Can anyone tell me why dev_overview doesn't work with Blue Shift?

Heh, apparentally not. I'm not too sure many people have it, and I know of no one who's ever mapped for it. You should be able to just make the overview files in standard HL though. Just move the map to the normal valve folder and run it in HLSP through the console. You should be able to get the overview screenshot you need (that is all you need, right?)

Wasn't Blue Shift released before Valve had implemented the overview function? [addsig]

since blue shift is an expansion of OP4, you should get an upgrade the same time you do for OP4 i would imagine.. [addsig]

SORRY CASH CAR STAR, I DIDN'T SPECIFY, I WANTED TO MAKE OVERVIEWS OF THE ORIGINAL LEVELS FOR BLUE SHIFT (I'M NOT MAKING BLUE SHIFT LEVELS) I'M TRYING TO MAKE A MAP OF THE COMPLETE BLACKMESA FACILITY BY USING OVERVIEW1 FROM ALL OF THE MODS

You can still move the levels into the valve directory and open them up in single player halflife. You may need to extract them from the pak file first, though. Just copy the wads, models, sprites and sounds too and nothing should crash; maybe a few entities won't initialize but nothing major.

And what's with the all caps?

blue shift is as hl.exe v.1100 and, the overview command was implemented in hl.exe v.1110 ..... (or not? ) [addsig]
