Half-Life 2 Random Map Creator/Generator 1.0
Plugin/Modification for Half-Life 2
I guess the title says it all, this is a plugin application i'm developing for Half-Life 2. It's designed to; with the click of a button; generate a fully playable (and hopefully fun) map.
A bit of history: About 2-2.5 years ago I played a very interesting map generator for Half-Life 1 called "RandMap", probably forgotten by now. I got inspired and started coding one of my own, but at that time I simply wasn't good enough.
After Half-Life 2 got released I decided to resume the work once again and now focused it on Half-Life 2. After 4 months of painfully boring coding I finaly produced a piece of crap witch i called "Half-Life 2 Random Map Creator 0.9.34b". It was barely playable, had a lot of know bugs, no extras, ugly design and bad, bad, bad alogoritms. It lacked so much.
A year later I looked back at my old project and realized that the idea still had potential so I scrapped all bad code and started from scratch. That was in june 2004.
In late december a rather nasty incindent struck the HL2rmc project though. The hard drive with all the source code on was physicly injured and 4 months of 99% complete code was lost.
But Now Half-Life 2 RMC 1.0 is taking shape and the (lost) engine has produced several playable developer maps for HL2 with it's trial-and-error mapmaking algoritm (that will be completly rewritten).
The actual generation of the map is done within 30 seconds but it also needs compile which i project will take about 10-15 minutes for an average sized map.
You will also be able to setup the generation process so the map will have a layout designed for you. The new RMC will also contain tons of extras and settings.
Expected release is sometime in may. Check out our site for more frequent updates. ;)
And OFC, it will be free!

A lot of things have happned the last month, the worst in december where the hard drive with all our source code was physicaly injured and 4 months of intense work where lost. You can read more of this incident on our forums ( Hl2rmc.hl2files.com )
Now the hl2rmc 1.0 project is back on track and we're back recoding everything from scratch, and were making progress.. finishing the GUI design today:
We might have a beta release in a couple of weeks if everythings proceedes this smooth. ^^

Can someone please try to fix this?
Doesn't work, vis always fails, even using hammer to compile it. It's not my hammer, I compiled alot of test maps and they all worked. Anyone got a fix for this?
I cant get rmc 0.94 to work its not detecting my source sdk
Go to your "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\YOUR USERNAME HERE\sourcesdk\bin"
Then rename your "bin" folder "bin2"
Now go into the "ep1" folder in the "bin2" folder and you will see another folder called "bin" copy that into:
"C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\YOUR USERNAME HERE\sourcesdk"
What the hell happened to the site? It redirects to some lameass money site.
Actually, Now it doesn't even do that. This thing is broken. Abandoned by it's creator like an old amusement park.
