Jeez, feeling a little negative emotion there. Not all cats are like that. I'd even say that's the minority.
I'm in Kingaroy, and away from my computer. Hence, no desktops I can show.

Somewhat relevant. Good ol' Brooker.

Is there anything to suggest the rules and boundaries we've established here in our universe are the same outside of it?
I've been playing THE SHIT out of Don't Starve.
It's like Diablo 2 mixed into Minecraft, all with its own unique style.
Greater than the sum of its parts is easily arguable one way or the other, but it's damn good either way.

Thanks for all the replies, this'll be useful info.
The good thing about Goldwave (unless they've changed it) is that the trial is usage based, and the counter for it is stored in the registry! Change that and you've got a fresh trial again.

Hey, I was mimicking Ghost.
A computer I bought this one time and a bunch of clothes.
There, no video needed now.

No, Scotch a annoyed man.
Should I start my friend off on GoldSource before Source?
Also, is there any functional difference between the three versions of SDK on steam?

So, someday, possibly someday soon (only possibly), I would like to move on to Source mapping. Those who know me would know I've basically never touched it as of yet.
What I would like to know, is firstly, What do I need?
I'm guessing it's not like Goldsource, where the editor, fgds, compile tools, etc are scattered all over the webs, but I could be wrong.
And secondly, What do I need to know?
I've gotten a solid understanding of Goldsource over the years, but what's different?
A friend of mine who is completely new to mapping and wants to get into it will also be keeping an eye on this thread, so any advice you can give to the fresh is also appreciated.

A) You spelt it wrong.
B) It wasn't funny.
C) You revived a 2 month-dead thread to make that "joke". You'd certainly be one step closer to a temp-ban in my books.

Try listening to this for quite some time. It gets to you.

You don't know what he's got.
I don't know why he was making models on source for a goldsource project, but hey!

Frankly I don't care what get's used, I put SoHL on that original post because
(P.S. If we do go with SoHL, can someone confirm the link I put is a correct place to get it/version to get? I haven't touched it in years, so I wouldn't regocnise it by now.)
It's been SoHL since the beginning, lol.Well, page two of that first thread, anyway:
Shall we use spirit of half-life for this?
yeah...the Move With function from sohl might be helpful...
i feel like sohl would be better in general
I vote for SoHL. I'm using it with Particle Fusion anyway.
Doesn't SoHL allow 3D skyboxes? That would be cool for a skyscraper map.
i never uses SoHL so it will all be new school for me
SoHL should allow us to do most if not all entity tricks with little trouble, including the lift controls. (a nice interactive directory of each floor in the lobby might be nice too)[quote]What we've have established so far:
- Project will be GS SoHL. (maybe a source version later down the road?) [/quote]

Yeah, get a mod to change the original post if Vanilla is what you want, Tet.
I just don't see what the big fuss is about. It's exactly the same as vanilla with more useful functions for those who want it.

As general consensus would appear to show, the next TWHL Co-op mapping project will be a skyscraper, where each member creates a floor in their own theme! I'm just booting up a fresh thread here, Tetsu0 seems to have taken on the job of managing this project.
Engine: GoldSource
Game: Spirit of Half-Life (If the link isn't correct, please say so)
Cheers to Tetsu0 for the idea, and the elevator base we'll be working from!

RULES
- You cannot change the dimensions of the elevator.
- Null every exterior surface.
- You CAN include outside decorations outside of your windows. This doesn't have to make sense, it's a fun project, not a realism contest.
- Maximum (interior) vertical dimensions of 1024 units. Feel free to connect any other 'floors' within that height limit with stairs, lifts, etc.
- There are no length or width limitations, but be reasonable.
- HAVE FUN!
Now we've got a lift, I suggest we move to a new thread.
As of yet, nothing.
Oh. My bad, Suture, that one passed right over my head. I thought you'd just missed that 
I don't think I should... By the time this thing gets going, I'll be right in the middle of exam study, or exams themselves.
Unless we haven't done anything by, ooh, June 21st, I believe I should decline the position.

And obviously naoko was a female.
You are aware that Archie and Urby aren't really here anymore?
Base dimensions and prefab elevator/stairwell/skybox. That's all we need to decide/make.
Why would the number of floors be limited by the number of people? People can make as many as they want.
Btw, skyscraper was just the first suggestion. No one said we had to stick with the idea.

When you say visible entites, do you just mean things like items and monsters, or func_walls and such as well?
That might be a design choice for any one floor. Otherwise the tower might need to be linear, without the player going to whichever floors he/she wants.
I'd say to whoever is designing the lift, see if you can do a proper floor number buttons type of thing. It shouldn't be too hard, and would give each floor a definite identifier and (for all intents and purposes) fast travel.
I thought the prefab floor structure was the logical way to do things.
I think as long as the author stays within the logical barriers of the shape of the building and height of the floor, he/she (lol) should be able to habitate it with whatever he wants. Maybe a few specially made to make thetower make sense, like an entrance level (with our NEW special door formula!) and, I dunno... a carpark.
I mean, if we were making an actual, realistic tower... kinda dull.
Semi-unrelated: Can anything exist in-game if it passes the edge of Hammer's grid?

No, you can't.
Well, what restraints would we impose on the participants? I mean, being a skyscraper, each floor would logically have to be of a certain length, width and height... Unless we discard logic and head in Tardis-style, any damn size you want on the inside. Don't know if that would be any good though.
Also, any limit to entries? I mean, skyscrapers aren't small. If we only got 8-ish people entering, that's not too big. Would open up the doors for people who get several ideas.
They're the immediate issues I can think of.

A lift seems the simplest way to do level-changes. Would be an interesting entity set-up, too. Stairs could be optional; made by each person or standardly/basically/boringly next to the lift.
I've still never mapped for Source. I probably won't. gldsrc for me! If I join in. Which I might. Sentence fragments.

Just look at how it was done, and adapt it for your own needs.
Too much awesome in this thread.

A balance would be best. Contrasting light levels could do wonders.

Hey, I don't rule the Earth yet. You don't have to kowtow to me.
Yup. Luckily I likely won't be around anyone who gets into it.
I also hate actions typically referred to as "trolling" (spits). If it involves being a complete little fucking shithead to someone, it's not funny no matter who it targets, whether I care the slightest bit about them or not.
EDIT: On a semi-related note, I despise April Fool's Day too.
I frankly loathe the word "troll" used in this manner. It just glamorises-up the phrase "be an intolerable asshole".
I fell in love with Monster Hunter Tri on the Wii. I suspect I'll be ever keeping an eye on the series from now on =D
Brother has bought a 3DS with Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate.
Only downside is I'd feel bad if I played it more than he did =(
If that wasn't true I wouldn't be seen around here anymore.
