(controlled with cl_rollangle & cl_rollspeed)Server:fixed crowbar.added smoke particles to metal gibsfixed func_tracktrain bug caused by Xash.Mp5 Fire Rate Increasedweapon ammo values adjusted.Func_tracktrain fix:This little fix will patch up any problems with the train sounds playing after a change level. Simply open up the plats.cpp file and go to "void CFuncTrackTrain :: UpdateSound( void )" and paste this code at the top of the function:if ( !pev->speed )StopSound();return;This also fixes up the stop sound playing after a level change in vanilla Half-Life as well.Other Notes:The source code was compiled in Visual Studio 6.0. To compile the engine requires Service Pack 5 for VS6 and the VC Processor Pack 5. With some careful research you should be able to still find them on the internet if you choose to go the old route, and not update the source code to a newer VS. Happy Modding!
