Can someone explain to me what all of this HL1 HL2 HL3 files are and what they’re useful for (or what they aren’t)?

67

According to Quad, they keep track of old levels, accounting for dead enemies, item pick up etc.

68

oh neat

How do you gauss boost whilst pointing forwards?

70

By using a super fast script that turns around backwards, release, and forwards again

71

The script itself is awesome.
In multiplayer, it boosts you faster.

72

Yeah. In singleplayer it takes 4.0s to fully charge the gauss, and in multiplayer it only takes 1.5s. But it can be used vertically in multiplayer too which is the biggest difference.
Here is a script i made for fun some time ago. It will boost you to the direction you aim the crosshair.

alias +tau "weapon_gauss;wait;+attack2"
alias -tau "cl_pitchup 270;cl_pitchspeed 21500;fps_max 60;wait;+lookup;wait;-lookup;-attack2;wait;+lookdown;wait;-lookdown;cl_pitchup 89.999;fps_max 111.111111111"
73

Wait a minute…
That’s kind of the same script

74

So uh, yeah, does anyone know how to do it?
Because I’ve seen on many videos where these players have the Half-Life 2 Gravity Gun replaced for Gauss Gun or the Gluon Gun

75

Try this tutorial - very helpful!

lol
Thanks

You should make a video tutorial on everything there is to know about the game. I would watch every second of it.

79

Slightly too much job x). But I’m planning to do a video commentary for the Blue Shift run soon.

Can a more experienced admin put me in charge of this topic, please?

80

I Can’t wait for this commentary, I really enjoyed the one of Op4

81

Agreed

+1

btw can you explain how you object boost ? spent 2 hours trying and i never did it. and i don’t have a clue how your script works (what to bind, how to use)
thanks !

88

Object Boosting can be done in 2 ways:
Manually and Script-Based.
Preferably to use the script.

So to do the actual Object Boos with the script, stand in front of a moveable object like a barrel or crate. Press the key A or D (whichever direction you’re going to). Then at exactly 100 milliseconds, whatever key you have bound for the Object Boost script, press that key and it will automatically do a jump and press the use key. Or the other way around. The script is obviously easier than doing the Object Boost manually.

89

ty sir ! but wich object boost script do you bind since there is a lots in quadra post
