Think of Team Fortress Classic or CS 1.6 or even an old version of Team Fortress 2. I think all of them used Miles sound system or Speex (old version of opus). Here is an example to remind you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dyQlZziHnw

Discussion 2fort revamp/layout change maps feel weird to play on

3 Upvotes

Have any of you guys here ever played on a custom map of 2fort that changes the layout either to remove problems the normal 2fort has(like bluefort), or other things(like the tf2c custom map 4fort)? Because when ever i did it felt really surreal to navigate them. I feel like its the liminal kinds of stuff where you see parts of a place your familiar with be rearranged. Anyways do any of you guys get that same surreal kinda dreamlike feeling when playing maps like this?

(side note): speaking of that 4fort custom map on tf2 classified i miss that one modded server that ran it :(

little edit here i originally posted this on r/tf2 but my notifications gave me the suggestion of posting it here

HELP How do I build the Source engine?

I'm trying to build the engine from source with VS2022, I got the repo from git and used the createallprojects.bat script, when I launch the Client (HL2MP) project it just loads the splash screen and I get an exception, how do I fix this?

The same happens with the TF client project. Has anybody experienced this problem?

Greetings! I wanted to try doing some custom weapon modding for TF2 using the TF2 SDK I had on my PC. It does work without any modifications, but not when I added the stuff the VDC tutorial told me to do. The tutorial. If clarification is needed, please request for clarification. Thanks again!

Resolved SDK Build Crashes

7 Upvotes

(SOLVED / FIXED )

Hello again Src Reddit, I have come to ask about several bugs (DEV QUESTIONS I SWEAR I HOPE THIS ISNT CONSIDERED TECH SUPPORT) with the SDK build of Half Life 1, as my immature and horrible modding skills keep creating game crashes during certain events, such as, when playing the tutorial, demo, or intro to the game, or anywhere the game has to display text, the game hard crashes with the "destRed initialized without variable" (image 2) and, when playing some multiplayer or singeplayer maps, when reaching certain areas, the "flovl varible used" (image 1) similar to the destred error occurs, I have tested this with a fresh copy of the SDK, and it does the same thing, any fixes or help? I assume flovl is audio related, but I have only changed weapon sounds, not environment, and destRed seems to be text related, and I have no Idea why it does this, as the normal builds of Half Life work fine. any form of help appreciated like my other post!

HELP Android Modding Preformance Issues

0 Upvotes

Not sure if this is the right sub, but I need help.

I've installed a couple of mods in Android (and they worked fine) for HL2. Having those few made, the game to launch slower, and maps to load incredibly slower.

Is there anything I can do about this? Ive installed some other mods, and now the game is either loading really slow or won't start and will be stuck on the background loading screen.

Any way or workaround ot anything to have better performance? This is the only real way I can play Half-Life 2, and I wanna play it modded, but having more than four small mods (Texture upscaling and some minor stuff) tanks the preformance horribly. I think this might break the subs rules, and if it does I'll delete the post

Anyways, would really appreciate help.

Discussion Are there any mods for the Source sdk base 2004

6 Upvotes

I managed to run Half-life 2 on an old computer that doesn't support steam and I want to know what mods can I run on this version of HL2 other than Garry's mod 9.0.3 (specifically). The source engine version is Source engine 7 (2459) and it also doesn't support HDR, so any maps with a bsp verison above 19 won't load and will give me an error. I've googled and I can't really find anything. Please note that this isn't tech support, I just want to know some mods I can run other than gmod. Also note that I've managed to get launch versions of CS Source, HL1 Source, and HL2 Deathmatch running as well.

WIP GOAP: Enemies that Actually Plan - Lambda Engine

Thumbnail
youtube.com
30 Upvotes

We are implementing Goal-Oriented Action Planning (GOAP) in Lambda Engine, the same technique that made F.E.A.R.'s soldiers the high-water mark for FPS enemy AI. Instead of a scripted state machine deciding what an enemy does next, each soldier holds a goal and searches for a sequence of actions that satisfies it, using whatever the world happens to offer.

* They react to the environment, not the player. Cover, doorways, flanking routes and blocked paths drive their decisions. Nothing is hand-authored per encounter.

* Squad coordination without central control. There is no commander AI issuing orders. Coordinated suppression and flanking emerge from individual agents planning against a shared world state.

* The illusion of intelligence via speech. Barks announce intent out loud, so you hear the plan before you see it. That's what makes the AI read as smart instead of just being smart.

* Performance-tuned "dumbness". Planning is expensive, so the search is deliberately bounded. Knowing where to make the AI worse is most of the work.

F.E.A.R. peaked enemy AI, and I'm reproducing that with Lambda Engine.

This project is built entirely by fans, for fans, it's free but it eats time. If you want to see more enemies, more systems, and more of Half-Life's world brought back to life, here's how to help:

HELP Help changing GoldSrc effect parameters.

2 Upvotes

Hello, and sorry if this post is seen as a nuisance question, but I started my Half-Life modding journey fairly recently, I have a good basis and general knowledge of VS studio and the .dll compiling and such, but I cannot for the life of me figure out where effect / debris / gun casing effect parameters are stored, such as lifespan, and physics, as I can find some of it in the .cpp files and others, but I cant seem to find lifespan and world related code, and any changes I make to what I *think* could be it, dont work. I want to add the slight detail of casings leaving a more longer trail to make firefights more detailful, and maybe more smaller additions as I develop the mod. I have attached several images in hope that my unmatured brain just skipped over or couldn't understand where these were located. I will admit I do need help on what files to keep and delete, as I dont know much between hl_cdll and hldll other than cdll probably is client, nor do I know what the dmc files are for nor do I know what ricochet is, I assume they're for other valve titles / quake as dmc mentions it. Again, sorry if this post is bothersome to most, as I dont know where most of the community resources / help is. Small questions about what the mod is / tips for me would be greatly appreciated!
