Tired of being asked, "herp derp how do i HLDJ", so here it is, the thread I've been waiting for but never made until now, a comprehensive guide on how to do everything Half-Life Disk Jockey.

[B][U]What is HLDJ?[/U][/B]
HLDJ is a program that allows you to play .wav (ONLY .wav) sound files in games such as TF2, CS:S, DoD:S, basically any game that runs Sourcemod.

[U][B]Is it free? Where do I get it?[/B][/U]
It's free, you get it from [url]http://www.hldj.org/downloads.html[/url], click either 32-bit or 64-bit depending on what you have.

[U][B]How Do I set it up?[/B][/U]
Unzip the folder (using programs such as WinRaR, you should already have unless you have down syndrome), onto your desktop, click "Setup" and the whole 9 yards of setup, etc. When you finish setup, it will ask you if you'd like to add games to your list.  Click yes, and watch as magic occurs before your very eyes.  Select a key to use ingame as your "Play" key, and press the little |> button in the bottom right of the box.  You sir/ma'am, have just done the nearly impossible, set up a program without being a dumbass, I congratulate you.
[IMG]http://i56.tinypic.com/15ewxdy.jpg[/IMG]

[U][B]Where/how do I get songs?[/B][/U]
[url]http://www.frostwire.com/[/url] <-- download that.  That will become your best friend.  If you've ever powered on a computer in your lifetime, you should know how to torrent, so FW will come easy to you. [B][COLOR="#ff0000"]NOTE: FROSTWIRE DOESN'T HAVE SOUND FILES, I.E. "BITCH, I LOVE YOU" SO YOU'D BE WASTING TIME IF YOU LOOKED THERE, WE SHALL COVER THAT IN A BIT SO HOLD THE FUCK ON[/COLOR][/B]  Select the "Audio" tab in Frostwire, type in the name of a song/artist/album, and search away son.  when the download is complete, drag that .mp3 (from Documents > Frostwire > Saved) to your desktop.  With that awesome converter HLDJ has up its' nuts, you can convert that bitch to a .wav, usable in-game.  Click the little double-note symbol in the HLDJ box, choose Desktop as your "Input Directory", and make sure the folder Audio is your "Output Directory".  press the Play key, wait for it to finish, and damn son, you done made a soundfile you can use ingame!
[IMG]http://i56.tinypic.com/264ie10.png[/IMG]                  [IMG]http://i52.tinypic.com/29pykk7.png[/IMG]

[U][B]Where/how do i get sound files?[/B][/U]
Credit goes to Sikh for this, [url]http://hldj.ucoz.com/dir/[/url]
or download videos from Youtube (Google Youtube video converter)

[U][B]How Do I select/play files in-game?[/B][/U]
When your game starts up, type "la" (without the quotes) in console, and it should bring up a list of everything present in your "Audio" folder that is a .wav.  Select the number that corresponds with the name of the file.  Go in a server, pick a team, and press the play button you selected earlier (mine is F8).
Also, I made a video HOW TO DO IT IF YOU CAN'T READ.
[video=youtube;ZjQiDEY8ivY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjQiDEY8ivY[/video]


Congrats, you have set up and successfully used HLDJ!
Enjoy yourself, and please use responsibly.

Here are some things you can try:

1. type this into your console in-game:

cl_allowupload 1
cl_allowdownload 1
cl_downloadfilter all



OR

2. go to this directory and delete the BSP of the map thats not cooperating with you when trying to connect to a server. *DELETE ALL VERSIONS OF THE MAP*

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\your name\counter-strike source\cstrike\maps

Finding a STEAMID

Even though names change in steam, their id always stays the same, and can be used to identify them in source-based games. If given a steamid, we can ban a user or put them on the t-list.

After someone freekills, hit shift+tab to open the steam overlay. Hit view players in the kinda right bottomish part of the screen under the word FRIENDS.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/2z5kz.png[/IMG]
Then hit recent players tab on the box that comes up, and click "profile" on the person who freekilled. It will open up a window with their steam page on it. Copy and paste the link at the top of that window onto this page: [url]http://steamidfinder.com/[/url]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/zGZqU.png[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/WiUoD.png[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/nlXVw.png[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/mpeH1.png[/IMG]

Then copy and paste the steamid here.

Another way to get the steamid is if he is still in-game, open your console, (~), and type "status" without the quotes. That will get you the steamid's of all connected players.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GsiBK.png[/IMG]
(console not opening? go to options, advanced, and check the enable console button, and then hit the ~ key again.)

