Well I just thought that you should just keep making the maps, if you keep making them, when u import them into new Hammer at least you have something to start off with. I'm not talking about adding details, just basic outlines, don't even make entity's As I said, that way you at least have some basics / layout and when hl2 comes out then you can edit and add.

Hello??? I just asked to be on the list and I dont think I am??? Can I be in tycell's spot or 20th next soonest???
I made this av, Im damn proud of it too 
The texturing for the walls is terrible. You really cannot get around that. Misaligned, repetative, boring. I suggest you add some structure. Support colums along the sides of the walls, more pipes and maybe some steam on the ceiling.
Ahem, arn't I the completely nice and honest guy too? j/k
I really think that your list of 20 dudes shouldn't include having double people, you and ministeve should be 21 and 22.
Yeah, I posted that after looking at the first page... Well I want to be back on this. I was on the old list, so its only right ehh? 
You forgot about lil ol me!!! Add me to the list!!!

Yes that was the one, but ours is different... Not super but it is.
Jahzel, you really should keep mapping and making things - u said it yourself they can be converted. Also, I was poking around and I found a mod just like this (Don't say I told u so). Its a zombie infestation but the plot is different. It isn't about escaping from the city ... yeah ...
Whatever the hell u said, u completely lost me.
Wow... all this debate... to tell u the truth I have never finished the single player and dont really plan too.
If you have 56k modem basically.
Well u didnt lose any rep from me, I tried em once, too see what they were like (I promise I do not use them on a normal basis) - couldnt even get the aimbot to work. Anywho, they aren't to hard to find. Google it, try cheatcc or something like that. Most websites that have the word game in the name are preety trustworthy. (Not to be a prick but you don't have a too big of a rep anyway that I know of)
I think the catagories should Architexture, Detail, Layout, Lighting, Overall. Now this is getting complicated, but based on the rating (1-10) of those, if atom could devise some system (for the comp[uter to do) to automatically do a star rating (1-10).
faux shading??? see you probably understand all those insane words on their lil faq
Getting rid of anonymous posts sounds good and all, but all its going to do is make people join, post like 3 things, and leave. I came to this site because of all its tutorials lol (Just a lil info).
Well I don't mean to nit-pick but if Pepper "left" (even though he didn't really), it doesn't show good admin characteristics.

U don't know how happy that makes meAhh, well sorry about that I am sadly mistaken.
To understand which axis you want it to spin on, look at the window of your editor u want it on. At the top it says 2 axis - the one that it doesnt say is the axis of that window.
Well hopefully you understand the basic's of lights.rad - its a normal texture, you don't have to do anything special about it. All that you need to worry about is adding its name to lights.rad
Upgrades? Wtf are those? J/k I figured those out today lol
Using GFCscape or w/e its called we can make high-def steam textures. Look at my hL2 editor thing and click on the link - textures will be so much easier and better to make in HL2.
I used to think that dynamic lighting was what the in-editor was but I was wrong. Btw, I have seen the trailor and believe me I got excited when I saw them - on the docks one the water kinda reflects but I don't remember if the player shows up in the reflections (kinda like the "mirrors" we have where you dont). One feature I am looking forward too is entity's-in-entity's !
lol thx for sayin that again hazardous - everyone gets confused at time 
Also that just made me remember - with hl2 u can link together entity's so that shouldn't be a problem (that is a fact).
I know a way that we could get it to "move" across the sky using a multimanage but the only reason this wouldn't work for half life is that there is no dynamic lighting (there is in hl2) - it would move but the shadows would stay the same - it would look really bad. Making this into an hl2 mod is the best we could do.
Btw, Jahzel if you really want people to keep this up ur going to need to post some more mouth droolin' screenies!!!

