I lost track of that in the last few weeks of college. I'll have to read through it and carry on with it in betwee the job hunt surges.
Ok so i've finished my 2 college years and I guess I'm unemployed as of today. So to amuse myself i thought i'd make my own compo.
Brief:
Create a map based on smoe sort of production line. Make a factory that builds G-men or an alien mining facility that digs up crystals. Just make somthing that looks busy and organised (or you may wan't somthing to go wrong). Hell you could even go for the original theme of HL1 and create a working sector of Black Mesa before the incident. (or during the resonance cascade if you like explosions)
Rules:
HL1 only.

Ah the beta stuff. This was what it looked like when PCG reviewed it in november 1997. Then they took a year making a completely different game. Luckily their mappinf skills seemed to improve over that year.
I got a couple of the videos from when it was anounced in July 1997. Man it looked crap. The diablo looked cool t mind you. Shame they removed it from the final release.

Aha. I got it working. A little bit of tweaking here and there. 31 day trial. I still may go legit though.
I'll fix it.
Gee, sorry to be a pain in the ass but "I cannot do it better than that." right now. I am swamped with college work. :s
I want credit for my work. In fact i'll even whack a little registered tradmark in there (just in case.)
Nah. I'm kidding. I trust you.

Ok. here's the thing.
I downloaded MS3d 1.6.6a or somthing about 2 months ago and ran it through the 30 day trial. Then i went on a hunt for a free key and when i found one and tried it it said that the version had expired and that i needed to wait 2 minutes for it to register. I waited and nothing happened.
RegVac didn't work
Re-installing didn't work.
Downloading a different version didn't work.
God damn it. It's just easier to go legit!

Oh and red. You might need to hit your refresh button. The maps section no longer says 'banana' recuringly.

I do my own skins for all of my mods. 
Do you mean you make a scientist do an idle animation in Hammer or are you making a custom one in MS3d?
I don't know what the problem would be if its a hammer error but if its a custom animation then make sure the animation is set to loop in the models .qc file.

Erm...I know. It's supposed to.
I know most of you visited the site at some point but I decided to make this thread to make you aware of news updates.
This way you can keep track of MOD progressions as well as discuss anything in the news that may bother you.

I'm aware the lights are floating. Also i'm going to thin the lights a bit and make some other i only used point entity lights in the canteen because the textures used as lights there don't actually generate light.
Well I'm working with the (extremely) limited resources available.
2 faces one of which is mine. I'll have to photoshop some faces then.

Try a a horror element induced by solving puzzles with your combat skills with a bit of randomness thrown in.Ah-ha! Perfect Kol. I never actually realised but that is the exact genre of HL:Manifestation. I'm working really hard on that one at the minute because the other team member (Turnipz, my Girfriend) is really pushing me to finish it.
Ah, yes. I forgot to mention that. I'll have to update my site too.
I am now part of a 2 person team. UrbanTurnip.Inc!
Ah, Archtecture tuts. Perfect. Time to get rid of that boring blockiness that curse my every map.
