Good job, you joined to ask about mapping for an outdated engine.
Did you run qcsg first?
Anyone got a full pack/collection of official pre-release screenshots?
[QUOTE=Agent Fedora;44592219]looks like a tec-9[/QUOTE]That would explain the 50-round magazine on the MP5.
[QUOTE=PikaCommando;46142583]Anyone got a full pack/collection of official pre-release screenshots?[/QUOTE] Search for them yourself bud. It's not hard at all.
The panthereye's mouth texture. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FGQ2OCO.png[/IMG] Pretty hot

[editline]5th October 2014[/editline] If somebody makes a low poly nude person I'll texture it with these textures.
This made me interested to see how the Alpha Gornach would look like. Imagine the huge bugling veins and blood vessels on the ballsack squelching and moving as blood flows through them.
[QUOTE=Ziron;46160808]Search for them yourself bud. It's not hard at all.[/QUOTE] The wiki's gallery is crowded with screenshots from the leak, and I would appreciate it if I know the sources of those pr screenshots.

That tried to rape you, and punched off your glasses.
[QUOTE=Megadave;46169902]That tried to rape you, and punched off your glasses.[/QUOTE] That's horrible! What if Gordon's glasses were really expensive or some sort of family heirloom?
I read up on the Combine Overwiki (Half-Life wiki) that Half-Life was aimed at teenagers 15 and over... Ahh now I see why they had somewhat genitalia related enemies.
To be honest the only current HL enemy that I think is vaguely sexual (Aside the from the clearly obvious Gonarch) is the headcrab. The way it's mouth is textured is [I]vaguely[/I] vagina-like. Which actually is interesting to think about, the baby headcrabs are an awkward mix of gonarch and headcrab, they have the body structure of a headcrab and the gonarch's testicle. However the headcrabs we see the rest of the game have the more vagina like mouth (which means at some point during the headcrab life cycle the testicle is lost, be it by atrophy or if it's consumed by the body for growth nutrients...(perhaps the vagina mouth consumes the testicle?)) and copulate with their victim's heads. Then obviously the gonarch is a giant testicle on legs that gives birth through it's testicle and shoots toxic white globs from its "head". I probably just stated a bunch of the obvious but now that I just over analyzed the shit out of headcrabs it looks like a dark metaphor for fears teens might experience like fears of non-masculinity, sex, and growing up.

[QUOTE=PikaCommando;46183176]What, Black Ops isn't sexual enough for you?[/QUOTE] I was only thinking of aliens. Black Ops are definitely sexual but aren't really horrifying. Though I suppose they could be if you consider the pistols to be penises wielded by agile and bustiful women.
[QUOTE=Cows Rule;46183286]Though I suppose they could be if you consider the pistols to be penises wielded by agile and bustiful women.[/QUOTE]That doesn't scare me in the least, in fact, I find that rather appealing... unless you're talking about a Videodrome kind of pistol/penis.

If anyone's interested in this sort of stuff, [url=http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1430429]I just released[/url] a big pack containing most of the hl1 leak models ported to source.
REVIVAL. I wish they had kept chumtoads. They're adorable and awesome and just everything good.
Oh god i forgot about the robo grunts. Yeah, they're awesome too. But nothing beats Panthereyes!
[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;46668470]Well at least there's Sven Co-op. Chumtoads and robo grunts are the best. [editline]8th December 2014[/editline] "[I]Mister--I will kick your ass [/I]" I still wonder if an early beta of HL will ever surface eventually. If I remember right someone claimed to have something but everything went quiet? Probably wrong though.[/QUOTE] Dude, read op.
[QUOTE=Galen;46668524]Oh god i forgot about the robo grunts. Yeah, they're awesome too. But nothing beats Panthereyes![/QUOTE] Robo Grunts were never apart of the game, excluding those 2 photos of the early robo grunt in-action, but not much is known about it. For all we know Valve planned ahead of time with the german release?
I'm toying with the idea of getting all the available alpha content ported into retail GoldSrc. The maps load fine of course, but things like ripent don't work on them. Does anybody know how to change the BSP version via a hex editor or something? The only reason I ask is because I [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgMC8wo9COY"]seen somebody do it[/URL] and it allowed c1a0e to work in the alpha. Maybe it could allow alpha maps to have tools like ripent work on them?
Open up your Hex Editor, go to the left column with all the hex code, and replace "1D" with "1E" at the very beginning.
There's this weird bug where changelevels don't quite work properly. They load up the next level, but the player is stuck at origin and it says the player is dead and cant respawn. The only way to fix is to type restart in the console, but of course this removes all your weapons and such. Is there a fix for this?

My guess is that it somehow gives the player an invalid health amount.
