Its pretty simple, if you know the path ^^

Here you go
Just look for the crates, and jump on them, until you reach those 2 minitubes, you can climb them up (look up, like you would climb a ladder)

Here is a small image, that shows the way

nvr would have thought of that
needs a little climb icon like in socom
but might be a bit of a waste...
*goes and thinks in corner

Wow, great image Kai. 8)

Another method to get up there is to climb the bushes in some places that in effect work like ladders. ;)

if you turn around at the start of the canyon level (i think its the start) u go down a corridor and get to a place u must crouch to get to. U can see the modelling world axis marker. And when u throw a grenade u can see the end of the arm

Not quite, this is an entity like a weapon whose model is missing. This is a known problem.

Yes. Also known. Sorry. Kai is currently working on another set of hands and arms that will provide a long-term solution to this problem.

All of the current playermodels and weapons are created by some artists , but created for mods or games like HL1 .. so they are not really fitting the quality we are heading for the next release/techdemo ;)

And yes Carsten is right the new hand will look better, and also contain a normal map for the latest surface effects 8)

A sneak peak

left and right the highres mesh, the middle mesh is the lowpoly object (660 Polys). Im sorry but there is no real quick way to show the nmap like in Ca3D... but it is a finished model.

ok cool, and nice hands
nother question, after i release the move button the player continues to move in that direction like slidding or sumthing, just wondering if this is intentional or if its my system.

The sliding is default, but we know that the player physic is very simple and not really close to reality. But it is also added on the todo-list. However you can change players movement if you like (and are able to code it ;) )

Coding is not a problem. Still learning and getting used to cpp but i have been doing darkbasicpro,mpasm,tibasic,tiasm, and stuff 4 years
hopefully i will get sum more realistic movement stuff 2 show off
