Here's what i want to accomplish: When the map starts up there will be a black screen that says what to do, which after a few seconds fades to the game. (like in the antlion map). you beat the map only if you kill all the combine soilders. How do i do this?
Also, how do i get the hud display? when i run a map, i have no hud (health, ammo left, etc.)
Thanks.
In map properties find an option for chapter title message and also set "display game title" to yes. Im pretty sure that'll work.
As for the HUD you simply need to give gordon a suit (item_suit). Put it on his spawn point for it to start instantly. (there may be another way but thats all i know
)
now how do i make it so that the level ends once all the guards have been killed?
you can't make the game close, but you can make a game_end entity...I only used it once and it didn't work, so good luck.
::EDIT:: And select all the combine and go to output, and do , once all are dead, target entity: game_end(whateveryounamed it), showmessage.
It'll look similar to that. I am new to Hammer 4.0 if you can't tell.
Or... to make it so when you kill all the guards the level ends...
You could use the entity "Math Counter" and after the counter hits the max ammout the level ends.
To make it so the counter adds up you would have to go into every combines output and make it so OnDeath > MathCounter > add > override perimitor 1.
Something like that! (note, my spelling sucks).
