true. But if I didn't shout at all until I had been here 400days, that would be .75 posts per day. But if you want to be pwned, thats ok.
well, i've been here 55 days, about 300 shouts, you have almost 1000 shouts, so you pwn me! But I can be pretty vocal when I have a mind to!

Sp00L, you cheater, you've only been here 1 day!
How bad was your worst computer? Preferably one that could actually run hl1.
processor: 233mhz p1
memory: 80mb
video: 2mb s3 virge, unsupported
hd: 10gb

shouts per day? 5.4! I pwn youall!!! w00t! 
in opengl, it does ripple!
that's why software is slow. Use opengl. or software mode will pwn you.
lol. I've got some very nice tower speakers like that, but my dad was told to "make them go away", so he did.
if software runs slow,then you have a crappy computer. With software mode, allof the graphics processing is done by the cpu. (duh) as well as game logic, so if you have a fast comp, then it should actually be pretty fast!
@m0p: are they crt's? probably, otherwise you wouldn't bother to mention the refresh rate. That's nice!
I only ever want to have one monitor, because more than one takes up too much space. If I could get one that supported 2048x1536 native, i'd be happy. (lcd only!!!)
is that a land mine in your avatar? if so:

3072x768 resolutionHow many monitors is that?
I, personally, like to use my laptop display(1280x800) and my crt(1600x1200) at the same time, gives me uber room for photo editing.
4 months? that's longer than me, I think!
Sp00L, don't feeel bad about not being able to use software, you're not missing anything!
I think mine might have a higher refresh rate than 60, even at 1600x1200, but I haven't been able to get information about it yet (damn dialup!)
And software isn't half bad when that is all that is available to you.

What about me?Sp00L: New member, probably not new to hl or hl mapping, nothing else known yet.
Status: nice (so far)
w00t! I just got a monitor big enough to do that, and hl really doesn't look much better at that resolution, but hl2 sure does.
19 inches of pure and violent half-life.
Now on the topic, like elon said, software is buggy, and therefore doesn't deserve to be used.

well, it's a 1 year technical certificate, and I really don't plan to go into web design as a profession. Maybe as a side job. And BrattyLord, I've only been on TWHL for 55 days! give me a break.
Who thinks it's time for a thread on jobs? or has there already been one?

i only get paid $7.10You get $7.10 doing what you are interested in, and I get $6.50 cleaning the kitchen at a nursing home. I'd rather be building computers, or networks, or desiging web pages, or something. (After I finish my college classes this year, though, i'll be able to do web design as a business!)
Consider yourself lucky, especially at this time in your life! Most teenagers do not get the chance do do a job that they kinda like.
Mr.Frag that will need a lot of work with func_wall_toggles and it wont be perfect.I don't think you get what i'm saying. I'll make an example map, and show you what I mean. But if you want to do it with spirit, and if you could, why not? It sounds like the sort of mod that everyone should have, anyway.
would work! Depends on the context, though. if the point was to try to jump onto a moving ladder, then that wouldn't work. If you needed to jump onto a moving ladder, you have a func_train with a ladder texture brush and 2 clip brushes, and a wide invisible ladder. If you try to jump onto the ladder and hit the clip brushes, it won't work, but if you make it between them, you'll hit the func_ladder, and be pushed back and forth by the 2 clip brushes.
Note that this is not tested, and therefore not guaranteed by me. If you don't understand it, pm me and i'll post an example map.

software mode, I believe, was only included in half-life as a "last resort" for those people whose computers sucked so much that they didn't have a compatible video card,. (like my first half-lifing computer. I beat the game on that computer with cheats!)
btw, I can't do voice acting, unless you're absolutely desparate.
I've been trying to make lab-related type stuff, what sort of things do you need? Do you want stuff that's just pretty to look at, stuff that the player can use, or things that can actually hurt the player?

run it @ 1024x768It looks better in 1600x1200, but runs like crap.

I almost wish that there was someone here at twhl that I liked to piss off (well, there's jimmi, but I think that everyone did a pretty good job of that) But there isn't.
BrattyLord: someone that I have never heard of but has been here 657 days.
Status: nice (I think)
Luke: Another twhl'er that I don't really know, but had a really unique avatar (until beeblebrox showed up) so he deserves mention.
Status: nice
J3r3my: 13 yr old who lives to piss off zl
status: nice (except, obviously, to zl)

Now to get back on track....
Yes, my desktop's a bit cluttered, but I've got a 19" monitor that can do 1600x1200 native! w00t! If you have a 56k modem, don't click on the link!
The picture is one I took in florida and edited with The GIMP
W00T! 
well said, lefty!
I used software when I had a 233mhz p1 with 2mb unsupported video card!
thanks fragmiesteryour welcome, ansith! I can't believe that one of my threads is actually popular!
no thx. Now go dl ant's bridge map, run it in software mode, and then tell me it's better than opengl!
Cause it looks better!what're you smoking? Use openGL, run it @ 1024x768, you'll thank yourself. If your computer suck too much and you can't, get a new (old) computer!
@madcow: glad you think i'm a good mapper! Sometimes i'm not so sure of it myself...
@elon: I was bored! I'm sorry I picked on your spelling, I know how hard it is to learn a foreign language, and I think you're one of the more helpful people on twhl.
And 7th, you're a great moderator and coder! TWHL is awesome.

I'm 15 and for my country I'm a quite good speller.(see no mistakes) Doom is a great game but I wouldn't map for it. And I do over use smilies!Let me fix that:

ravenholm! cool!
me? That wasn't photoshop, that was hlmv. You want photoshop, check out the photoshop thread. I posted 1 pic.
And I am 17!

I got the wrong thread. Ignore this post entirely.
same person, different "personality" (but not really) If you don't understand what I mean, that's ok because my brain is fucked up and i'm tired, and concentrating on my website. Just ignore this post. 
>/me
>/meI notice a lot of dm maps being labeled as hl sp maps.
It's only jimmi that I dislike. Onslaught was fine! Onslaught wasn't as bad as jimmi.
correction: 17, and I do like the crowbar. Simple, yet effective. (shotgun and crossbow are my real favorites, though.)
I think madcow is a patient in a mental ward
yes, true. I still like better, though.
better, though. 
useful when talking about microsoft/or their products/or valve when hl2 doensn'twork@ansith:
wont that create a bit of lag killer??was that targeted at me, and what does it mean?
I think ur some 20 year old non paying attention half-life player average in school? - Frag loli'm 17, 18 in 2 months.
I think that Fragmeister is ~13 - 16, he doesn't play HL too much, he's interested in mapping, but he didn't finish any maps yet.I've finished maps! Just a few, though, and no good ones. I really don't have the time right now to put into good maps (school.)
I think this thread is just going to turn into a flamefest with lots of 1337 kids calling each other gay a lot.only if jimmi was here. Which he is probably not.
I've always wondered what people online imagine me to be like, and I wonder what other people are like. Here's some of my impressions of twhl people
jimmi/onslaught/mr.plod... - dumb@$$ 13-or-so year old, really bored
Dorian27 - college graduate computer geek (in a good way
)
Atom, ant, 7th - professional web page designer/coder
Tosse - bored swedish dude
Ansith - bored australian dude
zl - kid who likes to map 4 hl and generally contribute to the site
What do you think of me (and other people?)

700mb of bandwidth? that's a little low, I've seen plans for 1gb of bandwidth/1gb space for +-$14/month!
Gimps seamless thing aint crap!Yes it is. But the one in psp 8 kicks ass! I just used it today, does a perfect job, unlike the gimp one, that flips parts of the image and does some trasparency shit. But the rest of the gimp pwns psp!
