The Columbine students were bullied and deeply mentally disturbed, you can't say their playing Doom led them to kill the students. You try spending 4 years having every part of your life criticized and shit on for 7 hours a day 5 days week. Calling them morons is unnecessary, thats like calling a depressed person weak, while their decisions/actions were poor its not entirely their fault.

.blobbed your mom!

Good thing you got it working satchmo.

Yoda I have a spare beta key if you want it. I'm not sure if its tied to my account or not but I can still give it to you to try.

Well first, my avatar is the ownage Luke lol. But yea X-Men Origins was the best leak I have ever seen, not only was it nearly finished but you got to see some of the scenes before CGI so it was very interesting. I will still be buying TS3 when it comes out, but an early chance to play it won't be bad :).

Various sites are reporting that The Sims 3 has been leaked. It was set to realease on June 2nd.

Discuss.

If its like a PSP but better i'd buy it.

Someone on here should make a nav tutorial, its giving me problems, mainly having the mobs come from multiple directions and the special infected not failing.

Console command Director_report

It will give you an overlay and list it in the console.

I know I looked at that, sighed, cried a bit and closed it. I don't understand how they did that. Hell, even the standards map overwhelms me.

Ok, how would I make a light go dark, like via what input?

Ello, i'm having trouble capturing the atmosphere needed in a left 4 dead map. Obviously I want it to be kind of dark and scary and such but it still seems to bright, no matter how low I set my lights. Does anyone have any tips regarding creating atmosphere or lighting, or props related to lighting.

Gamestop still sells used, Wal-Mart won't be able to sucessfully buy and sell used games like gamestop does.

I could leave it on all the time, and the FTP running, but would that allow me to put an HTML document on it, and then go to the URL of the file, and view it in an internet browser?

So you couldn't run it off of your own pc via an ftp?

Hi, I'm attempting to create a website, I've made a few HTML documents, but how do you host them so you can view them via a URL?

His eyes look too...I don't know, he looks like he's hungover or a pothead, but overall I think it looks good.

Random guess, Metal Gear Solid 3 with an accent, I really have no clue

/me has something messed up in his head. (lol jk)
No, on a more serious note those are some awesome puppies.

As long as you aren't playing it at the same time it's fine. I have my steam on my pc, my brothers pc, and my dad's pc, depending on which isn't being used when I want to play.

Rimrook, what program do you model with? 3dmax or XSI? Or another?

I could go for a tutorial on basic source entities and usages. Or any other basic soruce tutorials. I'm starting to learn source.

we should have a newbies only compo sometime
just a suggestion

How do you get the models to show up in hammer 3.5? I had it working once but now I can't get it to? Does it matter if I use the hl fdg or the spirit fdg?

Nevermind i got it, now i cant use spirit but at least i can see what way the models are pointing and how they will work

Halfife Genius you really need to chill out, your always going psycho on the forums. Just take a chill pill. As for the grunts, I would just go with SOHL like aaron_da_killa said.

Rape Me - Nirvana
Up Next: Heart Shaped Box - Nirvana

Thanks for the tip

My awesome new Nirvana desktop. Dave looks a little weird in the pic though.

My Desktop is the win!

HL genius, you could make a map that has nothing to do with source or gldsource, I was gonna make Postal 2 until I dropped out.

Does the map have to be playable, for instance can I use C:SS without having it be an actual fighting map, as in no buy zones, cause C:SS has good textures for what I am remaking.

Fearian, wonderful idea, i think i have an onion laying around, i'll email it to you, and i think that we can throw sharkie in there to be the tinned tomatoes

But on a more serious note, stop spamming random ideas, think for a while, do some basic layout work, I use paint for top down map layout, and i just do basic archetecture first, then advanced things, so think a bit, keep your hands away from your enter button, stop posting threads about mod ideas that will never happen.

Foo Fighters - Let It Die

mine crashes when i start a new game

He could just play sven coop

whoops sorry for bump, didn't notice the date

use the vertex tool to make them all meet together on every side so there are no gaps

I know it adds lag but I can't find the leak, the point file doesn't even head toward an actual leak.

And I tried that, the 32bit download link is broken.

zomg, thats it

Thanks for helping me make this work

My pointfile shows all sorts of lines which run right into brushes, you can not see the void along the lines it shows

EDIt: just created a giant box around the map so even if there was a leak it wouldn't reach the void, and still fullbright

I deleted barney and it's still fullbright!

Error:
A LEAK is a hole in the map, where the inside of it is exposed to the
(unwanted) outside region. The entity listed in the error is just a helpful
indication of where the beginning of the leak pointfile starts, so the
beginning of the line can be quickly found and traced to until reaching the
outside. Unless this entity is accidentally on the outside of the map, it
probably should not be deleted. Some complex rotating objects entities need
their origins outside the map. To deal with these, just enclose the origin
brush with a solid world brush

Hi, when I compile my map using ZHLT Compile GUI X? everything goes fine. Then when I start my map in half life it is fullbright. I tried turning lighting brightness down, didn't work. So then I removed all lights. Didn't work. Any ideas?
