mine and grim's are custom, they aren't ripped from vista itself, because microsoft doesnt let people. it's just made to look like vista (the minimize and mzx buttons dont look anything like vista btw), therefore custom.

not that i care, heh.

in Coding proposal Post #198362
i am very interested. i myself am a visual basic programmer, and havent gotten fully into c++ yet, and i know alot of the HL/2 coding is copy/paste, but i dont know what :P .

my suggestion is at the end the tutorial, have a small section about what changes you are using hl2. (the file trees are similar iirc)

TWHL needs more coding tutorials! :D
but, including it for HL2 would be more useful for me. :P

Also Zombie your maps are CRAP Compared to Kasperg. You are in no position to bash, or give seriouis suggestions to him.
omg. i must defend Elof here. his maps aren't crap. it seems purely ironic that on a thread full of people talking about opinions and such, you blurt out and say that.

also, your other sentence is wrong also. different people are better at different parts of mapping. I myself am good at complex entity work and tricky displacements, and suck at lighting and brushwork. i know people who absolutely pwn at lighting, but suck at everything else. to say that someone cant comment on someones map because you yourself dont like that persons maps is stupidly retarded. in fact, elof hasnt even released many maps, and i doubt you have even played them, so your opinion is rendered useless.

dont go saying things like that without backup. and in this case, you cant back it up.

...marshmallows...
it just doesnt sound right, you know?
you dont say 'marshmallows', do you?
well, you might, in other countries and stuff...
i personally prefer the first spelling.
marshmellows.
yes. much better.

What the hell? Fullbright is the best lighting possible. Also, a gaping hole to the void really gives ambience to a map.

Anyway, I won't comment on anything, except that it's better than anything I could ever make (although that's not saying much, hehe.)

People still do these things with the goldsource engine because of the sheer classic aspect of it. Duh its outdated, but its still one fo the most popular engines around. People still play Quake and Doom, what do you have to say to them?
the goldsource engine was made for half-life only. it is a modified quake II engine. doom isnt based on the quake engine, it was made before quake. if anything, quake would be based off doom. (but i dont think it is)
Goldsource games were made only by valve or gearbox.
anyways, quake and doom arent goldsource games.

11 games are goldsource, and only 2 aren't on steam. popular? not very.
the quake engine is popular, goldsource is a spinoff.

discovered this yesterday :D
heres a summary for the lazy:
1. go to site
2. type 'login'
3. enter whatever username
4. if you type 'dir' you can see APPLY.EXE
5. type 'apply.exe'
6. do question thing.

not sure if it's in the article habboi linked to, but i discovered this, instead of running apply.exe, type in 'THECAKEISALIE' and you get a cryptic message and a 'video feed'

EDIT: it was in the article, never mind :P

whats your logon username?
are you using a folder in documents and settings as a map folder?
I've had a similar probelm where i had my map directory as my WON installation, labelled as 'Half-Life 1.5', i renamed to Half-Life 1-5 and it worked fine, but in the end i switched to C:Half-LifeMaps (Half-Life isn't the game, its my modding folder)
try switching to a folder like C:Maps .

in Has Steam Gone Crazy? Post #195181
i dont really mind, but it would be nice to hide demos or something like that, i'm sure as steam gets more and more games and demos, steam will get that kind of option...

i mostly agree with Ant's crazy rant above, except that i have heard that the da vinci code (not having read it myself) is not 'crappily written', but is actually very good, this coming from people who couldn't give a flying fuck about religion. (although the "OMG I R RELIGIOUS AND I R BAN TISH BOOK!" is the worst)
also, nothing valve can do can stop me liking steam. it has a good file system, it provides updates more regularly than patches would, it allows new content to be injected into a game, it ensures all clients are using the same version, and it allows valve to release media more redily and episodic content, it also allows small-time companies like Introversion, Tripwire and Ritual to release software at low cost, universal multi-language support, and ffs, they are selling plush headcrabs!

in summary: STFU and get over it, wow a few extra games in the list, if you dont like it, use the compressed window and collapse the 'not installed' list.

for server vids (i.e. recording a networked game from a spectator's view on an unused computer) gamecam is best.
