That speed they have is not for them, its for the network, and yes, you WILL always use the maximum speed because your RAM memory operates at much bigger speeds than your HDD. It all happens in your RAM not your HDD.

It first happens in the ram than goes to the HDD. Plus you have SCSI and SAS drives that go well over 1Gb/s write speed.
Think about it, how the hell does the sever supply you with 1Gb/s if there is NO hard drive that can handle it?

The L1 cache was an example of a memory chip invented a long time ago that operates at insane speeds. SSDs are the new and cheap fast storage standard today. Check out prices for quality SAS hardware.

And there are also chips designed for the military that have huge write speeds, over 50Gb/s.

L1 cache is a memory chip just like an SSD.
And you store DATA in memory in BINARY code not "files" lol.

[Edit]
All caps is just to bring your attention to it not yelling (me no angy).

Your L1 CPU cache runs at 200Gb/s

A block administrator controls the internet transfer and network of a certain city block.
And his hard drive has nothing to do with that.

And there are devices with much bigger storage speeds than SSD standard invented 10 years ago.

Way bigger speed exist. But not opened to wide public of course.

Russia Convex block Amdins -> 1Gb/s

Grenades? Nah, BFG9000's!

@ Archie
Engineer sure seems to think that way

Guns are something to only be used in defense. And even then I'm against lethal weapons.

I used to have 1.5Mb/s internet for years, until a few months ago i switched to 35Mb/s :>

10% of the population are psychotic maniacs.

This sort of thing can happen anywhere at any time. People are clearly not educated enough.

And these so called students, a good percent of them are useless morons that do not know what do they want with their life. But not all are psychotic like little Jamie here who probably ended up in some sect.

I would judge him life time in prison for being too fucking defected in the head.

I just got up when i wrote this, but the majority of this text still stands.

Also as for the limit, keep it below 8. (useful when using default wads to reduce online transfer size).

Captain Terrors pipe thing is awesome!

I think the blade design is pulling people away from it. But it has way more quality than zero's thing.

Voting for CT.

Damn she is good. Plus i prefer lamb

Jam project TIEM! YEAH

Hmm, the way i imagined it is quite complicating... Isnt there a way to set a door to a master or something that when changed to 1 sets the doors to close?

I am making a deathrun map and i don't want players to rush in the third final door and skip the other two.

I need some way to set the doors to state closed after round end, the terrorist player will trigger the event. I just need to find out how to do it.

I have a plan of my own, but its kinda complex.

CS 1.6

Can any one tell me how can i reset doors to position CLOSED on each round start?

I want to have 3 doors. First door is opened by a button, second as well, and so on until all 3 are open. Now i want them to reset to CLOSED position on round start. BUT i want this to happen also if only 1 is open or 2 when the round finishes and the new one starts.

Let the guy rest, i know the feeling.

He needs to reorganize if he wants to start over again.

Yes, move all of the stuff to the root of the partition into a new folder. And keep away from spaces.

Use under lines like so: mapping_resources

Miss Lyssa has my likes.

Oh cool, ive read most of old VERC stuff.

The ones i found most interesting are using bevel with textures to get some nice effects, shadows from glass, num_edicts (All though i never confirmed this) and terrain modding.

All of those exist on Snark pit as i remember, but some images are long dead.

Even if its based on it, some realism needs to be applied, the tram could easily hit the edges or something.
When it comes to remakes, some people really do appreciate more realism added to the construction.

Thats kinda sad, the cliffs are awesome! (also the hole is too thin)

Haha, yeah, one computer only.

Don't be homo dude, its a perfect plan! Just send him this:

I'm your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Papa-paparazzi

Baby, there's no other superstar
You know that I'll be
Papa-paparazzi

Promise I'll be kind
But I won't stop
Until that boy is mine

Baby, you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa-paparazzi

50 keys plz
Papa-paparazzi

Ive got a plan! Dimbark, Gabe likes you, so don't be a Hot Dog and get us 50 keys or something! YEAH!

Hawlk smash >:O Da link MO FO

Yeah, thats the tutorial i read as well.

Making textures for source can be a pain in the ass. It is a fairly simple process:

Convert, add additional images if needed and define some shit.

A bit time taking, but worth it in the end, with all the effects and stuff.
There is a tutorial here on TWHL about it Captain T man.

I thought those were cheese wheels lol

Well this app is stupid.

I think his avatar is pretty bad ass

If he has DX7, thats probably AGP GF2. He needs a new computer, not just the GPU

You should add a platnium star, for the masterpieces that are perfect.

GF4?I feel happy i swapped my GF4 quickly when i had it for 5200. It was so weak it was not funny.

Haha, better ants than snakes i always said xD
Ants stealing your megahertz and gigabits lol

This is the first time i heard ants fooked up anything. Thats a genuine bug!

Bruce we all know you bend jet turbines with your look only, no need to brag about it

The only thing my fans kill are my fingers, got hit hard like 10 times while messing around with the shit inside.
Also lol, i find it hard to believe ants frying anything.

