Didn't know about that. But I was gonna draw everything instead of taking screenshots off an in game area for my comic. Interesting knowing about that.

Yeah, during one of my archive sessions I recently learned of Unbreakable's passing. Very sad, he was a pretty talented guy. I have a copy of this map saved and uploaded on Archive.org for preservation: https://archive.org/details/unbreakables_compo_entry
Sadly, I can't seem to find a copy of his other maps, hope they turn up one day. Also wanted to mention that I believe "Horror Map" was his actual final map, since this was a reupload that use to be on Dark Tree Media's site eons ago.
About the "special syntax": backslash followed by any character other than the letter "n" should work. The reason an extra character is needed is that backslash is a special escape character ( see https://github.com/id-Software/Quake/blob/bf4ac424ce754894ac8f1dae6a3981954bc9852d/WinQuake/pr_edict.c#L693-L717 ). Or, to make it easy for yourself, just write a forward slash instead! "models/kingpin.mdl" should work just fine! Thanks to Solokiller for this info

I am working on an open source reverse engineering effort for Half-Life, and I wanted to say thanks for all your example maps, they've been incredibly helpful and time saving!

I was sure I left a comment in here, am I becoming crazy? 🤔 I was saying you did a great job with the website, the design is neat! I'd also be much willing to hear about your novels or the rotary club!

Thank you Overfloater and Reasonable! Just to be clear, I only recreated Bowieworld from it's original Worlds.com rendition. I did not design this. I agree that it's a brilliant work of art though!

I love this map pack. It's simple yet captures the artistic style of Bowie quite well with the glum streets, and the colors and designs, the contrasting colorful/bright interiors. Feels like a great way to honor Bowie and his memory. So, overall good work.

In now know people from highschool/college who have kids. It's almost weird to play games (well, I don't actually do that very often either... but form time to time maybe I'll give CS:GO another try) with them because the following situation arises in my mind: "If I had kids, wouldn't I feel guilty playing games? Would I have time?"
I can't answer yet that question :)). But what I know, observing them, is that after you get married your personal free time is significantly cut, and "free time activities" are all of a sudden a family project :). So when somebody with kids plays a multiplayer game with you, it's probably a special occasion.

Two characters roam the Alpha Black-Mesa and get in all sorts of troubles, the theme is also comedy here.
But obviosly no one would stop you if you do your thing.

RIP
The other one I've been working on for more than a decade. It's called "The Hidden Patriot". It's a historical fiction based on WWII Shanghai.
This is the website I created for our Rotary Club: https://www.signalhillrotary.org/
I am sure you can discern the similarities between the two sites.

I love these old school style maps
The map can be played in regular Counter-Strike, not just CZ, if anyone is wondering.
Now I watch him play. He's enjoying Red Dead Redemption II now.
but what about the other weapons?
And no, I don't have a Philips CD 101. I modeled that CD Player based on internet photos.
I'll post my equipment pics soon. Most of them are WIP.
Show us that Philips CD 101 of yours if you will
