it works! thanks a lot. sprinkles, can you give me your email? so that i can ask you faster and easier if i have problems in hammer mapping.

I made a block with toxicgrn textile and I tied it to trigger_hurt entity. But the textile is invisible in game. How to make it visible?

can i ignore the leak?

hlbsp: Error:
A LEAK is a hole in the map, where the inside of it is exposed to the
(unwanted) outside region. The entity listed in the error is just a helpful
indication of where the beginning of the leak pointfile starts, so the
beginning of the line can be quickly found and traced to until reaching the
outside. Unless this entity is accidentally on the outside of the map, it
probably should not be deleted. Some complex rotating objects entities need
their origins outside the map. To deal with these, just enclose the origin
brush with a solid world brush

If we use the player_weaponstrip point entity, players won't have any weapons?

thanks. problem solved.

thanks for the answers. sorry to bother you, but i have 1 more question..
what is .ztmp files for?

Thanks for your answers.



No other entities that can heal players other than healthkits?




I wanted to edit the map de_dust2 and I need the original textures for it...

I have 1 more question, hope you can help to answer it:
How to we know that which .wad files belong to which maps? eg. de_vegas for fy_iceworld

1. why do some maps come with a .res file and what is the use of the file?

2. why do some maps come with a .wad file? the texture of the map can't be stored in the map?

3. how to make players without pistols or knives at the beginning of the game?

4. what is the entity for an object to make it has an ability to heal players?

5. why we can't steal the textures of some maps using textract? eg. de_dust2