If you have a demo, go to your hard drive, go to c:/program files/steam/steamapps/yourusername/counter-strike source/cstrike
Then find the name.dem of the demo you recorded, and as cooki3 said just open up mediafire.com and drag and drop that .dem file to media fire and post the link when its uploaded here.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/l7yJW.png[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/zRenP.png[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Cq0X1.png[/IMG]

Alternatively, you could go in game and open the console (~) and type "playdemo name"
Without the quotes, and replacing "name" with the name of the demo, then just record it with a program like fraps (if you have it)

Remember that you DO NOT need a demo for reporting freekill, you can simply open the console and copy paste the "freekiller has killed username with an ak47" and shit.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/eiLnn.png[/IMG]
Just paste that here like:
[COLOR="red"]&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;SpeEdy&#9733;&#9733;&#9733; killed E Scrillz with deagle.
caLamity (stone) killed &#9733;&#9733;&#9733;SpeEdy&#9733;&#9733;&#9733; with ak47.
shuirifudo killed &#3670;&#1763;&#1756; marista&#3670;&#1763;&#1756; with sg552.
Achievements disabled: Steam not running.
Most Destructive: E Scrillz inflicting 358 damage and killing 2 players in 7 hits!

Considering members are constantly wondering how to get promoted, I have made this guideline to help. The most important things are as follows:

[COLOR="#00FFFF"]1[/COLOR]. Please [COLOR="#FF0000"]DO NOT[/COLOR] ask to be promoted. You may ask [COLOR="#FFD700"][I]how [/I][/COLOR]to get promoted, but do not ask a specific question such as, "Can you promote me at the next council meeting?" This will only lead to a [COLOR="#FF0000"]demotion[/COLOR].

[COLOR="#00FFFF"]2[/COLOR]. [COLOR="#FF0000"]Get yourself noticed within the community[/COLOR]. Don't expect the council members to interrogate you on how you have helped the clan. [COLOR="#FF0000"]You[/COLOR] need to take the initiative and do something productive for the clan. The best way by far to get yourself noticed is to be active on TeamSpeak and [COLOR="#FFD700"][I]talk [/I][/COLOR]with the various members of this clan.

[COLOR="#00FFFF"]3[/COLOR]. Be sure to [COLOR="#FF0000"]be active within all aspects of the clan[/COLOR] as much as possible. This includes our servers, website, TeamSpeak, and the various contests we hold every so often.

[COLOR="#00FFFF"]4[/COLOR]. [COLOR="#FF0000"]Promoting [/COLOR][COLOR="#00FF00"]Nitrate Gaming[/COLOR] is an attribute that you must have in order to move within the ranks. Everyone has different abilities, and therefore do whatever you need to (in reason) to get our name out there. (i.e. Inviting people to our steam community group)

[COLOR="#00FFFF"]5[/COLOR]. If you are [COLOR="#FF0000"]highly artistic[/COLOR] and have the ability to make logos, banners, skins, or maps and contribute your talents to this clan, it will only increase your chances to be promoted.

[COLOR="#00FFFF"]6[/COLOR]. Helping out financially, by [COLOR="#FF0000"]donating[/COLOR], is also a great way to keep this clan moving along!

[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Note[/COLOR]: Do not think you will be promoted for being in the clan for a long time. This is a common misconception that many clan members have. If you are in [COLOR="#00FF00"]Nitrate Gaming[/COLOR], yet do nothing for the clan, don't think about a promotion.

This short and easy to read tutorial will teach you how to take multiple screen shots or jpeg photos in-game (Counter-Strike Source)
__________________________________________________ ________________________
Color Key: Read the words in [COLOR="#FF0000"]RED[/COLOR] For a quick over look
__________________________________________________ ________________________

1. While in-game, open your developer console.(If your not sure how to do this then refer to this Tutorial)

[IMG]http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/7751/bindforjpegincss.jpg[/IMG]

2. In the [COLOR="#FF0000"]console[/COLOR] field type:
Code:
bind F5 [COLOR="#FF0000"]"jpeg"[/COLOR]
and press enter.



(You can replace "jpeg" with "screenshot", and you can replace "F5" with the character of your choice)

You can find all of your screen shots in your "Screenshots" folder which is located in your "cstrike" folder.

To find your "cstrike" folder, open your "steam" folder, open "steamapps", open your "username" folder,open "counter-strike source" folder, open "cstrike" and you will see the folder "Screenshots".
(this is also where your demo's are saved)

Now I've seen some people ask others and I "How do I get accepted into the clan?" and "How can I move up into the ranks?" Well, this thread will give you tips that will hopefully answer these questions and help you get accepted or move up into the ranks.

First off, these tips will not get you immediately accepted or move up in the clan. It will take time, persistence and dedication. These tips are to help INCREASE your chances of getting accepted or get promoted, not shorten the time of getting accepted/promoted.

[B][U]1) Be Active:[/U][/B]

[U]Getting Accepted:[/U]Being active is a LARGE part of getting accepted. We don't want members that won't do anything with Nitrate. If not active, you will certainly be declined. So, be active in the servers, teamspeak and even the forums. The more active you are, the better. Members will begin to see that you are devoting time towards Nitrate Gaming and will be a great addition to the clan.

