i also like the way the ground/cliffs are slightly stretched to give the impression of speed/

Yup, func_conveyors, looping portions of rock, and fog is how it's gonna be done. The r_speeds are also unbelievably low, with the w_polys staying around 300. I guess it's all the stretched textures.

Glad you guys like it.

Heh, I forgot the rear view mirrors, but I doubt anyone will notice. Ah, it's just a WIP anyway (although a nearly complete one).

LOL. I think "mirrors" are going to be the last thing players will be scrutinizing in that scene! ;)

That's awesome srry, I always thought that you where kinda bad at mapping but this has proven me wrong!

You have 4 on there. And they look more dated than time itself.

.co.uk? Uh.. Do we really need a website that serious?
How much would that cost per year?

Posted 17 years ago2007-03-07 14:31:39 UTC Post #215271
?6 (maybe slightly less) for domain (per year) - and something like ?2 or ?3 a month for hosting.
Posted 17 years ago2007-03-07 14:34:08 UTC Post #215272
?2.50/annum for the domain, and i have plenty webspace already.

i'm paying, but you guys gotta start updating more.

i'm sorry, but words cant describe how much i love this image. It symbolises HS so well.

We died, and were silent in the ground for several months, but now we're alive again and digging ourselves out the ground.

Soo... we consider this dead?

Posted 17 years ago2007-03-09 06:25:58 UTC Post #215399
Hey. I still have what I started on chapter 3. Even if this is dead I want to finish it for fun.
Posted 17 years ago2007-03-09 06:39:11 UTC Post #215401
...

I'm steadily working on my chapter, and if it doesn't get released, I'm gonna be pissed. Really. Pissed. It's been some pretty hard, yet interesting work thus far, and I'm not about to see it all go to waste.

That's not to say I'd worry too much about that happening. I'm constantly in contact with The Hunter, and he appears to be working as diligently as any. If anything is dead, it's the rest of the team's inspiration to map. I swear, it doesn't look like anybody but me, Hunter, and ChickenFist have turned out anything new since 2005. That's the real problem, in my opinion.

So if necessary, reassign some of the positions, but for heavens sake, do not let the first mod team I've worked with give up.

And coldfeet, your position was taken over by ChickenFist long ago. I don't think it's needed unless he too dies on us (for the second time.)
Posted 17 years ago2007-03-09 13:03:31 UTC Post #215412
what the hell?

Will you assholes stop saying this is dead?

Muzz - stfu, and get chapter 1 finished!

Coldfeet - you cant take a 2 year break then come back. You can release what you made as your own map, but don't assosciate it with Hostage Situation.

Srry - <3

No more shit. Get mapping or get out. This has been in production for a rediculously long time and it is NOT dead

a reminder to all HL:HS staff.

HS will only be shipped with one .wad (hostage_situation.wad)

For ease, please prefix all your custom textures with "hs_"

And dont say you've finished your chapter until you've compiled all the custom textures you've used into one .wad, so that i dont have to spend ages placing them all in the main one.

Fixage? It's not like the post can be deleted, he can just say something stupid and useless like "lol sorry dubble post". And if it's important "team news", it deserves a bump.

2 years old you say?

This mod is out of date. Time to scrap it all and start over in source.
