Hey, anything that makes the process less fiddly and more practical would be a winner.

I would personnally shag the first person who came up with a solution.

Windows XP:

Right Click
-> Properties
-> Settings
-> Advanced
-> Troubleshoot
-> Hardware Acceleration Slider (Use 3rd notch from the left)

You have to switch it back to full in order to load HL (unless you want software mode) and you have to close your map each time you alter the slider otherwise hammer crashes but fuck it. Its as good a temporary solution as any.

Actually, this card is fucking awesome. I just lower the hardware support when I want to map.

The maximum number of entities a mm can handle effectively is 8. You can add more but as you experienced, they can become unstable.

But yeah, there's nothing to say you can't use more than one.

I tore him out of the Halo universe and dropped him in the Half-life one too late!
You know what they say: People caught up the Halo universe are best left there...or shot.

Ok, so they don't say that. Just me. More people should.

Meh, why bother with flashy keyboards? I've got a cheap ?6.99 unbranded black keyboard. Its a board, with keys on, and it works. Paying out ungodly prices for MP3 controls and Wireless (need to pay extra for batteries too...) makes about as much sense as buying a mobile phone for the camera.

</redundant technology rant>

Anyway, monitor looks swish. I had an 22" LCD a couple of years back. Awesome resolution but sweet jesus the thing weighed a ton. Down to a 15" TFT now.

Hey guys.

This is all down to an article I saw in this months PCGamer(UK) where they talked about streaming gameplay data between Supercomputers to low spec home setups and the like over the Interwebs. So for example you could play Crysis, Maxed Settings on an ASUS Ee PC jobby.

I have 2 PC's in my house.

My desktop PC:

AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5400+ 2.81GHz
2.00 GB of RAM
ATI Radeon HD 4670

and my fiancee's laptop:

Intel Pentium Core 2 Duo processor 2.00GHz
2.00 GB of RAM
Some cruddy built in GFx Card

I've created a wireless network up in this bitch and I'm toying with the idea of using my PC to stream gameplay between the two. Is this possible?

Not sure sorry. I've been using MS3D for years to do simple hack jobs and retextures but I've never encountered this problem. The method you described always works for me. However, I compile with MS3D itself rather than use StudioMDL.

A Half-Life movie COULD NOT have any of the main characters in it. First off, Gordon talking would be a big no-no and secondly, they'd have to look and sound the same as the game characters.

A decent Half-Life movie would focus on a group of rebels or even a metrocop, which brief mentions of the games characters and past events to get new audiences up to speed. City 17 is a big place and White Forrest is even bigger. Not every rebel met Gordon, Barney or Alyx.
