in In-game map editor Post #310641
so is it necessary with an in-game editor?
Yeah no, not really, but it would be amazingly helpful to have a working light preview, or to be able to pose lights in real-time would be insanely helpful.

Until then, we can always cordon compile for a quick vrad preview i guess.

that looks great!

I'm not a painter, but there are some techniques you can use to make the shield look more used/realistic by distressing it a little bit.

one way i know is to paint areas of metalic silver/gold/platinum(or the entire shield)as a base. After the base dries rub vaseline kinda splotchy like over top, and then paint your primary colors over it.

THEN, when you rub off the vaseline, you'll should have irregular areas of the metallic colors showing through, as though the shield is a bit worn or taken some damage.

NOTE
I would test this on an unrelated piece of wood experiment a little before messing up your pretty shield ;)

Also, take a grinder/sander/whatev to "rough up" or bevel the outer edges of the shield(and/or the interior ones as you like), to again make it less two-dimensional looking.

Anyhoo though, it looks really good as it is, and these are just some ideas to tweak it if you have the time and desire. Again, great work! =)

in Source Limits Post #310590
Source can take quite a lot of bullshit, and your editor will lag to oblivion before you reach the hard limits probably(at least that's how it is on my rig). I keep adding to the map until hammer starts to lag, and then think about moving to the next bsp.

Of course, you can always keep adding to the map until you hit hard limits, ala:

Scotch
A delicious alcoholic beverage, and is best served with a cube or two of ice in a rocks glass, or neat, depending on your mood. Mixes well with coffee, oddly enough, and will undoubtedly put hair on your chest.

Scotch is also a member for TWHL, who is routinely mistaken as a clone of another scotsman on the site. A water pokeman, he is helpful, generally passive and nice, but now and again prone to small fits of seriousness, and a clear hatred of Sarah Connor's son.. =)

I fucking love libraries. One word: quiet. It's the only place i can study and actually concentrate. In uni i did all my homework in the main library, and since it was very big and i went to a party school, naturally it was always empty, and i could explore a new sector of the building each time =)

Yeah, not at all worth it, but damn i will say the players in Boot Camp mode are generally pretty horrible because they are mostly first-timers, which can be a little annoying convincing them it's important to gather money, among other things.. =)

I think i'm going to buy tickets for the entire second tour, and then just play those over and over in Mann Up mode, without ever actually completing the tour(in this way, you can replay them over and over without consuming an additional ticket?)

I must say i'm having fun exploring all the weapon upgrades with the various classes, the Righteous Bison is my fave weapon so far, it's so much fun =)

What do you-all think of Man vs. Machine?

i bought tickets for each of the missions for my first tour, under the impression that subsequent tours of those same missions would be free, but NOPE, you have to buy the tickets all-over again :|

I can't lie, i feel this is pretty gay. I could care less about the items, but i want to complete the tours, and afaik you can't even complete tours in Boot Camp, right?

I love the game, but there is no way in this earth i'm going to pay for each additional tour, no-fucking-way, no, nope ='(
