ZOMG need some help

Post by Chandler »

Alright so I'm currently attempting to make a total Conversion for Half Life.
Yet, when I'm trying to get the liblist.gam to show up, it crashes because it does not have what gametype it is.

(i.e. "co-op")

do I have to code how the game works separately? or am I able to just leave it the way it is, which is currently without a type.

Person who answers first get's a FREE INTERNET!

basically
gameinfo.txt
it's how the half Life 1 engine is able to detect mods.
Each mod is unique however, so each liblist is different. Some of them have singleplayer capability so they say singleplayer_only, much like gaeminfo.txt
it's caled
liblist.gam

:D
CS used to have one but doesn't beause it is now a standalone game

Cheak the lines of code for errors, and put cheats on in the code system, oh its half life 1, I don't know as much as I do at half life 2 coding.

I basically know nothing about coding...

But I would think checking the code for errors would be the first thing someone would do.

And "Put cheats on in the code system"......

...whaaa?....

you can't do that. It won't RUN because it says I am missing the gametype.
:P
there is no coding for the liblist.gam
it's just a text file.
that telle STEAM that the directory exists

If your spelling and general ineptitude towards mapping is anything to go by, you know f*ck all about anything.

No offense but would it kill you guys to leve vasili alone for like 5 threads and focus on what i need done here?
BTW scrap, thanks for tryin' but that's for WON style games.

I'm still getting that damn Error.

GAMETYPE NOT DEFINED

totally bizarre. I've asked around and like no one has had these problems.

Right, apologies on the assorted bashing of persons who shall remain nameless...


Okay, this is what I found inside my liblist.gam for Sven-Coop:

Code: Select all

game "Sven Co-op"
url_info "http://www.svencoop.com"
url_dl "http://www.svencoop.com"
version "3.0"
size "5"
svonly "0"
cldll "1"
secure "0"
hlversion "1110"  
nomodels "0"
nohimodel "1"
type "multiplayer_only"
mpentity "info_player_deathmatch"
gamedll "dlls\hl.dll"
gamedll_linux "dlls/hl_i386.so"
I'm not sure if this helps at all, but what exactly is the problem? You have your liblist.gam setup properly, but the game thinks it doesn't exist properly? If that be the case, which file are you coding that determines this? Post the code, and maybe we'll see what's screwy.

Plus, yes... Rocket Propelled Chainsaws.... They have to stick, and cut for a few after getting fired into something. Then... I don't know, explode or something. It's your mod dude. Just make it drool-tastic.
