The texturing's a bit plain and inconsistent. The brushwork looks alright. Never stretch textures out of proportion! Don't use prefabs, and spruce up the rooms a bit. It's a big fancy research facility: large rooms can be daft shapes.

Just make a func_tank per the tutorial, check the active flag, and it will shoot the anus out of ya...Aah, but of course... it works fine in DoD.
Yeah, should work.
Not gunna work without custom code.
In the future, state clearly what mod you are mapping for. I've assumed you're talking about CS 1.6.

Nice. If you send me an empty 'frame', like the one you're in, I'll send you back a proper framed photo, if you want. More consistent.
Otherwise "pit" is probably a better term.
The Second Tower
Yes I did, is there something wrong with that word ? what would you use for a kind of big hole in the ground, something like a giant trench, but natural ...It's a very strange word. If it's just a line, like this, then I'd say "bank":
I didn't know, do you mean I should say "I need some cover!" or "get some cover!" instead of "I need a cover point!" or "get a cover!"Exactly.
The Second Tower
The sniper best point.
If you master (and can buy) the awp, if you know some terros will come from the lower exit, and if the place is free (it's quite tight though), then you can control the whole outside lower part of the map from this point ...
The best point for sniping. If you're skilled with, and can afford, the AWP, then this can be an excellent place for defence. It can control the entire outside lower part of the map, but there's no promise that even a single person will come that way. It's a tight squeeze, too.The Hangar Supervision Room (you should probably rename this "the control tower", if it's a place where people order the helicopters around)
A small room providing a wide field of view on the helicopter hangar, with a relative security.
This room is one of the "terminals" of the base inside watch path, enabling the counter-terrorists covering the bombsite B to quickly backup A.
This small room provides a good view of the helicopter hangar and is relatively secure. It is one of the critical points of the base's inside watch path and enables the CTs to quickly get between the bomb sites.The Main Tower
The main tower provides the best watch point on the surface in the beginning of the round. While providing too a good cover for the CTs, the place is not on an other hand the best one to attack, because of the limited vertical field of view (the terros can hide along the wall).
The main tower provides the best watch point on the surface in the beginning of the round. While providing good cover for the CTs, it is not easily secured, as terrorists attacking the point can hide along the wall (if they make it that far) and are unseen from the tower itself.
I very much doubt it.
It's conventional not to reply to very old forum topics, by the way, with a similar question. Just make a new thread in future :).

I wouldn't bet on being able to connect them over any distance you feel like. I don't know if the link is serial, which is far better over long distances, or parallel, which is very poor (hence PC hard drives generally have to be very close to the motherboard, etc.). Googled?
The term is "helicopter pad", usually just shortened to "helipad". There's no other way to say it, really. Those zany Yanks might call it a "heliport", though, but I'd never heard that before checking the spelling of "helipad" on the (American) dictionary.com.
My guesses for bonusquiz: Tractor Tire and Street Railway.Ah, of course, you have trams there. Definitely tramlines... I thought they seemed a bit narrow.
Bonus-quiz! Guess what this is and you can win more photos to view.Large tyre.
Bonus-quiz again! A small hint: there's a second one, about one metre to the rightGutter?
Nice to see you again, anyway.

Foo Fighters - Hey, Johnny Park!
Mostly very good English, but the phrasing is a little strange in some cases, so here are my suggestions, in the format "section title", "old paragraph", "my version of the paragraph":
The Helicopter Runway[b] (eh? Helicopters don't need runways? :|)
[quote]The half-open hangar door makes players who enter or exit the helicopter room vulnerable, so the CTs have to either wait in the bombsite room, use the sniping points or camp in the corners, or directly attack the terros coming from the mountain path ...[/quote]
[quote]The half-open hangar door leaves players entering or exiting the chopper room vulnerable, so the CTs either have to wait in the bomb room, sniping and camping in the corners, or attack the terrorists head-on as they come from the mountains.[/quote]
[b]The Hangar Access
Important note: "cover" is a "mass noun", like "water" or "software". You never have "a water" or "two waters": it is always "water": "some water" or "lots of water".

