is there a problem with that particular map? maybs try another one?
Try to ALWAYS keep your head on a swivel. if the attacker get the jump on you, you won't get a chance to pull your side arm. =(
A friend of a friend of mine got jumped from behind. they bashed his head in so bad, he now is saddled with permanent brain damage and physical disabilites from the attack, for life. I don't really know him but i've seen him a couple times. he is really fucked up. =(
if you're carring i'd also recommend a small hammerless 38 or sum such for a backup(usually an ankle holster) Once you wear them for a while you don't even notice.

Those shots are superb 0rth0doX! i love the tweaks/improvements you made to the train prefab! =)
I can try compiling it and also take a look to see if you left anything obvious out for optimization. Another possible option is to cut up this beast into more than one map.
If not, you may be looking at moderate to severe refiting of the map to get it to work, like raising texture scales and redoing some textures completely, simplifying brushwork, removing/combining models and other visible entites, etc.
Question: if you do a fast VIS compile with no rad, can you play the BSP?

I agree with crollo about the trigger dicipline and proper training. I would TOTALLY recommend a formal training course for concealed carry and self-defense.
That said, i agree with the main message of video: I will not be a victim to robbery, or god forbid a violent crime.
Again, i would still recommend buddying up with people in a carpool or whatever, and obviously try to avoid problem areas, and especially problem areas at night and the small hours..

I know this is not the right way to think about things, but i would never just hand over my shit to somebody, i don't care what they have. I think i might go chimpanzee on their ass, like as a reflex action not even thinking about it. (this would be especially true if i had gone without a cigarette for a few hours) 
ESPECIALLY my laptop. The only way anybody's getting that is to pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

don't let's start a big debate about gun control PLEASE. People are VERY divided on this issue and nooone ever gives any ground either way, so DONT WASTE YOUR TIME.
zeeba: that is really scarrry. your student government should start a campaign to make the campus and parking lots safe for the students. It's simply unacceptable that that they are not protecting you with the proper police/security presence and getting away with it apparently. =|
If you can, try to buddy up and/or carpool with someone at night, so you aren't alone.

wow those are really impressive atom! (a couple of those i haven't seen)
gian20: good luck on your rocketry! feel free to post your wip and we can halp you hammer out any details i'm sure!
here are a couple map vault entries i found quickly, which may or may not be useful to you:

that is really neat archie.
Ha that's pretty neat Atom, long as the conversion process isn't too difficult; i might totally use that for goldsource mapping. =)
edit: isnt that prop thing Dragos mentioned kinda like propper? it pretty much makes the object a func_illusionary with collision model for bullet decals and stuff:
edit: isnt that prop thing Dragos mentioned kinda like propper? it pretty much makes the object a func_illusionary with collision model for bullet decals and stuff:
These parts also have zhlt_noclip 1 parameter so they are non-solid, like func_illusionaries, but they do block bullets and leave marks on them exactly the same as being solid.?
i will look at it, but be advised i'm sure there are LOADS of working examples for source elevators out there if you need to save some time.
I hate trains in general and avoid them whenever i can, but i'll see if i can find anything.

Dimbark, do you mean like this:

It's actually a very simple(yet very elegant) solution to the problem of lighting complex stuff without visual errors in goldsource. I can see using dragos's method to relieve headaches on many things for GoldSrc mappers.
Your stair idea sounds very intriguing as well! Would love to look at an example map of that as well! =)

The lighting is done already on the texture.I would have NEVER guessed that's how you got it so smooth-looking and nicely seamless!1 (even without the sex texturing, that brushwork is also 1st-class work)
Never seen anything like it, VERY nice sir! =)

Daub: ya i'm not sure if this was from one of my archives or what. I feel like a bit tarded cuz i found it uploaded--by me--like 5 seconds after making the thread.
Finally played it and it's a fine example of your early work! This reminds me how i wish you mapped more! (was really anticipating your rooms: half-life entry from the pretty WIP screens)

Anybody have this! i see it in top maps all the time but link is down, and Daub says he doesn't think he has it anymore! =(
EDIT:
I found it and apparently, i have it uploaded already!

oh nice! do you still null the "pyramid" parts or do they have the scrolling texture as well? I feel this would be a neat example map. =)
Striker: It hated you fsr, but now it doesn't. =)
Maddy: particularly nice if you can update from your android or whatev smartphone, i get a msg from gmail for every response, and i can answer/ignore or unsubscribe once i get the answer i need from the thread. I find it EXTREMELY useful when i'm away from my laptop for long periods of time.

couldn't you just leave it all 1-unit thick and null the unused faces? I too am having trouble visualizing this, and feel like i'm trying to over-complicate the idea?
Excellent stuff TJB and archie!
Archie: can you write a quick tutorial on smooth mountain and road displacements? (i'm assuming the roads are also displacements?)

