Mapping Question Megathread v3

[Framperton]

Is there any 'goto' function to locate props that need to be changed into a different type of prop?

Using CS GO, and it seems to be complaining about props that don't exist.

[I]Map → Entity Report[/I]
You can either search by class (e.g. "prop_static") or by keyvalue, in this case model (e.g. "model" = "models/props_junk/bicycle01a.mdl"). You can select the entities you need by shift-clicking on them in the list. If you want to change their class all at once, just open the properties with all the entities selected and manually type in the new classname.

[QUOTE=Mozartkugeln;39415074]Have you tried clicking "No"? :V[/QUOTE]

Ah ah ah. Very funny. It makes hammer crash.

And please everybody don't just ignore me now only because someone replied with a joke, c'mon...

[Firegod522]

What does line 1 say if you open the .vmf in notepad?

[Mozartkugeln]

Well, I dunno. I guess you could try opening the file in a text editor and copying the geometry into another VMF?

[Aleal]

[QUOTE=Firegod522;39415701]What does line 1 say if you open the .vmf in notepad?[/QUOTE]

It says "versioninfo", shall I try to delete it?

Doesn't work. Maybe I'll change what's written in the brackets and try using tf2's hammer?

No luck.

[QUOTE=SammySung;39408852]Why do my doors do this?

Anyone have any further suggestions?

[Mozartkugeln]

Have the door start out open so it gets compiled facing outward (or inward if you want), and then fire a [I]logic_auto[/I] to close it [I]OnMapSpawn[/I].

Oooo, good suggestion! I'll give it a whirl!

[DovydasAL]

I am editing a gmod map, and it requires css models/textures. How do I get them into hammer when using gmod configuration.

[EddieLTU]

[QUOTE=DovydasAL;39424701]I am editing a gmod map, and it requires css models/textures. How do I get them into hammer when using gmod configuration.[/QUOTE]

Option 1:run hammer using css configurations and add garrysmod.fgd (unless you're making a map that use mostly gmod scripts/content, use option 2)

Option 2: is to extract all materials/models from .GCF to garrysmod/garrysmod

[Framperton]

How do I find overlapping paralell brushes that this log would seem to indicate?

Does anyone know any good places to get texture packs or decals? I've had a look through Gamebanana already, that's the only site i know other than gamingmodels.de. Is there anywhere else?

[Mozartkugeln]

[QUOTE=SammySung;39424563]Oooo, good suggestion! I'll give it a whirl![/QUOTE]

This just occurred to me: you can place the doors [I]outside[/I] the doorway altogether, compile the map and then use [URL=https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Entspy]Entspy[/URL] or a similar tool to change the doors' origin and put them inside the frame.

[QUOTE=Framperton;39425105]How do I find overlapping paralell brushes that this log would seem to indicate?[/QUOTE]

Uh, I don't see any errors there. You sure you posted the right log?
Anyway, the compile tools will usually give you a brush ID in the case of duplicate planes, bad face normals, etc. You can use [I]View → Go to Brush Number...[/I] (CTRL+SHIFT+G) to trace that ID to a brush.

[Casadis]

What is the best way to make it so you walk into a room, and you get teleported somewhere while looking at a trigger_look [B]while[/B] the teleports keeps your eye angles so it doesn't look wierd?

[Mozartkugeln]

Oh boy, I had that issue before and it really pissed me off. It's not possible to keep eye angles between teleports as far as I know. The [URL=https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Trigger_teleport#Flags]"Preserve angles even when a local landmark is not specified" flag[/URL] on [I]trigger_teleport[/I]s is supposed to do this, but it was broken last time I checked. What you could try, I guess, is setting the "Local Destination Landmark" keyvalue to [I]!self[/I].

I should have specified, I meant the warnings, specifically these:

[B]"warning - face vectors parallel to face normal. bad lighting will be produced

I have been lighting my level for the better part of today, and I haven't seen any issues so far, is this something to worry about?

[Mozartkugeln]

There's not much you can do about that as it didn't report where or on what brush these bad faces are exactly.

Question : If am am creating a HQ texture (It is a map about the map) the people which has the game at low resolution and texture they will see the texture in HQ or bad quality ?

Horrible annoying issue here, it seems that for whatever reason, the doors in my underground map turn odd dark colors whenever they are off screen, and fade back into normal lighting when looked at for a few seconds. So to make this clear, [U]the doors do have proper looking lighting when you look at them, from any angle,[/U] (I'm aware that this looks similar to other odd door lighting glitches) but if you should do something like turn around so that they go off-screen, they will appear to quickly fade in from black when you look at them again. This particular screenshot is on fast vis, but there seems to be no change in full vis compiles either.

They will get a lower LOD version of it, but you can prevent this by checking the "No Mipmap" and "No Level Of Detail" flags in VTFEdit.

I'm having an issue with my latest map where in the view port in hammer the two brushes are touching and there isn't a gap but when I test it there is a gap. Am I missing something here?

These are ignorable as long as they aren't seen. In my map that had that kind of thing, the face was bright red or something. Keep a lookout for it.

How are you testing it? You can use CTRL+B to snap a brush to the grid.

[Dokaman]

Using HL2 EP2, I'll try that snapping to grid thing I just don't understand why in Hammer the brushes are clearly connected and there is no gap yet in game there is.

[Mozartkugeln]

A screenshot or two would be nice. If the snapping thing doesn't work, I suggest just deleting the brushes in question and remaking them.

[FelixDragon]

I'm trying to parent the player to a minecart that's riding along some tracks, and everything is working fine so far except for when the cart starts to move down an incline, the player just falls normally, with the added downwards speed and they end up falling through the map.

It's a func_tracktrain, the player is parented to it by being given a targetname such as "t6_rider"
(if anyone else needs to know how to do this, make sure you have an info_null named the same thing that you name the player)
then a game_ui activates and freezes the player, so they cannot move, and everything works fine. but as soon as the func_tracktrain starts to move down a slope everything starts messing up. The tracktrain the player is being parented to is at a fixed orientation and not visible, I have a separate tracktrain for the cart.

What I want it to do is have the player follow the cart exactly, in the air and such, but I keep falling through the map.

I really don't want to be [i]that guy[/i], but

The command failed. Windows reported the error:
  "The system cannot find the file specified."

I've checked the .vmt files, and they are using appropriate surfaceprops. What's going on?

That's not necessarily the issue. It makes it past that, to "Building Physics collision data...".

EDIT: Double check your configuration, I'm willing to bet it'd compile fine on a different game's settings.

Why exactly is the texture on the building warping?
