Hammer Setup for Lambda Wars (OLD)

[Sandern]

Lambda Wars is a mod for Alien Swarm, and as a result we use the Alien Swarm SDK for creating maps.

To setup the Alien Swarm SDK for Lambda Wars, execute the following steps:

• open the sdk and press "Edit Game Configurations"
• Name: Lambda Wars
• Directory: path to the Lambda Wars directory (e.g. "C:\Program Files (x86)\steam\Common\Lambda Wars\lambdawars").
  

  

  Add new game mod

• Select configuration and start hammer
• Go to Tools -> Options
• Add the lambdawars.fgd to the Game Data files. You can find the fgd in the mod folder.
  

  

  Setup of the hammer editor

• Depending on your map setup, you might need to remove the -alldetail setting
• For correct navigation, units require a navigation mesh. You can generate one using recast_build. Alternatively you can use the command "wars_editor" and go to the navigation panel and press "Build".
• Minimap creation: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wik ... _Overviews (except place the level information into "maps/yourmapname.res")

You can find example maps at:

Sounds like it crashes, might be a bug. Can you either upload your vmf or upload a crash dump from the alien swarm folder (mdmp files, see bug thread)?

[Yurtex]

Where I can look to provide it?

Your compile log is located in same folder as your .vmf , it has same name as your map, but ends with .log , can be opened with any text editor. You can provide .vmf as well.

In case you decide to compile with the option "-alldetail", you need to create func_brush named "structure_seal". If you compile from Alien Swarm Hammer, then this is the default.

See: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wik ... cture_seal

To make it annihilation name it with prefix hlw_ (ex. hlw_map)

Thank you very much

but as I put the resources they need rebels

Thank you very much

scrap_marker entity for this, just pace it where you want scrap to be.

Also make a boundary from brushes,
paint it with tools/toolsplayerclip,
make it into brush entity (ctrl+t) func_map_boundary.

So now you will have a boundary for camera.
