Hello TWHL!

It's been awhile hasn't it? Aside from posting Butts in the ShoutBOX I really haven't been on. But I recently started getting back into mapping for Source and kind of wanted to show off a small portion of a map I'm working on.

I was bored in class a few days ago(more like everyday amiright) and started drawing up plans for a small street segment map, and reinstalled the sourceSDK and fired it up. I've been working on it in most of my free time, and I'm actually really happy with where it's going, so I'll post a couple of screenshots of the progress on one area:

And this one was taken just a few short moments ago,

If you look at the file names you might notice that 4 numbers are missing, they are just in between images. I set up a point_viewcontrol cause I thought it'd be cool at the end to compile all the images into one cool fading thing. So yea, I'll post more pics later, I want to keep working on this and not forget about it like my other stuff.

Also I've been working on some weird world generator thing in flash, have a link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28045253/FlashGames/WorldGen2015/WorldGen2015_IV.swf. I've mostly been working on flash projects the last few months when I can, work and school have been taking up most of my time, but with the semester coming to and end I'm hoping I start to get more free time.

Thanks for reading all of this(and maybe checking the link out?), it's long, probably boring, but I missed this place, you guys are cool.

EDIT: Another screenshot appears!

Nice map, what are you going to do with it?

I downloaded FlashDevelop last year and wanted to scratch a bit the surface of flash programming, but it seemed boring, and after reading a couple of opinions on this subject it seems that Flash is dying so I really lost interest.

Hopefully it's going to be an assault type map. Like some of the levels in HL2/EP1 in C17, attacking combine positions in war torn C17. And I use FD for my flash stuff. It probably is, but I think it's fun to do stuff, I use FlashPunk to help me a lot, I probably wouldn't have gotten far into programming without it. It's funny though cause I'm in a basic C# class now and it's all incredibly easy compared to when I first started in AS3.

EDIT: Have another screenshot in the main post. Learning all over again how much I hate lighting, and how badly I suck at it.
