Forum posts

you spend your money on dick?

1. they do
2. read the first post
3. you're kidding, right?
4. i'm thinking of implementing a 'blog' or 'article' system, but this is a long way off. i've still got wiki, reviews, and projects (as well as smaller things like admin panels and more vault screenshots)

I formatted not too long ago. Other than that, I don't change my wallpaper very much.

stolen prize idea. hello law suit!

you can't. it's completely impossible.
because the op4 source code is not public like the HL source code. the recoil is in the code, and you can't change the code. so you can't change the recoil.

i'm not coding a specific case of location for every single user. in the time you've taken to complain, you could have changed it already.

just to clear up an error: the very best solar panel is only 20% efficient, not 40%. Most are around 15%.

IE6. Upgrade to IE7 or deal with it. Ant can't do any stylesheets at the moment.

i'll need a screenshot.

where aren't they links?

The competition has been extended by two weeks.

don't forget that you need to provide screenshots of the original map with your entry.

you can release it online, but then people will know what you entered ;o

uhh...yeah. we tried to play this, but all the players were invisible.

ok file upload works, and you have confirmation when you submit. your entry went through fine though, so you don't need to resubmit.

and you think that's normal? put it in the bug thread next time! (fixing it now)

edit: try again

looks like you have two lights.rad files. delete one.

heh, a shortcut to TWHL.

it's an optional software iirc. he probably can't remove it because it's not his computer and whoever owns it wants it on.

I use AVG.

well you should search it, but probably on a site that isn't google if you get what i mean.

system restore takes up unnecessary hard drive space and cpu cycles. it never fixes anything, and slows down installations that attempt to create restore points. one of the first things i do on a new install is disable it through start -> run -> services.msc, along with the error reporting service and windows messenger. besides your anti-spyware programs, the only other one you should have is tuneup utilities, which has a bunch of great applications for cleaning out the useless stuff on your computer and registry.

the knife in my right knee sends a sharp stabbing pain into my right knee

the word 'library' sends a sharp stabbing pain into the back of my left knee

can we play multiplayer now? ;o

First, get Process Explorer. It's better.

Second, don't worry about the number of svchosts running, I have 5 running right now, and it's normal.

As for ep2, try increasing your paged pool memory. You can google it or there is a tool to do it for you here (I haven't tried it). Increase it to the highest (384mb) and reboot.

there might be an extension, because i haven't coded the tools to judge the compo yet XD

just use muzz's compilator. from what i hear it's alot easier to use.

......wow.

first of all, jump on IRC if you ever need advice with spyware again, you don't need to pay anything for a good spyware removal tool. (for future reference: ad-aware and spybot, both free.)

second, cancel that credit card! i'm sure you already have.

third, your laptop can't be "dead" (not from a virus, anyway). the worst that software viruses can do is corrupt your windows installation. if the data isn't important on the laptop, throw in a windows installation disk and use the serial that should be on the bottom of the laptop. when given the option, do a full format.

fourth, the best software is often free. for security:
zonealarm: firewall
AVG free: anitvirus
Spybot search & destroy: spyware
ad-aware: spyware

mm. i'll add it. i missed several stat things so if you notice any more, make sure to tell me.

eh, what?

it has to be in a different engine, meaning that you can make hl2 in gldsrc, and HL in source. you can't make HL1 in goldsrc.

learn to read

too much effort for a shitty game

if people actually read what i say, you'll see that i said you can use as much custom content as you want.

30 minutes isn't "extremely long". some maps have been known to take over 12 hours to compile.

-make your own textures
-powers of 2 (2,4,8,16,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096)
-yes

oh, i thought that they were once only. i don't think you can do it without coding.

well there should only be 4 cases of values (0,100,200,300) so using game_texts manually shouldn't be hard. but counters are more used for logic than actual user interaction.

don't triple post. click the edit button next to your name if you're the last poster in the thread. editing a post bumps the thread as well.

eh, i can give you moderator back, but ant requested for some strange reason not to give anyone any privileges yet :/

thats what i mean. i'd only use 'limey' to describe a british person.

limey? what? Isn't that a British term? I'm from Australia

haha sorry, fixed now

the answer is no, so shutup and stop clogging the thread with non-functional related stuff.
