TTD doesn't work on my windows. It installs fine but claims there are missing files.

I think we should revert back to the original map and now play politics.
We should sue huntey for every dime he has for the global suffering he has caused.

And the reason why it fizzled-
Original map was too small imo, and i think it should've been limited to that one map.

you had a good run rimrook ;)

EDIT

And after actually reading the 4th page, i'm working on an RPG for source.
Have the basic gameplay mechanics / leveling already complete.

Can it be done!?!

Yes.

Will it be done?

Probably not..

Unless someone wants to make maps? Houses, and stupid little quests to different villages, and boat trips and such

It's for half life 2.
I plan on using the episode 2 engine once i get a basic intro / storyline set up. There's ZERO coding involved, it uses math_counters, and triggered console commands.

Now, let's get back on topic.

I agree...we should all revert to the first map and play with that till eventually the whole world breaks into pieces then we just grab the hot glue gun and keep going :D

When we last left off, Hunternia was in a nuclear winter. Many nations of TWHUN sent relief and troops to help aid the people of Hunternia, to help refugees and dig out any survivors.

You could make all your brushwork and have someone else port your work and create the entities (is it not a simple thing to import hammer 3.4 geometry to hammer 4 i forget?)... or you could just steal a new computer.

No, this computer can handle source, I watched by brother play both HL1 and HL2 on it when he got them, but my connection is dial up, as I've said many times. Steam crashes while updating because it's taking so long. I may make brushwork, but it would look bad in source, It'd have to be textured again, and some of the goldsource brushwork stuff apparently does not work in source.

hahahahahahahah no. I don't even have my own mobile.
I'm not gonna move, either. We might be able to get satalite internet or something. If we get enough money to install it.
We're actually just a KM or so away from the radius of the local highspeed tower.
Can't wait until university. I'll actually be able to download and update by copy of HL2. Only I won't have time to play it.

Metallaya holds a massive rock concert in the Arena to raise money to give to Hunterna so they can get their own people out of there.

Some money raised will go to my military force so we can go kill that sea monster.

Cavalcadia sent a fleet of our finest steam-powered Submarines to help deal with the sea-monster.
They will wait for any other allies that wish to partake in the battle.

Meanwhile, Cavalcadia started a massive bridge construction project in hopes to link soviet-germany-australia.

I'm gonna start working on the RPG starter map. If i make good progress and get some decent media i might propose a mod.
Would be interesting to set a scale to the map (like 1024units / cm or something) and have each country founder create their own map(s) for their area.
compile it into a nice mod.

Only problem is, the mod will eventually need code. Which i'm currently looking into.. But the basic leveling and experience system can al be created using math_counters and basic console commands.

Urbania joins the TWHUN

Urbanian explorers under the rule of Morris Von Urban claim the eastern island of Isla Sueno (The Island of Dreams)

Morris Von Urban builds "Urban's Manor" and takes up a perminent residence on Isla Sueno.

Urbania establishes its own defense force. The Urbanian Defence Spec Ops (U.D.S.O) which monitors the security and well being of all major cities and includes a counter-terrorist operation.

Port Tara officials outlaw the import of piss weak beer and Huntey Centaurian manufactured automobiles.

Metallaya constructs a mechanical sea monster made to be identical to the one it will be used to fight against. Its colours have been modified to try and make it look stupider so the real one will be put off.
Unlike the original sea monster, this one is under my complete control. It also has been constructed with efficency in mind, with a missile launcher and two miniguns built in to it to give it an edge or two over the original.
The only con is that the robotics involved are still largely basic and prototype, so it will be less "intelligent" in a fight than the original.

In other news, Yvel has been founded.

I think I will go ahead a add a little something to this project, even though it is a bit late in the game. But I will be doing it in a different way, I will take this same map with everything in it so far, and lay it out in full 3D. Imagine walking over a floor with this same Planet TWHL map spread out on the floor, giving you a full 3D view of the world map as you walk over it! It will be pretty much like this:
User posted image
Confused? Don't be, it's simple: I just simply converted the Planet TWHL map as a "giant floor map" and put it in an online 3D world where you can walk right over it and look at it from a unque perspective. This 3D world is rendered through a full screen Java applet. It does not matter which web browser you have, as long as your PC has Java enabled.

Before you click on the bottom link to enter in 3D, please read the following:

Once you load up the 3D Java applet, you will be prompted with a user login popup box. If you don't want to enter in chat mode with an avatar in front of you, then just close the popup box by clicking on the "X". If you want to try out the chat mode with the avatar, then for now click on "I'm a male guest". Then for the avatar's name, just put your own. Skip the password box, don't put anything there. Now go ahead and click on "Log in".

Use the keyboard arrows to walk around, and to look around, press and hold the right mouse button while dragging the mouse.

Well, if you are ready, check out Planet TWHL map in Java web-3D: http://www.3dxplorer.com/view.php?k=MzE4OQ==

NOTE: The scene will take about 1 to 2 minutes load up, so give it some time.

I was going to visit Bat Country, departing from my habitat in the lovely Turtle Rocktown (just a mile north of Valveville), but upon entering the beautiful country I realised "I can't stop here!", and quickly made my way to explore Van Damme instead (it was a bit gay).

Lovely idea, I must say. I would've claimed a piece of land for myself if the world hadn't been covered already :) .

Edit: oh wait, I just noticed the second map. Maybe I'll snatch a piece.

... there's no land? Exactly. Well done. You earn a cracker. For this one we'll need to map out our own land. It can be any shape you desire. The only rule is that you can only use 4 connecting squares (think tetris pieces) and the borders must water (no blatant filling in of sqaures. You're mappesrs, map it out). As well, a color, country name, and capital must be defined.

Go for it.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, there are exactly 100 squares, which means a maximum of 25 people can own countries on this planet. Just a tidbit there.

It's not the fact that it was a penis (frankly if every land was penis shaped it'd be kinda funny) but rather the occupation of 30 sqaures or so.
