Original Alien Swarm was a friendly fire nightmare.
Anyone wanna play either the lolswarm map or this one?

Is there a way to do it over-the-shoulder or first-person?

Run a listen server.
asw_controls 0
firstperson
Cheats may need to be enabled first.

Listen server?
Just do the play online > create server option. That's a listen server.
Anyone know how to compile a map in Alien Swarm's Hammer. I try run the map but it doesn't initiate the compiling sequence. What the fuck.

There might be a guide or something over at swarmarmoy.com

There's nothing about it. :frown:
I made some entity based anomalies for a STALKER map and I can't even compile a map to test them out.

[b]DAMN YOU, I was just making one![/b]
It even had the platform with the 4 pillars thingy, gaaah. Oh well, I suck at mapping anyway. (And I can't figure out how to light this bitch)
Lighting is probably the hardest part.
I can't get the brightness right, It's really dark, or really bright. Can't be inbetween, bah.
Although if you want a dev textured func_detail elevator platform, just contact me.
Can someone tell me how to get the maps to compile? I've been using batch to compile :frown:

[url=http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Swarm_Mapping_basics]This page is your friend[/url].
My guess is you haven't done this step:
[quote]2) All world brush geometry in your level will turn into func_detail during map compile to speed up the VBSP part of map compile. Because of this you will need to seal your level in a different way. The large box that your level resides in will need to be made into a func_brush entity with the name "structure_seal".[/quote] :)
I loaded up an example map. It won't even attempt to compile, it just does nothing when I click Run Map.
How do you get custom music to work? I've replaced some music files and they're not working. Is it something like rebuildaudiocache?
The combat music only plays during hectic scenes like the elevator ride or the first maps outdoor hack.
No, I mean I replaced files in the swarm/music folder. for other music, not just adrenaline

No clue there then.
I'm downloading it, can anyone explain what each class does?

Tech is the only one that really takes some explanation. You are the only guy who can hack doors and consoles and you do so by playing Pipe Dream. Occasionally you'll have to line up numbers.
Adding on to what Banned said:
Medic is the only class that heals people
All classes shoot things
"Smart bombs are like ejaculations. It feels awesome when you do it and it explodes everywhere."
Insane mode is just that. It brings back the difficulty from the UT2K4 mod.

When I first got to the number part I began clicking all the buttons randomly and hope for the best. Two of my squad members died until I figured it out. I can do it pretty fast now.
I haven't yet. How do you do the numbers bit?
[QUOTE=MrBob1337;23538252]I haven't yet. How do you do the numbers bit?[/QUOTE]
You line up all the ones going in the same direction.
Spent a while working on the campaign on insane with some friends, and figured the strategies we figured out might be of some use. So, [url=http://lemming77blog.blogspot.com/2010/07/alien-swarm-formations.html]here you go[/url]. Hope it's all explained well enough. Although I suspect anyone who's done the same thing has figured out the same stuff. :P
For fucks sake.
This happened to me twice.One day I get level 15.Hurray!The next day I come and play, I see..level 6 :crying:
Then I got to lvl 16, and Now I see level 9.What the fuck?Anyone else experiencing those problems?:saddowns:
