I've done a bit of scripting in Bash in one of my classes but I'm pretty much completely new to batch scripts. I would like to run the following command from a batch script:
code
java -cp "C:\path to external jar;C:\Path to Java project bin" main.MP3Edit [-p path_to_target_dir] [File1 ...]

by allowing the user (me) to input the path to target directory and the file names into the command prompt terminal (yes, I could read the input in the Java program itself but let's say I'm running someone else's program and can't change it).

I've written the following batch script using a few things I found on Google:
code
@echo off
set /p "arg=Input the path to target directory (defaults to current directory if left empty): "
if not [%arg%]==[] set "arg=-p %arg%"

echo Input file names one per line. If no file names are input, all files in the target directory will be used.
:loop
set /p "line=Input next file name (leave empty to end list of files): "
if [%line%]==[] goto run
set "arg=%arg% %line%"
set line=
goto loop

:run
REM java -cp "C:\path to external jar;C:\Path to Java project bin" main.MP3Edit %arg%
echo %arg%
pause


Now the problem with this is that the path and the file names can have spaces in them, which means each of them should in the command be surrounded by quotation marks. In bash iirc you can achieve that by using a combination of single quotes and double quotes in the script, but single quotes don't seem to do anything in batch. How do I get each argument separately properly surrounded by quotation marks?

Also incidentally, is there a way to make set /p recognize an empty string as an input? Because in the above example, if I remove the "set line=" command, the loop doesn't exit even on empty input because the set /p (first line of the loop) doesn't seem to do anything if it receives empty input.

Warning: More than 8 wadfiles are in use. (29)
This may be harmless, and if no strange side effects are occurring, then
it can safely be ignored. However, if your map starts exhibiting strange
or obscure errors, consider this as suspect.

Basically what it says, you need to reduce the number of wad files you are using. To find the list of wad files, follow this step: http://www.superjer.com/learn2.php

So, say I want to make a program that solves a Free Cell game that I have open in another window. So basically, what I'd want to do is:
- open e.g. the Windows Free Cell, get a random deal
- have my program read the deal from the Free Cell application
- have my program find a solution using for example a state space search algorithm like A*
- have my program execute that solution in the Free Cell application

Now my question is, how do I accomplish steps 2 and 4? How would I communicate with a 3rd party application without doing some fancy screen capturing and text/shape recognition?

Another more advanced example would be e.g. programming a 3rd party bot for a game (without an official API from the game's producers), where you'd need to repeatedly read the state of the game, and execute actions accordingly.
(disclaimer: I do not intend to use any information gathered here to program illegal bots)

You can use doors in CS 1.6 to trigger events when a new round starts because doors always close at the start of a round (or something to that effect). Doors are what you use to trigger the round counter.

In Source SDK you have logic_auto for that - an entity specifically designed to trigger stuff at the beginning of a round.
User
So I recently tried to port a map of mine from CS 1.6 to Global Offensive, and I've found out the Source SDK stuff is a mess. The current problem I'm facing is that math_counter apparently does not save its state between rounds, which means you can't do stuff like doors that only open every 3rd round any more (which was a part of said map).

I tried setting up an env_global to do this, but first off there was no env_global in the csgo.fgd (even though the base class for it exists in base.fgd) so I had to copy it from the HL2 fgd file, and now I found out that while it has a Counter property, it isn't actually functional. The wiki page says "There is an aliasing problem for this keyvalue. To make it work, simply change its name in the source code DEFINE_OUTPUT declaration."

Is there actually a way to access the source code to change an entity's hard-coded keyvalues?
Or if not, is there maybe a way to work around this to make a counter of any sort that would keep its state between rounds (is it possible for example to implement your own code into a cs go map)?

1)

The Right Way™ is to use version control. Any time you are doing anything with code, you should be using version control. Eventually you'll be sorry if you didn't.

Depending on what system you use, you should be able to add your shared code as a submodule, or just a checkout within the larger project. The version control will help you keep them all in sync when you invariably make changes. And it works across any number of systems and prevents catastrophic loss.


What's version control?

phoenix_r said:
Why do you want this bulk import in #1? Are you constantly importing a large group of the same or similar classes? Wouldn't it be more efficient to only load what you need? I can't actually answer your question, just debate itttt.

I have a project of self-made classes with generally useful functions, like string manipulations, matrix calculations, power function, etc.
They're categorized into packages according to their field - mathematical classes are in package maths, string related classes are in package strings, etc.

Now say sometime in the future I want to write a program that calculates the roots of the characteristic polynomial of a matrix. I'd like to be able to import the package maths so I can use its classes' functions in said program.

I don't really get what you mean by "bulk import". It's an importing of a single package, isn't that pretty standard? Like importing for example the package java.awt?
User
Down Rodeo said:
The directory structure follows the packages, so when you have jPackage.MyClass, you folders would be jPackage/MyClass.java. (Watch for capitals - it might not like that).

OK but how do I import it into a class in a completely different project and a completely different folder on the drive? Can I still import it simply with
code
import jPackage.MyClass
and it'll find it?

Or do I need to do something special with the CLASSPATH environmental variable or something?
User
1) I'm currently making a package with a bunch of generally useful classes (like a calculator class, a line sorting class, etc.) neatly stored inside it - let's call it jackPackage.

Now what I want is that every time I write a Java class, no matter what project/package/folder it's in, I can just write import jackPackage (or java.jackPackage or something like that) and it will import this package (much like the standard packages such as java.lang or java.awt). Where do I have to put it and do I have to do something special to be able to do this?



2) Let's say I have a huge array of integers that I know will all be of values between 0 and 15. Is it possible to make the elements of this array 4-bit numbers so as to conserve space?
Is there perhaps a bit primitive type that would allow me to create my own class with an arbitrary number of bits to save a number (I know a byte primitive type exists, haven't seen mention of a bit one though)?



3) Is there an advantage to defining getter and setter methods for an attribute over simply making said attribute public, provided that you want the attribute both readable and settable?

I went through multiple bitwise operators, such as left shift (infinite loop) - you cannot do right shift without changing more than one character, bitwise or and xor (infinite loop and no output), and even tried the unary operator ~ (which, like DR's solution, prints 21 minuses).

But in the end, this:
code
} while ( i % n );
appears to print 20 minuses.

Down Rodeo said:
OK, I realise I wasn't completely clear there; you probably got this but what I'm saying is that these are methods you should implement yourself, I do not know that they necessarily exist right now. Apologies.

requestFocus() is an already existing method, according to Google results. I haven't really searched for an isOpened() method, but even if it doesn't exist, it shouldn't be too hard to implement.
User
Down Rodeo said:
Ok, that should be easy: have if(isOpened()) { calc.setFocus() } else { calc.open() } or something similar. isOpened() should return a boolean indicating whether the calculator has, in fact, been opened before. EDIT: it's requestFocus(), I think.

OK, once I get all these errors out of the way, I'll try it.
User
Well, the way it is now is, I open the main window and then click on one of the four buttons on it. That opens another window with a certain tool (e.g. calculator), depending on which of the four buttons was pressed. Now if I press that same button again, it'll open another window with that same tool. I don't want that.

What I want is that if I press that button again, it restores the window that was opened by that button (if it was minimized) and puts it on top as the currently active window.

In other words I want the same thing to happen when I press that button, as if I clicked with my mouse on that opened window.

1) Already mentioned in chat for no adequately thought-through reason:
Eclipse gives me this warning in one of my classes:
Quote:
The serializable class does not declare a static final serialversionuid field of type long


I googled it, and it has to do with serialization (surprisingly...). Now apparently, I can simply ignore this, but is serialization something useful/important enough that I should read up on it, or can I simply ignore this warning?



2) I'm making a simple program that starts as a window (JFrame) with 4 buttons (each of type MyButton). MyButton is a subclass of JButton with an ActionListener that opens a new window when the button is pressed, depending on what title was passed as the MyButton argument. E.g. if you click the button titled Calculator, it'll open a new window with a calculator (another JFrame window that I'll be creating later).

However, I want it to work so that if that window is already opened, it doesn't open another one, but simply activates the already opened window.

So a) how do I check if a window is already opened?
and b) how do I activate that window?
Also c) what exactly does it mean if something is "visible"? If I setVisible(false) a window, does it close or just become invisible?
And if I setVisible(false) a text field, does it deactivate (ie. you can't write anything into it anymore) or does it just become hidden?

3) Is there a way to remove content from a window? Ie. the opposite of add(element).
EDIT: found remove(element)

4) How do I deactivate an element (not delete or make invisible, just make it gray and inoperative)?

Let's zombie-up this truck.

The README file says that to change height and width, that you should add -wNUM for width, and hNUM for height and to replace NUM with the size you want. I don't understand where to put it though.

The most similar I have found is in the Makefile under either FLAGS, LIBS or LIBSWIN, is it in there? If it is, do I have to download MinGW (make) and SDL-devel (MinGW) and then create the exe myself that way? I would really like to know.

If those are flags, you should probably use the command prompt with something like pixelmachine -w324 -h234

OK, so, my first question is what are these for? If they're for a homework question or such I am slightly confused as Wolfram Alpha says there are no solutions to the first one. I'm inclined to agree. Certainly there's no way to make it much nicer.

Second one: Wolfie. It's a bit complicated. 4th roots of 3? No thanks.

Yeah, the first one is a bit weird, since the roots of x and 1-x would imply that x is between 0 and 1 (otherwise the roots wouldn't be real numbers), which would mean those two square roots would also be between 0 and 1. I don't see how you could subtract two numbers like that to get something greater than 3/sqrt(5) (which is greater than 1).

This was kind of homework, it was a preparation for a test. Hopefully I don't get something like this in the actual test
User
2 (unrelated) inequalities I have to solve:

sqrt(1-x) - sqrt(x) > 3/sqrt(5)

and

sqrt(12-(12/x^2)) - sqrt(x^2-(12/x^2)) < x^2

I can't figure out what to do with the square roots. I tried multiplying the first with (sqrt(1-x) + sqrt(x)) but that just moves the square roots to the other side. How do I begin solving an inequality like this?

map name 'catpee' Happens to be the same name to other 2 accounts with 2 posts

catpee is what the map is called in superjer's tutorial, that's why people following said tutorial name their maps catpee.

@OP, from the compile log your map seems to be very simple (ie. does not contain a lot of brushes/entities), so if you're getting errors like allocblock:full, you probably did something weird with them. Here's some info on this error:

I usually find slimes by just wandering around at very low Y-levels. There's almost always one or two in sight from the bottom of the main mine shaft in New Castleton.

Well, the problem is that they can only spawn in certain chunks, so I ended up just downloading a mod that told me if I was in a chunk where they could spawn. I know it's cheating but in this world I'm really just playing to build some stuff so I don't really mind cheating a bit. I mean, I mostly play on Peaceful anyway, so it's not really a world where I'd be challenging myself a lot.

Anyway I now have my very own slime farm that took me a few hours to make. But it does bring the slimes to the surface, so I don't have to go down to the cave where they spawn every time, so I'm quite happy with it.

Well I was hoping that image would answer it for me, but it appears that it hasn't.

To make a short answer the same length, it's television, and those enhancers don't exist because it would be impossible.

Well, obviously they are very much exaggerated in those shows, just like everything else is, but such filters do exist in reality.

Rockbomb said:
I'm pretty sure it's a complicated process to even do as much as they can, but here's a couple things that I would imagine that those types of programs do:
1.) Look for lines/edges. If there is a row of pixels of all similar color, they would want to keep it like that when the photo gets enhanced.
2.) Look for blocks of color. If there is a spot on the image where the colors are all very close, keep it like that when the photo gets enhanced.
3.) When adding pixels, they prolly take the colors of two pixels, find a median for those two, and create a new pixel in between them with the color that was just calculated. That is of course unless that area has been determined as a line/edge, or a block of color, in which case the new pixel would be made to match said line/edge or block of color.

Yeah, I figured they'd break every pixel down into several dots, each of which would then have a color between the one of that pixel and the adjacent one.
But that wouldn't work properly because it would just make the image blurry in most vital parts (for example the text on licence plates). With those two checks for edges and blocks it might actually work.
User
It's safer to rotate and resize the brushes with the Transformation tool (ctrl + m).

Exactly.

So, you know how when you watch a show like CSI or NCIS they always have this photo enhancing software that allows them to improve the quality of an image when they've zoomed in to a certain part of the photo.

superjer said:
It seems to me there are multiple ways to interpret the sort-by-fields exercise. Usually, sorting by fields means sorting the lines using certain field(s) as keys, not sorting the fields themselves within the lines.

So the input would be for example
code
./LineSort.out 1 -df 3 -n
and the program would then sort the lines with the -df options by their first fields, and when two (or more) of them were the same, it would sort them by their numerically by their third fields?

Yes. And I strongly recommend limiting it to 2 fields (or so). Allowing unlimited sort fields would be extremely tricky and frustrating.

Still, the index category mentioned in the exercise lists lines with more than one page number with page numbers in numerical order like this:
code
expression, assignment 15, 19, 47, 191
but there aren't any two lines with the exact same phrase.
So another possible interpretation would be that I'm supposed to fold lines with the same phrase together? I.e. the above line being a result of sorting with
code
./LineSort.out 1 -df 2 -n
the following lines:
code
expression, assignment 15
expression, assignment 19
expression, assignment 47
expression, assignment 191

Kinda janky but perhaps try going back to DHCP and try to connect again. If that works you might be able to do the router-side configuration and then go back to the static IP. Also there may be something in your routybits saying DHCP clients only but I find that unlikely.

I tried connecting to 192.168.100.1, but it didn't work in any of the 3 internet browsers I used (Chrome, Firefox, IE). Am I missing something?

So I called them and they said they made a mistake. They didn't say what kind of a mistake, but I didn't really feel like pursuing the subject. Just happy I'm unblocked.

OK, I have a problem. My internet connection isn't working and I have reason to believe my ISP is to blame. Now it might be that the ISP's servers crashed or something, but it's more likely that they blocked us for some reason (it wouldn't be the first time that's happened - last time they did it because a virus on my mom's computer was sending out spam mail or something like that).

Before I call them I'd like to know if me trying to connect with a static IP and using port-forwarding software from http://portforward.com/ could be the reason for such a block (I might have also used a false username/password combination for the router, as I wasn't completely sure about it, it gave no errors though).

This is a warning, and only a warning, that you are using a larger sized texture in your level than some older video cards can handle. It is not a compile error, but it may cause player clients to sieze up if they have an older video card, or are in Software Video Mode. You must decide if you are going to abandon those players, or use another texture.

The problem is probably the name of the map then. Yes, that could be the problem.

hlvis is looking for the map catpee.prt and makes it into catpee.map (I onestly don't really remember) but if you don't have a map called catpee.prt it cannot make it into a catpee.map.

The .prt file is a portal file, it's created and used in the compilation process. It's the .map file you need up-front.

It's also possible that your map is fullbright, which is most commonly a result of a leak or not running hlrad.

It seems to me there are multiple ways to interpret the sort-by-fields exercise. Usually, sorting by fields means sorting the lines using certain field(s) as keys, not sorting the fields themselves within the lines.

So the input would be for example
code
./LineSort.out 1 -df 3 -n
and the program would then sort the lines with the -df options by their first fields, and when two (or more) of them were the same, it would sort them by their numerically by their third fields?

Btw can you recursively call main?
User
Down Rodeo said:
Re: sorting, sort once then reverse if needed?

That's how I first did it, but you need two functions for that as well, and the lines have to go through both if -r flag is used.

Anyway, the next exercise reads:

Exercise 5-14. Add a field-handling capability, so sorting may be done on fields within lines, each field according to an independent set of options. (The index for this book was sorted with -df for the index category and -n for the page numbers.)

I'm guessing this means that
code
./LineSort.out -df 4 -n 2 -r
would sort the entire file with the option -df, then sort the words (ie. sets of characters separated by spaces) in the 4th field of each line numerically and the words in the 2nd field of each line in reverse lexicographical order.
How would I define a field though?

In the book's index a line looks like this:
code
array, storage order of 104, 210

The first field is 'array, storage of', the second field is '104, 210'. So I guess a field is defined as a set of characters that's separated from the rest by more than a single space. Or maybe that's a tab in between.
User
New exercise from K&R, a program that sorts input lines in lexicographical order. It also allows a couple of flags that affect the comparing and the sorting part of the program.
It's an exercise that supposedly shows the usefulness of function pointers.

C code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

#define MAXLINES 100
#define MAXLEN 1000

int main(argc, argv)
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
char *lineptr[MAXLINES];
int nlines;
int strcomp(), numcomp(), dictcomp(), foldcomp(), dfcomp(), swap(), linesort(), revsort();
int (*cmpfunc)() = strcomp, (*sortfunc)() = linesort;
char *flag;
int fold = 0, dict = 0;

while (--argc > 0 && (*++argv)[0] == '-')
for (flag = argv[0] + 1; *flag != '\0'; flag++)
switch (*flag){
case 'n':
cmpfunc = numcomp;
break;

case 'r':
sortfunc = revsort;
break;

case 'f':
fold = 1;
break;

case 'd':
dict = 1;
break;

default:
printf ("Illegal option: -%c.\n", *flag);
break;
}
if (dict || fold){
if (dict && fold) cmpfunc = dfcomp;
else if (dict) cmpfunc = dictcomp;
else cmpfunc = foldcomp;
}

if ((nlines = readlines (lineptr, MAXLINES)) >= 0){
(*sortfunc) (lineptr, nlines, cmpfunc, swap);
writelines (lineptr, nlines);
}

else if (nlines == -1) printf ("Input too big to sort: too many lines.\n");
else if (nlines == -2) printf ("Input too big to sort: not enough room in allocbuf.\n");
else printf ("Input too big to sort - line too long.\n");

return 0;
}


That's the main part of the program (the whole thing is quite a bit longer due to the number of functions required).



The flags are as follows:

-n : Program sorts lines in numerical order from the lowest number to the highest. This flag was added in the book already, the rest were incorporated by me as a part of the exercise.
-r : Program sorts lines in reverse. This flag has to work in conjunction with any of the other flags.
-f : Program folds upper and lower case together.
-d : Program sorts lines in dictionary order (makes comparisons only on letters, numbers and blanks). It has to work with the -f flag.



The functions are:


strcomp() compares two lines and returns 0 if they are the same, a positive int if the first one is lexicographically larger (ie. if it comes after the second one in the alphabet), and a negative int if the first one is lexicographically smaller.
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if no flags that would change the comparison process are in effect.

numcomp() compares two lines numerically and returns 0 if the two numbers are the same, 1 if the first number is larger, and -1 if the second number is larger.
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if -n flag is in effect.

dictcomp() compares two lines lexicographically, but based only on numbers, letters and blanks, and returns the same as strcomp().
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if -d flag is in effect.

foldcomp() compares two lines lexicographically, but it doesn't make distinctions between upper and lower case letters, so that a and A appear adjacent, returning the same as strcomp().
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if -f flag is in effect.

dfcomp() combines dictcomp() and foldcomp(), returning the same as strcomp().
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if -df (or -d -f) flags are in effect.



linesort() sorts lines by comparing two lines, using the comparison function, the pointer to which was passed to it as an argument, and sorting them with shellsort from lowest to highest.
This function is used as sortfunc if no flags that would change the sorting process are in effect.

revsort() sorts lines in the same way as linesort(), except that it sorts them from highest to lowest.
This function is used as sortfunc if -r flag is in effect.



readlines() records the lines into allocbuf, using alloc() (also a function from K&R) and returns the number of lines (or a negative int if there is an error).

writelines() outputs the lines, after they have been sorted with sortfunc.



Now the program as I made it, works as it should, but I think it's way too complicated. It has way too many functions, and the fact that I had to make a whole new function just to incorporate support for a combination of two already existing flags (-d and -f), bothers me a bit.

I'd rather just use a few external variables (dict, num, rev, fold), initialize them to 0, and set them to 1 if their respective flags were used. Then I'd just use one comparison function and one sorting function, and change the proper parts of them to behave appropriately if any of the above external variables were non-zero.
Or is there some reason why using so many functions and passing them via pointers is a good idea?

So, why doesn't * work as an argument? The program works perfectly if I use 'x' as a sign for multiplication, but if I use '*', and write ./PolishCalc.out 3 5 * in the terminal, it outputs a lot of Illegal option errors, as if the * wasn't one of the possible arguments. Why doesn't it properly read a(n) *?

Yeah, I put 10 as a function argument instead of 10.0 (the base is of type double, I input an int).

I located (one of) the problem(s) in my Reverse Polish Calculator, it's my power function. For some reason it does some really weird stuff. Here's its code in a test program (with a few added printf tests):

C code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
double power();

printf ("%f\n", power (10, 1));
}

double power (b, exp) //integer exponents
int exp;
double b;
{
int i, sign = 1;
double p = 1;

printf ("%f, %d\n", b, exp);

if (exp < 0){
sign = -1;
exp = -exp;
}
printf ("%d, %d\n", sign, exp);

for (i = 0; i < exp; i++) p *= b;
printf ("%f\n", p);

return ((sign == 1) ? p : 1/p);
}

This returns the following:
Terminal code
0.000000, 134513883
1, 134513883
0.000000
0.000000

As you can see, the base is read as 0 and the exponent is read as 134513883.
Why doesn't it properly read the base and the exponent?

EDIT: nvm, problem resolved. The base is a double, I input it as an integer -_-



Now only the multiplication part causes problems. It prints out a lot of Illegal option messages with some random letters. Is the * character reserved for something?
If I use another character (x for example), it works properly.

I just made my first program in C from my own idea and it works!
It's a program that I made to calculate the number of blocks I need to build a pyramid in minecraft. And here it is:


C code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

int main (argc, argv)
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
char *flag;
int hollow = 0, ground = 0, even = 0, level = 0, edge = 0;
int number;

while (--argc > 0 && (*++argv)[0] == '-')
for (flag = argv[0] + 1; *flag != '\0'; flag++)
switch (*flag){
case 'h':
hollow = 1;
break;
case 'g':
ground = 1;
break;
case 'e':
even = 1;
break;
case 'l':
level = 1;
break;
case 'b':
edge = 1;
break;
default:
printf ("Illegal flag: -%c.\n", *flag);
argc = 0;
break;
}

if (argc != 1) printf ("Usage: Pyramid -h -g -e -l/-b number_of_blocks\n");
else if ((number = strtoint (*argv)) <= 0) printf ("Illegal number argument:\t%d.\n", number);

else if (level){
int nextblocks = (even) ? 2 : 1, nextsquare = nextblocks * nextblocks;
int nblocks = 0;

while (number > 0){
nblocks += nextsquare;
number--;
nextblocks += 2;

if (hollow && (!ground || number - nextblocks * nextblocks > 0)) //if pyramid is hollow and it's not a ground floor
nextsquare = 4 * nextblocks - 4; //n² - (n-2)² = 4n - 4
else nextsquare = nextblocks * nextblocks;
}

printf ("Length of the ground level's edge:\t%d blocks.\n", nextblocks - 2);
printf ("Number of blocks needed:\t%d.\n", nblocks);
}

else if (edge){
int nextsquare = number * number;
int nlevels = 0, nblocks = 0;

while (number > 0){
nlevels++;
number -= 2;
nblocks += nextsquare;

if (hollow && (!ground || nlevels > 1))
nextsquare = 4 * number - 4;
else nextsquare = number * number;
}

printf ("Height of the pyramid:\t%d blocks.\n", nlevels);
printf ("Number of blocks used:\t%d.\n", nblocks);
}

else {
int i = number;
int nextblocks = (even) ? 2 : 1, nextsquare = nextblocks * nextblocks;
int nlevels = 0;

while (i >= nextsquare){
nlevels++;
i -= nextsquare;
nextblocks += 2;

if (hollow && (!ground || i - nextblocks * nextblocks > 0)) //if pyramid is hollow and it's not a ground floor
nextsquare = 4 * nextblocks - 4; //n² - (n-2)² = 4n - 4
else nextsquare = nextblocks * nextblocks;
}

if (hollow && ground && (number >= 4 || !even)) //if -hge, nblocks has to be larger than 4
nextsquare -= (nextblocks - 4) * (nextblocks - 4); //set the level above the ground level to hollow

printf ("Height of the pyramid:\t%d blocks.\nLength of the ground level's edge:\t%d blocks.\n", nlevels, nextblocks - 2);
printf ("Number of blocks used:\t%d.\nNumber of blocks remaining:\t%d.\n", number - i, i);
printf ("Number of blocks you need to get for next level:\t%d.\n", nextsquare - i);
}

return 0;
}

int strtoint (ps)
char *ps;
{
int n = 0, sign = 1;

while (*ps == ' ' || *ps == '\n' || *ps == '\t') ps++;
if (*ps == '-' || *ps == '+') sign = (*ps++ == '+') ? 1 : -1;

while (*ps >= '0' && *ps <= '9') n = 10 * n + *ps++ - '0';
return (sign * n);
}


The flags are as follows:
-h : Hollow pyramid.
-g : Has a full ground level (only effective along with -h).
-e : Even number of blocks in an edge (by default the edges are odd numbers) - top level is 4 blocks instead of 1.
-l : The input number determines the number of levels the pyramid is to have.
-b : The input number determines the number of blocks in the edge of the ground level.
Without a flag the input number determines the number of blocks that you have available (the program calculates how large a pyramid you can build and how many blocks you need to be able to build an additional level).

I have yet to test it extensively, but it appears to be working.

Anyway, just thought I'd share this with the rest of the class.

I see. So they use a random number generator with the initial number set to your seed number to determine the sequence of random numbers that somehow determines how the map looks.
And I'm guessing these special seeds (404, Chuck Norris, Glacier) were incorporated as separate cases.

How's Intel's Core i5? Core i7 seems to be a lot more expensive.

This project presents the many breaches of copyright law that we see or hear of nowadays, focusing mainly on the issue of internet piracy. Internet piracy is now often regarded as the biggest threat to copyright protection, due to the sheer number of people who have (or still are) engaged in piracy.

As a part of my final exam I have to make a project about piracy. Among other things it has to include a survey with answers from 100+ people.
I want to make an online survey, then link people to it, but for that I need a server to host it on and some php syntax knowledge. I have asked a friend to host it on his site, but I still need to somehow get it to work properly online with user input.

This friend of mine knows php, and I'd ask him to do this for me, but I'd like to know how much I'm asking of him here, since I don't have a clue about any web-related programming, or how hard some things would be to implement (he has his own project to work on, so I don't want to ask him to do something that would take hours of work).

Basically what I want is a poll with ~10-15 questions, each of which has 3-6 possible answers (I would of course send all those questions and answers to him in a text file) with a checkbox next to them. Some would allow only one choice, while others would allow multiple choices.

The user would check the fields next to the questions, then hit a submit button, and the site would save his answers. At the end, I should get the poll results and the total number of people who did the survey.

Does anyone know of an already written reliable php (or javascript or whatever) script that would let him make something like this?

Unless you're using a very old (10+ years) C standard, you can declare variables (almost) anywhere you want.

So then you can do this in a program:

For this program it can be simplified to
C code
int type (char *ps)

It basically just checks the first element of the string it's given to see if it's a number or something else.

Well, in the case of "./rpn 3 5 +" there are four arguments, the zeroth being the program name and then your two numbers then the plus. You can just refer to them as argv[j] then use atoi on them, or something. There's probably a way to reason about how many numbers compared to how many operators you have. Or something similar.

Oh, you can't refer to the i'th element of an array, or your post goes all italic.

Yeah, my Polish Calc program first increments argv so that it points to the first actual argument, not the name of the program. Then it checks to see if it's a number or an operator.

If it's a number, it pushes it to a stack (using strtofloat, which is my version of atof).
If it's an operator, it pops the two top values on the stack (the last two numbers that were pushed there) and pushes back the result of the proper operation between them.

When there are no more arguments (argc equals 0), it prints the top value from the stack (which is the result of the whole expression if it was input properly).

At least that's what it's supposed to do. In reality it takes ~10 seconds to execute, then either prints 0 as the result (meaning the stack is empty), or prints an error.

When I tried the arguments 5 8 *, it printed a lot of 'Illegal option' messages with various characters from A to P (see the default branch of the switch in the first program).
When I tried 42 6 /, it printed 'Zero divisor popped' (see the '/' branch of the switch in the first program).
When I tried addition and subtraction it simply printed 0 as a result.

I'm guessing it doesn't properly read the number arguments for some reason. Now I just have to find out why.

Unless you mean how do you pass numbers to *your* program, in which case you do it just by writing the numbers in, separated by spaces. The console just passes your program exactly what the end user types. Well, separated into strings, but you get what I mean.

1) Linux terminal arguments:

That's the way to do it. I'm not sure what's wrong, but here's a simple program to test it: [...]

I tried to run the add program (in my case it's called Reverse Polish.out) with the line
"./Reverse Polish.out" 2 3 +
but it just drew up a new terminal line.

I'll run that test program when I get home.

superjer said:
Are you intending to ++ argv in the first case only?

Yes, because the program accepts the following inputs:
- detab 7 5 5 5
- detab 7 +5
- detab

So if an argument consists of only a number, it should go to the next argument. If not, it should stay at the same one.

superjer said:
You shouldn't really be ++ing argv at all, I don't think. It won't blow up or anything but once you've modified it you can't go back.

Well, I have the pointer *argvstart to save the initial position of argv. Won't that work?

A few new programs (I'll just paste them here so they're all in the first post):

Exercise 5-7. Write the program add which evaluates a reverse Polish expression from the command line. For example,
add 2 3 4 + *
evaluates 2 x (3+4).

C code
#define NUMBER '0'

int main (argc, argv)
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
double op, strtofloat(), pop(), push();

while (--argc > 0)
switch (type (*++argv)){ //determines whether the next argument is a number or something else

case NUMBER: //if it's a number, it pushes it onto the stack
push (strtofloat (*argv));
break;
//otherwise it does the appropriate operation, and pushes the result onto the stack
case '+':
push (pop() + pop());
break;

case '*':
push (pop() * pop());
break;

case '-':
if (type (*argv + 1) == NUMBER){ //unary minus
push (strtofloat (*argv));
break;
}
op = pop();
push (pop() - op);
break;

case '/':
op = pop();
if (op != 0.0) push (pop() / op);
else printf ("\nZero divisor popped.\n");
break;

case '%':
printf ("\nThe floating points will be truncated for the modulus operation.\n");
op = pop();
if (op != 0.0) push ((int)pop() % (int)op);
else printf ("\nZero divisor popped.\n");
break;

default:
printf ("Illegal option: %c.\n", type (*argv));
break;
}
printf ("\t%f\n", pop());
return 0;
}

#define MAXVAL 100 //max depth of val stack

int sp = 0; //stack pointer
double val[MAXVAL]; //value stack

double push (f) //push float onto the value stack
double f;
{
if (sp < MAXVAL) return (val[sp++] = f); //if there is room on the stack push float onto the stack

printf ("Error: stack is full.\n"); //if the stack is full clear stack and return 0
clear();
return 0;
}

double pop() //pops the top value from the stack
{
if (sp > 0) return (val[--sp]); //if there are values on the stack, pop the top one
return 0; //if stack is empty return 0
}

clear() //clears stack
{
sp = 0;
}


Exercise 5-8. Modify the programs entab and detab [...] to accept a list of tab stops as arguments. Use the normal tab settings if there are no arguments.
http://users.powernet.co.uk/eton/kandr2/krx1.html
See exercises 20 and 21 for an explanation of what entab and detab do.

Exercise 5-9. Extend entab and detab to accept the shorthand
entab m +n
to mean tabs stops every n columns, starting at column m. Chooose convenient (for the user) default behavior.

detab:
C code
#define TABSTOP 5 //default length between two tab stops
#define MAXLINE 1000 //maximum line length

int main (argc, argv)
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
char *argvstart = argv;
char line[MAXLINE];
char *pline;
int col; //current column number
int nextstop; //column number of the next tab stop

while (lineget (line, MAXLINE) != 0){ //get next line
argv = argvstart; //set argv back to the first argument
nextstop = (strtoint (*++argv) > 0) ? strtoint (*argv++) : TABSTOP; //find the first tab stop
for (pline = line, col = 1; *pline != '\0'; pline++){
while (col >= nextstop) //if a tab stop has been reached, find the next one
nextstop += (strtoint (*argv) > 0) ? strtoint (*argv++) : (*argv[0] == '+') ? strtoint (*argv + 1) : TABSTOP;
if (*pline == '\t') //if the character is a '\t', print enough ' ' characters to reach the next tab stop
while (col < nextstop){
putchar (' ');
col++;
}
else { //otherwise print the character
putchar (*pline);
col++;
}
}
}
return 0;
}

int lineget (ps, lim)
char *ps;
int lim;
{
int c;
char *start = ps;

while ((c = getchar()) != EOF){
if (--lim < 1){ //line is too long, skip rest of the line
*--ps = '\n';
*++ps = '\0';
return -1;
}
*ps++ = c;
if (c == '\n') break;
}
*ps = '\0';
return (ps - start); //line length counting '\n', but not '\0'
}

int strtoint (ps)
char *ps;
{
int n = 0, sign = 1;

while (*ps == ' ' || *ps == '\n' || *ps == '\t') ps++;
if (*ps == '-'){
sign = -1;
ps++;
}

while (*ps >= '0' && *ps <= '9') n = 10 * n + *ps++ - '0';
return (sign * n);
}


entab
C code
#define TABSTOP 5
#define MAXLINE 1000

int main (argc, argv)
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
char *argvstart = argv;
char line[MAXLINE];
char *pline;
int col; //column number
int nextstop; //column number of the next tab stop
int nspaces; //total number of consecutive spaces
int ntabs; //number of consecutive spaces covered by tabs

while (lineget (line, MAXLINE) != 0){
argv = argvstart;
nextstop = (strtoint (*++argv) > 0) ? strtoint (*argv++) : TABSTOP;

for (pline = line, col = 1; *pline != '\0'; col++){
for (ntabs = nspaces = 0; *pline == ' '; nspaces++, pline++){ //count the total number of consecutive spaces
col++;
if (col >= nextstop){
putchar ('\t');
ntabs += (strtoint (*argv) > 0) ? strtoint (*argv) : (*argv[0] == '+') ? strtoint (*argv + 1) : TABSTOP; //count the number of spaces that are covered by '\t' characters
nextstop += (strtoint (*argv) > 0) ? strtoint (*argv++) : (*argv[0] == '+') ? strtoint (*argv + 1) : TABSTOP;
}
}

while ((--nspaces) % ntabs > 0) putchar (' '); //print the remaining blanks
putchar (*pline++); //print the non-blank character

while (col >= nextstop)
nextstop += (strtoint (*argv) > 0) ? strtoint (*argv++) : (*argv[0] == '+') ? strtoint (*argv + 1) : TABSTOP;
}
}
return 0;
}


1) In the linux terminal, how do I run a program with arguments? Running it as
code
./blah.out -flag1 argument
doesn't seem to work.

2) Could someone check the syntax of the lines that increment nextstop and ntabs for me? I'm pretty new to these pointers to arrays of pointers to strings. Also the conditional expressions or whatever they're called (the ?: expressions).
C code

nextstop += (strtoint (*argv) > 0) ? strtoint (*argv++) : (*argv[0] == '+') ? strtoint (*argv + 1) : TABSTOP;

This is supposed to do the following:
- if the argument is a number, it increments nextstop by that number
- if the argument is a number with a + as the first character (see Exercise 5-9), it also increments it by that number
- if there is no argument, it increments nextstop by the default length between tab stops (I used 5 as the default).

3) Did I understand the instructions correctly? For exampe, which would be the proper input if you wanted tab stops at columns 5, 12, and 16:
entab 5 7 4
or
entab 5 12 16
I went with the first one in my programs.

How exactly is it you're trying to get Minecraft running? I'm not having any difficulties.

However, you really have to have the proper drivers available (if you have an ATi or nVidia card in there, you can get open-source Intel drivers from... somewhere). Then running minecraft is as simple as running
code
java -cp minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame
I don't even think you'd need to increase the memory available to it.

I had some problems because I have both sun java and some other (GIJ, I believe) installed. So I used something like
code
/home/blah/jre1.0.6_24/bin/java -jar /home/blah/.minecraft/minecraft.jar

It asked me to choose a name, then did nothing else. It didn't freeze my computer, it just left my terminal running some god-knows-what process, I left it for about half an hour, then CTRL+C'd it.

You know there's a 2nd edition of K&R, right?

I saw on wikipedia, yes. But I only have this one and can't be assed to search for an online version.

New problem, I have the function itoa (n, s), which turns an integer into its decimal string representation (so the number 123 becomes a char array with the elements '1', '2', '3', '\0').

C code
itoa (n, ps)
char *ps;
int n;
{
int i = 0, tf = 0, sign;
char *start = ps;

if (n == -n && n != 0) n++, tf++; //!
if ((sign = n) < 0) n = -n;

do {
*ps++ = n % 10 + '0';
} while ((n /= 10) > 0);

if (sign < 0) *ps++ = '-';
if (tf) *start = *start + 1; //!
*ps = '\0';

reverse (start);
}


Notice the lines marked with exclamation marks, those are the ones I added myself (the rest was copied from the book). The Exercise reads:

Quote:
Exercise 3-3. In a 2's complement number representation, our version of itoa does not handle the largest negative number, that is, the value of n equal to -(2^(wordsize-1)). Explain why not. Modify it to print that value correctly, regardless of the machine it runs on.


The problem here is the process by which the computer calculates the negative number: by calculating its binary complement and incrementing it by one. In the case of -(2^(wordsize-1)), this becomes C(10000...)+1, which is 01111...+1, which in turn is again 10000..., so you get the same number.

My solution works in this case but it's rather clumsy. If the number in question ended in a 9, I would have to make *start = '0' and *(start+1)++, and so on until the end of the string. Now obviously, in this particular case this isn't a problem, since 2^n, where n is an integer, can never end with a 9.

Still, is there a better, more general solution to this problem? For example, what happens if I have to implement this into a different function where the above is possible?

Btw, can *start = *start + 1 be written instead as (*start)++ ?
User
superjer said:
You don't need to worry about changing ps because it won't affect where it is pointing in the outer calls to the function.

Go ahead and mess with it all you want.

Oh OK, that's good then.

superjer said:
Do you have to use recursion for this? This is a really bad use of recursion. It adds a lot of confusion and complexity for nothing.

Well, there was an Exercise that required that I make a version of reverse (s) using recursion (this was before I even got to pointers). I didn't really know how else I would go about doing that.
Now I just took that same routine and replaced the strings and string indexes with pointers.
I guess I could just go ahead and write a new function from scratch.

EDIT: Done, here it is:
C code
reverse (ps)
char *ps;
{
char temp;
char *end = ps + strlen (ps) - 1;

while (ps < end){
temp = *ps;
*ps++ = *end;
*end-- = temp;
}
}


superjer said:
And is there a reason you are using the ancient 1978 style argument lists?

Not quite sure what you mean by that (unless you mean that I declare the variables separately, not in the argument list), but anyway, I'm learning C with K&R's book, which is about that age.


P.S. I'm quite bad at programming terminology, so you have to excuse me if I use some terms improperly. What's the difference between a routine, a subroutine, a procedure, a method, and a function?
User
I have an array indexing version of the function reverse (s) that reverses the characters in the string s (skipping the \0 at the end) and puts a new \0 at the end of resulting string s.
Now I have to change it into a pointer version. This is what I get:
C code
reverse (ps)
char *ps;
{
static char *ps1 = ps, *ps2 = ps; //this is line 57
int c;

if ((c = *ps1++) != '\0') reverse (*ps);
if (c != '\0') *ps2++ = c;
*ps2 = '\0';
}

Now, obviously this isn't right, and it returns the error:
AtoI, ItoA.c:57: error: initializer element is not constant
AtoI, ItoA.c:57: error: initializer element is not constant

The problem is that in the array version I used a static int i1 and i2, and used them as indexes of the string s.
Now I have to somehow initialize the two internal pointers to ps, so that I can reverse the string without changing where ps is pointing to, but I have to only do it once, not every time the function is called, otherwise the recursion won't work properly.

Is there a workaround for this, or do I have to make a completely different function?

c code

#define assert(expr) { if(!(expr)) SJC_Write( "%s(%d) Assert failed! %s", __FILE__, __LINE__, #expr ); }


It evaluates an expression, and if it is false, it will print the expression and the filename and line number. You can't do that with a function.

Can you give me a simple example of how this is used in the actual program? What kind of an expression are we talking about here?
Also what's that #expr?


superjer said:
You can actually define a new variable in a macro. Just make sure it goes out of scope at the end of the macro.

Oh, OK. That does make macros a bit more useful then. I thought defining a macro simply replaced all the occurrences of the macro's name in the file with whatever the macro was defined as (kind of like #define BLAH 2000 replaces all BLAHs in the file with 2000, except that with a macro the arguments inside the macro would be changed properly), and afaik you can't define variables in loops or statements.


Also, can you define a macro as #define macro (x, y) blah blah or will the space between the macro's name and the arguments (or whatever they're called in a macro) cause problems?

So, what exactly is the point of macros inside programs? Why wouldn't you just write a separate function? It seems to be the same, except that macros can't be made (or are harder to make) for more complicated things.

To avoid confusion, this is what I'm talking about:

C code
#define max(A, B) ((A) > (B)) ? (A) : (B)


as opposed to

C code
max (a, b)
int a, b;
{
return ((a > b) ? a : b);
}




EDIT: Also, how would you write a macro swap(x, y) that swaps the values of x and y, since you can't define any new variables in the macro? (You need a temporary variable to hold the value of one of those two variables.)



EDIT 2: Task: Write a macro strcopy(x, y) that copies the content of string y into x.
My solution looks like this:

C code
#define strcopy(x, y) while (x++ = y++);

This however requires that x and y are defined as pointers, not
strings. So my program looks like this:

C code
int main()
{
char s[MAXSTRING], t[MAXSTRING];
char *ps = s, *pt = t;

while ((*pt++ = getchar()) != '\n');
*pt = '\0';

strcopy (*ps, *pt);
printf ("%s\n", s);
return 0;
}

Is there a way to write this macro so it can look like this:

C code
int main()
{
char s[MAXSTRING], t[MAXSTRING];
char *pt = t;

while ((*pt++ = getchar()) != '\n');
*pt = '\0';

strcopy (s, t);
printf ("%s\n", s);
return 0;
}

You'd have to input the proper number in Team Index for the game_team_master, and then use it as the Master for the door entity.
I'm not sure this entity is properly coded for Counter Strike though, and even if it is, I don't know which number represents which team.

A func_train follows a predetermined path with a predetermined speed. It only allows a player to stop and start it, and even that only indirectly (via a button for example). This is what you use if you want to create an elevator or an advanced door.
http://twhl.co.za/tutorial.php?id=10

A func_tracktrain follows a certain path (railway) and only allows control over the speed and in a limited way the direction (forward, backward). In other words this is what you'll use to build a train (or a mining cart or whatever).
http://twhl.co.za/wiki.php?id=193

A func_vehicle allows the player full control over the speed and direction. It is what you use to create a car or a boat or an aeroplane.

You can make the grid smaller/bigger with [ and ].
When you make it smaller, you'll be able to make smaller blocks.

Be careful though, a small grid means it's much easier to make a leak when creating the outer walls of your map.

A little side note, I finally managed to find an old installation (or whatever the proper noun for this is) of TR 1 from an old computer of mine, and I copied it to a CD, then tried running it on my laptop. It didn't run in Compatibility mode, but I managed to get it to work in DOSBox. The only problem is that it runs at like 3-5 fps.

So, can anyone who knows something about DOSBox tell me if this is a problem that would be solved if I ran it on a better computer (the specs on this one are: Intel Pentium 1.4GHz processor, 768MB RAM, Mobility RADEON 9200 with 32MB VRAM, Windows XP SP2), or if there is any other way to solve it?

I checked for problems before compiling it says "Solid Entity (func_button) is empty."

I don't think it's your English that's the problem in this thread.

Anyway, the "solid entity is empty" error means that a brush was tied to an entity and then deleted. This for some reason doesn't (always) delete the entity itself as well, which means the brush entity has no brush.

To fix this, go to Map->Entity report and check for each func_button what it selects when you press go to. When it selects no brush, delete that entity and the error should be fixed.

After day three the urge for food is negligable. I've never done a water-only fast, but I've done mastercleanse and juice fasting before where you still get some nutrients but not many. Mastercleanse is pretty legit, you subsist off of a sort of lemonade - fresh-squeezed lemon juice, cayenne pepper (the hotter the better - good stuff will list the BTUs), and grade b maple syrup (grade b is less filtered than grade a, more of the 'good stuff'). It's important to remain (or become) somewhat active during your period of fasting to maintain metabolism. While you won't have the energy to run a marathon, a decent daily stroll or leisurely bike ride (1/2hr a day minimum, or less time of a more physically intense activity) is highly encouraged. GLHF!

Anyway my point is that my opinion on TRA is biased, due to the fact that it's a remake of TR1, which is one of the first games I ever played, and is to this day one of my absolute favourites (unfortunately I can't play it because for some reason it works at like 3 seconds per frame if I run it in DOSBox or in compatibility mode - I haven't tried on my better computer yet, though).

This is taken directly from the book by which I'm learning C. It's a part of a Reverse Polish Notation Calculator.

The getop() gets the next operand - it transforms a string representing a number into a number and returns it, or (if the operand is not numerical, such as +, -, a, b, etc.) returns the operand.

getch() and ungetch(c) are two functions that are used because getop() can't know it's read enough until it's read one (or possibly more) character too many. That's why the last read character (or more if it's possible) has to be pushed back to the input, so it can be read again.

Something like that.
User
C code
#define NUMBER '0'
#define TOOBIG '9'

getop (s, lim)
char s[];
int lim;
{
int i, c;

while ((c = getch()) == ' ' || c == '\t' || c == '\n');
if (c != '.' && (c < '0' || c > '9')) return (c);

s[0] = c;

for (i = 1; (c = getchar()) >= '0' && c <= '9'; i++)
if (i < lim) s = c;

if (c == '.'){ //collect fraction
if (i < lim) s = c;
for (i++; (c = getchar()) >= '0' && c <= '9'; i++)
if (i < lim) s = c;
}

if (i < lim){ //number is ok
ungetch (c);
s = '\0';
return NUMBER;
}
else { //it's too big, skip the rest of the line
while (c != '\n' && c != EOF) c = getchar();
s[lim-1] = '\0';
return TOOBIG;
}
}


C code
#define BUFSIZE 100

char buf[BUFSIZE]; //buffer for ungetch
int bufp = 0; //pointer to the next free position in buf[]

int getch()
{
return ((bufp > 0) ? buf[--bufp] : getchar());
}

ungetch (c)
int c;
{
if (bufp > BUFSIZE) printf ("ungetch error: too many characters\n");
else buf[bufp++] = c;
}


Exercise 4-6: This getch and ungetch do not handle a pushed-back EOF in a portable way. Why?
Decide what their properties ought to be if an EOF is pushed back, then implement your design.

My problem is the first part of this exercise. Why is a pushed-back EOF not handled properly?
OK, if EOF is a negative constant, you probably have to change the char array to an int array, but other than that.

P.S. Those s = c; are supposed to be s[ i ] = c; (without the spaces)
For some reason they don't appear as such :/

Well, to be fair, the essay is rather interesting and well written. But, why on earth did the author even think it was necessary?

I mean, when you say that a song like this has terrible lyrics that make no sense, I'll say "Why, thank you, Cpt. Obvious. Here, have this rock," and then you'll be all offended and I'll be happy because I'll have managed to offend yet another person on the internet.
But when you take around 1000-2000 words just to say that... That's like writing a trilogy about how it's a bad idea to run with scissors.

As for the song itself, the first time I heard it, I loved it.
Yes, that's right, I loved it. While I often think when listening to certain songs (including some that go on to become amazing hits *cough* *cough* Justin Bieber *cough*) Oh God, who made this song and why did he/she think it was a good idea to do so? But Tik Tok wasn't one of them, I liked how it sounded, and I knew that a lot of people would as well.
But even hearing it for the first time, it was obvious to me it wasn't a song I'd want to hear more than once, at least not without first consuming a half dozen pints of beer.

But anyway, my loving the song had nothing to do with the fact that I knew there would be people around the world who would hate the song (including me). And I don't think the "fans" felt any different. The so-called fans loved the song simply because it sounded good to them, I don't see why there would have to be some higher phylosophy involved.

And I can't believe one of the longest posts I've written in the last few months on this forum was about an essay on Tik Tok.

Rockbomb: that error means that for some reason, one of the compiling tools exited early. hlvis needs certain files to operate on; one of those (mapname.prt) is created by an earlier tool. So that file missing could even be caused by simply not running one of the compile programs beforehand. Or there could be some other horrendous problem that we've never seen before causing hlbsp to fail. Who knows.

Its source....

Is that ok? Cuz I'm making a Counter-Strike 1.6 map.

Well, it's actually pretty similar, only that you'd need to use more entities in 1.6 (the buttons don't have the 'Locked' property in 1.6 so it has to be simulated with the multisource or similar).
This is fairly similar to what I suggested (or was going to).

But what he does there would, as I understand it, let you guess for each digit until you got it, rather than reset the entire keypad after each X attempts (where X equals the number of digits in the pin code).

Nice find btw, fedex.

What fedex said would actually work (probably) but the number keys on the keypad should be big enough for the player to be able to press the number he'd want to press and not its neighbour.

The entity setup would be a bit complex probably, but I'm sure it can be done. One way would be to make each of the correct number buttons target a multisource, that would in turn target the multisource of the next number in the pin code.
Then the number keys would also target a trigger_counter, that would, after 4 numbers, deactivate all the number keys again (so that you could try again.

I'll elaborate if you want me too but there's probably an easier way to do this.

Favorite Food(s): Strawberry Millefeuille
Hobbies: Aromatherapy, origami, storm watching.

Bio:
Spunky, intelligent and cheerful, Cammi Falls is a Cinderella story of one college girl who dared to dream big. The 19-year-old student began practicing martial arts as a means of self-improvement both mentally and physically, and was for a short time under employment by Mr. Ribbon at his secret volcano layer and volleyball resort.

With a strong motivation for self-improvement, Cammi hopes that by honing her own skills, she can eventually help others to do the same. Of course Mr. Ribbon was more than happy to aid in her training, and would often attack Cammi when she least expected it to keep her combat skills and vigilance sharp.

While she has never said whither or not she believes Mr. Ribbon to be an overbearing, well-dressed, white collar psychopath, or whether she merely humors him, one can assume that there is a love-hate relationship between the two, sometimes bordering more on the hate side for Cammi.

Due to the nature of Pole Socking, and Mr. Ribbon himself, Cammi was critically hospitalized near the end of the 5th Olympium where she would remain for months.
However, despite this sidelining, Cammi stands alone as being the only person to best Ribbon in syringe combat, despite being in a coma.

After recovering from her grievous injuries, Cammi went on to successfully commanded over 30 training missions for the Red Team, and won 4 field promotions and 3 commendations.

Today, she returns for the 6th Annual Pole Socking / Storm Chasing Olympium to play a more active part, and discover for herself what the Will to Power really means�

Save your map to a floppy diskette (or whatever those round things are you kids use these days), and put it into an envelope. Go to your local post office and put a stamp on it, and make sure they stamp it with the date. Mail the envelope to yourself.
Now, if anyone steals your map, you can take them to court and bring the envelope with you. Present the envelope as evidence, and it will prove that you were the original owner/creator of said map, and you will win the case.
Wasn't being serious, but this is actually really good advice if you ever have a cool idea that you don't want anyone to steal and copyright before you get the chance to.

Hmm.. but how do you prove that you really mailed whatever it was you want copyrights for, not just some of your pubicare?

Idk what pubicare means (sounds like pubic hair to me), but anyway the post-office stamps all the mail with the date on it. And then it also becomes federal property while they are in possession of it, so its pretty good proof that you actually mailed it to yourself on that date.

I know but how do you prove that what you mailed was really what you claim it was? I doubt that the post-office writes the contents on the envelope, at least they don't here in Soviet Russia.

Ok, I'm working on this program that uses the rand function and the system clock to generate a random number, and one part of it is this line...
c++ code
int numberPicked = rand() % 100 + 1;


I don't really get what its doing. I know % is the modulus operator, but I just don't really understand this line.
The way I see it, it takes the value generated by rand (which hasn't been declared yet in the program, so that doesn't make much sense to me), then takes the remainder of that divided by 100, and adds one to that number. But that would make no sense at all, so I guess I'm reading it wrong...

Your statement (or whatever this is called) will choose a random number from 1 to 100.

The rand() will give a completely random number.
This number when divided by 100 will give you a modulus, which will be something between 0 and 99 (depending on what the last two digits of the random number were).
This modulo is used simply to find the last two digits of the number picked by rand().

Since you want a value from 1 to 100, not from 0 to 99, you add 1 at the end.

Note that this is only me guessing here, you should wait for someone who knows C++ to confirm this.
In pascal iirc the rand() would give you a random value between inclusive 0 and exclusive 1 so something like this would've been different.

From what I could see you have:
Plane with no normal
Coplanar plane
brush outside world

The easiest is brush outside world.
You either have a brush over the edge or too close to the edge.

Coplanar plane means you have a plane with more than one face.

Plane with no normal means that it really isn't a plane, its either a line or a point.


For the brush outside world you can simply move the brush in.

The plane with no normal you need to delete and start over.

The coplanar plane you can fix by deleting the extra plane.

P.S.
Coplanar plane and plane with no normal are almost always caused by vertex manipulation.

All true but the brush outside world error can also be caused by VM.

- Fixed an issue where the game window would minimize when running in windowed mode when it lost focus.
- Fixed an issue where the game window wouldn't center properly when it was created.
- Fangskin should now properly drop loot in Hell difficulty.
- Fixed an issue where auras were not re-applied to your mercenary after it was resurrected.
- Fixed an issue where if you had two items which provided auras to a mercenary and you unequipped one, the aura from the remaining
item never became active.
- Fixed an issue where the Paladin class runeword 'Principle' wasn't having all of its stats applied properly.
- Fixed an issue where the Paladin's Charge ability would become locked out if Holy Shield faded while charging.
- Fixed an issue where the Barbarian's Leap ability could become locked out if they were hit when they started to leap.


Specific changes/improvements

- Respecialization is now possible! Completing the 'Den of Evil' quest will now additionally reward 1 free respec which can be saved. Players who have already completed this quest should receive 1 free respec in Hell difficulty.
- Increased the drop rate of high runes.
- Support for blit scaling in windowed mode. The game can now be
maximized to the largest 4:3 resolution supported (hooray widescreen users).
- Some rare drop items now have an orange color. i.e. Runes and items required for Uber Tristam.
- Modified the gold bank limit to be a flat cap not bound by level.
- Removed the requirements to create a hardcore character.
- Greatly reduced the explosion damage dealt by Fire Enchanted monsters.
- Uber Mephisto and Uber Baal's summoned minions no longer give experience.
- Removed Oblivion Knight's Iron Maiden curse.
- Hellfire Torch Firestorm proc rate has been reduced to 5%.
- Users can now toggle the display of text over the Health and Mana globes by clicking on the bottom area of each orb.
- When creating a single player game, each difficulty button is now bound to a unique key: Normal 'R', Nightmare 'N', and Hell 'H'.
- The 'Enter Chat' Button in the battle.net waiting room is now
bound to the 'Enter' key.
- Added the windows system buttons to the game window (MIN, MAX, CLOSE).
- Added new command line parameter '-nofixaspect' which allows users to not fix the aspect ratio to 4:3 when maximizing in windowed mode. This lets the game 'stretch' to fill your monitor.
- Added support for '-sndbkg' command line switch. This enables sound in background.
- Added the following aliases for pre-existing command line options, '-nosound', '-window', and '-windowed'.


Revised Skill balance for Player Character classes

- Corpse Explosion - Increased base damage dealt from 60% - 100%
to 70% - 120% of corpses health.
- Poison Nova - Increased base damage by 15%.


Sorceress

- Firewall - Synergy receives 1% damage per point of Inferno and

The first bolded part is that each act boss has a chance to drop an essence (each one drops a different one, except for Andariel and Duriel, who drop the same one). If you transmute the 4 essences in the cube, you get another respec.

Btw that maphack of yours doesn't seem to be working anymore.

Well, 1 unit is about 1 inch, the player is 73 units tall and 33 inches wide.
Just don't rely on this unit->inch transformation too much or you'll end up making stuff in weird dimensions. Also you can put an info_player_start somewhere and its size should give you a very rough estimate of the players size.

Lightmap for Texture aaatrigger too large [11x32=352 luxels]; cannot exceed 324.
Most probably your .rmf, your .map or .bsp has been corrupted in some way. AAAtrigger textures are treated special, and should have a special lightstyle of 255, which means "no light data" = RAD is supposed to ignore them. If AAAtrigger is going through RAD, something is wrong, most probably corruption. (BTW: a luxel is short for "luminosity pixel" -- it's a fancier name for a light sample.)

Maybe using func_push?

4. How do you make the flashbang effect?
Some maps have flashbangs popping out of nowhere at a certain point and blinding you, like one of the NBnoobgames.

1) Yes, you can make it a prefab. Select the whole thing, then go to Tools->Create Prefab.

2) You can load the .map into hammer and then save it as .rmf.

3) Depends on what kind of whirlwind you want. You could make a simple one that raises you and spins you in a "circle" using func_push, yes.

4) My guess is it is done with sprites. Not sure about this one though.

You can use textract if the wads are embedded in the bsp file:

You need:
1) BSP file, randommapnamhere.bsp
2) Textract program --> http://www.superjer.com/files/textract.zip
3) Put them in the same folder
4) Open a command window there
5) Type: textract randommapnamhere.bsp randommapnamhere.wad
6) Then use your fresh new .wad

Hope this helps.


If the wads are not embedded, then they should be in your cstrike folder, I think.

Volume of Pyramid = ((32in * 32in) * Height) / 3
You can get the height using Pythagoras' theorem:
Height^2 = (34in)^2 - (16in)^2

Volume of Cone = ((pi * (13in)^2) * 8in) / 3

Surface of Pyramid = Base(see above) + 4 * (32in * 34in) / 2 = Base + 2 * 32in * 34in

Surface of Cone = Base(see above) + (pi * 13in * s)
You can get s again using Pythagoras' theorem:
s^2 = (8in)^2 + (13in)^2



Hopefully all of the above is correct.

I tried something similar to this with a 3-storey elevator with doors and ended up with approximately 100 entities. Though I did put the buttons inside the elevator as well, which complicated matters a lot.

Which entity's target are you changing with trigger_changetarget? Because I remember that I tried changing the target of the path_corner to the next stop and it didn't work, what I had to do was change the target of the func_train (the elevator) instead.

Try:

Although what you did should work too.

