I want to make one final point before letting this one to rest. You people keeping saying that there are concrete patterns that the universe follows, and you keep using that as a basis to prove my arguement wrong. I've got an analogy that explains these patterns perfectly.
Flip a coin, there's a 50-50 chance that it lands on heads or tail(and there's a miniscule chance that it will land on the side, but that doesn't matter here). If you flip that coin 500 times, there is a possibility, though extremely slim, that the coin will land on heads every single time. If that happens, it might seem like a pattern of landing on heads, but you know that it isn't a pattern because you know that flipping a coin cannot have a pattern, you know that flipping a coin will always have a random outcome. Think of that coin as the universe. Every flip is another event. Now if you flip 5,000,000,000,000,000 coins 500 times(or create that many universes with 500 events in each), your chances of at least one of those coins landing one heads every time is drastically increased. If you have an infinite amount of coins, the chance of at least one coin landing on heads every time is 100%. Our percreption of what is a pattern and what is just a random coincidence could just be determined by another flip of the coin like everything else, that's what I've been trying to tell you. See the correlation here?

I can guarantee you that your problem is because you accidentally entered "hud_saytext" in your console, a command that toggles the visibility of ingame text. Put it in the console again to bring the text back.

What the fuck is your problem you peice of bat shit. I'm sick of you constantly fucking up something that has potential. All you ever do is shoot down opinions that don't match your god damn own. If you don't give a shit then stay the FUCK OUT of threads that I am trying to have an intelligent fucking discussion in. And the same goes for Hydeph. I don't give a fucking shit if you think I'm just trying to sound smart, I couldn't care less, but that kind of bullshit is better left to yourself. Some people DO find it interesting, not everyone is god-damned, child-predator Orpheus. Some people think about this kind of thing for a fucking living, and they earn good money, so why the fuck should I be kept in the dark?!

Oh snap, Arcan, except I disproved intelligent gods in the end! But I realize this all ultimately boils down to personal opinion. Like I said at the end of the essay, I don't even believe in random creation. But hell, it sure is fun to think about.
Edit: I posted this over at FPSB too, but too many of them don't even understand what I said. Most of them are like "But everythig isn't random!" even though once you start reading this you are supposed to consider that everything is. bah.

Here's a nice little mindfuck for you; something I've been thinking about for a while now.
If something is random, it exists without a purpose. Now consider, if you will, that everything in existence, across all time and space, was created randomly. This means everything, EVER-Y-THING, was created without a reason. That statement alone disproves free will. At this early point I'm sure many of you could argue this point: "Oh, well humans were randomly created with the ability of free will". Let me shoot that idea down for you. If everything in the universe is created without a purpose, randomly, then the planet Earth was created randomly as was everything living on it. This means that humans were created randomly, which means that out bodies were created randomly, which means that our brains were created randomly. Ultimately this boils down to the fact that the functions of our brains are all completely random impulses. What does this mean? It means that perception is random. Allow me to elaborate further and, hopefully, make this concept much easier to understand if you don't already.
I actually want you to do this. Take your hand and form a fist. What you have just witnessed is a voluntary action triggered by a series of electrical impulses sent from your brain telling your body to ball your hand into a fist. What you perceive is an act of free will, thus proving that free will exists, right? Wrong, very wrong. As I have already stated, our minds and the functions of our minds are all generated randomly. The electrical impulses sent from your brain triggering a fist is nothing more than another randomly created event in the universe. What you perceive as an act of free will is actually purposeless event. So why, and how, do we perceive these things as this miraculous thing we call "free will"? The answer is simple: Humans do not truly "think". Thought is merely an unorganized, very long, series of random events. The reason that they seem organized to us is because our brains fire random impulses that cause random perception. It is completely by chance that all these perceptions fall in a seemingly organized process of thought, but I'll get into the chances a littler later.
At this point it may seem hard to believe that somehow everything in our universe was created randomly, and yet so many things fall into perfect place. Well consider this: whatever is the source of all this random creation is not bound by the limits of time. This means that it had all the time, or rather lack of the existence of time(ostensibly an infinite amount without measure) to randomly create universe after universe after universe. With this in mind it should be easy to comprehend how simple it was to create out universe with so many events occuring in an organized manner. However, because random events can be generated within the universe, it is not the universe where everything falls into perfect place until the very end. The one universe that was created where everything falls perfectly into place would not be able to create something randomly because everything contained in said universe will seemingly have a purpose to anything else in it.
This is basically the end but I have a few last points I would like to make.
-Because everything is created randomly, there cannot be an intelligent source to creation. In fact, a god could exists, but could have only been created randomly by the ultimate source. This god, which cannot perform with purpose, will randomly create a universe, and so on.
-If everything was created randomly, then there really is no such thing as "purpose". Purpose is merely a perception of what seems to make sense in the grand scheme of things. ut becaue our perception is a random event, what is really there, that seems meaningful, is not.
-Personally I do not believe in random creation. I believe that everything exists with a meaning, but that isn't as fun to think about. This is good brain food.

in Creating 8-bit Decals Post #218286
You can't make custom decals, the game rejects them. Either you use the defaults or you use a 255 0 0 blue, transparent makeshift decal. I'm sure there's a way around it, there always is, but I can't think of one off the top of my head.

Cool stuff, it's good that you're learning how to compile and get things in-game too, as that's one of the more difficult processes of modelling that people generally forego or struggle with.
Oh I've been compiling models for a while now. I do model hacks all the time, I've just never actually modelled something myself. Just wanted to point that out so you guys don't think I'm starting from the very bottom :lol:
