Here it is! Santa's Revenge is FINISHED! I was pushing to make it by christmas but I managed it. Here's the short story:

Have you got a grudge against Santa?
Let me guess he didn't give you what you wanted for Christmas? Get your own back in Santa's Revenge!

Santa has gone insane!

That's right, He's no longer putting lumps of coal in all the children's stockings. He is taking vengeance on all the naughty, ungrateful children by capturing and killing them. Without the kindness of their leader to pacify them, his elves are killing on
sight! Grab your Xmas Treebar and your Gattlin' Cannon and get out there to save the children and STOP that Santa.

This Single Player mod contains five maps, new weapons, textures and models. There is no Multiplayer,
but using Spirit of Half-Life, there are surprises around every corner. In your quest to stop Santa, you will
face his small army of elves, dwarves and magical snowmen as you progress through Santa's workshop.

This download is 20 mb and contains an install program that will install Santa's Revenge to your computer.
Please read the information and license agreements before installing Santa's Revenge. If you need help or
any useful tips for when you get stuck then email me at hlife_hotdog@email2me.net - I'll send you the tip sheet.

I uploaded a set of example maps to the example map vault demonstrating HL trigger_changelevel and info_landmark entities.

Also uploaded an example map for a dropship moving in, dropping a soldier and flying off; uploaded an example map for demonstrating aggressive behavior for an apache that seems to continually seek a better firing angle on the player as the player moves down a hallway.

I have my first REAL show tomorrow night at the webster theater in Hartford Connecticut.

It's pretty cool to see how far my band has come in only 2 years. We went from playing coffee houses for free, to playing at hooters restaurants for cash, and now we have a real venue to jam out at.

All we have to do is sell 6 more tickets and we're golden!!

Oh i cant wait its gonna be sick.

ANd..... im workin on a new hldm map. Modeled after some abandoned processing plant thing. Looks pretty good so far but im only about 30% done with it and i have NO CLUE where im gonna put any spawns or weapons.
Oh well. that'll come in due time i suppose

So.. What's new?

Well, I'm working 7 days a week until the 30th, yes that includes christmas eve. Hey, I don't celebrate it so I might as well make some money. After the 30th, I should have around 5000Sek, which translates into ~700 us dollars if my math isn't completely screwed. Might be, it's late.. Anyways, I'm going to start the year with a massiva shopping spree. I want a new mp3 player and a new guitar.

Other "news"; I bought Twilight Princess (the GC version, can't afford a Wii yet) and I absolutely love it. It is definitely the best Zelda game. It even pwns my old favorite, Ocarina of Time. There's no excuse for not getting this game, period.

And finally, I got a hold of a beta key to "The Burning Crusade", the expansion to WoW. Just need to download 2.13gb worth of files then I'm set to go!

With so much happening this month, I haven't had any time to map at all! But I do have an idea for another Zelda-type puzzle, if I can get around to it. One of the earlier temples in Ocarina of Time, where you go through a twisted passage and the entire dungeon twists as you run through it. Then, when you shoot a button, the hallway straitens out. If you've played OoT you know what I'm on about :P

As for the things happening this month, it was my birthday on the 2nd, got my Wii on the 7th, I just got my Exit Statement from the Government, (OP2 for any Queenslanders out there), my mum's just had surgery, I've had to buy Christmas presents for everyone, and of course play my new Wii, show everyone in my family how it works, read quite a few books, lots of fun CS:S nights with the IRC fellas, finish playing OoT (I finished a day before I got my Wii with Twilight Princess :D ), and a whole ton of other things.

Watch this space, afterwards i will post a 'month in review' with lots of pics, lol.

I have no life, all I do is the following (in order of what is done the most):
  • Sleep
  • School (including homework)
  • Computers
  • Video Games (on platforms, not the computer)
  • Eat
  • Television
  • Chess
  • D & D
Perhaps this list will be updated once summer vacation comes along.

Whew, back from an all-nighter lan. It was awsome, especialy since there was TONS of pizza, drink and sweets. And lots of gaming (28 hour non stop), with tons of real-life 1337 speak. ;) "OMFG Jimmi you noob haxor! That was so un-1337". They also dont know my real name, so call me Jimmi. Also tons of leeching off the network, ah, 48 gigs of Japanese anime for me! :biggrin:
