Ahh. Allrighty then. Thanks for the info guys.
Basically everyone knows i got a new system by now, and i have Dx 10 installed but i don't think that episode 2 is using it.
In the options it says use directx version 9, but how do i select version 10

I think that runs regardless of player interference

Well guys i got it all running. I ended up going with a BFG TECH NVIDIA GEForce 8800 GTS. The ASROCK P43 motherboard. Got the same processor. I have a 1TB HD that my dad got me, i also have 4gig DDR2 Ram, Corsair. (Even though windows XP thinks it's only 3.18 gig)
I transferred the DVD RW drive from my dell, and i'm upgrading the power supply to a name brand as soon as i have the funds.
Everything went off without a hitch. I had to call microsoft and explain that my old computer doesnt have xp installed anymore in order to re-activate it again on this comp.
After that though, loaded up steam, and portal, and i'm loving the results.
Getting average 130-140 fps just with max settings, and 80-90 with a 2 portals open, and looking into both.

Problem is in America; Stupid people can get jobs when they know someone in the business. Those stupid people take place of smarter, more qualified people, and the country goes to shit.
Have the elevator target a relay for each floor.
The relay targets the buttons to be active only when the elevator has stopped.

Loads of people seem to have downloaded the same incorrect-tagged file thoughI had the same file when i download it back in the day.
But then i actually bought George's hits album and i got skeptical.
Daub, I dont know where you get your information, but ZZ-Top does not do bad to the bone. It's George Throrogood and the Destroyers.
Anyway:
I have ringtones set for almost every person i know that calls me often.
My moms ringtone is Snow - Red hot chili Peppers
My dad's ringtone is La Grange - ZZ-top
My Default ringtone is The Hook - Blues traveller
My girlfriends ringtone is Sooner or Later - Breaking Benjamin
And any of my band's guys' rintones is Natural Life - Breaking Benjamin.

Aztec is probably 15 sec from site to site. Depending which route you take.
that's wonderful
Now that i know im dealing with christmas presents i talked my rents into getting me some better products.
Keep in mind i'm building this to get it up and running, and i'm adding to it as i go along. I do plan on extending my ram to 4 gig, and eventually to DDR3 when it's less expensive.
So i'm getting the 8800 not the 9800, i'm gettin the 2 gig of ram i showed (it's only like $30 now) and my dad's picking me up a 500gig HD.
And about the motherboard, i already have the mobo, cpu, and dvd+rw drive installed.
@ Satch.
Reminds me of my old ZEOS 586

You could make it a hostage rescue map.
But have one hostage in the map, inaccessible to anyone.
On one condition, kill the hostage, and the terrorists win i think,
On the other condition, teleport him (or move the floor) onto a hostage rescue point to make the ct's win.
This was a spur-of-the moment idea, so it might not work, but you'll have to test for yourself.

Well i don't think the Wii is winning this console 'war' I actually think the 360 is in the lead as of now. Don't get me wrong, i love the wii, but i just think a lot of the games don't have good wi-mote controls.
Except shooters, and Wii-only games.
Plus, this generation as well as the last, Nintendo has been attracting the younger crowd. A good percentage of the titles don't interest me in the slightest.
Ps3 def took too long to release their ps-network or whatever. I bet that hurt them as well.

I love chrome. Just got it 20 minutes ago and i like it.
I love the pr0n windows too.
AKA Incognito window.
It doesn't show any browser history, or load cookies or save any temp files it encounters.

Thanks for the link there penguin. I'll have to check newegg for some powersupplies; which will raise my budget, but i don't care. It's just another week i'll have to deal with my dell.
spike, I've dealt with an 80 gig HD in my dell for the 4 years i've been using it. Plus i have a 300 gig external i have for backup. I think i'll be fine on storage.
Yeah raver. I do plan on getting a quad core in the future. I want my system to be good now, and better later; when i can afford it.
I want to build for the future upgrades.
I just hope my motherboard will last me about 4-5 years.
Another question i got for you guys is i keep seeing video cards with DVI-I ports. Am i gonna need a special monitor for that? Or is there an adapter or something..
EDIT
Nevermind...
after reviewing better cards, i come to find out Geforce 8800 GTS comes with adapters

In the American state of Connecticut, A pickled cucumber is not legally considered a pickle unless it bounces.
Well dark tree. I know that anything you pay for in london is probably going to be twice as much as it would be in the new york store. What with our shitty economy and all.
I'm a 2.5 hour train ride from new york, and i met some girl in Jamaica that lives in london. but i rarely get to speak to her with this 5 hour time difference we have.

PLus i hear their education system is different. They spend less time off than americans and their semesters are closer to one another so the information stays in the cranium longer.

Sounds like an animated texture problem to me. check to see if you do have any animating textures, and if you made a texture that wasnt made to be animated, take the + or - off it. Thats the animation tag.
Yeah. I didnt have a problem getting my mobo in the case with the CPU and heat sync installed.
Now i just need my HD, Graphics card, and RAM.
So i'm hoping christmas pulls thru for that.

TEACH, raver. Teach.
Cant you edit the texture memory?
Mind if you could post your output setup and push values for me? I STILL can't get it to work.
And i'm just trying to push a box.
And i'm just trying to push a box.
Ok i'll have to experiment with it i guess.
Thanks grim.
Allright i tried experimenting with a brand new map.
I set a func_push to have a physbox as a parent, made a button, a game_ui and a logic_compare.
The Ui triggers the compare (via the Y-Axis and SetValueCompare), and here's the compare outputs:
OnEqualTo - Push - Disable
OnGreaterThan - Push - Enable
OnLessThan - Push - Disable
Push is the trigger push i have, and the speed is set to 1000
and the angle is 90 deg, which would be forward considering the push is behind the box.
The push also overlaps the box as well.
I don't get it.

It's like writing a paper Skals, Once you know what to write about and how to outline it, You still gotta write the damn thing.
My outputs arent triggering the pushes.
I'm still a noob at the outputs so i don't exactly know what i'm doing.
But i'm not getting a valid output when i changed the thruster to a func_push. It shows an arrow with a red line across it.

I got it working but like you've said it's damn unpredictable.
How'd you get the func_pushes to work grim?

I'll just have to put my mind into actually making a vehicle.
I wanna try and make a pod-racer.
