Do you want to enable the animated background in HL2? Do you also want the console enabled while keeping the animated background? If so, then this thread is for you
Here's what you have to do:
1) Check at the bottom of the screenshot of the animated screen you want, then copy the map name.
background01.bsp
background02.bsp
2) Open "NotePad" and enter the following code:
map_background "MAPNAMEHERE.bsp"
where MAPNAMEHERE is the name of the map you chose in step one. (ie: map_background "background01.bsp")
2) Save the file to:
"...\valve\steam\steamapps\"username"\half-life 2\hl2\cfg\" as "autoexec.cfg"
4) Viola! This method has been tested and WORKS ON ALL .GCF FILE VERSIONS OF HL2.

uhm.. if you just run without -console it just launches the animated background.. no need for this!
and if you enabled the console in the Advanched thingy it would work too.. so this tutorial = crap

thanks a bunch. i tried testing backgrounds 3-7 in hl2, but they never loaded  strangest thing.
anyway, there is also a background named "intro.bsp" that doesn't quite look like its a finished work. it's a picture of a rooftop in city17 (i believe) with two pigeons pecking away.
for some odd reason backgrounds 3-7 load the first one. also, i cannot view the "intro.bsp" as i once had before i viewed the first one.
anyone have any suggestions on to why im getting this??

hmm. usually you only get background one with the console off.

haha, damn. i guess you're right. that would make this thread pretty useless. anyway, it's kinda fun to tinker around with and see the amazing backgrounds even if you havn't reached that certain level.
the main reason i started this thread is because people were reporting that they could not see the animated background, so i offered them a fix.

is it possible to put any map you want in the background?. i mean it would be cool if you can see the map gm_construct if you start garrys mod for instance.

im pretty sure you can. not a mapper myself, but i'm pretty sure you need a fixed camera -something which i think all maps have (i may be wrong). test it and see what happens.

Is there any cool backgrounds for css?
You cant use the normal maps because it will ask you which team you want to play just like you start a new game.

ok i tried to use another background now in garrys mod and then you have a animated background but you see the weapon and the hud and the cross hair. i think if you wanna have a differnt animated background you got to do some shit in hammer and edit map.
