The only thing i'm gonna say is point out a problem with the Theory of Evolution as it bothers me every time I think about it. So before creatures had eyes, we are assuming that over thousands of years they developed eyes. So did they plan this because they would have had this useless non-functional eyeball for hundreds of years as it developed...does that sound kinda far fetched to any of you??
Lol...yes, i've been otherwise occupied...but i am going ahead with this lol...i invented a new one:
Achievent: Messing With God
Description: Annoy the crap out of an Admin of a website or LAN party
(I actually deserve this one, I completely owned one of the Admins of the LAn party I went to at Gang Garrison 2. Lol, later on I had to register for an official CSS comp and when I said my user name, he screamed: "So YOU'RE HLIFEHOTDOG!!!!"

God damn it...I go away for 4 days and look what happens
Multicoloured spam!!!!! lol...what are we?? In kindergarten???
Sorry sir, but Evil Bill is no more.Evil Bill, spent ten years patronizing world leaders. Before retiring to a world of philanthropy. I wonder who has the power now?
Well...I can't be stuffed formatting my hard-drive and replacing any OS...so i'm happy with Vista Ultimate...Google will not win this one...no offence but Google had a hand in the internet way back and it got a good hand before Microsoft did. Microsoft basically own the entire OS market...the other OS survive simply because they are more useful for some aspects like business and such...Microsoft will trash google (no offence) 
Usually, yes...I think, I don't check every time
Lol...you EGON GUN USER person 
If I get a broadband USB dongle and it doesn't lag to badly, I MAY play...as I have whacked work hours...
Use the scaling tool--Alt-E--to "shrink" segments to the desired taper. (you can rotateThis is totally the tool you need...I just made a dome ceiling using an arch and then ALT-E the top....then i just copy, flip it upside-down so the edges map and repeat the process on the top side again...bit fiddly but possible
Awwww....come on guys...it's not meant to be easy...hence why it's a Layout competition...please please please enter free cake for all who submit an entry 
Green Day are awesome...I'm also hooked on "21 Guns"

No...
i think you broke half-lifelol...
Stacies Mum - Fountains of Wayne
I think:
That movie is seriously over dramatized

Thats it! I'm remaking the map...this is just ridiculous...you keep compiling it and if it still doesn't work then I'll have an alternative ready.
Lol...i know...I watched two friends playing it for about 2 hours 
i can't wait to get that game...im 'buying' it off a friend in a few days
Lol...it's totally a shadow of someone walking outside...the news crew is there...there will be heaps of people around
I'm glad I don't fit into the 15-year olds or the broke students categories but i wouldn't be able to play on it enough to justify me paying for it...that and i usually lag on servers outside Australia
but i wouldn't be able to play on it enough to justify me paying for it...that and i usually lag on servers outside Australianever!!! I will never apologise for my freedom of creation!! It's Half-Life's fault!
My bad
No...because -nowadtextures is enabled this eliminates the problem usually
Wasn't I going to make another map?? Maybe I should...and I could try to make a commentary...don't know what to say though
I haven't checked this thread since page 4...anyone wanna give me a rundown on WTF i missed?? lol
5 hour compiles ARE NOT fun.Lol, I find 5 hour compiles fine...it's when they take 10 hours that I start hating them. And if I can rustle up some other stuff for it, do you want it???
Nice Rim...it's like the complete opposite of my map
And It's looking good Moab!
I'm doing more runs over my map, bit of decorating and trims. Also adding more destruction the overall appearance of the map as thats what it is. A castle partially destroyed by lava flows. It's coming along nicely. Might also add more towers for appearances sake. You won't actually be able to climb them but its just for looks but thats A big thing as i have to extend the skybox again to do it. And how does everyone feel about moving clouds?? Assuming of coarse I can figure out a way for them to have faded edges...

Even if someone did play it...they would be one of very few...servers would be few and far between if any good at all...there is no market for it. Maybe a few people will find it popular at small sized LANs but thats about it
Yeah...thats why I said just a video...I can't be bothered building another demo...a video will show a bit of what you will see in the mod anyway...should be greatNo...just a video of the effort Ii put into making it look as good as I can...so far I think it looks great despite hours and hours of work for only a portion that you pass in 20 seconds...I feel shammed 
Hmm...this is true...I might push the limits some more anyway...but I won't do much just add more trims and such...still have 15 days to go...
well, we have parts done...mostly the introduction but right now ive started building the tram ride into Black Mesa...to start the storyline and hook it up to what we have got already...then we can release that as a real tech/storyline demo...the demo you are getting now is a tech demo mostly...
-_-
Yes...well...lets hope that gets done soon
Yes...well...lets hope that gets done soon
On a side note...now that my comp entry is finished I've started on the actual intro map...yes!! We have actually 'started' lol...some screenshots when it's done will be posted to give you guys a little taste of the real thing...(also hopefully have the demo up and ready by then too)
Umm...I'm gonna have trouble deciding which one to give you
EDIT: i don't have time to fix it up or anything...so i'll just check it at you and see what you can do with it good idea but...
EDIT: Haha...I found an old map of mine involving killing the player in a number of fun and amusing (if not thoughtless acts of violence) ways
EDIT: And I also found a map I forgot to compile yay...a map thats all done and ready to go...i'll compile it now
EDIT: I can't find much to give to you...but I've got something...hold on
EDIT FINAL: http://hlifehotdog.googlepages.com/block_hole.zip Do what you can with it...It's kinda open and no textures...sorry but its all I got that you can use

Just checked, Chrome uses DSN pre-fetching to decrease load times (whatever that it )
)No! Your opinions are invalid, mine are right!Well said Strider
Chrome does block basic pop-ups, which is good enough for me, a little notification appears counting how many in the bottom right corner. Chrome does save passwords but it has three options. One to save password, one to not now and one to never ask again. Check your options. And I think (I didn't bother to check) Chrome uses items in the cache for web pages so you don't reload everything every time you change page in a site (I'm not sure if this is right, I just read something somewhere, please correct me if i'm wrong)
Good news! The fog effect is in perfect working order (thanks guys) and with the optimisation I did yesterday I reduced compile times down by 1 hour! So I'll do a bit more of that, otherwise it's all finished and will appear in the map vault in a few days. (although the map itself is 10.2mb alone might take a while)
might take a while)It does...and I like that its blue and as few bars as possible 
Can't be because I don't even know what the Opera browser looks like...never seen a picture of it let alone it in use.
Firefox annoys me...and Chrome's sleek appearance and genuine simplicity is good enough for me
EDIT: To clarify why, I find that Firefox tries to hard to to be everything it thinks you want. When in fact i'd rather have a simple browser that does nothing fancy and focuses on the task at hand, which is what 'I' want

I'm attending university next year with no school marks at all...because I was home-schooled all my life. It's not that hard.
Haha...might as well Imus, I've hit a MAX_PATCHES error so I'm going to do some optimisation today and do a -sparse compile...otherwise my entry is mostly done.
You need to add -texdata 400000 to ALL compile options, that's what's causing the file read failure.
And if nobody can get it to work...I'll rebuild the map
Lol...I'll use some of then and alter others...hey even srry's is good with a little modification...There might be a vote at the end for the top 30 if we have more than that...
They do...I get a good impression on what they will look like but a full compile is needed to see if they match with the lighting conditions...So I only do a full compile at night...otherwise I will just guess with smaller compiles. And no, it doesn't look like source at all (speaking of which, I need to get into source mapping [WHEN STEAM WORKS!!! AARRHH!!])
That would still be a massive area. It would probably take a few hours at least.
