added: a fan in the vent, custom floor textures, various lighting fixes. a friction enterty in one of the rooms with an oily custom texture on the floor,
need to put a light in the vent on the 2nd building, connect that vent to the vent system, make buyzones, move hostage rescue zone to T spawn area and make the 2nd quater of the building...

I realized that ever since I started mapping, I appreciate the everyday beauty of the mundane objects around us. I get mesmerized by the subtle way light penetrates the leave of a tree. I am impressed by the reflection of boats in the cobalt-blue water. And at night, I am particularly seduced by the lone street lamp, guarding the silence of the neighborhood.
We live in a wonderful and beautiful world. Never would I expect that virtual reality would make me appreciate the real world better.
What a wonderful world.

I've put some of my textures into custom.wad however I downloaded lights.rad and that made all my light emmiting textures acctually emmit light so I've got a lot too many light sources, at the moment I've removed all the entrys for lights.rad except for my pepsi vending machine and will need to either delete a lot of my light entities or keep my light emmiting textures out of the lights.rad file. or perhaps on the lights with a flicker/pulse make the texture emmit a small amount of light only.
The Pepsi vending machine looks fantastic, I'll include it in the next screen shot of this map!

after working on my glows I've submitted TEST2b, got some photos for custom textures today inc. a really good tread plate I'll use, just need to get them off my phone... haha I love IRDA!!!
the problem I was having with the strange object on the floor was caused by a light fitting having the func_pushable atribute!
I've sized and set up my pepsi vending machine textures ready to be put in a custom WAD.
After seeing the playboy mag in DEA4 I've decided to put my picture on the cover of 9>90 magazine and have that on the floor by the T spawn point.

been playing with volumetric light for low viz effects until 3:30 last night so didn't wake up until 12. I'm going to leave the low viz idea for now, it dosen't work because of the wave action of the func_water. I'm going to find what sky was used for AS_Highrise because that would work for my map better than what I'm using at the moment.

HL2 out Yeeha! Too bad, I have to wait a month or so before I get a chance to play it. But still... Yeeha!
All this HL2 stuff. I'll just content myself with the original on my crappy computer for now.
I'm not low spec, I'm old skool...honest.

:PHL2 FOR EVER. 
i think I am going to be sick with excitement...
Half-Life 2...so close...

Mmmm hl2 is amazing
Tonight might as well be Christmas Eve for Half-Life 2 fans. It's only a matter of hours before Heaven descends onto Earth. Just be careful not to bust a hernia from being overjoyed.
And I can't believe that there are still people posting new maps into the vault the night before HL2's debut. It's hard to garner interest to play old HL1 once the new game is out. At least not for a while.
