Yesterday I tackled a problem that has plagued game developers for decades; creating good-looking flowing water. Needless to say, I failed. Anyone good with Sprit's Aurora particle system?

Oh, I also went in a helicopter and had my first flight today, which is fairly noteworthy, but less so because I can't currently upload any pictures.

WAIT, You tackled it, and failed? Those two words cancel each other out.

In a different context, you can tackle someone in football (yes soccer), not get the ball, and therefore fail.

It makes enough sense.

I've seen it done in goldsrc maps, but don't ask me what maps they were... pretty sure it involved multiple semi-transpaparent layers of scrolling textures and use of sprites of course. =)

possibly pm soup miner or rimrook?
