Half-Life and Portal series, general discussion (v6) - Games

Really enjoying brutal doom, it has some funny bugs tho, you can kick boxes up in the air and they wont come down, and you can kick enemies up walls [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQIx6XVQnfE[/media]

Has anyone here managed to get CSS Sci Fi 3: Hardwired to work? Or at the very least, the custom maps from SMOD: Redux? Trying to get anything SMOD related to function properly is a huge pain.

I don't get what the podcast is supposed to be. Does it answer any of the pressing questions we've been having for the past 8 years, or is it just making them more ambiguous?

[QUOTE=FlyingAlien;47363698]You should probably work off a legacy HL2 version - half the great SMOD stuff broke after the Steam version finally got the Orange Box update.[/QUOTE] I don't really know how to do that. I've been trying to get it to work by messing around with SMOD Standalone, but it's just been one problem after another.

I'm out of ideas.

[QUOTE=Xubs;47365951]I have a working copy of SMOD Standalone with me right now, sure you're not just installing it wrong? The procedure is prone to failure, that's why it's not at 1.0.[/QUOTE] I got SMOD vanilla and most of Redux to work (aside from the extra CSS objective maps, which spawn with no enemies for some reason), and Tactical has some weird bugs and is missing some textures. CSS Sci Fi just crashes before I can reach any menus.

Does anyone know how I can get custom dialog lines for Portal 2 to ACTUALLY work? I muted all of Wheatleys voice lines and placed those files in a proper folder and used the -override_vpk startup option but still the original lines play.

they need to be in vpk sounds only mount when in vpk or packed in bsp

[QUOTE=WhyNott;47369613]they need to be in vpk sounds only mount when in vpk or packed in bsp[/QUOTE] Yeah, I tried that whole thing (extracting pak01_dir, adding in new files, dragging folder on vpk.exe) but vpk just sits there and doesn't output anything

sooo 7 years later they just suddenly realized they had to make another game? sounds legit

[QUOTE=Pops;47361657]someone needs to play through the entire game with kicking only.[/QUOTE] I'm half-imagining the HECU radio'ing in about a bunnyhopping, angry Gordon kicking everyone to death and up walls before he zooms across the dam, punting all of the soldiers and the Gargantua into the waters for the Itchyosaur.

Look what I've found [video=youtube;WtlfRZFi3sc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtlfRZFi3sc[/video]

you can kick barnacles, i've just discovered. also is there some sort of hd compatibility mod for this?

[QUOTE=PwnGModer;47370139]Look what I've found [video=youtube;WtlfRZFi3sc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtlfRZFi3sc[/video][/QUOTE] Looking at videos like this, HL2's models really show their age. No matter how nice people manage to integrate them into actual footage, they're just pretty low res and weird looking.

[QUOTE=PwnGModer;47370139]Look what I've found [video=youtube;WtlfRZFi3sc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtlfRZFi3sc[/video][/QUOTE] That is actually pretty funny. :v:

Brutal HL is just muthaf*ckin' awesome. Actually with the secondary attack from the shotgun and/or the kick, we can now kick enemies in pits, now, such as lift shafts.

In BHL I just love making enemies go into the wounded state.

Great, now that I've got the original SMOD working, I've become obsessed with fixing/playing old Source mods. What a horrible existence this is.

[QUOTE='Ninja Nub[NOR];47376312']Oooh, how'd you get smod working?[/QUOTE] I just used the download link [URL="http://www.bsnooch.com/forums/index.php?topic=282.0"]here.[/URL] So far, I haven't had any problems.

Browsing the thread in SH made me remember the canned Portal 2 DLC. Very bittersweet. I remember speculating with friends about what the single player campaign would be. I hope that content makes its way into any Portal 3 thing.
