Thanks for the tip!
I would really like to explore VHLT, but i don't map GoldSrc anymore, except to play around occasionally with little test maps like this...(VHLT also reduces your compile time i just read? how cool!)

Finally ran though really quick.
First, very impressive/ambitious to build something this big/open in GS, kudos for that!
The reception areas looked AMAZINGLY clean and top-notch, despite the very LARGE scaling in areas Archie already mentioned
Elevator too looked great, but you could easily add train doors to complete the effect. Some texture scales are a little big and some things are very simply built(blocky like they were built in minecraft), but i understand you only have so much to work with in GoldSrc!

Wow very cool odd job, and as a bonus: you get to photograph nekkid ladies! a little to the left please miss, not so much ass-cheek in this shot.. =P
I'm a swimmer incidentally, so i can definitely appreciate that nice 50-meter pool, that place is huge! (the pool where i train is 25 meters and no deep end, and i ONLY go there because it's literally a mile away from my house..)
Cool shit! =P
PB: please let me know what you get, i'm buying a gaming laptop this spring as well!

Looks awesome, and amazing job on the teaser video!
Can we possibly have some more in-game stills?(like an imgur album or whatev) Hopefully soon though, TWHL will have the ability to upload more than one screenie
Played it! Thanks for the lovely present, i love the snowy ambience! =P
Btw, i forgot about the airplane map and i didn't even remember that was you! too funny! Actually, if i'm thinking of the right map, YOUR map actually helped me figure out some of the things i wanted to do with trains for my nuketown map, so i thank you as well! =)

Also btw since there are 4 memory slots, i will probably max the memory to 16GB by picking up 2 more 4GB sticks, just because they are relatively cheap
Edit I see some specs say that the max memory is 32GB, but then i couldn't reuse the old sticks, and besides, i don't think i need that much =P

I only noticed after i bought it what a low-end gfx card it comes with(i understand the distinction of Nvidia model numbers now), but hopefully with the other specs i should have a major performance increase from what i'm using now =)

Stu: Sorry, it's the book by Daniel Suarez, which should have been every result on page i linked to.
It's a techno-horror about microsoft/google-type company's basically sentient program, that has access to military weapons like predator drones, and many other nasty things =)
If you haven't read it you should pick it up right now. (Big thanks to Tetsu0 for recommending it!)

Thanks again for the comment and rating! =)

All-in-all excellent and fresh work, i love it!
Patiently waiting for you to make some of these retro HL works into defuse maps for csgo! =P

Also yes you never used the word "blocky", but you DID say the brushwork is "very simiple", which are basically the same thing =P

I'll try to actually play it soon as i can! =P
You ever try luminosity, or any brain game thingies?(I haven't, but it's intresting stuff for sure!)
Dust Thunder in CSGO!(though it's awesomeness will be somewhat depleated by the official dust clones Valve have now, i.e., Mirage and Ali.

As Dimbark would say, because i'm a "silly billy"
Try to enjoy the frosty screens, and roll around in the vmf if you are REALLY bored =P
Wittle-baby kitteh haz wittle-baby spoonz! =P
Same thing happened with my Floating Island Contest submission, as it crashed for the judges for no discernible reason....
Only after uploading it to the workshop made it playable for them, and i really don't want to upload this to the workshop... ='(
There really isn't much to the map. it's basically just a prefab and a reasonable amount of prop_physics_multiplayers..
Aw well. Take a look at the vmf if you want to check it out, because i don't know how else to fix it...
Do you think it could be an issue with pakrat?

Merry Christmas man!
And yeah that pic in my profile is a joke(i assume you are not familiar with the meme?) But yeah, i should probably delete it
Edit
Waiting for Ep1 to download(i know right!), but i'll let you know how i liked it soon as it's done
Thanks again man! =P

Microsoft actually did a good job with 7, so i will have to nab an oem copy before the deadline, or, one could always warez it if one were forced to
