Lousy screenshot in my opinion.

Two new enemies? Where? The eyes are part of a Combine soldier, and the thing behind is...can't remember what it is now, but it's in HL2. While you're travelling in the pod thing, look down on the walkways and you'll see 'em.

E for sure. I wanna see them blow up the HL1 engine. 
This isn't a poll...
As I said in IRC:

I must agree.
HL2 does not use Hammer 3.4. If you look at your "Play Games" menu, you'll see an item called "Source SDK". Open that and it will download and install all the tools you'll need to map for Source, including the new Hammer.
CS:S does not make use of WAD files. Textures for Source mapping are now called Materials because they also contain information relating to bump-mapping and other effects.
All the Source materials are stored in GCF files, which act a little like Zip files. They are located in your "SteamApps" folder. You will a program like "GCFScape" to extract them.
Hammer cannot (for some retarded reason) read off two seperate GCF's for materials. By this I mean if you're mapping for HL2, you do NOT have access to the CS:S materials and vice-versa. You'd need to extract the CS:S materials to the hl2/materials directory. Make sure you include all the extra materials you used however (use BspZIP to do that, it's a SDK tool).

It's inelegant: there's no FTP access, I doubt it could support PHP, or SQL or anything like that. There are better free hosts out there.
Nuts, peer pressure. What did they teach us in school? Oh yeah...
NO!
NO!
My avatar is original. It rocks.
And I can't take a photo, the camera is too far in. I can't reach the button.

No, I'm lying. My camera is in my nose right now actually.
Nope, you won't have the prob if you use textured lights, but you can't have effects like flickering and the like. You can get them to switch on and off, I think. There's an example map in the vault on how to acheive that effect.
lol!
Or...
Ain't from aroun' 'ere are ya? We don't want no foreigners 'ere mate! Piss off and get some bloody details.
Man, talking Aussie is hard.

Well done, moron.
don't sleepYou get so much more done that way.
I do, but I don't regularly stick a camera up there.
Thanks to everyone who entered. Judging will start ASAP for me.
Odd. The Omega drivers shouldn't be causing it (I run the Omega drivers myself, for my GeForce 4). Try reverting to the official drivers.
Habboi, of course it's Faceposer.
Nifty little program, when it works.

J3r3my, are you sure it's completely black and not just really dark? Open up a photo manipulation program and adjust the brightness: does a picture appear, or is it black? I notice that when I take screenshots from HL2, I have to brighten them before I release them as they come out a lot darker than the game.
Yes, with a nice shot of the inner workings of your nose.
Pleasant.
Pleasant.
Nice pics. A tad bit dark though.
Loving those lights, they remind me of HL2.

Er, why?
You've any idea how large that list would be?

Even if the player can't see it, the engine will: therefore, it'll render it. Unless the brush itself faces the void, the engine will render it. Anything that the player cannot and will not see should be textured with null.
Dark, freudian stuff you push out.Good 'ol Freud. He says stuff like those dark thoughts are hidden in your subconsciousness. Dreams, he says, sometimes act as a link to those subconcious thoughts.
If I tried to iron I would burn the house down.How the hell you could possibly do that with an iron is beyond me.
Yeah, go for it. Remaking old, crappy maps is fun, because you can laugh at yourself and say "Ha, what a shitty mapper I was!". ;D
I would've remade my first map (which is here on TWHL), but I can't because the DL no longer works and I don't have the RMF anymore.

You geek, don't you want to go to the mystical land of forks?
I would doubt that.
Whack the compile log in here.
Indeed, there are.
@Alex: We must now work quickly...
They know too much.

Yeah, it does.
Nerds.
Odd error, I've never come across it before. None of the error sites have it listed either...
This is HL1 correct? You aren't mapping for HL2 are you?
Try check for problems (Alt-P) in Hammer and see if there are any bugs. Post the compile log in here.

Only a few hours (or less) left. Get those entries in people!

I find that the pointfile is the best way to locate leaks. Better yet, building your map properly also helps.
I can't even remember the last time I had an actual leak (i.e. not caused by an entity sitting in the void). Just be careful when you map.

By the way, the Creation stories (Genesis) are not actually supposed to be read as what happened. I cannot quite remember what it was for, but it was actually made up.
Steam isn't that bad. It's not the greatest, but it isn't that bad.
MX440Looks nervously from side to side...
Heh. And floating around on dust.
I think I do too. As well as in B+W (or greyscale).
I've seen worse, thanks to someone on #twhlregs who shan't be mentioned.
That is correct.
Make a seperate WAD file that contains all the textures you need.
No, it isn't. Make the frame seperately.
