I don't have an amp right now. GHS boomers? i'll have to try those.
Dean makes damn nice guitars and basses, and DR makes the best strings. (Black beauties! w00t!)
nice kb, 7th!
I play piano, organ, kybd, bass guitar, trumpet. (and a little percussion)

wavpad? never heard of it. I've got Audacity (opensource, from sourceforge) and cwhs2002 (commercial, cakewalk)
C/C++ are good languages to know, but i'm way too lazy to learn! 
need audio editing/mixing? I've got a bunch of open source editing crap. Just send me files! (email)
Freebasic is cool because the syntax is identical to qb with about 2 exceptions. BTW, I think the link might work now! At least it works in ie. I only had trouble w/firefox. (scary, huh!)
ok ansith, working on it. Should it be broken/hurt the player/have monsters/weapons?
Or are you learning to program and chose an exercise for yourself or such?I just got FreeBasic, and am learning how to use it. I've been using qb for 4 or 5 years, (maybe more), and this was something that I wanted just for fun, figured other people might benefit from it. But the download still doesn't work, so don't bother trying until I fix it.
because I can! Don't bother do d/l it now, the link doesn't work, I'm having issues with my host. But i'll fix it.
When i choose save as, it saves as a html file. :/crap! there's something wrong with my host. Will fix...
no, it just tells you how long your compile took. I can't decrease your compile time.
I have reason to believe that the compile times that zoner's tools give you are somewhat inaccurate. So, I made a small utility that will give you very accurate times, to 15 decimal places. Get it here: tekcities.com/fragmeister/files/basic/protime.zip

a big power thingo in the middle of the facility ok with lots of red lights (emergency ones)like a generator type thingy, or reactor? do you want it to hurt the player?, like it's broken (post-disaster)
tosse, I kinda liked your old avatar better, without the text. It really made people wonder who the hell it was, and if it was you... But now everyone knows that it is just an evil midget.
what was he doing in this mod? wasn't he just mapping? If you need someone to just do some mapping, let me know, but if you can find another person to replace jimmi, that would be awesome.

my crowbar. Maybe I should change my av back to it?

that's... very unique, elon! what the hell is it?
why not?
yes, it is. Here's what you do:
-use dvd decrypter to record the dvd as an .iso file
-use daemon tools to mount it as a drive
-open the .vob files (I think, they're the biggest ones, in the video_ts dir?) with vlc, set it up as a stream server with the output as your desktop and an avi or mpg file, and play it back.
The conversion from .vob to .avi can only happen in real time with vlc, but ripping the dvd to an iso on my old laptop only took about 30 mins.

you use photoshop? or something like it? I used the gimp.
well, if jimmi is back, he sure hasn't been spamming (thank god) I hope that he's learned his lesson(s)
I think that what you are trying to do is illegal! But if you still want to, download the vlc media player, use it as a stream server, and output the stream to a file, I think it can do avi, and you'll need dvd decrypter too.
videolan.org - vlc
dvddecrypter.com - dvd decrypter
And I almost forgot, you'll need daemon tools to mount the .iso from dvd decrypter: daemon-tools.cc
It does take a bit of work, but it should work. I've ripped parts of dvds to mpegs with it!

yeah!
well, it was worth a try, anyway.

@evilsod2k: I know, but I mean you can't use a env_beam to trigger another entity, like you can with a trigger_once.
true. Tell you what. I'll try it, and see what happens.
5 minutes later
env_beams have no target field. Sry!

but you wanted both ends to move, didn't you? Remember, the miniturrets in hl were always triggered by a beam, maybe this is how they did it! then you'd only need 1 trigger_hurt.
well, can you use an env_beam to trigger an entity? If so, create a trigger_hurt that covers the whole area of the beam's travel. Give it a name,set it's flag "start off" to true, and make a multimanager that will turn it on and off, or just on, if this is sp. (then you don't need the mm!) Then use the env_beam to trigger the mm or the trigger_hurt. (and set the trigger_hurt's damage to something like 300, always works for me.)
swinging climbable brush ropes: not possible in hl. (i'm depressing, arent' I!)
Moving climbable ladder: possible.

well not everything,but like you have an idea, make a simple map, and post it.
you're right though, some would take it and claim it as their own.

sony! shudder they make heavy laptops, so I don't like them! (bad reason) But yeah, I guess i'll just have to go with cakewalk, for the price.
@m0p: I can get a mixer/with extremely powerful software for about $2600 new, in fact the band that i'm in is using it right now to produce a cd! But it's only for macs. I have a pc. And i'm not getting a mac just to do recording.
if fscking home studio worked, i'd use that!

theblackviper: what software do you use? I've used cakewalk homestudio for years, but it doesn't work with windows xp. Also, I'm looking into a firewire mixing console, and does your program work with that?
Now to help you, I would recommend cakewalk products, because I've always found them easy to use and affordable.

well I think there should be guns, but not right away. And lots of breakable stuff. And maybe don't make the breakable stuff that obvious. I'll make a small map to show you what I'm thinking, and I'm still working on lab stuff... some of it's really fun! (translation: lots of gibs) and it is all stuff that could be modified to a "after disaster" version, and hurt the player. Remember:

maybe use the crowbar a lot in the beginning, make it so that when the player gets a gun, theyre' REALLY glad they got the gun! And make it a crappy pistol, or shotgun with not much ammo. Make it fun.
get someone to build you a custom one. I'm thinking about building a computer a little better than yours, loading it with linux, and doing about $200-250 worth of case mods. Sell it for about $7-800! Building a custom computer, you can save hundred$. Btw, you know what processes are absolutely necessary to start with winxp?
My laptop only has a 32, 64, or 128mb video card. ( I can change it in the bios)
do you play d3 still? It's a good game! the computer you have now, I would love one like that for my network, so that I can have a hldm lan party!! w00t
same. It needed to be plugged into an outlet to function, though! Orange display.
it's damage per second. I just put in a value (usually about 300) so that it gibs anything that touches it.
DOS 6.22I had to use dos 6.22 for several years on my primary computer because win98 crashed.
I HAVE a C64 ^^ Respect!I wish I still had my c64! It was cool! (but I didn't have a floppy drive for it, so it probably wouldn't have worked.)
Email it to me, i'll see if it runs well on mine, and give you my opinions.
well, if it is successful, it would make a good example map!
I don't know about surf maps, but the rats maps prob. don't lag because they are simple in design, there arent't more brushes than a normal size map, they are just bigger. That's my theory anyway.
My worst computer that I ever owned was a commodore 64.
yes, my parents have a 433mhz? celeron, it even sucks for solitaire and email!
technically, lcds have a refresh rate too, they never bothered to redesign the hardware, but I can't remember the details. Suffice it to say that I read it somewhere. Also, I'm not a huge fan of Sony, so i'm not "up" on their products. I've got a vaio pcg-k45, good computer, bad laptop. So I don't care about sony.
big deal. I pinned his head to the wall with a crowbar! It doesn't get any better than that.
