Any reason this shouldn't be working?

Set a Pitch Yaw Roll (Use "Point At"and click where you want the focus of the sun to be).

did it, still nothing :(
[QUOTE=paulisdead18;36345361]Actually, I have no idea how I would activate an ambient_generic with a logic_auto. Anyone know how?[/QUOTE]
Still having trouble with this. I just can't get this to loop. Does anyone know what I would need to do? Seems the obvious way isn't working for me.
OnMapLoad?
[QUOTE=TCB;36361914]OnMapLoad?[/QUOTE]
Doesn't seem to work for me. I make a logic_auto, make a trigger to PlaySound OnMapLoad, but it ends after one play.
As another question, I heard about mipmaps and about how they should be used so textures don't look bad at distances. My question is, to what degree should I put it to?
Make it target a logic_case that will activate the loop.
[QUOTE=TCB;36362170]Make it target a logic_case that will activate the loop.[/QUOTE]
I don't what to put in outputs or the entity properties or anything. I've pretty much never used those entities ever. What exactly would I need to do?
[QUOTE=Stiffy360;36360458]You could have one giant lightmap... or you can edit the texture, and make it an "unlitgeneric"...

Okay that worked, but the displacement still casts a shadow on the brushes below it .. this wouldn't be a problem if I could tie it to a function :U. Is there any way to disable the displacement from "giving" out shadows ?
Why not just place a blocklight brush?
[QUOTE=TCB;36365116]Why not just place a blocklight brush?[/QUOTE]
Eh, I dont really know how they work :$ .. would I just cover the area that I don't want to have shadows with blocklight brushes ?
Anywhere that you don't want light to pass through, make a brush with the blocklight texture.
[QUOTE=TCB;36365601]Anywhere that you don't want light to pass through, make a brush with the blocklight texture.[/QUOTE]
Excuse my noobiness, but won't that block light_environment from passing through as well ? What I have is a displacement 'dome' ontop of a circle. Now I want light to pass through that 'dome' so that it hits the brushes beneath it, and since I can't tie a function to it (to disable shadows) im not sure as what i should do
snip
If the dome is glass, it shouldn't cast shadows.
[QUOTE=TCB;36365700]If the dome is glass, it shouldn't cast shadows.[/QUOTE]
It isn't made from glass x).
In that case, how can i make a texture transparent but appear solid at the same time ? So it'd be like glass, only not be see through
I don't think you can, unless you use $translucent in the vmt.
I have a really stupid and embarrassing question;
What is a good way to texture the edge of an arch for a tunnel? As in like the front edge that you would see as you are about to enter a tunnel or something? Everything I've tried so far has made it look like shit.
Should I be using a model or something?
Like the outer edge of this arch is what I'm trying to achive;

Do you have a skybox with a skybox texture in the area you want the light to be?
Hi,
Does anyone know the model path of the train used in the intro of half life 2? I can't seem to find it. :(

When i type in the "passenger" part, it's not showing the train in the results.

I need the one from the beginning of half-life2 where you can stand in :P. The screenshot is just me showing i do have the model.

That's not a model, it's brush-based.

Alright, thanks for the reply
How thick should a wall really be? 16 units?
[QUOTE=Doom;36369775]How thick should a wall really be? 16 units?[/QUOTE]
Depends on what kind of wall it is
I make my indoor walls usually like 4 or 6, and my outside walls 6 or 8, I hope we're talking about the same thing.

A wall with a door into a room for an example. But you answered my question so thank you :)
