The simple questions thread

Post by LordDz »

Because I sure will have a lot of little questions.
Post all small questions here! ;)




First:
Could someone attach their gameinfo.txt ? I think I might have screwed mine up without a backup.

when I map, I must set the line like that :
SteamAppId 420 // include ep2, hl2, css

and when I play, I must set it like that :
SteamAppId 218

Yeah, that also solved the black issue which I had another quite tedious way to fix.

But can you compile when it is like that? Because right now the compile log is all blank when I try to compile my maps.

This is what I'm trying to solve: http://www.interlopers.net/forum/viewto ... 94#p425794

That's not what I meant. That's for in-game. I wanna know how to do it when working on a map.

You can use the console command if you create a [mapname]_cfg.txt for your map, as seen in the obsidian/maps/cfg folder.

As far as doing it from within the map itself, you go to the worldspawn entity and there should be a keyvalue for setting the default amount of starting lives. Putting any number here will enable lives in your map.

Thank you, I found the keyvalue.

Are there any ways to detect if the game is played with teams enabled?

Also, how do you guys do when you want a team to win? A text with "Pokémon fanb0ys won" / "l33t nuubz0rsh lost"?