[U]Moving up in the ranks:[/U]Being active will increase your chances of being promoted. This will show higher ups that you are willing to put time into Nitrate and may be a potential leader. So hop onto teamspeak, get in those servers and browse those forums. Activity will help you, not hinder you.

[B][U]2) Be Mature and Respectful:[/U][/B]

[U]Getting Accepted:[/U]Nitrate Gaming will not accept applicants that are disrespectful and/or immature. We don't want members that will cause trouble amongst other members because A) It makes us look bad B) It makes you look bad and C) It'll cause unneeded drama within the clan. So be respectful and mature. Think before you speak. If you think that something you might say will cause trouble or is immature, then don't say it. It'll make yourself look better and increase your chances in being accepted.

[U]Moving up in the ranks:[/U]No one wants to have a leader that will disrespect others, or a leader that's so immature that people think lower of him/her and think of him/her as a little kid. So be respectful and mature, that way the higher ups will see you as a good, mature leader that's capable of handling many things.


[B][U]3) Contribute:[/U][/B]

[U]Getting Accepted:[/U]Contributing is also a handy factor in getting you accepted.  So contribute things. It could be from Mods, to Maps, to Events, to simple suggestions that could make the servers, teamspeak, or the forums better. Even though that not all of these suggestions may be accepted, it really shows the members that you really want to help out Nitrate Gaming and make you, in their eyes, as a person that would help Nitrate Gaming if you get accepted.

[U]Moving up in the ranks:[/U]Basically, it's the same thing as the "Getting Accepted" part. Only thing is it that the higher ups will see you as a potential good leader that will help Nitrate Gaming with suggestions and new ideas.


[B][U]4) Loyalty:[/U][/B]

[U]Getting Accepted:[/U]This is possibly one of the most important aspects of getting accepted. As an applicant, you are [B]NOT[/B] allowed to double clan nor have an application up for another clan when you are applying for ours. We do not want future members that will abandon us for other clans. This also means that you don't "bad-mouth" our clan as well. If one were to do that, they're down the path to denial.

[U]Moving up in the ranks:[/U]Very important to move up into the ranks. The members of Nitrate Gaming do not want a leader that will abandon us. It'd demoralize the whole clan if that were to happen. We don't want something like this to happen again, an incident in which members and even leaders of the clan were un-loyal and abandoned Nitrate. They will not be named, but it shows how important loyalty is to Nitrate Gaming.

[COLOR=#fff0f5]I've noticed there are many people that do not know how to torrent. If you don't, please read along.

For starters, here is a brief definition of a torrent:[/COLOR]

[QUOTE]A file that is constantly moving accross a large network. In order to download the file, the downloading file's segments must at the same time be uploaded to other users requesting the file. Torrents are tagged with a unique ID so that any particular torrent can be located from anywhere on the network with the correct software. -UD [/QUOTE]

[COLOR=#fff0f5]Now that you understand, let's begin.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#008000]==================================================[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#fff0f5]- You're going to need something to download the torrent files. My program of choice is uTorrent. You can download it for free at: [/COLOR][URL="http://www.utorrent.com"][COLOR=#fff0f5]www.utorrent.com[/COLOR][/URL][COLOR=#fff0f5]

- Find a torrent site. I use private sites like IPTorrents or Demonoid. Public sites like ThePirateBay and ISOhunt are filled with viruses and prison time. (they are generally shitty)

If you would like an invitation to a private site (IPTorrents/Demonoid), let me know in a post below.

For this example, I will be using IPTorrents.[/COLOR]

[IMG]http://img515.imageshack.us/img515/8739/iptj.png[/IMG]

[COLOR=#fff0f5]Next, you'll want to type what you're searching for in the search bar. You can find almost anything on torrent sites; Music, Movies, Games, Books, etc.

For now, I'll be searching for Metallica's discography. [/COLOR]

[IMG]http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/280/metallicadisco.png[/IMG]

[COLOR=#fff0f5]Generally, you want to pick one that has many seeders (someone sharing the files you need) and positive feedback. The first one seems to suit my needs.[/COLOR]

[IMG]http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/886/metallicasearch.png[/IMG]

[COLOR=#fff0f5]Once you click the one you want, you'll have the option to download the torrent and view any details the uploader added. This particular one shows you every album with their corresponding song titles.[/COLOR]

[IMG]http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/6859/metallicatorrent.png[/IMG]

[COLOR=#fff0f5]When the torrent is downloaded, open it. It should open with uTorrent if you installed it correctly.[/COLOR]

[IMG]http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/1338/metallicautorrent.png[/IMG]

[COLOR=#fff0f5]After it's done downloading, you can view the content from your "Downloads" folder by default.
