Two words: Split Screen

(1/4) > >>

Kevin:
First, I just want to say I love the idea of this mod and I love playing the BETA. Thank you and good job on the hard work.

Second, if you want to recreate the ultimate nostalgia factor, you should definitely look into local split screen multiplayer! I'm not sure if it's helpful or not, but Left 4 Dead has some split screen code you may or may not be able to look into for a reference.

All we'd need is a few of these bad boys and we'd be good to go! http://www.goldenshop.com.hk/AI-trad/pc/pc_psxn64usb.htm

PPK:
It would be a nice addition, although I don't know if the work required to make split screen is worth the work.

BTW, welcome to the forums!

I don't think Source has support for using multiple input devices at the same time (ie more than 1 joystick) don't quote me on that, but it would take a significant recode in order to pull it off

I am going to quote you on that. With Logitech controllers you can map keyboard keys to one controller. The second controller could just use the Source joystick stuff.

When HL2:Ep3 comes out there will be another Source engine update/grade, so you will start from scratch again, just like beta3? :angel: :P

Wake[of]theBunT:
I hope we dont....that could cause a big delay and be frankly to me not worth the trouble. I think as long as Orange Box SDK keeps our mod from becoming broken due to the code, we will stay. That way also the userbase most of which wouldnt be much passed the 2007 gen of computers will not be at disadvantage all of a sudden.
