in Wally Texture Question Post #171412
textures that use odd dimensions get slightly distorted in-game such as:
24, 48, 80, 96, 192 etc. Stick with 'doubling dimensions' eg. 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256 etc. try not to use any other dimension for a cleaner texture. And as Capn' P said, wally converts bmp's into 8 bit when you import them, so they will lose a little quality if you made your textures initially in 24 bit or higher.

I was thinking i'd spare you some hassel and make my own room. I'll make my comics into custom materials and convert the office textures over and get working, nothing too special but. Unless ofcourse you've begun work on it and have something special in mind..? :quizzical:

Just because he showed some random disgusting porn pictures that everybody knows about doesn't mean he is some kind of crazy porn maniac.
I know, and i think i'm past that :). Still, disturbing but, regardless of the video quality.
Try googlevideo and search for napalm.
I made the mistake of searching Google for a picture of a sniper rifle (for an old movie i never finished) and was presented with a picture of the aftermath of a headshot with a high-calibre rifle - not a pretty thing at all. Kind of sticks to the back of your mind and does'nt leave.

Yay, lets all laugh at a guy getting smashed to bits. Y'all call me weird when I watch porn, yet it's ok to get off on people getting killed? I don't like americans.
I agree, even though i am one of those people who called you weird for watching porn! :lol:

But seriously if this video is what i think it is, i don't want to watch it, there's a big difference between funny and just plain wrong. If you enjoy watching a real man get blown up, you truley are sick. (I'm assuming this is what this video is from the replies and title).

Sounds like a good idea, will try!

EDIT: Alright cool, when i went to line 2041 it showed an incorrect texture refference, i fixed it and tried to run the map again, it says theres a problem on a different line 2021 or something. I'm guessing the's are the locations where i had seen all the texture glitches. I'll try correcting them all and it should hopefully run! :)

SHIT, SHIT, SHIT.
I'm so close to completing this CS:S map, but friggin' pointless problems keep occuring! First was the Bumpmaps not appearing, finally i fixed that. Now when i try to open map i get this error:

Out of memory loading solid.

So i click Ok, and this appears:

File C:SteamSteamApps....strider_oasis.vmf, line 2041: error 7

Click Ok again and Steam shutsdown. I noticed before i saved and exited the map (before this problem occured) some textures weren't appearing, that's when i though re-opening the map would refresh it or something, then this shite appeared. Any suggestions o-wise ones? This maps giving me the absolute shits. :nervous: :aggrieved:

Avoid: Doom, Resident Evil, House of Wax (remake), 28 Days Later etc.

I agree on the Tarantino Movies and Sin City, also see Batman Begins, War of The Worlds, The Omen Trilogy (the originals, good horror movies), Enemy at the gates/Saving Private Ryan (all the good war films) and Snatch.
