Yeah, Im about to try the Valve style right now

And I also use GIMP. Very nice powerfull program as good as PhotoShop and it is "open-source" (A company that is gonna one day make all software manufactorers go out of bussines, since their stuff is free and very reliable [They make Linux] ) and you dload it at www.gimp.org for free of course, and the latest version is only 13mb's !

Oh, yeah, TerraGen. Damb that was a hectic programe

Yes, what you guys all said defertly are true. I think the most important thing that made their maps look like they are was : Realism. They made it all look very life-like, and as though it wasnt designed as a SP level, but for the sole purpose of say, A science facility, if you know what I mean. Most SP maps here look as though like obstacle courses designed only for 1 person, as opposed to a fully operating science facility, or whatever. Also HL1's maps were very spacious, and also interesting. Not just tunnels > Rooms > Tunnels > Rooms. Damb, after saying that I am bleeding to do some more HL mapping

@ Zombie: Thats just demented!

IMO Alyx is a lot better looking

I have always wondered how the mappers of HL1 made it look like...HL1. I have tried millions of other maps, and none of them looked like their maps. I have tried, and failed. This also applies to their HLDM maps like crossfire, subtransit etc. How? Their maps dont even look that detailed

Yeah, If you take a quick glance you can tell that its not real. but still, extremely good graffix!

My favriote

Woah! I just found this image of a re-skinned high resolution Alyx model. Now she looks hot

Obviously he isnt using mozilla firefox

I have fixed all the errors and finished the map! Download NOW!
Its a pretty good map

Looks totaly sw33t! Ah, I see you stole some of the textures from counter-strike Ahem!

I can imagine :

Noddy? Yep, very homosexual, in fact, I once read they where going to ban Noddy because Noddy and sum1 where "gay"

Proberly. What about Alien vs Predator? I havent seen it yet...

Thats cool I did my avatar in gimp, and made the body look blury using
a filter called "motion blur"

Yes. The effects where very cheap, the acting was tinny and everything was overdone. Hmm, they really should make a movie based on Half-Life

I just wanted to map for sumthing (Got bored of Warcraft 3) and found TWHL. From there I got hammer, read the tutorials, and ruined my life with mapping

Hmm, I always though the Resident Evil movie was very simialr to HL. You know, underground science facility, zombies take over, etc etc

Yes, those where nice. I did'nt really like Xen.

I can map one But I will need credit in your mod (in the credits of course)

Photoshop is very expesive (Inmy country at least) so I use GIMP. Its a really good piece of open-source software.

The monster as in Gorden Freemen :

Creepy hey Anyway, I know which brushes it where. My bad. I think I can fix it anyway.

"On rail" was long and tedious

Yes, I didnt really like that chapter also. I thought It was a bit boring, confusing and uninteresting. I liked HL1 in interesting parts like the labs, office complex, the silo and Surface Tension.

THe last time I had a serius upgrade (New Hardrive, Case, Processor, RAM, GRaffix Card) was about 10 years ago

I compiled my map and this is what I got

On my brothers lappy, when I lan against him, on heavy going games like BF Vietnam and things his often overheats and crashes. btw he upgraded his RAM a week ago

@ M0p: To be honest, Ive never played it before Just heard rumours

I coulnt get past level 4 without a little "help"

Level 21

The riddles are sort of depressing, dont you think

You can upgrade lappy's. Lappy's are nice for lanning too

BF 1942, BF2, HL2, Cstrike etc

Now on level 11

On level 9. But im going to stop for now

Yes! Got it!

I have tried

Username: Penis
Password: Vagina

And vica versa

I tried googling. No help. Also, yes, I have clicked the condom. Asks for Password and Username. Cant figure it

Ive tried everything for level 4! I need a decent hint!

CS would be nice if it had proper SP. But what about CZ?

Level 4 doesnt make sense

Ah! Got it!

Counter Strike right at the bottome? Cstrike is a good game

Damb, got stuck on level 3! Cant figure out what "dont be so negetive!" means and the blocks

1. Opposing force
2. Half-life
3. Half-life 2
4. Blue shift

My list would would be the same! Also, I thought Doom3 was the biggest load of shit to have ever hit the gaming world I think the funniest part in HL2 is at the begining with the pet headcrab, that jumps on barneys head, then jumps off, knocking everything over, and finaly leaps into the vent. Then,when about to teleport, guess who would be the one to mess it up! And I like what barney says "Look! Its your friend the head humper!"

i never upgrade my computer, if i need a better one then i buy a new one from a car boot sale

Right!

Why the hell does Onslaught want to rape me! Is this because Im new

Shut up will you!
