Well, I've never heard that myself, although I have heard that the SKY texture does this. Never noticed any difference, though. Also, I thought AAATRIGGER didn't show up in game! Does, lit very oddly though.
I seem to remember something about texturing brushes that are never seen byt the player with the AAAATRIGGER texture to improve r_speeds. Has anyone tried this, does it work?? Just curious before I get too far into my map andhave to redo it.
yeah, I know - but I want to be able to check the Shoutbox in a little panel on my browser, and if I do ATM, it's backwards and the title and button get in the way.
As all of you know, hl2?s source is in the wrong hands ? Sad b**s are making a fortune on news posts and publicity about their ? ?achievement? ? several community members are taking advantage of the situation and exploiting it. Half-Life 2 ? the game that you?ve been waiting for, for over 5 years is being delayed because of this mess.
We should not stand for this ? So, I propose that we ignore all questions about the stolen code, all released media concerning hl2 and all forum posts that talk about the stolen code and/or links to the hl2 source.
Ignore all posts about hl2?s source and media (unless posted by an official valve spokesman or publisher), All offers of the source on the net or in real life should be reported - if you come across a warez site that?s offering the source ? do not attempt to download it - report it immediately! If you have the illegitimate source code on your computer remove it as of this instant.

This is really pissing me off now...., so from now on if any one tries to get some help with hl2 before it comes out - I?ll have to personally beat them with my computer - it can take a kicking for a good cause.
I URGE YOU TO BOYCOTT ANYTHING HL2 SOURCE RELATED YOU'RE RUINING IT FOR THE GOOD DESCENT PEOPLE WHO PATIENTLY WAIT FOR VALVE TO SORT THIS MESS OUT --- IF YOU DON'T I'LL PUNCH YOUR FeditG TEETH OUT!
I know I?m flaming but if you don't report where you got the source and delete it off your machine - I?m going to start asking for bans.
this topic was dead, why was it ever revisited? kill this topic i say! no more posts > there is a maps and mods forum - which was the reason this topic started in the first place, lets end it at that
You know what, this made me think... Instead of just banning people who got the hl2 source code, try to get as much info from them as possible first - to help valve get ahead of the hackers and end this as soon as possible - I want the game I'll do anything to get it, BUT : if some one on the net or on the street offered me the full hl2 source I?d probably make them bite the curb and forcefully kick them in the back of the head.
i played ab it of deliverance before i lost it. the story goes about blackmesa where still scienitst are disapprearing to make a weapon for the governement but hten there are aeperign alines in new york and people starting to aks question and ten you have to save you buddies from blackmesa and again there is a grunt cleanup team send in, but still a good mod
Thanks Andy for you deleted the "HL2 map" I start to be angry! so I start to write a really mad post but now I don't need that Thanks Andy for the way you handel this problem and the politeness you are to Gongster. It's good for the morale and for TWHL good reputation. Good work
If I were a moderator I wouldn't ban you but I would recommend you deleted the stolen scource code. And report the place where you got it. Just keep mapping for HL until you buy HL2.
OK Back on the bus!!! (Triumph) I mean back to the topic. Ehrm... I'm playing the specialists at the moment. Suberb mod!!! Really like the bullet-time and the shootdodge.
Sharing stolen source code with everyone is not such a good idea. The fact that Valves security was breached and that the code was stolen, means that I now have to wait until late next year for a look at HL2. That doesn't impress me one little bit.
The fact that they are changing the code means that there is a good possibility that your maps created with the unofficial beta, will not actually work with the final release. So it seems that getting a head start, will not actually be getting a head start.
You are welcome to post thoughts and ideas but refrain from posting any maps created with the stolen code, as they will be deleted. ( I deleted your billiards room map because you said it was an HL2 map, and since Valve haven't released HL2, the the only people that can view it are people with the illegal beta, I will not support the use of the stolen source.)
I believe that the best course of action would be to follow Kol's and Seventh's advice.... delete and report.

I think the main thing to consider here is that the unofficial Beta is just that... "unofficial" and recreated from the stolen source code. If you want to look at it that is your business, but what's the point? Some low life stole the source... How stupid is that? I just want to see the finished product, and because of this breach in security, I won't be able to do that for months now... So I am pissed off.

have you thought about the fact that HL2.Beta is Actually a BETA, It probably need some fine tuning before it works, and if i'm not mistaken, the beta is Unofficial? Am i Correct?
