Is it ok to use Megabuild stuff in mods that isn't in the beta engine

I would assume so as long as the original attribution for each of the things you use are maintained (such as if you plan to use any of the models I contributed to in my case).

I downloaded the build but when I boot it up it’s windowed and the bottom of the screen is cut off. Is there a solution?

Hello, I was wondering of the accuracy of some of the changes to the Megabuild from 2024, I noticed viewmodel differences and other small changes, is there a way to take these things off?

They forgot to add it. Wait a new patch.

The maps "bigwall", "intervu", "cbctv2-5" are supposed to have Render Target camera textures for the camera screens, but they don't seem to be working in the mega build. What's the issue?

no one knows lmao

I think its safe to say that the Megabuild might need an update lol. Because whenever I get this screen, and try everything (Try Again, skip etc) nothing seems to let it finish further. Hope the Megabuild people fix this...

Yeah, I think your copy is just corrupted or your hard drive is about to kick the bucket. Same things were happening to me a few years back when I had a failing drive, and it wasn't just maps.

sorry if this is a dumb question but is there a page and or an archive of the mega patch 4? On my end Mega Patch 5 got rid of alot of this things i liked about the beta, like the red/ wirey hev suit model, the trenchcoat cops, and now theres missing textures in maps that didnt used to have any.

Ive reinstalled and re-patched it dozens of times but it never fixes my issues, so now i kinda just want to go back to patch 4.

is there still a way to download it?

side note / other question. No matter what I do or which model pack I select in patch 5, nothing ever changes in game. is there a lore reason for me being stupid or is this a common issue?
