After finally checking responses to my last challenge map...I have decided to make a sequel...storyline is something like this:
After making it out of the tomb you are picked up by a combine patrol...not knowing what to do with you they throw you in an old abandoned jail that once was owned by a rogue combine who was story crazy...he had 1 way to get out but to do that you have to activate a series of machines and accomplish tasks (get gas, turn on pump etc...)
You will start in your jail cell...door unlocked and you have to find your way out
Sound good??

going on my 3rd TWHL year in 25 minutes
Apple released a cheaper version of the Macbook yesterday. Its essentially the same thing judging from the specs, minus a 7200RPM drive. Its also only a 13 inch screen (you still get a pretty nice resolution though, and I prefer a laptop that doesn't require you to attach wheels on it and ride it just so you can transport it).
I just wish you could upgrade to a 7200RPM drive. That's the only thing that's stopping me rushing out and buying one right now.
Specs for joo.
Edit: Aww, double dang. It's a crappy onboard GFX card. Guess that's a no to the MacBook. Back to the MacBook Pro for me.

I created a little tool that scans a .map file for texture scales. You enter the minimum and maximum allowed scale and the tool writes a report for you, showing which brushes (ordered by entity) offend those scales as well as a little more info on how to use this information.
Usefull when you get the annoying 'Bad Surface Extends' error.
Uploaded an item_dynamic_resupply example map.
30 more logins and I have 1000! Ya dawg! Cant wait for my 1337 login!

Twas nerve racking...He spent an hour telling me all the parts of the car and then for the 2nd hour I drove all around my neighborhood and boy was I shitting myself when we came to busy traffic...Most of the time I kept sterring off the road as changing gears requires a fair amount of thought...Plus my feet are short so XD
Amount of times stalled: 2

I seem to have made myself a member even though i was only looking for a tutorial on how to set up Hammer. Well a little bit about myself then as an intro.
My name is Chris and i live in Doncaster, United Kingdom. I am 22 in 3 weeks exactly. I have never modded before but thought i would give it a go. Sadly my computer isn't up to spec to play Half-Life 2 but i have it for the X-Box. Never really liked HL1 but i guess i will get to know it better now.
I am currently working on my first project after doing the intro tutorial. This will be a large map and wil give me oportunity to try out all of these wonderfull tutorials. I will be making a load of new textures for it and hope to get some good feedback. I will be helped, if you call it that, by my freind who will be called bOb. He is a serious HL1 player but doesn't have access to the net so any and all comments will be posted through me.
Well i think that is enough. Must get back to shouting at Hammer.

"Hello Hugh! This is your 500th login. Awesome."
Hurray, 300 logins in around 100 days. That whole Dunce Americans thread really brought me into TWHL.
And as a "present" for those of you who read this, you can look at this non-exclusive in-editor screenshot of my Reissues/Snarkpit compo map.

Day 14,
Narrowly missed a second misunderstanding yesterday. I am noticing a distinct level of such events around here, not only involving myself, but many of the regulars that by now should have grown well beyond such trivialities.
Upon reflection, the research I have been doing into the poor level of reading might be the root cause. At first it was thought to be a simple case of English not being the first language but after further study this proves out to not being the case.
More study is warranted but I am beginning to suspect its simple immaturity and/or prideful separatisms. If this is the case, only time and maturity will cure it.
Stay tuned for more info.
