Triggers and Inputs - HALF LIFE MAPPING TUTORIAL (GFYS)

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

Yes, you can use multisource with almost any entity except freaking momentary_rot_button and momentary_door. They just ignore their "master" field.

I don't always watch level design guides while taking a dump, but when I do, it's always Dimbeak's guides.

[@frenchshrimp6108]

[@ElephantsDoingCrack]

I approve

Stay mapping my friends.

These videos are literally the best resource for anyone getting into earlier (jack)hammer mapping for goldsrc games. I started learning with that really long planet Philip video series which is a bit all over the place. Your videos are to the point with some solid visual/audible gags mixed in to keep me entertained. Please keep it up. You're doing god's work son.

[@lewiselliott5339]

Your tutorials are so clear and to the point, I can't describe how much better watching them is than staring at the wall of text on a "The Whole Half Life" wiki page. Seriously, thank you :)

[@sid5479]

bro, your tutorials are really great man. ive mapped a tiny bit for csgo, but theres something about the goldsrc games that just feels so much better lol

[@TestSubject-vo2nl]

Bro i'm literally in JACK rn and i saw that you uploaded a video about mapping again :D

[@ucst4fu5vknihxub6eryreza2]

These videos are wonderful, please make more of them!

how many comedians have you abused to steal their jokes, rofl. i love this guy..

[@lewiselliott5339]

Thanks to your tutorial (and the power of plagiarism via copy/pasting stuff from a map I decompiled from the game files), I've been able to make a working "hello world" map :) Are you planning on doing a tutorial for scripted sequences or going over the specifics of monsters? I'd love to be able to make scientists say and do silly things, or have enemies patrol specific routes.

[@churchofclaus]

I'm only watching these videos to confirm that I am not the only one who was a frustrated 10 year old half-life mapper still going 20 years later

[@Frog102a]

What does this mean "Incorporated func_vehicle entity support from Counter-Strike, for mod-makers to use. Full SDK update will come later, but level designers can use it now."

[@pirmasiskatanass6593]

Hello, could you help me with triggers? I started mapping for goldsrc with the help of your tutorials. I tried to make glass break after the player triggering the aaa wall triger. It all works, except the glass doesn't break, it just dissapears. (Smashing the glass with a crowbar makes it break perfectly like normal)

[@Dimbark]

Name the func_breakable, then have the trigger_once trigger the name of the func_breakable. If that doesn't work, could you send me your map file?

[@pirmasiskatanass6593]

@@Dimbark Very sorry, my bad. It seems that removing special characters such as: !, _, - etc. seems to have fixed the issue. Deep apologies.

[@okacha_0632]

How can i place models into my level in JACK? I looked up online and couldn't find how to do it

[@Dimbark]

Well, it's a complicated question. With default half-life entities, you can put in a model using a cycler. twhl.info/wiki/page/cycler This entity is limited, however, because it'll cycle through animations & bleed if you hit it. Default Half-Life didn't really make use of models. You would need to use some kind of custom entity/custom modbase to make use of models in a more efficient way.

[@WindawzNT]

In Half-Life, as has been said, place your model using a cycler, then swap the classname ("cycler") to cycler_sprite to avoid the model reacting to gunshots. Don't worry - although it's not obvious, cycler_sprite can easily render models as well. There are several things to keep in mind about this trick though: 1. Your model will be passable; 2. Your model likely won't play its animations if it has any; 3. The editor will probably stop previewing the model. You can also use monster_furniture, but I've barely used it myself.

is there a way to pay a func_button that requires a passcode? i would like to have a secret room "door" that can only be opened by func_button with a passcode?

thanks, elephants doing crack. i appreciate the support.

[@Jacespace23]

can you make a door , that opens when you walk up to it?

[@Dimbark]

check out my previous video on level design, there's a door in that one

[@botapril7700]

is there a way to get snipers? i dont see them in the entity menu

[@Dimbark]

Sorry for the late reply. There isn't a specific sniper entity, it's actually somewhat weirdly complicated. I'd recommend decompiling a Valve map and seeing how they did it. I know that the snipers themselves are just func_breakables that you destroy with grenades.

[@liquidjungle123]

[@lemondude2]

for some reason my func_buttons only work when you hit them with a crowbar

[@Dimbark]

set the health to 0, some entities put them at 100 by default for some reason

multiple trigger_relay > multi_manager

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

What's this? Quake style mapping?

[@lukkkasz323]

@@GoldSrcFreeman 3D entity mapping You can see all the connections in 3D mode from every _relay also _relay has more features such as 1. KillTarget 2. Self-kill on fire 3. TriggerState

[@GoldSrcFreeman]

@@lukkkasz323 Those arrows are useless anyway when you make complex maps and you can always target a relay from multi_manager if you need to kill an entity or set the trigger state.

[@noxy5193]

how do i make a func_door_rotating without it getting outside the map?

[@Dimbark]

attach a brush to that entity using the ORIGIN texture. this will act as the center of that brush

[@Dimbark]

put it at the hinge of the door, it'll rotate around the origin

Multi Manager isn't working :( edit:Never mind i was adding in name rather than target

Why do my buttons not work at all like i cannot use them they dont work :(

[@Dimbark]

Are you using spirit of half-life? if so, they have a dumb feature where "Health" is set to 1 by default -- change it to 0.
