You say its the parents responsibility, but a large ammount of parents couldnt control their kids properly if their life depended on it...
Chavs and NEDs must have some pretty dumb parents

Where do you draw the line when it comes to violent video games?
I only ask because we are entering an age of photo-realistic graphics where VR could make games feel as real as.. well.. reality.
There is no doubt that games of this level of realism will arrive in the near future, and I am wondering whether you feel they should include guns.. and just about any other features of modern games...

you're just talking about force...
You dont 'walk lightly' on ice... You just dont step down as hard, or bring your feet up as high to minimize the force given to the ice when a foot lands.
And making yourself heavier? just force again, pushing down.

what is hard to understand about what TGR said?
STALKER just got a HUGE preview in this months PCGamer UK.
They passed their release date with no news, then made a long statement a couple of days ago, about how they were sorting out... Well, the general way that the game is held together.
They compared the levels to the photographs they got from Chernobyl and it was genuinly difficult to tell the difference

When making concrete, make your plain grey slab and then get a purply colour. Set a blurred round brush at opacity of around 10. Splash several dots of this purple onto the concrete. Make sure its random looking. Do the same with brown and green.
Finally, add a very small amount of noise.
The low opacity colours make it look like random murk, and the noise looks like the little grainy holes you get in concrete.
I've never tried with ice, but surely just a very pale blue/white, then make it translucent in hammer....
I agree with you about trying to make metal. Its the devil's work

is Spore appearing at E3?
I'm in. Muzz found my leak

the video goes into much more detail... many points about his sentance were left out of the article

its amazing how in the final compile i planned to do, i get a leak that i cant find... amazing
does the fact that he is getting so severely punished not make you think that he's not bullshitting?
also, there is a video (admittedly its quite old, but it still shows explosive shakes and dynamic lights)
treacle?
yeah, you can pick up 1 at a time, but still hold 10..
In HL, it was pick up 5 at a time and thats just stupid

Isaac Newton's life can be divided into three quite distinct periods. The first is his boyhood days from 1643 up to his appointment to a chair in 1669. The second period from 1669 to 1687 was the highly productive period in which he was Lucasian professor at Cambridge. The third period (nearly as long as the other two combined) saw Newton as a highly paid government official in London with little further interest in mathematical research.
Isaac Newton was born in the manor house of Woolsthorpe, near Grantham in Lincolnshire. Although by the calendar in use at the time of his birth he was born on Christmas Day 1642, we give the date of 4 January 1643 in this biography which is the "corrected" Gregorian calendar date bringing it into line with our present calendar. (The Gregorian calendar was not adopted in England until 1752.) Isaac Newton came from a family of farmers but never knew his father, also named Isaac Newton, who died in October 1642, three months before his son was born. Although Isaac's father owned property and animals which made him quite a wealthy man, he was completely uneducated and could not sign his own name.
Isaac's mother Hannah Ayscough remarried Barnabas Smith the minister of the church at North Witham, a nearby village, when Isaac was two years old. The young child was then left in the care of his grandmother Margery Ayscough at Woolsthorpe. Basically treated as an orphan, Isaac did not have a happy childhood. His grandfather James Ayscough was never mentioned by Isaac in later life and the fact that James left nothing to Isaac in his will, made when the boy was ten years old, suggests that there was no love lost between the two. There is no doubt that Isaac felt very bitter towards his mother and his step-father Barnabas Smith. When examining his sins at age nineteen, Isaac listed:-
Threatening my father and mother Smith to burn them and the house over them.
Upon the death of his stepfather in 1653, Newton lived in an extended family consisting of his mother, his grandmother, one half-brother, and two half-sisters. From shortly after this time Isaac began attending the Free Grammar School in Grantham. Although this was only five miles from his home, Isaac lodged with the Clark family at Grantham. However he seems to have shown little promise in academic work. His school reports described him as 'idle' and 'inattentive'. His mother, by now a lady of reasonable wealth and property, thought that her eldest son was the right person to manage her affairs and her estate. Isaac was taken away from school but soon showed that he had no talent, or interest, in managing an estate.
An uncle, William Ayscough, decided that Isaac should prepare for entering university and, having persuaded his mother that this was the right thing to do, Isaac was allowed to return to the Free Grammar School in Grantham in 1660 to complete his school education. This time he lodged with Stokes, who was the headmaster of the school, and it would appear that, despite suggestions that he had previously shown no academic promise, Isaac must have convinced some of those around him that he had academic promise. Some evidence points to Stokes also persuading Isaac's mother to let him enter university, so it is likely that Isaac had shown more promise in his first spell at the school than the school reports suggest. Another piece of evidence comes from Isaac's list of sins referred to above. He lists one of his sins as:-
... setting my heart on money, learning, and pleasure more than Thee ...
which tells us that Isaac must have had a passion for learning.

More old school Jedi Knight-style physics where shooting the body slides it across the ground and using explosives sends it flying around whilst still in it's dead 'pose'?bingo
your guns looked great, though!
[quote]Half-Life: Hostage Situation's list of features:
- A 100% functional monster_otis (from OppFor)
- Dynamic Lighting (firing weapons light up the world)
- Customizable HUD color (Pick a custom HUD color)
- MP5 max ammo in magazine changed to 30 (default: 50)
- MP5 bullet decals on every single shot
- Smokepuff when a bullet hits a wall (same as in CS)
- 1 grenade, 1 satchel charge, 1 tripmine: WYSIWYG!
- The world shakes on explosions.
- Mp3 playing entity!
- New weapons!
- Basic physics for dead bodies!
Standard models, standard textures, standard HUD.Bullshit, bullshit and bullshit
you know in your heart that you love this mod

The Compile Programs
These are the four programs that are used, and in this order:
CSG CSG stands for Constructive Solid Geometry. It's the map 'type' that Half-Life uses - the format for defining a 3D world. This program is a kind of pre-processor for the BSP tool. It breaks up your map geometry into simpler polygons so that the BSP program can handle it all.
BSP BSP means Binary Space Partition (don't ask), and it basically creates a playable .bsp file from the .map. This .bsp will have no visibility matrix and no lighting (so it'll probably be completely bright). Light and visibility are worked out by the next two programs.
VIS Although this program doesn't have to be run to make your map work, and you may not even notice a difference when you do run it, it is crucial for final compiles. VIS calculates which polygons are visible from every point in the map, so that only polygons visible to the player are drawn at each point. If not run, every polygon will be visible from every point in the map, which can cause major performance loss in big maps, or on slow PCs.
RAD RADiosity is the tool that'll probably take the longest to work. It lights your level, working out texture brightness and colour, and the brightness of the sky, etc. If RAD is not run, the .bsp will either be completely dark or completely bright, and if your map turns out like this, it's probably because of a problem that prevented RAD from running (or you forgot to make it run, or forgot to add lights).
Its amazing how much something stupid can inspire.
And here is what it inspired
note Habboi and ZombieLoffe may now have actually said the above statements
excellent<3
are you running RAD?
