To do that, instead of targeting a light, you target a func_wall with an animated texture (+0 and +A) for it to visibly change. Still, that doesn't resolve the issue with multiple players.

For any single player game, it can be done perfectly with just a trigger_multiple; but as soon as a second player enters the scene everything will get messed up. I don't think it can be worked around.

OOH GOLDEN AXE! That was an odd game I got to play in my uncle's 286 computer in the early '90s. I think I've never understood it. Also OUT RUN, TITUS THE FOX, and other even more obscure games.

Check out STRIFE, it's an RPG mod on the DOOM engine. It's pretty good.

I never got that kind of videos in school. Or any kind thereof, actually. And nobody ever got pregnant - or laid for that matter, come to think of it. What would I know, it was an electronics school. We were all geeks, everyone was too busy coding or leveling up on RPGs.

Because urby is hot?

Downloading. From the screenies, I can only say it looks good but I have a problem with those chairs. Those are dining room chairs, not office chairs. I'd also turn them into func_somethings and set their angle to != 0.

That reminds me, there's something I've always wondered:

There are three checkboxes: Small radius, Medium radius, and Large radius. Can these be combined? Supposing I check Medium radius AND Large radius, does the sound radius cover 50% more than large radius alone?

I can't understand how some people get asleep so easily while commuting. I can't even close my eyes while I'm on anything that moves. Only on INSANELY long trips (say, >8h) I might get some bad sleep.
2. Cross room to turn off alarm (if it's next to my bed I just fall asleep again straight after turning it off).
At least it works for you. I've actually ceased to set any alarm at all, even if I have to walk across the room I somehow manage to go all the way to turn it off without being fully awake, then get back to bed like nothing happened.
if(college_day)
{
 if(laundry_day)
 {
  1. Wake up due to father entering room to pick up dirty laundry bag
 } else {
  1. Wake up due to father entering room to ask why am I still in bed
 }

 2. Immediately fall back asleep
 3. Suddenly wake up 2 hours later in half-panic because I don't know the time and I might be late
 4. Ponder for another hour whether to get out of bed or not yet.
 5. Gather the strength to actually get up.
 6. Get dressed.
 7. Go to bathroom
 9. USE bathroom
 10. Go to kitchen
 11. Get some chocolate milk and biscuits for breakfast.

 if(late_class_day)
 {
  12. Turn on computer
  13. Read email, twhl, forums.
 }

 14. Do last-minute homework
 15. Realise it's time to leave
 16. 15 minutes later, actually leave.
 17. Walk 5 blocks to bus stop.
 18. Take bus #42 to the end of the line.
 19. Arrive at main campus an hour later
 20. "Be" at class
 21. Go back to bus stop across the street
 22. Take bus #42, go back home.
 23. Get dinner
 24. Check email, twhl, forums
 25. Go to sleep

No time for mapping either. I have had some mapping inspiration go to waste in the past few days, I have way too much to do. And I don't foresee any useable holidays in the near future.

Well, he did give the country a terrible reputation. And that will haunt them for a while now.

STILL, raise hands those brainwashed into thinking "AMERICA ALWAYS SAVES THE WORLD". You can't go "saving the world" every time some asshat takes over some remote country - especially if you're not even directly affected. Such decisions should be made by a neutral group of countries in an international hearing. That's what The Hague is for.

Don't blame the people - it's the shitty governments' fault. BUT, do blame those gullible enough to accept their bullshit and support pointless wars without second thought. This kind of people exists in every country, though, but what can you do?

Crollo: Your photos are all starting to look the same. Different subject, but always the same setting and low light. I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just saying they all look pretty much the same.

Experiment with other settings - i.e buy some A0/A1 sized paper and use it as a solid white backdrop. Raid through your house and loot every desk lamp you can get your hands on (doing it on neighbours' houses is generally a bad idea) and use them as fill lights. For better effect, either shine them through a sheet of tracing paper or bounce them off a thick white paper or a piece of styrofoam.

Striker, go downtown and buy a padlock. Then use it on the gate to one of those caves you mentioned. Also, put a sign on it that says "RESERVED FOR TWHL - NO ENTRY".

The rest of us will proceed to add more concrete and safe doors to our basements.

So that's what this is about... you were tasked with designing new and innovative pools for the business and you're covertly relaying that onto us, hoping to avoid doing the major work.

I've cancelled my debit card just to be safe - I'll definitely not be storing the details of the new one in the PSN.
Perhaps you shouldn't have done it in the first place. Always distrust the system! After all, someone like you knows how it works. Why do you think I run away from online banking?
Ha. I don't have PSN or XboX live, or Steam, or facebook account. Even my fingerprints are not registered yet. My existence is questionable and I love it. I AM SHADOW MAN! na na na na na na na na.
I love that too. It would be awesome to remain like that forever. Except I wanted a driver's licence, so goodbye anonymity.

If I ever have a family, my wife will have to give birth at home, and I won't register my children. Then they will be able to fully enjoy that gift of anonymity as they grow up!
