Looks cool, but Notch has repeatedly stated that an official skyland realm is planned for the near future (aleady being developed infact, I remember seeing some screenshots). MC is just one of those games that never needed modding IMO.

You guys CAN see Strider's posts right?

Screenies look cool but I think there needs to be a bit more going on at the top. Ceilings aren't just for lighting after all. It's where you run things that need to stay out of reach, but at the same time be accessable to maintenance personnel. Right now in my office I can count 3 sets of pipes and cables which are running along the tops of the walls and along the ceilings.
Of course, if you don't want these kinds of things on display, use hatches and boxes.

Unfortunately, we do not.
To be fair, YOU try coding this thing. I'm under the impression that PB is just human.Nah, I believe that there has got to be some degree of penguinicity in there somewhere. Why do you think the guy is so mysterious. Not a single photo online anywhere.
Anyway, programming a website is in no way easy, especially when it's live and you want to avoid downtime.
Sure, point out the faults that you notice, but don't just lay into the guy. I personally think we should all be grateful that he keeps the site up and running as it is.
Sigh, Urby. When did you turn into such a troll?I don't think I've changed. Maybe your opinion of me has changed.
I guess I have been a bit more blunt towards stupid people lately. Blame work for that.
like using an original Xbox over an Xbox 360.Which is equal to eating a hippo turd over an even bigger hippo turd...
Sooo... We're making The Core in the wrong engine huh?...
Fuck.
Fuck.
The plot for the last hour or so of MGS2 was written with ketchup and a spatula.
Other than that, awesome game.
I got myself a copy of Just Cause 2 on Sunday, played a bit and it seems fun. Gonna be getting the Old World Blues DLC for Fallout: New Vegas when I get home tonight. Still haven't finished the other 2 DLCs I got, not to mention the main story. Racked up 200+ hours of gameplay in FNV and still not finished. Take heed Call of Duty developers. THAT is value for money.
Modern Warfare 3 looks set to have a decent 30 minute campaign. :rly:

After perusing this thread for a while I have come to the conclusion that Dimbark wouldn't manage a deep thought if he fell down a well.
I wouldn't say that time created us. Time destroys mankind and everything it creates.
In that sense, time is the most powerful super weapon in existence, which probably explains man's desire to harness it.

My take on time travel is this.
To go back in time in one single dimension would be catastrophic. Let's just forgo the fact that the means to perform such an act as travelling back in time would de-construct itself around you. Also, what's to say that you yourself would reverse your aging process until the point where you no longer exist?
If either of these scenarios were somehow avoided and it was possible for you to travel back, keeping your current form intact, what happens when you get there. If so much as a single person see's you, then the entire human race would become obsessed with this future technology and focus solely on it having now proved that it is in fact possible. Suddenly you've buggered the time line. Certain scientific advances would be overlooked in favour of time travel and the modern day which you return to (should you choose and be able to do so) would change dramatically. Hell, you may go back to the present day only to find that because of this, the human race has died out.
An ideal solution would be this. Time travel is possible, by jumping from one dimensional plane to another. That way, you can go back and do whatever you like, as to return you simply (heh) jump back onto your previous dimensional plane and life carries on as normal. That way, it would also be impossible for scientist government tards to go back and change things for their own gain. However, it would be possible for school children to go back and interview the likes of George Washington and Abe Lincoln in person without worrying about knocking over a vase and causing a nuclear holocaust or some shit.

Fuck you. Minecraft wins.I used to think like that too. Aahh, memories.
Because it's a gib and the 1998 AI cannot determine where it will land?
Apparently (according to our own Soup Miner) shrooms simply make you paranoid. For the best results, I would work with a fictional drug. That way you are free and clear to throw in whatever the hell you like.
The chocolate bar is an unused model from Opposing Force, it was left in the .pak file but never used.WRONG!
Heh, sorry. But yeah, it was used.
Why not build at 90 degree angles and then rotate to 45 degrees by rotating while holding shift? 
I don't understand why these two suddenly stopped playingThe same reason anyone stops playing anything. You can only do the same thing over and over so many times before it starts to get dull. Bear in mind that Archie and I started played back in the day when it was just classic mode in your browser.
Nice to see some varied lighting. When will C42 be playable?
Nothing better than a good HL SP mod.

You know me. I never shy away from a quick VO job.
Last couple of times I tried it wouldn't connect anyway.
Seems to have been a common issue.

Join the TWHL Steam Group and you'll get a notification. Easy.
That looks interesting ninja... what is it?
Also, are the textures temporary? It's just that it could look sooo much better with custom textures.

You're such an idiot.
I would have thought a lot more people owned CS 1.6. That said I wouldn't pay £5.99 for it. I got it free when I registered my Blue-Shift CD key on steam. Got Day of Defeat, Opposing Force and Blue Shift for free.
Also, if anyone is still confused about the time, I just posted an announcement on the TWHL and SnC Steam groups so you all get a little note when it kicks off.

ok ive managed to use my new blood-stained axe in place of my crowbar i just unpacked my pak file into the valve folder and renamed my models crowbar and overwrote the originals.You don't need to unpack your PAK file, all that does is double your file size! You also don't need to overwrite anything.
All you need is to have the same file structure. If you have crowbar.mdl in your "valve/models" then it will automatically take priority over the file in the PAK. Same goes for sprites, sounds etc.
I prefer being awake at night. It is a lot quieter so I tend to get more done.
if you want to say I did to call me an idiot, fuck you.Can I just call you an idiot because I genuinely dislike you?
...because I do
...and you are.
@Dragos: Any chance of getting that truck to use in The Core. You'd be credited. 
Far Cry 2 is fantastic when it comes to graphics. The problem is that the gameplay is utter crap.
Far Cry 3 doesn't look much better and the gameplay seems more like an arcade game with the points showing up when you perform certain actions. It doesn't look all that great and I still have the bad taste of FC2 in my mouth.
No dice.

Wow Crollo... just wow.
How have gotten this far in life without falling into something or getting run over?
It is very simple to avoid getting hit by the particularly nasty viruses. Most of it is common sense.

Jesus, when did the TWHL community get so fucking bitchy!? Pull your panties out of your vaginas and post some fucking screenshots.
(By the by, that's not me being sexist. That's me hating whiney little bitches.)
Looks pretty sweet Dragos but a little dark for my tastes.

I'm sitting up until 1am tonight to see Skyrim. I watched the preview the other day and it looks pretty sweet. The only issue I can see is the combat. Melee still looks flat, even in the days of advanced physics systems and fluid animation you can strike a guy in the face with a sword and he just shrugs it off. Keep slashing his face a few more times and eventually he falls over. Pretty disappointing.
Other than that, still really excited.
A lot of the stuff is gimmicky console bullshit which I could do without. What the fuck is a WiiU!? Good job NintenD'oh!

The Sims Social. Mixing The Sims with Social Networking...
Hmmm, like mixing vomit with shit?
I am still waiting for Modern Warfare 2 to drop down to £5 because there is no way I am paying the same price for a half-assed 4 hour campaign as I would pay for, say, Skyrim which promises 300 hours of gameplay.
Enough said.

Halo 4? Modern Warfare 3? I just lost all faith in humanity.

Might have to join in on this one too.
I've tried making a decent pool a couple of times.

How did they manage to fuck up the texture so bad?
Well, there's the Fallout 3 models, a few from Vampire Masquerade Bloodlines and Hitman blood money. A few from CoD4 too.
A lot of them have been edited to work with goldsource and include features such as additive / transparent texturing, but their base models will have been direct ports.
To be honest, there are a few models which I would love to use myself but I'm wondering if it's worth all the "OMG YOU STEALZ MODULZ!!11" I would get. :rly:

That selection pack would be awesome if half the stuff wasn't stolen from commercial titles and other artists with no credits.
They Hunger used it but it was originally created by Valve. I think you can find it in the SDK model files.
On a lighter note:
Awww dammit. I thought that was just the one .wad. Thanks, that'll come in handy.
Dammit. I had a copy of Blazeer's Asian texture pack on my old PC but forgot to copy it over. Can't find it online anywhere.
Whatever happened to that guy...?

If you're seeking revenge and you know the right people, the internet is much less secure than PSN. 
Spirit should be treated as a mod, not an update. It comes with a folder of additional files which you may need to replace standard HL ones.
You'll need Steam HL or the latest version of WON half-life to run it properly.

The fact that Sony didn't announce this to the world as soon as it happened is a black mark on their name. I'm sure if card details were at risk they would have made everyone aware the moment they realised.
As for name, address and contact details, I generally could give less of a shit.
If I don't know the number I don't answer the phone. If I open the door to a salesman, I close it again. Simple.

Spirit of HL would need a stand alone mod format to work because of all the new features and code that it adds. Probably not worth the download size for a single map.
Wow Dragos!!! The lighting is pretty incredible in those pics!!! What engine is that!!!
( waits for stupid people to chime in and call me an idiot )

Or if it's singleplayer you could use Spirit of Half-Life (which you should be already)
Mind you, I think that only works on OpenGL systems, so is a nono for Vista and Win7 users.