It didn't work because I foolishly copied two lines from your code:

code
a:link,a:visited {float:left;opacity:0.2;filter:alpha(opacity=20);} a:active,a:hover {float:left;opacity:1.0;filter:alpha(opacity=100);}


You can't align something that's already floating left.

But now I deleted the floats and the images get centered properly. However I get another problem:



In this picture I put my mouse over the curved pipe. As you can see the opacity on hover isn't working properly.
(the hint brushes are supposed to be next to each other but my resolution isn't big enough for that.
If I make the pictures smaller - ctrl+mwhl down - they are next to each other and both of them have
the same opacity problem)

EDIT: nvm, got it to work with someone's help. I just had to apply the opacity to every image separately.
The problem was something with inline elements (<a> being an inline element).

So, I have to make this website for school and I have something to ask.

I have a few images I'm going to turn into links to other websites. But I'd like a cloud (I have no idea what that thing is really called) to appear if a user puts the mouse over one of those images. So for example:


I'd like something like that cloud saying WWE wwe.com to appear when you hover over the picture, explaining which site the image-link will take you to (for example in the above case, I'd want the cloud to say superjer comics).

Q: How do I make my own textures?

You'll need to download and install program called Wally.

1. Make a .bmp of what you want you texture to be.
(The texture size needs to be multiplications of 16. Examples: 16x16 pixels, 32x16 pixels, 96x96 pixels, 80x64 pixels... and so on...)

2. Open Wally and go to File->New.

3. A window titled 'Create New Texture' will open. You can set only one thing in that window- 'Type'. Set the 'Type' to Half-Life Package [wad3] (.wad)

4. Drag and drop the .bmp you made on to your New Texture in wally. You can add as many textures as you want to your .wad file.

5. Save your file in you Counter-Strike directory.

6. Load the texture in Hammer. (Tools-> Options-> Textures-> ADD WAD.)

From the FAQ.
User
You have to make both of them:
- one brush with a texture that starts with a ! (like !blackwater or !water) and is either a normal brush or a func_water.
- one brush with AAATRIGGER texture that you then tie to trigger_hurt (by selecting it and pressing ctrl+t, then selecting trigger_hurt from the list).

It's in the zhlt.wad that comes with the zhlt tools.
User
You don't need the trigger_multiples. Try the following:

- table func_door_rotating named 'table'. Make it target 'master'.
- door func_door_rotating named 'door'. Make its master 'master'.
- func_button named 'master'. In the flags check Toggle. Put it somewhere players can't reach it and texture it with AAATRIGGER to make it invisible ingame.

The problem with this setup is that a button doesn't have a Start On flag. This means that (unless you're willing to do some more entity work for this) you'll have to make the door blocked at the beginning of the round.

slackiller said:
This is typically caused by having extremely large scales on faces, (typically "stretching" far above 10, usually 100+). Otherwise it almost always shows up on a 'check for problems' in Worldcraft as a 'texture axis perpendicular to face' error.
If you are using a newer version of Zoner's compile tools, the name of the texture, what # brush/# entity is involved, the coordinates of the problem face, and the amount of scaling should all be listed to make it easier to find and fix.

If the numbers given include a 0, such as 16345/0, it often (but not always) means the texture has gone perpendicular to the face. This usually is a result of rotating the brush, clipping, carving, hollowing or vertex manipulation, remember where you did that and you may find it faster.
If it is numbers like 3456/2 or 3/532 then it usually means a stretching texture problem. These often come from "fitting" a texture to a brush, especially thin brushes like signs or doors. Then a texture may get shrunk too far also, so do not go below 0.1 for scale or over 10 for scale, either causes frequent problems.
If the editor cannot find it for you, using the Big block elimination method or the cordon tool may be you best bet to figuring this out, unless you want to start ripping your level apart....

If the gun rack is an entity, the gun will fall through it. You have to make it a regular brush (or make another regular brush in the same space - clip brush might work too, I tried it once but I don't remember what the result was).
If it is a regular brush, make sure that the armoury_entity is high enough.

This is what I did, hope it's right. I put trigger_multiple under the spawns using an "AAtrigger" texture. Then I made a multi_manager and named it knife1. Then I typed in the trigger_multiple for the "Target" "knife1". Next, I created a game_player_equip and named it, "knife1" also. Finally, I set the game player equip to "Give knife" to yes.

Am I right?

No. That would trigger the multi_manager and game_player_equip at the same time. Do it like this:

1) trigger_multiple under the spawn. Target "multi1".
2) multi_manager anywhere inside the map. Name "multi1". Disable smartedit and add:
- key: "strip1", value: 0
- key: "equip1", value: 1
3) player_weaponstrip anywhere inside the map. Name "strip1".
4) game_player_equip anywhere inside the map. Name "equip1" and give knife Yes.

Do this for each of the T spawns (and put the trigger_multiples high enough so that players won't be able to walk/jump into them), but change the numbers in the names of the entities ("multi2", "multi3", etc.)
User
In the multi_manager's properties do the following:
disable smartedit
press add
write the name of the player_weaponstrip under key and 0 under value
press ok
press add again
write the name of the game_player_equip under key and 1 under value
press ok

??? (optional)
profit (optional).

Make a trigger_multiple under the spawn, make it target a multi_manager, which in turn targets a player_weaponstrip with the value 0 and a game_player_equip with a value of 1.

Yeah, the -chop flag will mostly solve this problem but it can cause problems with lighting as it says in the slackiller quote I posted.

Did you select the entity tool (the white light bulb in the left-side toolbar or shift+E, I think)?

Slackiller said:
When hlrad runs, it takes all the visible faces in the game, and divides them into sections called patches. These patches are the textures used as the lightmaps for the world. There is a hard limit of 65535 patches that hlrad can deal with. By default, a 64x64 game unit chunk of space is the size of one patch. If the texture scaling (not texture size) is larger or smaller, it will directly affect the lightmap size as well. This means a texture with scale of 2, will have at best 1/4th as many patches as a texture with a scale of 1.

Putting a 'box' around the level to protect from leaks is the most commmon cause of this error, beyond excessively large maps. The box causes vis to keep the faces on the outside which would normally be thrown away. These faces are then required to have lightmaps. Worst case, is that putting a box around the level will usually cause an extra 40-80% more lightmaps to be created than necessary.

Barring having a box, the other cause is large maps. The fixes are varied but can only help so far.

* Remove any "box" from around your level and fight the leak leak leak war the right way.
* If you have not boxed in your level, then the #1 fix is running HLRAD with the -sparse flag - but compile will be slower.
* Using -chop values larger than the default 64 for hlrad will cause the light patches to be larger. However, for values larger than around 96 the map's lights start looking bad, and will more prominently show the 'staircase' effect on shadows.
* Using a larger scale on large textures (dirt, rock walls, concrete) will help those large surfaces consume fewer patches for lighting.

Did you make a box (skybox) around the whole map?

missing [ in texturedef

The 'missing [ in texturedef' message can be caused several ways:

One or more faces has no texture, or the texturename is just made up of spaces. Check for problems in WC 3.3/Hammer should detect them as 'invalid texture' messages.

The texture name on one or more faces has a space in the middle of the name somehow (Textures are not allowed to have spaces in their names)

You are using Worldcraft 2.0 or 2.1, and the worldspawn has a key/value of "mapversion" "220" If so, remove it.

A Worldcraft 3.3 map was imported into WC 2.1 or 2.2, same problem as above.

A Worldcraft 3.3 map was imported into Quark, also the same problem :)

The map is in Worldcraft 3.3's .map format, but the "mapversion" "220" is MISSING from the worldspawn (this is really rare).

Give the door a name, make a func_button and target the door's name with it.

As for the models you can use the cycler entity.
User
Alright, the first possible solution is making a sky and a floor for the entire map like this. This might cause some lag (although it worked fine for me) and might look a bit weird. Of course you can also make and texture the brushes a little differently to make it look better but you mustn't be able to see any of the outside area from inside the map.

The second solution is blocking only the part between the two rooms with clip windows like this. That way no entity will be exposed to the outside void. Again use textures different from my white (you can even use the sky texture). This will however prevent the players from seeing the rest of the map through these clip windows.

The third solution is the simplest and most likely the worst one, simply deleting the clip windows and replacing them with solid brushes like this. This will solve the problem but will remove the whole point of the clip brushes which was that you could shoot and see other players across the map.

Think of what would look best on your map and possibly think of your own solution (or a combination of mine) that will look better than all 3 that I've posted.

On a side note you'll have to put a few more lights into your map, unless you want the players to have to play the map with a flashlight (the map was probably fullbright before because of the leak so you didn't see the lighting problems).
Also I fixed a couple of 'malformed face normal' errors (use the alt+p check for problems in hammer to scan for possible errors).
Truck
User
Nvm, disregard my post about reinstalling. I get the same error. Can you post the .map or .rmf file of this map?
User
Look. A leak error appears whenever an entity is not completely blocked from the outer void by solid world brushes.

So if you can see any of the black outer space (in hammer) from inside your map, even the tiniest bit, that will cause a leak.

Clip brushes, origin brushes, null brushes and aaatrigger brushes do NOT count as solid world brushes. So in your map the upper parts where the clip brushes are used as windows of some sort with the outside void between, will cause a leak.

The reason there is no leak if you don't put any entities into your map is that there are no entities exposed to the outside void then.

If I have some time later, I'll try to edit your map a bit and upload it.
User
Your a faggot, gtfo

Now that I got that out of the way, making a clip brush around the map wouldn't get rid of the leak problem, the outer walls cannot have a clip, origin, null or aaatrigger texture. You can however make a sky over your map like this (the blue part is the sky - brushes with the sky texture).
Truck
User
Put the armoury_entities above the ground, the weapons will fall down to the ground anyway.
As for the pointfile, start at the entity that was given in the error report and then follow the line until it leaves the map. That's where the leak is.

In that case I'd try reinstalling counter strike. Also upload the .bsp file of your map and I'll try playing it to see if I also get an error.

What Cloud was trying to say was go to 'map' click 'entity report'
scroll to your light(s) select one click 'go to' and see if its outside your map repeat for all 'light' entities until you find it.

The light entity mentioned isn't actually the problem (well, it can be in the case that it's outside the map). It's merely a 'helpful' pointer to the actual leak, being the closest entity to the leak's location. Of course "closest" is relevant, the light can be quite far from the leak if there are no other entities in between.

So first of all, make sure you haven't put any entities outside of your map.
If you haven't, then make sure your map has a floor, a ceiling and walls to seal the map without even the tiniest hole. You should not be able to see any of the black void outside from anywhere inside the map.
If you can't find anything, load the pointfile and follow it to the leak as it says in the FAQ.

If you really can't find the leak on your own, upload your map to speedyshare and we'll have a look.

Ah, the setup is complex due to the helpful fact that ambient_generic can't have a master.

You could just make it so that the entitiy-reseting door would target the button that would in turn target the ambient_generic but that would make the sound start playing at the beginning of the round if it wasn't triggered in the previous round so it's not the best way to solve the problem.

You'd need to do some trigger_relay and multisource work, I think. In any case I'd say the setup is complicated.

I'd say they ARE overpowered, just not incredibly overpowered. The important thing is that they are really fun and take skill to use. Someone who hasn't figured out how to use any of them yet, or who doesn't even know they exist (as the game never informs you about them) has very little if any chance against someone who does. But it seems appropriate that someone who doesn't know what most of the attacks are should probably lose. Once you've at least played against them and know how to counter or dodge them you don't have to use them to be able to win.

So basically in JO if you're a noob like me, you can't win. See, at least in JA I can win against anyone except the guys who can actually play the game and those are rare.

I have one very important question Mate. Have you played both extensively?

No, I have not. As a matter of fact the only thing I did on JO was reach a room that led to many other rooms and each of them had a different color sign above the doorway in the first level of SP. Then I had to replace my computer due to serious hardware malfunctions and never got around to installing it again.
aaronjer said:
"Hooray! A new Jedi Knight game! Now with 75% less content!" WHY DOES ANYONE PLAY THAT GAME?!

Meh, the single player was fun while it lasted. On jedi master difficulty of course, the other difficulties are way too easy. But it was way too short, I finished it in about 2-3 days on master diff, plus the vs. Jedi fights are too easy compared to the fights against some other enemies. The only tough non-boss fight against a lightsaber user was the second time you fight a Reborn Master (which is right before you come outside to the valley of korriban or whatever that place with all the sith tombs is) because you can't grip-throw him of a ledge. Then again you can completely skip that fight by simply moving to the next level (which is the outside) but I still fought him to at least make that entire level mildly interesting.

I might install JO on the other computer and try out the MP (and maybe SP as well) when I finally manage to get to it, as for the laptop, if JA didn't work properly, JO probably won't either.

There is no way to tie entities together if you're not using the Spirit mod.
The glass panel on the door is possible but the glass can't be made breakable.

You apparently missed the problem. The issue is that in Jedi Academy every fucking move you make consumes force power. You swing up, force power down 25%. You swing sideways? Force power down 25%. You spend most of your time running away and recharging force power. It's fucking stupid.

That's not really a problem since most servers I play on use the /set g_forceregentime with a very small number so the force power regenerates faster than you can possibly consume it.

aaronjer said:
In Jedi Outcast none of the lightsaber moves use force power. Not even the instant kill jump attack, front kick, side kick and jumping decapitate... overpowered or flamboyant as they are. In JA they TOOK OUT all the cool moves, like the ones I just mentioned. It has less moves, and the crappy ones that are left use huge piles of force power.

So basically the problem with JA is that there are no incredibly overpowered moves?

aaronjer said:
...and no force powers? Then how are you supposed to push noobs off the many precarious catwalks when they jump at the wrong time? That sounds stupid.

No force powers because otherwise the duels become boring grip matches which means jumping around trying to grip your opponent into death. Also on tatooine, which is the most often used map, there are no precarious catwalks.

Wait, that's not all.
Test 2 done with even more interesting results:

I changed the func_walls into normal brushes, recompiled and again tried the weapons. This time I could only kill him with the awp and the scout.

One might argue that it was because you can't see through solid brushes so I had no way to aim but I spawned him so that he was directly in front of me on the other side of the two walls at the beginning and I froze him so I know I was aiming well. And I shot a lot of bullets with every one of the weapons then killed myself and spectated him and his health was at 100.
User
Test 1 done with shocking results:
I made a test map with a terrorist spawn, a ct spawn and two translucent func_walls in between. I spawned a bot and froze him then tried out all the weapons. I managed to kill him through both func_walls with the following weapons:
Desert Eagle
M249 machinegun (the only machinegun - the name depends on the version)
Every single rifle available.

I might do another test with normal brushes now instead of func_walls to see if it changes anything.

Well you could cover the entire map with a trigger_teleport and set the info_teleport_destinations where you want the Ts to get teleported but then you'd have to properly set up a game_team_master as the teleport's master entity which I'm not really sure how you can do (I have done it once but I didn't test it so I can't really be sure whether the way I set it up works or not).

This all would be easier if the Ts at that time could only be in an area that wasn't accessible to the CTs in which case you wouldn't need the game_team_master.

this may be wrong but... i think if you put 2 walls with a pixle of space between them and make the walls glass txture...





onley bullits treavel threw 2 walls at s time

An awp bullet will go through 2 walls afaik. But anyway, make 2 (or 3) thin blocks with any texture (preferably one that looks like glass), select them and tie them to func_wall. Set the Render mode to Texture and FX amount to something lower than 120 (the less you set, the more translucent the window will be).

Download the map from the tutorial and load it into hammer. Then compare the func_train from that example map to yours and see where yours is different.

If you can't find the problem, upload your map to speedyshare so we can have a look at it.

I know you guys have answered this numerous times but i cant seem to find a way to make the sliding doors go UP. I mean I got it working but it only slides one direction.

In the entity properties (alt+enter when you have the door selected) there's a little compass and under it a little box. Set the direction to Up there.

Ok I have a little bit of a problem. I cant seem to find my game_player_equip entity. am I suppose to download something or what? Because I cant seem to find it using my entity tool.

It should be in the point entity list (press shift+e and the list should be on the right side of the hammer window). If it isn't in the list (or if there's no list at all), you probably haven't set up the fgd properly. So download the fgd from this site's tutorial and in hammer go to tools->options->game configurations and under game data files add this fgd.

Mate de Vita said:
First of all check that you made your map with a ceiling, floor and at least 4 walls (no black void should be visible from inside the map, not even a little bit of it).
Next see that you didn't insert an entity so that it touches the outside void or that it's outside the map completely.
And also make sure that you don't have any brushes textured with CLIP or ORIGIN texture outside your map (or touching the outside void).

And this is sort of unrelated, but are these errors normal? (of course, NO errors can be considered normal.. but are these acceptable anyways?)

I don't really know about Source but in the goldsrc games those errors are acceptable, they just tell you that you specified a property that you don't use (this can however cause problems in some cases - for example with some entities' names and targets).

In other words, you should be able to play your map but you might encounter some funny entity behavior (like doors not opening, buttons being unpressable, func_breakables not breaking etc.).

You can just make the func_door's Health property non-zero, I think. The higher the number you put in, the more damage it will take before it opens (if you want any gun to open it in one shot, put 1 here).

Actually I meant your .bat file, not the compile log but now I see you're not compiling using one. Read this and compile as it says there.
User
In the F.A.Q. Down Rodeo said:
Error: More than eight wadfiles are in use

Like the damn thing says, more than eight wadfiles are being used. Since the compilers store the directory locations in a fixed amount of memory using too many wads can cause a lovely buffer overflow! So while it might say in the log "this may be harmless" it doesn't necessarily mean it. In fact if it warns you of this and your map has failed to compile consider this as suspect. Remove them and try again. Seriously, the number of times we've all seen this error. If you have, say, nine wads and are using one texture from each of them, you will need to merge wads.

Q: How do I merge wads?
1. Download and install Wally (yes, it's the same program you are told to install for making your own wads).

2. Open Wally and from the drop-down menus on the top, go to Wizard-> WAD Merge.

3. You can use either the Add WAD or the Quick Add, depending on your needs. (You can open the Add WAD to see what it has to offer)

4. Set all the other options to suit your needs (WAD type should be WAD3) and hit Go.

The first and third dreams that I had last night I don't remember anymore I woke up and went back to sleep too many times i dont think i was drunk I only remember that they were along the same theme, continuations of the same dream but with different atmospheres That being said, the second dream shifted from the ordinary, indifferent tone of the first dream into a more ominous nightmarish dream I believe that the first dream ended with me in the parking lot of Taco Bell The sun was gone, either behind the storm clouds that were building or below the horizon (although there was no sunset the time was some time in the evening though) People that I don't know in real life or distinctly remember were talking to me as I started my car, but I have the impression that the words weren't exactly friendly For some reason, my car went over the curb and into the ditch that separated the Taco Bell from the street and turned to the left as it did Suddenly, I was facing the cars instead of the street like I was supposed to This way, it was a lot easier to pull back into the parking spot, which I did I think at this point I simply became tired of the dream and took control by shifting the position of the car with my thoughts Since the dream was an unpleasant one, I chose to wake up at this point to a horrible migraine, which may be responsible for the mood shift in my dream

So, since the ladder restart is coming, that means that my ladder chars are going to become non-ladder, keeping all the ladder items, right?

So, should I keep my infy and forti till after the reset and sell them on non-ladder (since they're ladder-only runewords, they're bound to be worth more on non-ladder, at least if I wait a bit after the reset) or even buy a few more to resell them after the reset (the USWest nl pc says infi is 70-90 fg)?

Just finished CoD 4 singleplayer a few days ago and I have to say I was impressed.

What I really liked about it though was the atmosphere of the game, to which the music contributed a lot.

Have just started multiplayer, I like it so far but it takes a bit of getting used to and you need to level up a bit (or a lot for P90) to unlock the good stuff.

If you mean so you can't walk through it, you need to add a hitbox to it in your modelling program. How exactly you do that, I have no idea.
