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

Hang on, I just thought of something. If the air is polluted and unbreathable, why don't the children or stenographer's chasm models have gas masks...?

[QUOTE=bw1119;50382468]Hang on, I just thought of something.

Alternatively the Combine are literally trying to work them to death in Beta context.

[QUOTE=bw1119;50382468]Hang on, I just thought of something. If the air is polluted and unbreathable, why don't the children or stenographer's chasm models have gas masks...?[/QUOTE] Most probably because air ex was scrapped before child models were made. Remember that Mark said it was a process of many small things changing almost every day, not a big WHOOP now it's the "new story". e3_industrial and the old train plaza it leads to already have normal citizens without gasmasks.

So what does have citizens with gas mask? So far we only know of city_test and e3_strider/whichever d4_streetwar map it was only from the screenshots. I mean, if they are in the street war maps, then surely they might be around somewhere else too? The e3_strider screenshot might have been taken early since it was meant for E3 2002, and Marc said the gas mask citizen was probably one of the earliest things cut since it doesn't showcase their facial technology. On another note, why doesn't the Conscript have gas masks, especially since they work at AirEx itself?

[QUOTE=Milkyway M16;50352746]***CITADEL MODEL DISCLAIMER*** The citadel model looks pretty bad from most angles except from the front. It is the same model from the leak with the uv map adjusted to better match the texture also provided in the leak. I did very minimal work to this model just to get the texture to line up correctly and it's still probably a bit off. The model was obviously intended to be viewed only from the front. ***CITADEL MODEL DISCLAIMER*** With that out of the way, here's the citadel: [img]http://i.imgur.com/WPLn65u.png[/img] [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/wo6ot849nx84agy/citadel.rar?dl=0[/url] Here's the gasmask dude: [img]http://i.imgur.com/sXEojO0.png[/img] [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/8moi91w8m23h6zw/gasmask%20citizen.rar?dl=0[/url] Have fun :pudge:[/QUOTE] Thanks for models ;) [IMG]https://pp.vk.me/c604420/v604420288/102e9/nDvKvSv0wtU.jpg[/IMG]

Need some 'elp here lads. When I try and run my fix of e3_industrial in HL2 (EP2 duh), it crashes after loading for a bit. Nothing in the compile log reveals why it is crashing. Has anyone else had similar problems with e3_industrial, or is it just me? By the way, this was happening to me on the other version of e3_industrial I worked on. So it's not this map version in particular.

[QUOTE=crazeeweegeman4;50410737]The screenshot shows it using the walk animation. I imagine all you'd need to do is specify it as the model.[/QUOTE] But how? You can't just choose a model you want. In hamemr you have only npc_citizen entity, and then there is an option to choose citizen type, like: rebel, refugee, etc. I thought maybe by using "unique" version, but the game just crashes after this. So I edited halflife2.fgd and added a new position under 'model' section, but it works only in Hammer. Even when i just replace the path to the model under existing position (like Male 9) :/

I too can't get it to work with npc_citizen but it will with prop_dynamic :/ is tere a tutorial some where that you can post a link too :) EDIT :: I'm dumb the test map with the gasmask npc was starting up in hl2 ep2 :( sorry

The Stenographer's Chasm pistons make the game crash, but I don't want to remove them because they're so cool! Does anyone know how to fix them?

First, there are phys_hinge entities. phys_hinge was originally a brush entity but it was made into a point entity some time after E3 2002. As a result, all of phys_hinges end up at map origin point. You need to move them to the proper spots and set hinge axis. Then there are phys_slideconstraint entities, I think they are causing crashing. You need to set axis properly on them, too.
