks in Advance!
And thanks to SysOp for giving me some help!!
Another thing, VERY Important:
Agreed, it's only a few days, but it's become a child to some. It won't be released for a LONG time, but encourage us. MORALE! WE NEED MOAR!!!
HypernovA has come a LONG way in only 23 days.
Alot of people actually favor this mod over all others. Why don't you? VOTE for HypernovA!!!
happy new year dexter :D
To you too, Helly!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
To you too, Pinheirolliness...DON'T YOU HAVE A DIFFERENT NICKNAME!?!?!? :D