Why do people keep on making the same weapon models?Because guns are fun to model! I've modeled the m4 at least 7 different times myself.

i use it for Interlopers, mapcore, youtube and some others already, and it seems to work fine. STILL, i can't believe i NEVER notices topic alerts before!
I will admit though for REALLY active threads, like "those simple questions" at 'lopers, i turn off subscribe, cuz my phone buzzes every 5 minutes with a new update.

Not really sure what i'm looking at but i'm sure it's awesome (i subscribed ;)). Is this like scrolling textures used for rain or fog?

you try running hammer portable from a thumb drive?
I mean, every other web forum i've ever seen simply has a "subscribe" or "watch" button on the bottom of the page.. =/
Wish i knew about this sooner! is there a way to make it email you upon new posts?

holy crap no wai i didn't know that!! TY =)
i REALLY like this idea.
I would also like to see some kind of "subscribe" button for threads and journals and maps.

From my personal error guide:
--"AllocBlock:full" ERROR:
Cause: Your map is hugely too big, too complex, and/or your texture scales are scaled down too low. related to "MaxLeafFaces" error.
Fix: Up texture scales, make complex objects func_walls/func_illusionary, or cover said complex objects up with clipbrushes.
EDIT: The biggest culprit i've found to cause this is having a map with intensely-complex geometry coupled with too-low texture scales. Sometimes, simply raising the texture scales up a bit fixes this error.

i'm blaming that triple post on android, since that's where i posted from.
Oh archie btw what preceded the cars and various debris raining down from the cebtee if the map? Twas that a nuke? Very neat whatever it was =)
Also kike the name I see what u did there. @;)

oh btw i agree with rim to use a model for the garage door, but i know how fun it is trying to get things like that to work in hammer. =)
If you make an example/problem map of it, i can play with and making it work in both directions if you like.

Jeez Zeeba, your hammer shots are always so pretty i want to frame them. =)
your mom failed =/
Ja ja super-neat idea btw, ala pirates of the caribbean? Can't wait to see screens! =)
Here are some other pirate ships you might check out for kicks/inspiration. I know Tetsu0 was pretty close to finishing his but i don't know if he uploaded it.

Soup you should totally make an example/tutorial for this. I remember seeing how you've blended water with sky in the past and it was perfect..
Dr. Seuss smoked LOTS and LOTS of weed
yoohoo those are some great songs! =)

Understandable! =)
I don't really try to think of them as competitions, but more as creative exercises. Making them competitions just adds to the enthusiasm and how hard you will push to get the most out of it.
Even though there were not many entries for the pool compo, look at that amazing entry you made! Well worth it regardless of prizes or bragging rights, you creating a unique, superb map. =)
As for organization, Absolutely:
[green]MiniChallenge: Map Musica[/green]
Map to a piece of music of your choice and see what it inspires you to create!
If you are in, Declare the song you will be mapping to in the thread and start mapping! Include the music in your compiled, playable map.
Rule/Guidelines:
-Goldsource or Source Engine maps are fair game.
-Displacement Generators ok to use
-compo is over when we stop getting entries or by general consensus
-voting is by community voting in the thread, or we can assign judges
-use whatever music you like

I love the idea, but finding a tune that everybody can bare on loop might take forever.
we aren't going to decide on one piece of music for everyone to use , why don't we choose our own for our map?Agreed and agreed. Though i would LOVE to all do the same song, i can understand that one tune that may be very inspiring to one person, will be totally useless to someone else.
SO, Let's just all pick our own song then? Shall we put any other restrictions on the map or shall we start when ready? Goldsource or source is fine and displacement generators like twister are also completely fine to use imo.
Muzz: aw, why don't you do a song by that female artist you use to use in your profile pic all the time? =)
Striker: WIN that song is pwn. I've mapped to that track from inception and and worldbuilder MANY times. It's all about choosing a song that inspires you. =)
I have 4-5 tracks i'm try to choose from right now but i'm leaning toward this.