[b]The Hangar Access
Linking the counter-terrorists spawn room and the helicopter bomb site, this tight path is useful when the round starts for quickly cover A, but once the round started, the access becomes very hard to use because of the tightness, the ladder and the insane camp points ...
This tight path links the CT spawn and the helicopter bomb site. It's a good quick path to A at the beginning of a round, but the corridor quickly becomes a deathtrap with narrow walls and camping galore.The Inside Watch Path
Very strategic path for the CTs, this watch path links the bombsites and enables fast reinforcements.
Players mastering strategy and teamplay can make a great advantage of this map axis. A good player can make this area safe for his whole team.
This path connects the bomb sites and enables quick movement between the alternatives for both teams. A good team can take great advantage of the route, especially if well-covered by skilful team-mates.The Bomber Room
The bomber room is the bomb site B.
With a gameplay similar to the de_nuke surface bomb site, this room provides a lot of space where to move, hide, dodge, launch grenades and ... plant the bomb...
All the entries are easy to control, but the problem is that they are numerous...
The second bomb site provides similar gameplay to the de_nuke surface site. There's lots of room to hop around and fight, but there are many different ways for your enemy to rush in and out.The Bomber Runway
An open area with almost no cover that links the bomber room and the base gateway.
The two paths leading to this area are difficult to use, because of their tightness, and this makes this area quite hard to attack but easy to control.
The two paths leading here are tight and precarious, making this area much easier to defend than attack. There is very little cover for prospective rushers to dart between.The Path to the Runway
A tight and dark path in the mountain where players have to crouch to go through.
This path is usually used by aim maps fans and snipers masters who like better open areas instead of closed rooms (terrorists rushing B from the right exit).
A good place for sniping, this small dark path in the mountain can offer a good way for the terrorists to suprise the defenders, but can only be passed through in a crouch.In Front of the Base
Providing an access to the underground hall, the base yard and the bomber runaway, this area may be very important at the beginning of the round, when CT still have no clue about the terrorists strategy. This area is a good opportunity to see what terrorists are planning.
Providing access to the underground hall, base yard, and bomber runway, this area is likely to be of importance at the start of a round as the CT team try to figure out the terrorists' [m](yes, that apostrophe (') is in the right place)[/m] tactics.The Road
The road is really a multipurposed area : counter-terrorists can use when the round just started to try to break a terro surface attack, while it may become a crossroad for terrorists once it is secured. It provides on an other hand a cover for the underground hall rushers...
This road is a multi-purpose area: the counter-terrorists can use it early in the round to try and combat a surface attack on the part of the terrorists, or the Ts can rush through into the base if it is left undefended. It also provides good cover for those charging the underground halls.The Base Yard
This area is quite easy to defend for the CTs, as the terros can only enter through a few points, but they have all the same to give their best because it directly leads to the both bombsites...
From the yard you can reach the towers, the walls, the road and the CTs room.
This area is quite easy for the CTs to defend as there are few entrances, but it's also a very direct route for the Ts, and, as such, is likely to be very tempting to them. The towers, walls, road, and CT room can all also be reached easily from here.The Subsidence (a perculiar title... did you get it straight from a dictionary?)
The subsidence provides some good covers, but prevent terrorists from seeing possible rushing counter-terrorists.
This area is good for siege attacks, where terrorists try to eliminate CTs on the walls before to proceed further, but make them vulnerable against grenades ...
The subsidence provides some good cover, but leaves terrorists unable to see any CTs storming their position from the road or across the grass. The Ts can try to eliminate any CTs headstrong enough to try and charge their position, but they are easy prey for counter-terrorist grenades.The Terrorists Spawn Zone (just call it "the terrorist spawn")
The terrorists start the round here.
They can either rush on the surface from the left or the right exits, or go into the sewers with breaking the grids of the vent. They have to hurry to settle an attack strategy else they could be overrun by counter-terrorists rushers ...
The newborn terrorists can either rush across the surface via the right or left exits or go into the sewers by breaking through the vent covers. They have to organise themselves quickly to avoid being attacked by aggressive counter-terrorists in their own spawn.The "Grass" Area
One of the most open area of the map, the "grass" area offer a wide field of view, but make players very vulnerable too, because of the lack of covers.
If you are a "rusher", liking quakish fragfests, meet there, you will have some action ...
One of the most open areas of the map, the grass offers a good view of the map, but the lack of cover leaves players crossing it very vulnerable. People who enjoy Quake-ish fragfests will have fun here.The Path in the Mountain
This path is the main way to quickly reach the bombsite A for the terrorists.
CTs and Ts who "rush A" generally meet in the corner of this area. Retreat isn't really possible for the Ts, as reinforcements for the CTs, so it's mainly a matter of speed and aim here...
This is usually the most popular way for the terrorists to get to bomb site A. CTs and Ts who try to rush to that bombsite are likely to meet here for a quick fight to the death.I think that's all of them. Phew! If you don't understand words I've used, or why I've changed things, please ask.
Important note: "cover" is a "mass noun", like "water" or "software". You never have "a water" or "two waters": it is always "water": "some water" or "lots of water".
Haha, funnee :).

