Half life 2?

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

I was playing half life 2 the other day and it chanced upon my mind to make some units for operation flashpoint like the combine soldiers and cops and some of the vehicles, would anybody be interested in it? I cant model because i am lame, and i cant texture because i dont like the idea of creating a new drive on my computer and it seems difficult, but if i was to learn, how many people would be interested in the addons?

[nephilim 0]

well mex0r for sure ;P

well itl be pretty useless i think

since hl2 uses bumpmaps and stuff

itll look pretty crap in ofp

the models arent so high detailed...

so do wot u want i dont need that

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

cool, i wont do it then, thanks for your opinion nephilim

[nephilim 0]

well u can i dont care:P

I would say go for it. Although many will say better to go play half life itself, i believe there are some features that half life or any other game does not have nor as robust as ofp1. A game is more than just eyecandy, for a game strives to challenge yer mental ability in everyway and anyway, be it the planing, execution, or even scripting and modelling. Many will derive personal satisfaction that we can overcome the limitations of this wonderous box we call the computer and extend beyond the horizons set by others bounded within the parameters of the bought game software.

You dont have to set up another drive to set up 02. There are more ways to skin a cat than one. Feel free to explore the many ways others have tried and succeeded and publish within this vaults with the key call 'search' to overcome the odds here to get what u wish for into ofp1 - a dream engine to realise your virtual gaming desires.

I only offer u a word of caution - create only what u want for yourself and not for others, for not many may share the enthusiam u have and u may suffer the disappointments of unappreciation. Share what u have for some who may not be able to create as u do or the time to do so will appreciate your efforts if u wish and do not take spamming hard. All the best!

I would prefered the government troopers from HL1(with those assassin chicks too) instead combine but thats just my opinion.

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

ok, i have just finished a combine soldier, will try and get a picture on here, it uses the KSK special force addon and PC Sas, i will change these as they do not show combine soldiers properly but as a quick job.

well, i dont really like HLË›. crap game in my opinion, but go for it if ya want to

I have a small problem with editing the textures as after i edit them and convert them back to .tga texview cant read them. Any comments?

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

Ok, i have tried implimenting a cop aswel but when i play the game with one, it crashes to the desktop, any ideas on what it may be?

[nephilim 0]

er wtf is this?

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

what dont you understand?

[gandalf the white 0]

Manticore, sometimes you do speak your mind eh?

The selections need to be selected very carefully, import a simmilar soldier (armor, pouches) and look at where the selections are, otherwise it'l look fucked.. btw, there where german troopers in HL2?

Here you can get some videos about a gravity gun (working one) and a beta too, enjoy!

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

thanks gandalf, yeh, the thing with the german flag, well that came on the KSK addon and i couldnt remove it because texview wont view my converted images. The face needs alot of work done to it. But, this was a quick try at it so i may try another later

[eestikas88 0]

that soldiers face was like a pigs one.

[nephilim 0]

i was just confused

the combine dudes look diffrent i think

sorry it wasnt meant as an offense

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

so, how can i make the face better? is it the filter on the front that is making it look like a pig?

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

Ok here is the troublesome config, can anybody help me find the reason why it crashes when i use the combine cop?

Easy!..you may have packed too much equipment for the soldier:-

magazines[]={M16,M16,M16,BerettaMag, BerettaMag,HandGrenade,HandGrenade,SmokeShell,Strokefist,Pipebomb

,Pipebomb};

Try using less equipment and test, eg:-

magazines[]={M16,BerettaMag,HandGrenade,,SmokeShell,,Pipebomb

};

But the problem is with the cop not the soldier, would this still help make it work?

Is there any way in which i can make the armour values for the combine bigger yet still have soldiers shoot at them?

[philcommando 0]

i notice this:-

model="\PC_SAS\completed.p3d"; for your combine soldier

model="\PC_SAS\completed.p3d"; for your combine cop.

Same model??

For amour values, just add in one more line to the unit config:-

armour = xxx where xxx is a number

that way, your soldier would not be a one shot deadmeat.

Another thing, the cfgpatches:-

no need to separate them out..just join together

units[] = {combine_soldier, combine_cop};

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

ok, cool, you can see i used your addon Philcommando . Also about the models they are both pretty much the same so far in this development. And with the armour values, the AI stop shooting at them if it is too high so what is the maximum armour they can have while still being shot at?

[Cribban 1]

I must say this sounds very interesting, rebels againt the combine on a shoreline island whould kick a**

[Tau Hammerhead 0]

thanks for your enthusiasm cribban, for the rebels, a modified version of a normal civillian with a lambda symbol on his/her arm

[Cribban 1]
