Never mapped before but i want to make a room full of things to blowup and push around. From my "Understanding" after readying bits of the documentation to insert barrels and things you insert them as prefabs. Although when i try to insert a prefab the list is empty.. why? how do i fix it? <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    those are prop physics... which are point entities, not prefabs<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    That depends on what you want the objects to do though.

    For a simple barrel with the physics already sorted for it (i'm struggling for the right words here) a prop_pyhsics will do. If you try and place something like the boat, you need to put it in as a prop_detail, prop_static or a prop_phys_overide ( if you want it to be physically effected by the environment, like in that race map on the last page)

    Does the new hammer had 3D locking? By that, I mean a way you can toggle on the function and it then prevents brushes from being dragged through each other? This would allow you to, say, drop a table prefab in the map and then drag it up against (but not through) the wall and floor. The hammer guy said they might add it, and I was wondering if they did. As a feature, it would make populating your map with objects like twenty times easier.

    i have not noticed it yet, but it is alot easier in this hammer to line up objects than it was in the old one. No more bringing the grid into its smallest size to make sure it perfectly lines up.
  • AposApos Join Date: 2003-06-14 Member: 17369Members, Constellation
    What makes it easier? Do the sides "pop" together better automatically than they did before (where they popped to the gridlines but not necessarily to each other)?

    Wow, those open area's of HL are very very impressive.


    HL2 looks like it's gonna go far. 280 fps on a square mile or two of flatland? Holy damn...

    I'd hardly consider that any sort of challenge for the renderer.

    I didn't expect much out of the new Hammer, but I expected more than this. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> Day by day I get less excited about Source as an engine (but, of course, I still remain ridiculously excited about HL2).

    It's a means to an end, my friend. As long as it puts HL2-level gameplay at my editing fingertips, then I'm sorted!

    What kind of options were you hoping for?

    I have to admit I'm a bit ignorant about the other engines since HL is the only game I've done level design for.

    It is definitely not perfect, but they pop to the correct gridlines alot more often than they used to.

    Yes, I toyed with it at a friends house, I'm also sadly dissapointed. I found nothing to indecate that patch meshes are even supported (come on, quake 3 had this, and it's a 5 year old engine!).

    Does HL2 even support them? huh...

    They're kind of superceded by static meshes and displacements. It would have of been nice to have them, but I can live without.

    screw hammer, i'm just messing around with the model viewer. the players in CS:S are about 3200 tris...more than I expected and the hostages are ranging from 4100 (!?!?) to OVER 5000...wth? It's fun to pose their faces though.

    but even a small one is scaled up 16 times, so a compromise would be in order. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    It's also the very first SDK and the very first Hammer. I would imagine as later versions get released (to support DX10, or whatever it's to be called) the abilities and flexibility will rise dramatically. Then again, I am not a mapper, so I don't really care.
