WON Hlaf-Life should update the disk automatically as long as there is a liblist.gam file in the mods folder.

Steam HL I wouldn't know.

He speaks the truth. It can be changed ingame with the hud_color command but the .cfg thing doesn't work.

Do you play as bald Otis from OpFor or mustachioed Otis from Blue Shift?

Erm, bald Otis is moustachioed Otis. The other otis had a full head of hair and no moustach. They both appeared in OpFor. Only bald otis appearead in blue shift (twice during the tram ride and in the shooting range) and in model viewer you can see a black otis who wasn't used.

As for the name...erm...

"I'll get the leftovers."

(Alex, you missed 'Y')

Agreed. He's come a long way since his first release, which in reality was also pretty impressive for a first release.

I'm liking this. Pity I don't play CS 1.6.

TENTACLE! (The big green fuckers that scared me shitless first time round)

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!

B: Blue Shift

Also, why the hell would you skip 'X?' Does a certain alien world not spring to mind!?

Ha ha ha! Oh god.

I was wondering when the trailer would come out.

I can't believe they're making that shit.

Meh, I'll think about it.

Are we talking Func_Tank turrets or the pre-rendered models?

Yummy.

Indeedy

linky

I use SD models for OP4 now.

Op4's Low-Def models are teh suck. They actually reduced the texture resolution lower than the originals. shudder

Heh, winner by default. Can't beat it.

How about, Make an Amusing GMan model hack.

Replace his suitcase, change the skin, model or animations in some way.

Bonus Points for:
-Doing all 3
-originality
-Funniez

Otherwise someone else can think of one. I suck at coming up with ideas.

Noez!

Busy. Later. Shut up.

Have you even controlled them as of yet? I hope not. All the more lulz to watch!

I have only controlled The_Hunter once and thats it. He was standing in the doorway of the kitchen and not moving. Other sims tend to just wait for them to move out of the way but he seemed pretty happy where he was. Poor Rimrook really needed a shit.

The TWHL house will be getting some lady visitors soon

We need to make a list of who is still working on this.

Yeah, I'd say finish your's first caboose. I'm a n00b at web dev.

Otherwise I'll just do as you've been doing Espen and add new content to the site as it pops up here or by PM request.

Erm...Did you even look around before asking that question!?

Well its rather obvious that this site is just for Half-life mapping but that doesn't mean its members don't mod other games as well.

Make sure you have a player start entity in there.

Otherwise post a compile log.

I believe that Adrian Shepherd is the character you play as in Portal.

Woah. Ok.

1.) Hunter: There is a hole in the front of the shoes due to a skinning error.

2.) Sari and Daubeh are getting disturbingly close. Anything could happen.

3.) There will be a pool next time I post.

4.) I don't know if you can kill the cats. I've never tried. The only way to kill anyone intensionally is by locking them in an empty room for 3 days or so.

5. The stairs are hefty neo-industrial style because they have glass windows under the hand rails and look uber cool.

THAT'S RIGHT! COME ONE COME ALL TO THIS DEADLY HOUSEHOLD. LOCK UP YOUR DAUGHTERS, YOUR SONS, YOUR PETS...FUCK IT, LOCK YOURSELF UP WHILE YOU'RE AT IT. THE TWHL LADS ARE BACK IN DA HOUSE.

CAN I GET A "OH NOSES" ???
...
...ahem

Sorry. Its just kind of a big thing.We begin the day like any other. Daubster and Saribous have just finished an uncomfortably long semi-naked hug in the kitchen as Elon the cat looks on in horror. He stayed in that exact spot for about 10 minutes.Meanwhile, in the lounge, Rimrook and myself are playing cards. He's talking about charts, I'm not listening. The Hunter taps away at a PC in the backdrop. I hope thats Hostage Situation he's working on. Daubster is now cleaning himself of gay hug particles in a very bubbly bath......while Saribous pokes Orpheus with a stick. Orph however, seems more interested in Saribous' nuts.After demonstrating his 1337 dart playing skillz Habboi decided to join the card table. Me and Rimrook took his money and made him cry. We lol'd.After looking around the house I decided a purchase was neccessary. Some art for the walls maybe? Yes indeed. Turns out whether its lunch time, dinner time, supper time, a midnight snack or even if your shopping for a bloody picture for the wall, TWHL is forever taunted by sandwiches.Daubster has returned downstairs and sits with Saribous on the dining room floor (Not the heated super sofa's in the lounge) and have an awkward conversation about their hug earlier. All the while, judging from Daubster's face at least, having a clear view of Saribous' man-bags.Urb reflects (no pun intented) on things in the mirror and decides: "That's not what I look like anymore!"Yes the neglect of razors and haircuts in the Real World has led me to change my mini versions appearance.Meanwhile, The Hunter takes some time for his own reflection. He looks back over the days events and quietly giggles to himself. Thats my guess anyway. He might just be thinking about funny hats.

STAY TUNED!

Jammy Sod.

Ooooh. Pipey.

Just a thought. I was bored today so I knocked this together.

How's this?

Habboi wins! We hired the robotic cats from some guy called harold.

I was talking about Lego HL on IRC this morning. Love all 5 episodes. Waiting for episode 6.

I'm bored of 'The Ballad' now cos its been circulated more than blood.

No no its nothing like that. Its just a window that looks down into the room where it is. Thats all.

I'm trying out the whole 'see your goal long before you actually reach it' technique. It looks good.

You can see the crystal from windows in the observation style corridor i posted a while back.

Don't worry the ceiling has a different texture now.

So is this still valid?

Alien Crystal - Urbanebula

I should bloody well hope so

This really needs a proper site.

And I hope they spelled Shephard Properly.

Its a very old engine remember.

Heh...forgot some. These are ones that I am not in charge of but am working on.

Hostage Situation (modelling) - Still in development.

TWHLMix2 - Still digging the mines. Still being attacked by my cool new monsters.

Untitled Source Project (Voice Acting and Texture Art) - Not telling

DN:S - Learning Project for Source. Keeping quiet due to copyright issues.

Last Day in Paradise - Its been in the concept stages for nearly 5 years and I'm waiting for the right moment to get a team together and make it. It may end up being a mod for Crysis due to the physics and destructable environments but to put things in perspective its gone from Duke Nukem 3D to Quake 2 to Half-Life to Half-Life 2 and so far not one of them seems as though it would suit the theme. That's all I'm saying.

Dunno why I'm making this thread. I'm pretty bored and I've been going through my threads all the way back to the dawn of all time (when I joined) and its pretty mad to see all the mods I've started and ended over the years. I was just wondering if anyone else gives in as much as I do. :

MOD The Complex - Worked on for about 3 weeks before getting bored. Then restarted 2 years later and renamed CENCOM

MOD HL: Manifestation - Started out as a demo version of The Complex and became my first 'off the wall' mod being made alongside my Girlfriend. The mod died with the relationship.

MOD HL:Crabz - Came with a competion map (still in the vault) in order to win a chance to play test the completed mod. Got lost in a nasty virus incident.

MOD Sub Zero Project - Larger mod which started during the development of HL:Crabz. Included a lot of new textures and loads of re-skins and my first edited models. Got lost in the same nasty virus incident.

MOD Brainwave - A completely original idea which was inspired by a competition called 'map something unique' but only 2 days before the closing date. Progress slowed and stopped 1 week in.

MOD HL: Outbreak - A horror mod involving a chemical plant involved with Black Mesa and a zombie outbreak. Skinned a load of models and then cancelled due to storyline issues (Basically it was shit)

MOD THE URBAN PROJECT (aka Skyline City) - Lasted about 2 months. The mods story, location and content changed about 5 times before it died.

MOD HL: Overload - My first mod based in the Black Mesa Research Facility. Put on hold due to new ideas. Then Deleted.

MOD CENCOM - The resurrection of The Complex mod that started 2 years earlier. Put on hold due to new ideas.

MOD KinetiX - Huge mod. Lots of custom content. Put on hold due to new ideas.

MOD This Tainted Place My first mod to feature nothing but custom textures. Put on hold due to new ideas.

MOD HL: Event Horizon (Texture Artist) - A Source mod. Lasted 5 months before the team fell apart.

MOD HL: OIFH Current Project which basically is awesome.

I don't play the original counterstrike anymore but I can tell from the screens that there are some good ideas in there. The architecture looks kind of basic and blocky and you've filled it in with crates which is a big no no when creating map that should feel like real places.

Some wierd issues with textures too. (I'm mostly talking about the blocks with the barrel textures.)

Ran AdAware and removed a few items, tried cmd with the ip dnsflush thingy and got the same message about it not finishing and TCP doesn't come up with anything unusual.

Hmmm...Might re-install my modem drivers.

Basically this cannot be done without coding. End of story. If the floor was an entity the lighting would be screwy and the map would L-A-A-G-G-G-G. If you used a trigger to charge the suit it would still require a huge amount of other triggers to get the 4 second delay before they started charging.

Thanks.

Goes to fix Low-Def sci with High res textures that never worked in-game.

Using ZoneAlarm on medium settings for both ingoing and outgoing data.

Just tried repairing in 'network connections' again and realised that it doesn't actually finish. It says

'Windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following action cannot be completed:
Clearing DNS Cache.'

Problem there maybe?

Tried both but no cigar. Thanks though

I've cleaned up a few things with a virus scan and I'm gonna run a defrag when I leave for work tomorrow morning.

If all that fails its about time I formatted and started fresh anywayz

Hey guys.

Another Technical PC question.

About 2 days ago my internet started acting up. Its not a connection problem beause my modem doesn't actually disconnect but something is definately fucked up.

Everytime I do anything that requires the internet in some way it freezes for a moment. Some examples.

-MSN Messenger: Whenever I send a message to anyone, msngr freezes for about 2 - 5 seconds depending on the length of the message.

-Opera: Works for the most part. Freezes for 5 seconds whenever I open it and then it works for 5 minutes or so until I prompt it to refresh the page (posting a thread or a post, clicking a link etc.) when it will freeze for about 10 seconds and then throws up the cannot connect screen. If I then click back it will load the page I was on and if I perform the exact same action it works. Then 5 minutes later the same will happen.

Utterly confused and getting annoyed. Any clues? Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Because I spent 5 minutes typing this Opera froze! Good job I copypasta eh?
