You're making such cool stuff, Cap'n!! Awesome
You're reading some pretty heavy stuff, guys! Don't forget to leave room for laughter 
I committed to re-reading the entire Discworld series at the start of lockdown. Currently on 38 out of 41. Gonna be very sad when it's finished again. RIP, Terry. I've gotten so much more out of them this time round - I was just too young to get half of the jokes or concepts as a kid. Stupendously good universe to immerse yourself in.
Otherwise I'm big into crime thrillers and satire. Christopher Brookmyre & Carl Hiaasen are huge influences on my own creative work. Both gritty and dark, but with absolutely gut-punching satire that just floors me.
I'd like to get more into Sci-fi and Fantasy, as I'm sure I'd enjoy them, but they're quite intimidating genres to dip your toes into unguided. The top of my list is The Three Body Problem which has been recommended to me by so many people.

Great questions.
1.
I use the wheel for scrubbing forward and backward through footage. The gear paddles are used to Mark In and Mark Out (engage with clutch to Go To In or Go To Out) and the pedals are used to cut, trim or roll as needed. With this setup combined with the chair, I can usually edit at around 300kph
2. Absolutely, that's the one down-side. I wanted to go all-electric, but the tech is still too expensive.
3. Whilst in Premiere Pro, I use a replica of Lando Norris' 2020 Silverstone grand prix helmet designed by a six-year-old.

It's primarily going to be HLDM, but I'll probably do a version for CS
Work got absolutely crazy so I haven't had time to work on this for a week or so. Really looking forward to finishing it. I think my racing chair will be the next big challenge.
Lovely shots, Admer!
Can't see your image, I have a plan
Here's a question: Why aren't you following me on Instagram yet? You should all do that post-haste.

I might be missing something, but isn't Black Mesa in the Goldsource engine... Half-Life?
This is the best thing I've downloaded named HL:Source since... Well... Ever.
There's a fair few people involved in this on Discord, but just to give it the best chance I'm gonna extend it to March

Hah. Bliddy marvelous
does the button have a target?
does the button have a name?
does the button have a master?
does the button have any flags set?
what FGD files are you using?
does the light have "initially dark" set in flags?

Following on from the success of Jessie's func_vehicle jam, I've got another mapping challenge to occupy our bored, locked down minds for the start of 2021. (Aus and NZ can take part too, despite having pretty much figured this whole Covid thing out).
In honour of working from home, the goal of this mapping challenge is to turn your workspace/bedroom/home office into a classic padman-style rats map.
Scale is up to you, although being actually fun to play is important so I recommend making it big enough to be a good deathmatch arena.
We want to see creative use of items to aid navigation, a clever use of the furniture for routing and of course photos for comparison!
This map jam will end on the 21st of March 2021, plus the obligatory 2-week extension.
Jessie will stream the entries, as per, and makes a special request to also include theme-accurate func_vehicles which i wholeheartedly do not condone.
Feel free to use any Goldsource or Source game, singleplayer or multi. If we get a bunch of HLDM maps I'll put them on a server as per usual, though.
You could even make a rats rats map, although that might break the universe.

Stroyschool is where?
added to the server
Anyone know if there are any optimisations I can make to the server to have it perform better with vehicles? The difference playing offline and playing on the server with vehicles is... notable.
Zeeba sent it via email, so I've mirrored it here.

it's dark wizard magic and I shall thank you not to use it again.
Here's an idea for others, if you're looking for ideas: a rocket vehicle with the glow sprite following itDid I miss something? How are you getting a sprite to follow a vehicle in vanilla CS? Also these effects keyvalues are completely new to me as well!
is that sven? Lovely atmosphere you've created
I haven't been this frustrated by a map in years. Goddamnit func_vehicle is the worst 
is Cs 1.6 expert 8.0.5 fgd the right choice?
after 16 years of mapping for Half-Life, TIL about impulse 197
She's turned the normal maps against us.
Whisky
Never tried it. What's a whisky? What? I don't have a whisky stash in my office. I certainly never drink it at work. WHO SENT YOU?(bonus points for spelling it the correct, Scottish way, TJB

I feel like you've been working on this map for as long as you've been alive
maybe start with what your mod is
My personal proof for Christianity being true and Christian God being real came from understanding of and application of physical sciences and sheer logic.I desperately want to see what leaps of logic you've taken to arrive at this black and white a statement, but I know this is not the place.
If it makes you happy.
You don't like the new Doom games? But they're so good 🥺

I'm not playing the Core.This is a pretty sizable club you've joined
I lol'd at this way too much
I really enjoy this brief. Top marks, briefman
You'll never keep me and my kind oppressed, Jessie. Cheese haters unite!
Food: Whatever my mom cooksOne of my colleagues is from Chennai and he and his wife make the most incredible food. I don't know if that's south-India enough, but if your mom's cooking is similar, I'm very jealous
