This doesn't sound like a problem with Wally, it sounds like you just need to improve your texture making abilities. Those are professionals who made the default HL textures, and you don't become a professional overnight.
Not so sure about why you think the originals look "clear", though. Most people (and I) think they look blurry, although this is one way of getting rid of pixilating.

Great! That was one of the few online movies where I've had the urge to save it to my disk.
That picture makes my comment even more useless.
I wish people would stop making lame puns about my name all the time...
I don't think ladders were designed to be used with irregular surfaces like that.
I Don't know about the "shooting across the map" thing, as I've never attempted to create a ladder that is "bumpy", but one thing you could try is placing a CLIP brush over the surface you want to climb against, so you wouldn't actually be climbing on the irregular surface. This should clear the problem up.
Edit: Looks like I'm a little late, and some of my theories have already been disproved.

I had a door dissapear once too, and quite a bit of my terrain, although that wasn't cleared up with running vis and rad...
When did anybody say anything about it being a program?
Teh review is IN.
I thought I heard that if somebody was banned, they couldn't even view the site anymore?
... Ate a Tostito chip. And realized this thread is really just means get away with spamming.
... Went on a mountain bike ride.
- Ancient monsters awakened in a tomb expidition deep underground.I tried that once for an Egyptian tomb-like mod, but totally failed (tombs can get boring REALLY fast). I'm original!
Also, many of those ideas like being a security guard and being a soldier have been used before, but combined with many other plot elements that have been used many times before, they can bring out fairly original storys.
Poke 646 did it really well. Just try not to use too many gigantic skyscrapers and it should be fine.
Sounds awesome. My only question: HL1 or Source?
Edit:
Edit:
I'm thinking of reskinning models and changing their size and importance, like a little garg replaces the alien slave, and the slave is huge and dangerous. What do you think?Duh.
I don't know anything about modeling, but this has only happenend to me when a model (or some brush based entitys) starts on top of another entity.
I just realized I should check dates on things more.
I just completed Sweet Half-Life, and wondered why every map had huge, barren hallways.
Its not THE wad to rule them all.But it is the only half-life 2 wad, as far as I know.
JUST a wad file with Half-Life 2 textures in it? This is THE wad file with Half-Life 2 textures in it!
w_polys: below 900, preferably 800
e_polys: 10,000 maybe? I don't know.
fps: no idea
These standards are probably pretty high these days, but I get a certain feeling of accomplishment from being able to keep the r_speeds this low.
Also, with multiplayer maps, you have to keep in mind that many of the people who are still playing half-life and its mods online are using older systems. At least that's what I think.

I thought he was talking about the file associations.
Links? do you mean leaks?
Ther is a GCF file that needs to be opened in order to access the WAD. You can use a program like GCFScape to do this.
How do you do that? I must KNOW!
Not exactly sure what you mean by "addiction to the wads", but the tutorials section here on TWHL will get you started on the right path.
You should always read the system requirements before buying any game, unless you have a really 1337 system...
I read on VERC that there was no more work being done on version 3.5, so what there is now is all you're ever going to get. I also heard that the angle pointer doesn't work, so that would be the cause of your problems.
I do that for some things (like texture alignment), but it's hard to get the scale and everything perfect (or nearly perfect), when you rely on screenshots alone.
Edit: it's also hard to catch up with some of the manta to get good screenshots of them, even with noclip on.

Pay attention, 007.I never said it allowed for more screen space than yours does, just that it gives more than the standard XP themes.
I have also tied decompiling the Xen maps to get one but long story short, It would have taken me longer to fix the original than to find a prefab or make my ownWhen you make prefabs from decompiled maps, it actually helps to not try and "fix" the original, but instead take a block and clip out the general shape of the object, using the decompiled one as a template, due to the many off-grid vertices that the original will have.
This usually works better for less complex objects, but just thought I'd share that with you in case you were wondering.
Really? I didn't notice it in the Half-Life .pak file last time I checked...
Edit: I just looked through the pak file again and didn't find anything

Perhaps you're missing something... But I didn't catch it!
Here are manta prefabs I made:

Hope It's what you're looking for. They aren't identical to the original, but enough so that most people wouldn't notice the minor differences.

In about 2 hours, I'll try to make a prefab and post it in the map vualt or somewhere else. Or, if you can't wait, you can try decompiling some xen maps.
I don't know of anywhere that you can get them, but it isn't an entity, because there are textures for them in the xeno wad. Besides, I think they would be less blocky, if they were models.
Actually, I think it's supposed to be facing west.
Edit: Oops, I didn't notice this was for source engine. Don't know if that still applies...

'98 themes are awesome, in my opinion. Plus, they save on space.
Mine's pretty boring and cluttered, but I like it that way! http://img136.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mydesktop4nr.jpg
Is it just me, or did you rip most of those textures out of the Afraid of Monsters mod?
Also, that bed, along with the doors, looks way off-scale. Fix it or get a 3-star rating!

That guy in the front with the suit looks freaky. What's up with his hands being so long? Anyway, I can't look into the mod right now, got to go to bed.
With my shovel and my backpack I'm gonna dig an hole too cool -Ummm... what's that supposed to mean?.
and don't freak out if I tell you I'm 13...Nobody freaked out when I said that!
Emo kids don't cut themselves. They just use a red marker to draw lines on their wrists. So I guess that would mean you'd have a red striped lawn... 
TWHL flag? TWHL building? WTF!?!?!?!
Umm... I don't think making it 1 unit thick would make a difference.
Really? Me wants now! I might finally attempt to learn how to model!
Edit: Or maybe I took that the wrong way...

Exactly how I would have put it, Strider. One of the main reasons HL2 maps don't appeal to me is that few people are pulling away from the included material in the game. And until most people start making new stuff for their mods, I'm not going to become interested in it at all. But that's just me!
Well, I heard all these really good reviews about the first one, so I downloaded it. But when I got to playing it... Meh, just didn't like it all that much, so I never finished it.
So then today, I heard about part 2 on steam update news, and figured I'd give it a try. Still didn't like it. Maybe it's just HL2 maps that don't appeal to me, but I thought it was really boring. I didn't get 5 minutes into it before I stopped playing.

Me too.
