Various issues Thread - Counter-Life mod for Half-Life

By evan_bohn:
1. nihilanth get stuck. i killed him and he just hovered in the air, shooting off sparks and lights and not doing anything else.

Haunter: It works for me. He died and the G-Man appeared. Could be a conflicting model. Could be...

2. the ammo packs in xen either contain nothing [most of the time] or either a few shotgun shells or some 9mm ammo.

H: Reason being is that the shotguns and the 9mm guns are tied with buckshots and 9mm so those ammo will replenish them. I can't edit them because they are map entities.

3. jenn's m4 blaster thingy is very funny looking, but i find it kind of annoying. maybe haunter thinks its cool, because the months and years of working on this mod have driven him crazy, but it just doesn't feel right. there's got to be a more suitable model for this crazy ass weapon, if not, too bad.

H: You're right! I have gone crazy! HAHAHAHAHAHA! If you really want to, replace it with a M4A1 replacement model. Jenn's Blaster replaces the M4.

4. why not link the available cl6 maps to the black mesa map set? FILEPLANET have a modified version of UPLINK [the old hl1 demo] that links teleporters in c3a2c/f. I added it and it has vastly increased my enjoyment of CL. there are however no chargers/buy menus in the cl6 maps, which is an awful shame!

H: The dude that did the maps, Santaslayer, made the maps for version Beta 5.7. It's quite old and I don't have his contact anymore. Of course, if you are willing to map out something for CL Beta 7.??, no one's stopping you.

5. uh..............

H: Take your time...

I think I still have an old editable version of the Matrix Lobby. My mapping time is long ago but if you could get me the files I need to create CL maps ( I forgot how they're called), I could recompile it for CL Multiplayer or with some time even for Singleplayer.

The .fdg file? It should be in the CL folder.

Then I'll give it a try!

I finally found a non Steam Worldcraft/Hammer version, so I could try but the problem is, there's no fdg file in the CL folder.

Crap! I forgot there isn't one... lol.

Ok, I'm not sure if you could edit the maps but try using the existing ones in the CL folder. Santaslayer did those without any .fdg files. I'm not very familiar with mapping but do ask if you need help.

I think the entities must be pretty much the same as in HL so I think he used the HL.fdg (this should've come to my mind earlier).
I'll try to use a HL DM map in CL, when it works, there will be no Problems.
