Now, onto the problem. Ive got to construct a Half Life 2 mod for some university work, just a basic one with a few set design goals. Anyway, im not sure if its me or Hammer but somethings just not working.
Firstly: The Entities are not spawning, well... some of them anyway.
Linky To Imagey
Its really annoying as I cant fully test sections of the map if half of what I need to examine isn't there!
Secondly: Level Transitions aren't working. As seen in the images, when I head down the corridor, it spawns me in the sky!
From here...
... To here.
The triggers and landmarks are set up correctly, yet in map 2 I fall from the sky in the middle of the map upon spawn. Also, when I use noclip to get inside the corridor and run back through the trigger in that level it spawns me in my first map, to the left of my info_player_start entity. I should probably point out that to the left of that entity is a wall.
Thirdly: My favourite problem. The good old random entity spawn
After the level transition, i turn around to be greeted with a sight that looks like it belongs in the Matrix (remember the doors?).
No Seraph Though
Ive never had these problems before in Hammer and it seems that no one else is (apart from one of my flatmates who is also going mental about it).
If any Hammer experts (or novices, i'm not picky) have a solution please please please let me know, as the only advice ive had so far was "Have You Restarted Your Computer?". The sooner I fix these problems, the sooner I can keep working on the maps as its currently distracting me from my 3ds max project!
