Hmm..
I've told myself countless times that i will start mapping for source as soon as competition 'so and so' is over.
Well that never happens.
Ever.
I can't wait until i get the rest of my computer built (it's gonna run vista) so i can actually have an excuse to map for source only.
Apparently Vista hates Hammer 3.4 + 3.5
I'm overjoyed.

I am also having difficulty converting to the ways of source.

I know for a fact I'm going to finish my C&C 3 cine-mod before I do so, however.

Dang I saw the first few words of this journal and I thought you were going to say:

"I've told myself countless times I'm beautiful..."

Where I'd reply with yes, yes you are.

And Vista works fine with old stuff now. Ask Hunter.

I can map for HL1, but not with as much ease as I used to be able to, due to the OpenGL preview window in 3.5. I can preview the map fine, but can't select brushes in 3D. It's a pain in the arse, so I'll just wait until a certain sollution comes along.

However, I only actually want to map for HL1 to finish HS. Source is infinitely better in every way. It's got a ridiculously better system for handling entities and triggers, is sexier and allows you to do so much more.

People who don't make the plunge (I used to be one of them until i was forced to change) are kidding themselves.

Source is better. end of.

I know source is better but once i get into it i just get freaked out and fall back on the infinitely more familiar goldsource

I'm in the same boat as Tetsu0, unfortunately that boat is sinking. Fast

With the ever-increasing conflicts with half-life and my newer hardware (my graphics card in particular) I know for a fact I'm switching completely to source after I finish my C&C3 cine-mod. I'm thinking I'll scrap my original mod project too, the space station one. Maybe I'll continue it later in source.

Simply put. Go to source, its the way of the future.