Well I am not going to start mapping for NS until I figure out how to play it lol, I die like 10 times and cant kill a single alien/human (I like aliens better so normally I am them)
Yeah I downloaded it- looks preety cool. Well since everyone else is mapping 4 it I figure I will have a go at it. Can some1 tell me where to get the fgd I looked around and saw the new list but no fgd for it - do I manually write everything in? :
Well it looks good so far, if only I has Natural Selection or even heard of it (I am so newbish at time)
This isn't a spirit mod :/
That would take some1 who knows how to code. As far as I know, we don't have one.
Ahh 1 more question - R they going to have real-time relections? Like actual Mirrors? IT would be sad if they didnt.
OK I am mainly posting this 4 people to see but I also have a question - for info about HL2 Editor go here
http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?faq=source_mod_faq
And my question is...
Does the 3D view of the new editor render lights 4 you without compiling?

OK I am supposed to have barney sitting down and thats what I have his animation as (to start on his actual entity), but he starts out standing, wuz up with that?
Also, you should get a teal color and use that as the water texture, it looks real nice, like your in the carribeans.
You know that there already is a map thats exactly that right? It was made by Nipper, I have it but I forget name.
life gear? is that a mod ur making?
U guys assume to much. Atom is one busy guy I guess
Hazardous, your right, its a "horror idea" how thats relevant to hl1orHL? I dont know. A big city with lots of zombies is exactly what we need, and its what HL? offers. Wtf is up with hl1? Why do you think so many people are going to stay behind. If your a true hl fan your going to go to HL? - thats a fact.
Yes, their the only ones that really matter anyway. There was a poll script at one time? Then by all means it should be easy to give someone admin powers over it. Because then people can vote on things. I just got another idea, if we do the ranking system there could be a sub-admin only poll, to decide important issues.
Cmon andy spill it!
Well I think that the rating system is the best idea we could have lol. I have experience in that sort of thing because a clan I was once in had that exact thing, and you did get awards and things for doing well on the server and stuff. I really like the idea of being able to go for awards and getting "titles" under your name alot!
We should also have a poll thing that admins can call with public results you know? It could solve debate over forum topics and things much easier.
And for the rating system, it could be like the map rating thing (how it was for me) and you get ranked from 1-5 stars. Ok, and I haddd to bring this up once again for ATOM TO HEAR.
How about letting us post up animated gif''s for avatars. I would be and admin for checking that sort of stuff to make sure there isn't any hardcore graphics/text/ other extreme situations.<-----------ATOM LOOK!

OK I do not think there was any sort of debate in that solution. Everyone in this forum except for pepper and hazardous thinks it should be in hl2. And the last time I checked it was Jahzel's mod and it sounds like he has made the decision for what its going to be. Why the hell do you want it norm hl, when it can be 2x better than it is and make it hl2? "There will be a flood of mods for hl2 when it comes out" is a terrible excuse. And who said that its near finished? I completely disagree with that too based on these forum posts, no one has said ANYTHING about THE MOD for a while now. Besides, as I said b4, its Jahzel's mod and its his choice.
Uh, no one joins ur mod if ur not mapping. And also if u wanna impress some1 then post a pic of ur re-skinned guns.
Your really ruining the chance that you might have. Yes yes, its a nice thought that people will still play hl when hl2 comes out, but the truth is that most people wont. And for a mapping community, thats outragous that people wouldn't take advantage of the new abilities HL2 mapping will offer. I think that we should make a poll for everyone who has been posting here. I myself say HL2 is the way to go
I dont see missaligned textures :/ - This is just some input, normally if your making a mod and are recruiting people you need to have a good name, you my friend dont (no offense)
Well you do not need to release it. Because of the size of this mod I do not think it will even be completed by the time half life 2 comes out.
OK thx for that, now I have one more question about file linking, to make a file dl link, should i just make it goto www.dhost.info/davideo59/hltextpak1.zip
(I uploaded it already) or do I have to do something else?
(I uploaded it already) or do I have to do something else?
Well I dont know why they didnt make it, but I guess u kinda lucked out cause I finally have made a website and just have to figure out how to put a download link that makes some1 download it - possibly u could help out there?
