Singleplayer Steam Workshop Questions

General Development Black Mesa
#1

I’ve published a singleplayer map, but I have a couple questions here.

  1. Is there any friendly way in Black Mesa itself for end-users to launch singleplayer maps? The Workshop Addons menu doesn’t have any buttons for launching the level. Do they really have to enable and go to the console to launch a Workshop map?

  2. How does one get to be in the “Singleplayer” subsection of the Steam Workshop?

Thanks.

#2

I’d really appreciate it if someone “in the know” could answer these, please. Especially the second point.

  1. There is not one, yet, but we have one planned for a future update to the UI.

  2. I believe you can do it in the settings for the workshop item, it’s a tickbox somewhere or other.

#4

Yeah, I would have expected a tickbox as well, but I simply can’t find it anywhere. It’s definitely not part of the P2 upload tool either.

There’s only one Workshop item in Singleplayer, and it’s not even a Singleplayer map. There’s only one Multiplayer item as well, despite there being several MP maps… so either people are forgetting to do it, or they can’t find it. X)

#5

You have to add it post publishing, iirc. Most people just post it and be done with it.

(I know because I’m that 1 MP cat’d map).

#6

But I literally can’t find the option anywhere. I’ve looked in all the tabs and Owner Controls and can’t find anything regarding Tags. :frowning:
