thats not what he wanted. He has a brushwork question.

killer, act like your an archetect and make every last detail. That is what seperates the good looking maps from the normal maps, detail. Brushwork is something that is self-learned, not taught. Its what makes a mapper unique, so try to do it yourself. If it does not come out right the first time, try try again til you get it. You can't really just ask for help with brushes, unless you are haveing trouble using the VM tool, which in that case it would be right to ask.

Everyone has their own mapping style, and soon you will aquire yours. Then you can worry about the details.

I actually forget where it was in the bible, but Satan is mentioned as a fallen angel. I just remember a sermon my pastur game us where he mentioned that Satan was a fallen angel. He was an angel, but he did not find favor in God's plans. He, along with his followers (Other fallen angels) enjoy evil, pain, and suffering.

In Revelations, it is said that there will be a holy war between Satan (Evil) and Micheal (Good) where Satan will be hit with a mighty blow and be thrown down to earth. There he will influence followers by means of his giant beasts (I think they're called Magog and... something else)...

well, its a long story. If you are interested, read Revelations, the last book of the Holy Bible.

Anon,

Seeing that the only thing you have mentioned that I actually completed were the painting, I will scan a few and put them on a website by tonight. Although on the website they will not look as good as in real life, I will still do it to amuse you.

blank paintings
Well, I'll upload a picture of a few of them if you want, although I like them very much and wouldn't want them stolen. I would just show you a few of my earlier works. BTW, I have sold a few. My first sold was for $150 at an auction.
novels written in invisible ink
I haven't gotten any published yet, or tried. I'm still writing. Around 70 pages through on my favorite one, Gyfan. If I get this one published, I will shurly anounce it, giving away my real identity (Like anyone cares ;) )
your half-life swinging climbable ropes
I'm working on this one, but if I finnaly figure it out to perfection, I will post it. So far I have it so when the rope swings, you have to climb across with it, which is an undesired effect.

BTW, Sorry for going off topic, but I really do not appriciate someone insulting me professionally.

666 is a number found in Revelation, the last book of the modern Bible. It is the supposed sign of Satan, the most powerful and first of the fallen angels.

You would need to change the model of the buy in CS to the scientist, which is very possible, seeing that they did it in Italy. This will not work in HL though, although there is a way you can mimick it.

Make it so that when the scientists is in a certain point, it triggers whatever you want to happen, like a sound or a door opening. Scientists will follow you if you press e by them.

Also, you can have it so that when they die, a black screen pops up and says that you lost.

If you have questions about how to do this specifically, just ask.

You would probably use this in a rotating door, or other of those types of entites. Its a useful tool to know in mapping.

I appriciate that tutorial very much, but there is one thing that I do not agree with:
You used the gladiator scene as an example for what you cannot do.  It is very possible, if you are talented at working with the HL engine.  There are ways of working around the engine, like the end scene in HL were there are millions of grunts.  I cheated once and shot them all down with the blue swirly thing, they really died.  Of course with the time you have to stay in that scene, I could only do one line of them.
The thing is, the engine may have limitations, but they can be worked around.  It is a computer program.
Think of "The Matrix", a movie.  They could bend the rules while they were inside the matrix.  While you map, think of that, and try to bend the rules.  It is possible, but takes exteme mapping skills that I myself don't even have much of.  I've been trying to make a swinging rope like in the hit origional game Donkey Kong Country for some time now, and am making some progress finally, but now with HL2 coming out, all these things will be easy (Supposedly).
a Hammer is a tool. Use it right, and you can build a house.

in Why does everyone hate Halo2??? Post #73475
I just meant that their religion kind of related to Christianity, not that it was, lol. I sometimes have trouble getting across my point in words, sorry. I just wanted to point out that the covenant's mission was similar to that of Chiristians during the crusades. I speak metaforically some times. Bugies does use words like covenant to relate to Christianity, since that is where the word came from.

How did you know that backround info? I just read what was in the instruction manuel and I did not remeber that being there. Is there like a place you can read it on a Bungie website, cause its an interesting story, although I remember nothing about a place called Reach.

Master Cheif previously did what, cause I remember nothing about anything of his past, cept that hes like a cyborg super human thingy.

in Why does everyone hate Halo2??? Post #73460
There is a great storyline to Halo also if you pay attention...

The backround information is that there is a holy war throughout the galaxies. After the humans discovered space travel, they met a most curious bunch of life forms that called themselves the covenent. The covenent is a group of alien races that have banned together to form a large religious society. They have read their Bibles, and are pretty much Christians, hence the name covenent, meaning a great promise with God. They believe that humans are demons, devils of the land, and believe it is their mission to destroy them all in the name of God.

That takes us to the story presented in the game. You are Master Cheif, a soldier who was wounded in battle and transformed into a kind of superhuman. You fight for the humans and are their secret weapon against the covenent forces that strive to find earth, the home of humans. When you ship, the Pillar of Autum, is attacked by covenant forces when your team is researching the giant ring structure found in the galaxy (Halo), you are forced to crash land on the giant object, there starting the story that leads into great plot twist, and introducing new characters.

Halo 2 is about the Covenant finnaly finding Earth. Thats all I know about it now, since all I saw was the trailor in the movie theature.

I know this because I bothered to read the instruction manuel that came with Halo, lol.
