sometimes if you have 2 different versions of the protocol, you won't be able to start a LAN game - that happened to me with my WinXP laptop and Win98.
But a quick switch to IPX & NetBios solved that :

Maybe its just a CHMOD error?
I have no idea.. why.

PMs = YES!!!
Images = Also yes, but auto-sized ones and or auto-thumbnailing ones that don't mess up the forum... its very cody.. but hey.
And a threat of death, decapitation and banning for posting crap like guys streching their arse 15cm wide, and people getting shot in the head and leaving a mess...

What's wrong with DirectX?

You should report that btw doodle.
Its used for problem maps, they download your map, fix it up a bit, and upload an attachment.
It would be stupid to be uploading a map, and check an option that stops you uploading it...

Oh, and mop's link actually reads:
"If you click here, you will get a comprehencive guide on all forum functions"
It says all that in just 4 letters

Gah! No crates 
if you must, then include a storage type area...
More complexity!
Cramp up those corridors, Some tiny red lights; floorlights & stuff
(easy to say: yes, hard to do: yes, but that's mapping i guess)

Or he has an electricity bill that resembles world bank repayments of some 3-rd world country.

wally? Um.. No You don't { defines Textures with the "Blue" mask.
Make the last entry in the pal. Pure Blue, in your brush based entity, make sure the Render mode is Solid, and Render FX is 255
For models, you need the new and updated Game DLL (Steamy hl) that suppourts masking in model testures.
So, Hl v1.1.1.0 Will Not allow you to have masked textures in models.
That's it.
for Sprites, The Blue, should actually be Black - since in sprites, Black is invisible, and how dark a colour is determines how transparent it is.
That's Additive sprites btw,
A good sprite proggy will let you make a different kind of sprite, one with a pink/purple background - that's for using sprites where there is black.
Have a look throught the pack, and find agrunt.spr (or something similar)
That's got the different type of sprityness there.
Oh, wait, you didn't ask about models, oh well... too late, its staying in there

A game engine does not make a great map, a mapper makes a great map.
Remember that.

G_kid got there before me in reply to that: You sir, need a math book down your throat.
in reply to that: You sir, need a math book down your throat.Because it isTo elaborate:
Err.. Any math proof that ends with "Neo" "the one" came from some "Matrix" fanboy.
In math, The Matrix is simply a table of figures (essentially) - pretty boring really, but since most people don't know what a Matrix is, they assume its something really smart and complicated, and elevate its status to something "scientifically mystical"
Lets face it, Scientific terms nowadays are "in" since a lot of people don?t understand them, and they often have a good sound to them.
This is just the product of human inquisitiveness and the desire not to know all the facts, to leave room for imagination.
If everyone knew exactly what a matrix was, then i doubt the filmmakers would have called it that.
I mean, who would get exited about a movie called "The Trigonometry"
Nobody (apart from someone who has no idea what trigonometry is)
We know enough about trigonometry to dismiss any potential mystique value the term has. Hence, making it instantly boring.

Hmm...
Did you make sure to set up your IP correctly (does the LAN itself work?)
Try using NetBios & IPX protocol instead

Looking Good 
Only i suggest adding more randomness to the theme - its missing something. But i'm not sure what :
Maybe it needs to be a little more crapmed and packed with "equipment"

The Beta ZHLT are buggy at best, from my experience.
Once i got my whole map awash with reddish tint - looks nasty
Beware of Betas, but rejoice with new features!

Download a steamy mod and look at its content and how its structured - might give a few ideas.

TWHLmix was great for its potential - all that lacked was a brutal mangling of existing work - which would have gone against the concept.
I think there should be a new TWHLmix (another one for HL1) with stricter control over quality and content.

Great fun map!
Little more combat would have been nice, but the props are great - especially the lab part

Please use a proper aiming device in place of a fuckstick - it will work better, trust me.
But the similarities are too many... :

Its all well and good, but how does that help you become a better mapper ?