The internal connection lines must be damaged or short circuited. So when you press one key, the keyboard gets a different signal and assumes you pressed something else.

Get a new one dude.

@ Zeeba

Do you really wish to know?Also, cool, i know Zeeba will map something crazy xD
Thats why im trying to learn to make greater details in XSI so i can compete, even by a slight percent, with Captain Terror and others

I think 2 months should be enough to make it the way i imagined it, if not, meh, who cares, its for the fun

Yeah, me too Captain T, you were right, it is much better
Iim busting my head with XSI currently, this program is retarded... Need to get it operational...

So, on 20th 8th this compo ends, right?

Noes! thats is mine's csgo.

seriously tho i'm happy for ya(die) and i'm finally over not having a beta key, so i can wait a little while longer(WTF is my beta key i filled out 5 surveys), and squeeze in some final cs:s mapping anyhow...

Muhahaha!
Haha, thanks xD
You were right, mapping for source is hell lot more fun, especially how easy making terrain is!
Dont worry, soon the game will be out and we will be able to buy it
True evil always prevails!

2 months is pretty standard for TWHL compos, Stojke.

Roger that Mr. Archie.

If I knew this would have happened, I would have qued up for that CS:GO beta lane at least 10 times, to get 10 beta keys.

Lol, you sold one, what do you want more

Im gonna enter this compo with mah new CS GO!

( Thank you Ninja Defuse, i love you :'> )

How much time do we have for this? Mine project might take some time... Plus its my first CS S map.

Any one can be able to calculate like that, or anything else for that matter if they have a passion for it, or train from a young age.

Stuff like that isnt really that special any more.

Im coolio with this, yo.

If i had Source id still own you.

Bruce are you on your period?

Hahahahaha

I like the big ship idea.

Its an error on my side, what i meant by that is:

Even 100MHz faster than what you have is a big improvement.

--

It depends really, i can now buy 2 cards for 200e and have a better performance than my singe one i bought 2 years ago.

[Edit]
Even if it seems harsh, its to point out something, dont worry

He needs because he can always upgrade his PC with out the need of a newer MoBo. Especially when prices drop for good GPUs in the future.
The Capacitors leak when there is a power problem, not have to do anything with the BIOS nor with the CPU. But if they are old and worn out the CPU can suffer (but that doesnt happen in less than 10 years).

--

You want what proved? That higher memory speed means better performance?

--

Motherboard is the single most important part of a good quality PC.

And if he is low on founds, Velociraptor inst a bad choice, since for the price of one 64GB SSD you can get a 300GB 15kRPM Sata 3 western digital Rapotr.

But he went for an 120gb ssd in the end, so no worry.

As for AMD cards, Nvidia is Nvidia, i dont need much to prove. Its more technical than just price and performance.

SSD operate at holy shit higher speeds than a classic magnet disc HDD.

You will have faster file loading from storage into memory into cpu, and with that much faster operation of your computer.

What can you do, he is 11.

Crollo, thats like comparing a Renault to a Mercedes.
Sure, they can bot go up to 100km/h in 4 seconds, but one has much more quality and will definetly last longer, and the other doesnt.

For 300$ you can hardly buy a HiEnd GPU not alone all components.
He doesnt need an i7, but if he can aford it, why not. On the used markets, slower models are always cheaper, always has been like that, there are good cpus for little cash. You will always find that the best costs the most. Even when the difference is a mere 200MHz, the price can be 2x bigger.
You are right if you think of it that way, the performance is similar.

Chosing the right motherboard is the most important step of the process, by my point of view.
Not only does it need to have quality support for the CPU, Memory, GPU, but also it needs to be built with quality and last. Mother boards unter 150$ wil RARELY have 2x 16xPCI-E, and or other functions, such as memory speed and ammount support
As well as in other connectivity support and features.
If he is planning on buying a high end CPU, he needs a high end MoBo. The one with quality capacitors and voltage regulation, as well as support for the newest hot shit.

As i wrote up, you need many things out of a MoBo, out of which the most important is quality voltage in the system and regulation. You want it to last, not die as soon as the warrenty runs out, lol.

RAM speed is the speed at which the data is transfered into and out of it. The faster RAM is, the better the system performance. Even 100 MHz is a whole different level of performance.
I also think he should get 4GB and upgrade latter as needed. 8GB wont give him much improvement for now.

Skals, integrated GPU does not aid/improve the real thing.
Plus, its dissabled when you insert the real deal.
And also, it uses up your system ram, so you dont want it.

---

I personally would not chose an ATI, due to bad experience with it. But Nvidia is more expencive for what ATI can give you, so you will need to chose.
In my experience the best Nvidia brand is Gainward.

HDD, as striker says, but why waste 100e more on an SSD when you can get a VelociRaptor from WD which has similar transfer speed and more space than an SSD for that price.
As for other parts, Blue is good. As he said, green is too slow.

As for CPU, id personally go for a non GPU one, socket 2011 is the one with out.
Its pure Intel power.
