So regular competition results apply; like you can have more than one entry.
So Daubster already has an entry in, and we're awaiting one from Muzzleflash.
awesome.
Daub, you still have 3 weeks to make another, if you so choose.

now that's just ridiculous. Maps DO look cool in notepad though.
Working all day today, and then hitting up the beach later because i need to relieve some massive amounts of stress. Maybe after the beach, I'll work on my cathedral a little more.

You should be able to listen to any song you want in it's entirety. 
I'm not sure what's going on because it works for anyone else.

Well Here goes. I'll just make the Rules
Entity-Work Competition 1: Rune Goldberg Machine
Rules:
Make a Rune Goldberg Machine (Chain Reaction Machine) That has a series of complex steps in order to complete a simple task. Such as opening a door, or making toast.
Entries cannot include any custom .wads or models because this is NOT a brushwork competition, it's strictly for smooth flowing and believable entity work.
Entries must have at least 5 steps or events (such as a boot kicking a bucket, or a mousetrap springing something...) that can be started with the simple push of a button.
The player cannot be a part of, or interfere with any of the events, but feel free to include any enemy AI you wish.
The machine can be of any scale, but the entire series of events MUST BE VISIBLE FROM ONE OBSERVATION POINT IN THE MAP. Example: A large outdoor area, with observer in a tower. Whatever
Place the completed .rmf and .bsp in the completed section of the map vault, post a link to the map vault page on this thread.
Deadline is may 15th at Midnight EST time. (I live on the USA east coast. sue me(not really, dont sue me(please)))
Good luck

Its melodic hard rock.
Breaking Benjamin is our main influence and Dave, the vocalist, is still a bit uncomfortable in the studio.
And MOP, we overdubbed the rhythm guitar for "Sore" so something might have gone awry with the tuning, but its still a better version than the original.

We should have them.
Just a thought.
Like.. just doing really complex entity work... kinda like the board game mousetrap.
Suttin like that.

Thanks fellas.
Just wondering here, but since you've been to the site, how do you all like the music?
Good / Bad input is requested.
That's most of the stuff off our first album and the second one is due to come out maybe in 2008.

Thats a good idea but i have no experience with partitioning, so i'm just going to stick with XP for another year maybe.
BUT i have a class and i probably wont be here for another.... 12 hours or so
give or take

hahah yeah. as soon as i get back home, i'm gonna wipe my HD and downgrade to XP.
vista is cool but everyone is right. It's too new.
Illl get it when halo 2 comes out for it hahha.
only reason i got it was because it was free from my skool.
There might not be an update today as i have to work and there's a major paper due tomorrow.
I'll see what i can do, and thanks for the input.
For the meantime, does anyone have a good stone texture pack?
I'm going to check wadfather but i was wondering if anyone just has oe lying around.

Cool. i'll look into it. Before i hit up google and wiki, do you have any good archetecture sites?

@ espen180 and BL : I'm going to make the rest of the cathedral first then search for / create my own textures for the doors. I do agree that they look silly.
New screenshots. Just some more windows. I can't get a picture of this part of the side of the church so i'm just gonna stick these windows in.

Despite vista sucking, i just cant deal with source anymore. I'm taking a break. There's too much stuff to learn and i don't feel like messing with it yet.
I've become quite accustomed to mapping with solid polygons now and i started work on a new HL1 deathmatch map that will hopefully make it to muzz's server if he approves.
Anyway.
It's based off the tuam cathedral and i already have the front entrance mapped out and i'm just hoping to have some blood and gore inside a church. I'll post some screenshots as soon as their worthy of being posted. Which means.. It'll take a while because i have an english paper to write, calc test to study for, and next week is finals week.
SO
needless to say it's gonna be a while, and im not even going to have any custom content, well, because there's no vista compatible photoshops out there that i can use free of charge (lets not get into that)
I guess i can include one screenshot so here it is:

Hey, i havent tested vista with software mode and online capability yet. But im sure it'll work. Can we get an feed on the news page of twhl with the server information?? that'd be cool.
I think Sryy has a point. The Vort's lighting doesnt match. And it almost seems out of focus.
I like blender but i dont know if it extracts to anything useful.
I would join but my exams are coming up PLUS my computer hates goldsource now.

As for the map, it's a good start. I can see the area pictured as one of the bomb sites, with wings extending off in each of the four directions where the CT's/T's would start.That's exactly what i was thinking about. And a dusk map is a good idea. I started work on one of the alleys branching off the main section today.

Just the basics for now. I'll add some more detail in a bit. Now that i have decided to work on it, i have to come up with a layout. So i'll keep working toward a useful layout.
I'm still getting used to the insane amount of detail needed for source maps. So any criticism on what i have already is still appreciated
I'm pretty sure that my graphics are on max Habboi. I'll grab a yellow sky texture and I'll put the buildings in that I've been working on. thanks.
Well they're not full. i don't have any antistropic or whatever its called.
its on trilinear

I haven't put any thought into the layout of this map yet, but i just started building, and i have a center courtyard area. I think it looks pretty cool and if i keep the level of detail i could have a really good looking level as a final result. But before i pursue making the rest of the map, i thought i'd throw it out here to see what you guys think. here are some screen shots.

I started with the center four pillars and just built from there. i used the textures themselves to inspire me to create the rest.
Any criticism is appreciated

of course you can also argue that his favorites were randomly generated so he randomly liked something therefore he will choose that favorite item in the future..
