Half-life 2 Cut Content - Is it me or dose the cut content look better than what we got? - Games

well, i think i can safely say the map is 100% completed before i publish it, i would like to ask again for a better name, because rp_beta_citadel seems kinda boring. if nobody comes up with anything, i'll rename it gm_beta_citadel because that seems more appropriate for this map. unfortunately, i could not add the citadel core, proto_citadel_garbage, or proto_citadel_advisors. maybe the industrial stuff could be a seperate map

[QUOTE=BoxBuilder999;47316470]What do people think of these sets of Combine lines in the leak? [video=youtube;jqUq_fsNQyc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqUq_fsNQyc[/video] I find it interesting how the Combine seem, at this point in time, to have a completely different type of slang. Has anyone tried editing these to sound Combine-vocoder-ish and see how they sound?[/QUOTE] I can see why this wasn't used, they sound WAY too human, the final voices actually sound like brainwashed slaves completely focused on killing you. Still, MORTON SLAP!!!

[/QUOTE] How about gm_hive_synth, since I believe the Citadel was originally going to be a synth of sorts. Of course, it would result in some horrifying implications...

any idea what font i should use for the workshop logo? (trust me, this is important) i need something that looks alien and somewhat blocky, but not shitty [editline]14th March 2015[/editline] hows this? [img]http://i.imgur.com/fPns6LP.png[/img] not exactly blocky tho [editline]14th March 2015[/editline] [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1455896"]fp thread for the map[/URL] [URL="http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=408071960"]workshop page for the map[/URL] [t]http://i.imgur.com/i70viEI.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=LambdaCore 21;47327957]Your citadel needs light to look good: [url]http://www.abload.de/img/louzkp4e.jpg[/url][/QUOTE] That logo probably represents the "Spire" Citadel when viewed from directly above. That's just a random guess though.

Hey, can anyone give me a download for the folder [B]sound/npc[/B]? I actually don't have the leak, and I don't really want to download all of it just for the sound files.

[QUOTE=BoxBuilder999;47316470]Has anyone tried editing these to sound Combine-vocoder-ish and see how they sound?[/QUOTE] I could always give it the old college try, although it would be just my take on it of course. Wouldn't be that many files that I would do though, as it's a lot of work for something that can be done better.

What if the reason why we've heard nothing about Episode 3 is because of the HL2 Beta Leak? Here we are lamenting a lot of content that never made it into the final game, and Valve just decides that they'll show us as little as possible in their next game so that we won't cry as much about cut content

i would call that somewhat accurate, since for hl2 (and hl1 especially) they released a load of videos and screenshots beforehand, and almost all the stuff in them didn't make it into the final product. they probably dont want a repeat of that.

Not really. If they are that much worried about giving us the wrong expectations, they wouldn't have released a lot of pre-release media for ep1/ep2/left4dead 2/portal 2.

valve is just terrible at promoting content that makes it into the final game i'm pretty sure this has happened with every major valve title.

Just wondering, are there any cover fire animations for the citizens/combine in the leak? There are animations for popping in/out of cover and animations for cover idle, but no animations for out-of-cover idle or shooting from/out of cover in the retail animations. Were there animations for that at one point? Because it seems the default shooting animation stance doesn't match up with the end of the cover-exit-to-shoot animation.

Got about 19 seconds of voice clips vocoded using some software I have lying around. I think it sounds interesting, but nothing more than that. Mostly a quick pass on my part. [video=youtube;Q_K-JRnY5dM]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_K-JRnY5dM[/video]

So I decided to make a background map for no reason, and it's kind of leak-themed, so I thought I'd show it here. [video=youtube;QABRAJwBF50]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QABRAJwBF50[/video] In retrospect, I wish I had installed the leak Combine sounds before recording this. "Your wife doesn't like me, does she?" "Stop whining!"

Sometimes I just hate converting old .vmfs to work in retail HL2. The amount of obsolete stuff is just maddening. [t]http://i.imgur.com/IULh8Yc.png[/t]

that map isn't in the wc mappack, where did you get it?

[QUOTE=Jackathan;47370359]that map isn't in the wc mappack, where did you get it?[/QUOTE] Wait, it isn't? I asked one of my friends to send over his collection of leak maps over Skype, guess this got mixed in or something. I'll ask him. [B] EDIT:[/B] Yeah, turns out he sent the wrong folder to me. I also found this prefab :v:: [t]http://i.imgur.com/xkZ1gXG.png[/t]

how do i compile maps for the beta? i got the old wc included in it set up (csg compile executable field is blank), but whenever i try to compile, i get this error: [code] ** Executing... ** Command: Change Directory ** Parameters: C:\Users\Jonathan\Documents\Game Mods\Source Engine Mods\extras\VALVe BETAS\half-life 2\anon-hl2 ** Executing... ** Command: Copy File ** Parameters: "C:\Users\Jonathan\Documents\Game Mods\Source Engine Mods\extras\VALVe BETAS\half-life 2\anon-hl2\hl2\mapsrc\c17\d2_coast_05.map" "C:\Users\Jonathan\Documents\Game Mods\Source Engine Mods\extras\VALVe BETAS\half-life 2\anon-hl2\hl2\maps\d2_coast_05.map" The command failed. Windows reported the error: "The system cannot find the file specified." [/code] it's obviously possible, but i dunno how.

If I recall correctly, the map builds just fine but you have to manually move it into your maps folder.

You have to use expert mode and set all the commands (vbsp, vvis, vrad, copying the file) manually.

So I discovered on my old external HDD that I had the anon leak since 2009 (whoops). I tried to get work the leak HLMV, but it refuses as the VProject isn't set. I was going to use the sdk_set_env.bat that is found on the steampipe HL2 bin folder, but then I noticed there's no gameinfo to use with. How I can use it?

Just wondering, are there any sounds for the Combine Sniper in the leak? Like, at all? In the retail files, the only one line I can find that was referenced in npc_sounds_sniper.txt is sn_blockdown.wav, which is located in the misc sounds vpk under the folder npc/combine_sniper. All the other sounds referenced in the .txt are either missing, the sniper rifle sounds, or sounds used by other NPCs (Namely the Combine Soldiers).

[QUOTE=Nicknine;47382386]That is odd, the leaked HLMV always worked for me without VProject being set. Are you sure that yours is original?[/QUOTE] I don't even remember from where I got it. Looking at some files like console.log, it is called "Half.Life.2.Beta-ANON only HL2 100%". It even has the readme saying to use the console and that is not what Valve wanted to show. I should get the "russian" leak, as it is more complete and with less corrupt files, right?
