....And stop spamming the thread. Thankyou.

I'd say there is still at least another copule of months work to be done.

It would go much faster, however if people like coldfeet and unbreakable updated more often... or at all..

w00t!

Muzz has once again added a great contribution to the mod which will reduce filesizes considerably.

We can now use MP3s as well as .wavs!

The only problem (if you can even call it a problem) is that it will only work with Steam HL. But that's fine.

For details on how to add MP3s to your map, visit the feature list on the HL:HS forums

I must say that multiplayer maps are INCREDIBLY good fun to map.. You can just map whatever ideas pop into your head... They dont neccisarily have to have reason...

But then, you're so resricted with filesizes and custom content with multiplayer...

I love making custom textures, re-skinning models and including them in minimods. Its great. You can totally satisfy your creative mind..

I dunno...

Unbreakable, i was gonna put you in for respect or best mapper, but you deleted all your maps, and i thought you had left...
The Noobie To Goodie Award for learning

First of, how can I be nominated?
A. Everyone named there (besides elon yariv ) isn't a 'noob'.
B. I don't learn, I know.
That award was meant for the person who had learned about mapping quickly and effectively... Not necisarily meaning they are or were ever 'noobs'
Dark Kilauea wonders why he wasn't even mentioned, am I that invisable?
.... Do you serve cold drinks... or?
No offence but how in the hell can you nominate kasperg and rabidmonkey while rimrook wins.. Rabidmonkey wins foo'.
Perhaps, but I don't hide the fact that i am a greater fan of HL1 than HL2...
dammit, if only you made 'most attractive person on TWHL' i would get that for sure
Definately, but i didn't think it was fair to do that award as you are so much better than anybody else i could nominate :badass: :nuts:
i'm happy.
and when i'm happy, people live.

Lets see who is in the line-up for the 2005 Hunter Award!
Its not an official award, nor will you gain anything by winning one, but i would simply like to express my views about other members, and this feels like the best way.
(Also, if you are a winner, feel free to brag about being a 'Huntee' winner in your journal or Bio)

And now, the 2005 ceremony
The Noobie To Goodie Award for learning
This award is given to the person who i beleive has made most progress over the year

And the nominees are:

Elon Yariv - Joined: 1st March 2005 (360 days ago)
alexb911 - Joined: 2nd June 2005 (267 days ago)
FresheD - Joined: 23rd March 2005 (338 days ago)
Ansith - Joined: 9th September 2005 (168 days ago)

And the winner is........drumroll
ALEXB911 going from "Torture That Alien" - a badly textured but fun map, All the way to "The Arena - room 1" - a map which is both exceedingly fun and well mapped.

The Friendly Award for kindness
This award is given to the person who i beleive has been the nicest and friendliest in giving helpful advice to those who need it in the forums

And the nominees are:

Captain P - Joined: 8th September 2003 (900 days ago)
Elon Yariv - Joined: 1st March 2005 (360 days ago)
Rowleybob - Joined: 20th August 2004 (553 days ago)
Freshed - Joined: 23rd March 2005 (338 days ago)

And the winner is........drumroll
CAPTAIN P who is always looking out for threads in which he can help, both in the HL forums, and the Source ones.

The Humour Award for funnyism (its a word ^_^)
This award is given to the person who i beleive has had the best comical input to TWHL

Madcow - Joined: 23rd August 2004 (550 days ago)
ZombieLoffe - Joined: 24th October 2003 (853 days ago)

And the winner is........drumroll

JIMMI, simply because he was the only one to get banned. Elon has got much much better. But people like Coffee and Bobthereaper really depress me...
They've been at TWHL for such a short period of time, yet they have already established themselves as forum spammers.

Muzz has been the most helpful and nice person i have met on TWHL

This award is given to the person who I believe has created the best map

And the nominees are:

Rimrook - For Sancefar
RabidMonkey - For De_Raincheck

Please, nobody take offense from this

in Custom water textures Post #164686
hmmmmmm... hmmmmm..

Well, i exported one of the halflife.wad's water textures and modified it to suit my needs, i then added it to my current project's wad and added a func_water brush to my map, covered in that texture.

However, upon playing the map, i find that the water texture is completely still.. No waves, no movement.. nothing.. I can stand in it, swim in it and drown in it, but its totally un-animated.

Help?
