>IMPORTANT< Custom content being deleted

Post by commander fury »

Valve made an update that deleted ALL the custom content, it may not happens to everyone but it does to some, so, to make it clean, be sure that you make a copy of your hl2mp folder BEFORE launching the game, just in case your custom content get deleted.
Gaben has apperently fucked the things up again.

Whatever, here's a link to get all the custom content of Area 51 back :

Wishin' you a good game and a good day y'all ;) .

OMG Thank you, I just launched the game and lost all my stuff from my laptop, but I don't have any custom things like huds and cfgs and all that on my laptop. Its all on my computer, so I need to make a backup of my stuff now on my computer so I don't lose it. Thank you for the heads up.

YOUR STUFF AIN'T DELETED.
When you are in the half-life 2: deathmatch folder, you will see, a folder called "download", WHERE ALL YOUR "cough cough*hax*cough cough* FILES WILL BE THERE!!!1

Goomba just read the topic on comphl2. XDD



I saw Daddy requesting the hud, which was used in this video, so here it is.

HUD FROM VIDEO (BLUE):
http://www.mediafire.com/?x03us0docgwdy6u#!

SAME HUD BUT IN WHITE:
http://www.mediafire.com/?mmu5fsa4999s38m

You'll need winrar to install it
How to Install:
- Extract the file to your desktop
- Now you'll have a folder called "Kez's HUD WHITE or BLUE"
- Open the folders, until you see two folders called:
- resources & scripts
- Take these two folders, and put them in to:
- Steam/steamapps/common/Half life 2 deathmatch/hl2mp/custom/my_custom_stuff < Myback read the update changes and told me about this.
- Place them here and if anything comes up, and want's to overwrite something say yes.

/// Other things you'll need to do:
----ONLY WHITE USERS----

For the people who want's to use the white one, You'll see another folder with scripts, and resources called: "NEED TO INSTALL THIS FONT"
Open it right click on the font, and choose Install.

----BOTH HUDS----

Open up the resources folder and you'll see alot of shit, just open the folder called FONT, and select all of the fonts, right click on them and press install.

WARNING!

The hud decreases your chat box size, which can be fucking annoying, to avoid this goto resources/UI and throw "BaseChat" away.
Crushed dreams and broken hearts!

Just to make it clear, readme.txt states that

Code: Select all

	hl2mp/custom/my_custom_stuff/   <<< This subfolder will be added as a search custom
	hl2mp/custom/my_custom_stuff/models/custom_model.mdl
	hl2mp/custom/my_custom_stuff/materials/custom_material.vmt
	hl2mp/custom/my_custom_stuff/materials/vgui/custom_ui_thing.res
	hl2mp/custom/some_mod.vpk       <<< This VPK will be added as a search custom
	hl2mp/custom/another_mod.vpk    <<< This VPK will be added as a search custom
example: hl2mp/custom/My_custom_stuff/models/ Would be correct

So that means this is incorrect

Code: Select all

Note that the following directory structure is NOT correct:

	hl2mp/custom/models/my_model.mdl

make maps in hl2 regular, and poop the .bsp into hl2dm.
Hl2 > Hl2dm, all valid except for the info_player_starts.
Keep in mind that what i say is not static, it is dynamic.
Years, months, weeks, and days after i say something, i can say the opposite.

I haven't tried but, using csgo authoring tools could work. csgo uses the same vpk version as SteamPipe hl2dm so it's worth a try until official SDK update/hl2dm authoring tool comes.
