Me:
hugh has a large shlong
God:
He's wealthy, right?
Me:
yes
God:
I see.
Me:
and his shlong is large.
God:
Where did he get it?
Me:
you gave it to him
God:
I didn't have it to give.
Me:
yea, there's no chance that your shlong is as large as Hugh's
God:
Why not? Aw.

2. research the 'titles.txt' file
3. same as above
5. not sure if th models are the same format but you could always reskin the hands, else copy over whatever models you heed for the hands
6. try replacing the suit model with the armour?

hope this helps

its strange that some games with the 'dirty' look textures are said to be 'realistic' even though games with boring levels like fear are more accurate :P
although maybe its a good thing, fear is damn boring.

YAY!
but....i cant say i didnt expect these exact results :P
anyways, good work dew, kas & trapt!
If I had a choice I'd make it so you had to remake any level from any N64 game ;D It's be fun.
That an awsome idea!...but not specific enough

wewt upgrades ftw!

well hl2 was sponsored by ati so i spose they used ati cards...i dont think that they would do that on purpose, they just didnt optimize for nvidia...
or maybe its bcus the FX series suck?

in Desktops of late August/Early September Post #194600
i'm thinking of a widescreen lcd for my workhorse (this compy) when i upgrade and this crt for my gaming one, because
1. crts are better for gaming
2. i'm not getting 2 LCD monitors (i r cheap)
3. widescreen for daily use - dvds, apps, etc - i'll see if i can get hammer running on the widescreen and network it over to the other comp for testing....or something
4. some games have difficulty with widescreen
5. crts are more trustworthy at LANs, yes they are heavy shit, but you can drop it and it is still fine :D and i heard lcds running games constantly start to overheat considerably.

anyway, long story short, i want to know what happens with older games on widescreen. does it stretch, or have vertical black strips? is there a way to temporarily put the ratio to 4:3 to play older games?

can't the next compo start before the results are in?

i wouldnt mind a 2 week stagger of compos:

0 weeks - hl1 comp starts
2 weeks - source comp starts
4 weeks - hl1 comp ends
6 weeks - source comp ends
2 week break
8 weeks - revert to 0

that way people have plenty of time even to do both, with 2 weeks by itself and 2 weeks both compos, 2 weeks for results to be posted and start again...
that way we can always have 2 compos every 2 months...

as for tutorials...you just need more tutorial mods...

This nice little program is great for previewing maps without starting the game (hl1 or 2).
It even previews the lightmaps!
(for WON installations of hl1, use his BSPviewer from the same site, crafty is useable for WON installs, but is much more compatible with steam)

in WTF??? whats up with my HD space?? Post #193484
in a month you:
a) collect a lot of random little files surfing
b) download lots
c) make a lot of files yourself

1.5 GB is not much at all these days.
this is not a hacking problem.

my advice:
delete some random stuff that you dont need.
do a disk cleanup
reduce the size of the pagefile
zip long-term files
burn underused files to disk
get a new hard drive

also, a program called SpaceMonger that shows what ratio of files are where, in a nice graphical display.

not many people are going to look for sites they never visit for a compo they dont really care about without even a link to click.

its a good idea in general, but most of the posts reflect the fact that obviously nobody knows whats going on. so posting more examples that people can conveniently click to see straight away is perfectly reasonable.

20 seconds in paint making the text and reflecting it, 10 secs in photoshop fading it.

(which is why it fades to white and not transparent)

better viewed on a white background:

as long as you place hint/skip brushes i spose...although remember if its a multiplayer map the whole map is rendered at the same time.
but if singleplayer, you can use the hint brushes i'm pretty sure.