Louis Armstrong - We Have All the Time in the WorldGreat guy.
No Nina Simone? Tut.
I'm not gunna spend a couple of days sorting that out now. When the time comes to re mark-up all the tutorials (<weeps>), we can do stuff like that.
Yeah, do.
Hey, relax man. No hurry.
It's very well-produced and fairly funny, although I doubt it'll remain so for long. Not much subject matter to cover.
Wasn't formatting your hard disk a little hasty? 
It is largely just Cyrillic. Doesn't remind you of the signs in-game?
I think it looks excellent... just the building's lighting looks poor from that angle. Cover that up, and the HDR looks much nicer in my opinion.
I think it's hilarious, but find the use of Russian letters instead of English ones which "look sort of similar" very confusing. Like where it's meant to say "ah", it actually says "dn", in Russian.
Texturing?
Heh, it's funny.
Even if it does, which is very unlikely, it would be a complete waste of money. Question answered.
I will. Probably this evening.
Wewt!
was that just American with Russian/German(or any other European country) lettersENGLISH, IDIOT!
Internal Beta Two may be ready in a couple of days time.Another ready next weekend, maybe?
The lighting is all exceedingly yellow :.

2. Get Zoner's tools from the Links page.
3. Read the tutorials!

M0p says everything sucks.I think his advice on computing matters is pretty widely accepted :P.
Get Process Explorer, run it, File -> Save As, and e-mail me the text file.
You could keep triggering and re-triggering the train, but I wouldn't bet on the timing being deadly accurate. How close to ninety degrees need the turns be?
Yes, it shows it every single bloody time. Idiotic developers.
DDR2 is useless at the moment.
Hehehe, it is funny.
That font is fucking awful, though. Hideous.

Yeah, m0p says DDR2 sucks thus far. AMD are building new cores for their 64-bit CPUs which support DDR2, so they might do a better job than Intel have.
If i build my own with that ammount of cash, i'll be spending time, and i have very little of that.You don't have half an hour (decent speed) or two minutes (claimed m0p speed)?
It does all the time.
Anti-virus?
Anti-virus?
Do. I kill a ridiculous amount of stuff when I play... like, everything, pretty much. I leave Apache and the Windows Audio service.
or an A64 San Diego, or a Venice if you are on a budget, FX57 if you have plenty of cash), plus an nForce4 board and a 6800/7800Sweet: I'm looking at a San Diego on an nF4 with a 7800 :).
So, m0p, relatively good-quality DDR1 > relatively good-quality DDR2 for gaming, at the moment?
No.
