OKAY ABOUT MY LAST JOURNAL
I'm so sorry I didn't provide links. I have underestimated how decayed Half-life 1 communities are... Now that I know how to, I will surely provide links in the future should it be necessary.

I noticed some of you guys (and zealously at that) appear to bash my retro setup. Yes, I play software mode. Yes, steam takes 20 minutes to load a game. BUT IT'S NOT NICE to say I am so retro as to be using IE6! The last time I used IE6 was when I was watching some yuri anime, and then I got some viruses on my laptop. IE6 Fail.

Yes, of course LIKE EVERY NORMAL PERSON NOWADAYS I use the firefox. I have learned on pain of viral infection that IE6 is not the way to go. But the fact remains that I have problems with this current layout, and I use a perfectly normal windows XP. There is total validity to this claim.

But everyone knows that with each of my journals comes news of a great new mod. http://www.pcosmos.ca/mods-hl/downloads/?mod=freeman: This mod is called Freeman. This mod features Freeman. And this mod is HARD. HARD on your EYES. You know. This is probably what they call laziness. Get this mod NOW.

Game loads for 20 minutes? You best be joking. Defragment your drive, man. And long loading times have nothing to do with software mode. So I see no point in using it, unless you have a broken video card.

Besides what SpaG said about defragging the drive, you might also want to look in to seeing how many programs or services are running at windows startup, some of these could even be trojans, some of which are notorious for steeling memory resources, thus bogging down the computer's operating speed.

So... Go to japan and buy some DVDs instead of going to virus-infested sites?
"this mod is HARD. HARD on your EYES" "Get this mod NOW"
:\
Also, How is the layout giving you problems on firefox? Can you post a printscreen, because I never have that problem, only the font being different on the text.

That's good for you and everything, but it probably wasn't a good idea to just openly say that.

What do you mean hard on my eyes? Is it bad texture choices? Bad lighting? Too much contrast? There sure is no HDR there. Bad mapping? Or just because the site is in French?

Also, what do I see in that screenshot? Looks like Aztec ruins or something like that. That's not very Half-Lifey. But, I will check it out.
