Anyone got anything planned in that area? You can map for HL2 in Radiant, you know. I've been getting to grips with Hammer. It's nowhere near as easy to use as Radiant, but there a lot of necessary things Radiant can't do, such as displacements and working with entities more advanced than info_player_start. VRAD is slow as hell compiling lightmaps too, compared with q3map2. Oh yeah, off-topic in my own thread but - I mentioned to someone I'd upload an unfinished (but quite advanced) CoDSP map I was working on. I'll try to remember to do that tonight and post a link in this thread.

( http://www.snarkpit.com/maps.php?map=1540 ) but haven't touched hl2 mapping since the end of december. If CTF ends up being good, I'll proably map for it..and I someday hope to finish a nice epic singleplayer map for it as well. But for now I'm sticking with doom/quake. _________________ "Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you..."

I mean, external scripting just for a static, looped sound? WTF?): http://web.onetel.net.uk/~stevenchapman/mebort.zip And here's a tempting screenshot What you get is: a 3/4 completed map, with models, some weapons here and there (including a couple of MG42s), background sound like in the game. The files should go in the exact same folders as in the zip file under c:/.../Call of Duty/main/... Running through it again has inspired me to learn Softimage and maybe make some leafy trees for HL2 because it has none. Those CoD trees look great.
