My room is 5 % complete xD . Just started it today

[EDIT-09.01.2009] Heh , I think the descriptive word for my map will be : canal or basemenet or sewer or something ...

[EDIT-Later]

I have a small problems. I found out how can I add ropes but in-game they don't stay the same like the distance in hammer and the bad thing is that they don't hold the fence in mid-air(aprox. the same position as it appears in hammer)( the fence is a prop_physics).

Here's what I want it to be ( the yellow lines represent the desired length for the ropes) :

Here's how it's behaving in-game ( I actualy used the gravity gun, but it shouldn't go that far ! the ropes are just going with the fence, not holding it :

Also, wtf is wrong with the lighting ?

Hmmm.... something like artweaver, but the artweaver brush painting is extremely developed. And this program does cost . The free version doesn't enchant me.

Legitimate copies of Photoshop are generally priced around $500(or more ? don't now really)

GimpShop - Free
Gimp - Free
Paint.Net - Free
Artweaver - Free

Paint.Net = the beginner-intermediate transition for a user

Artweaver = almost the same as above only a little more advanced

Gimp,GimpShop= advanced users

Photosop = Expert users.

This is my opinion, but GimpShop is for expert users too I guess. And it's totally free.

Free.$500 ?

What do I choose ?

You guessed it, I use photoshop too !

But really I love to test and work with open-source programs or free programs. It's so much fun for me !

Wow, at first I wanted just a 250 GB and somebody from here (maybe you) recommended me a 500 gb . But... what's the price in euros ? How much does it cost a 500 Gb/750 gb ?

Because here in romania it's that cost+the cost of import+the cost for profit(and that's big)+TVA(aprox 20 % )

Yeah it's a very nice start for novices. But for intermediate ones like me, GIMP is much better.
I remember there is one more program like PAINT.NET but far more advanced at the chapter BRUSH ...

It's called Artweaver ( if I remember correctly) . That program is good for artists.

Face the truth. Even I do know to map a little for source I still love goldsource. And most of the people on TWHL I think still love mapping for hl1.

And if this thread is for goldsource, and you don't like it then make one for source. And then we'll see how many mappers will prefer source and how many goldsource.

[EDIT] I noticed some change in your behaviour penguinboy in the last weeks or so ... I know I can judge nobody, but your posts are a little immature from my point of view ... is that because of the holidays ?

It amuses me how they don't drop more than 1-2 euros from their original games but other games have a massive drop in price.

Example :

Portal :14,99?
3,74?

Half-Life 2: Episode Two :14,99?
13,49?

Because if it would have dropped more I would have bought hl2ep2

Something like "Amateur Scientist" would be nice as I like studying all kinds of science things but I'm not experienced in none of the domains. I anyway do some electric things and I'm a LEDlover ....(this could be a title too

).

If you don't believe me , here's my blog : http://sjackm.wordpress.com/

Unfortunately it's in romanian, but I posted a video(romanian) composed of 5 clips where I designed an 8-cups of water battery with no salt, using aluminum and copper. Later I added salt to prove it fastens(is this the correct word ? lol) the reaction(otherwise known as a catalyzer or whatever, I'm not good at english)

So here are my options :

1. Amateur Scientist
2. LED-Lover

or even ...
3. Crazy Dude but that would be the least ...
