in Null texture insanity! Post #150006
Actually, "Null" was my default texture in Hammer in my last HL editing days: I?d always do all the architecture and geometry with null textures and then just walk around in the 3d view window texturing all visible stuff. Then play, note down any mistakes in a piece of paper and get to Hammer again.

Toose, to have the "Null", "Hint" or "Skip" textures, get the ZHLT pack. These are the tools designed for HL when it comes to compiling (Hammer comes with Quake?s ones, I think) and the pack includes a ZHLT.WAD file with these textures.

Did you know that WAD stood for "Where?s all the data?" in good old Doom days?.

in Really SLOW Compile Post #120201
Try also to look for light issues... If leaks shown, you would tell us, but maybe you?re putting some complex light system there or whatever. Try to compile another map you know it?s rendering time and compare it to see if it?s bigger. If remains the same, must be a problem with your map.

Am I a classic :P?. My join date is 20th September 2003, though I was around before, just asking questions and taking advantage of everything this site has to offer... But somewhat you feel like you have to give something in return, so I registered and tried to help as much as I could.

The old days were inmensely gratifying, since there was a lot of people who were new to these and we would help each other and stab ourselves in the back :P.

Anyhow, I?m here, not exacly active since I?m mapping for good old Doom2, but still available asking questions people forward me to my mail and with hopes to come back to regular HL or even learning this Spirit thing... You know, I have unfinished business with HL :).

Hmmm... I can?t teel since I lost their track. Not that I?m interested in following, but...
Though I was born in Andaluc?a, half of my family is from the middle of Spain and some roots seem to go to Germany... But, anyhow, when I said "My ancestors" I didn?t want to mean my direct ones, but you know, the people who inhabited this soil before. Still, this is an old topic, you may meet people whose surname is "Pizarro" and they actually have nothing to do with this guy. Bloodlines is something fun, one of my teachers was a niece of a great writer XD!.

Sniff... Don?t remind me of our Invincible Armada now... It makes me sooo sad...
Serious now, it?s quite (and I mean, QUITE) sad what spanish people did in the past. Is not good to kill, boot and pillage everything around just because you think you actually found it. Those were other times, other minds and other people, but the memory of all genocides lives on. I can only hope a better world for the future, without the atrocities that were done in the past by many, among them, my ancestors.
And now a little translation of this:

"Spanish conquerers thought the owned the world".

"Los conquistadores espa?oles pensaron que el mundo era suyo".

Ahhh... South-American spanish :). Believe it or not but it?s quite different from the spanish we speak in Spain (:nuts: arghhh XD!!!). For example, zingo could be what you said, as well as chinga, but in Spain it has no meaning. You would have to use another words like... Errr... Better keep my mouth shout in this one XD!.

You hit it right Pepper... I think that music and playing an instrument is about to feel good and transmit things when you play... Certainly that speed is fun but, trust me, it?s only as hard to get as it is to learn to speak or type fast. The one and only really important thing is what to say and how (that?s why Hendrix will always reign supreme :P)... I hope this kid knows about that since he obviously has a talent with technique that should not be wasted.

LOL XDD!!!!.

Yes, descomunal is huge but there are many words revolving around bug sized things... Gigante (giant), gigantesco (gigantic), enorme (enormous), descomunal (literally "Non common"), colosal (from colossus), grande (big)...
As well as we have for small things like peque?o (small), enano (hmmm... dwarvish XD), minusculo (the most small), miscrosc?pico (you know, microsc?pical)...
Of course there are lots of phrases with no sense that refers to size like "Es un nada" (literally, it?s a nothing) that could mean something is really small.

You can always count on me logging to speak about languages :).

Zombie and Saribous, no, I?m not going to name sexual organs so you can play with these words XD!.

Fast Food is just what it?s name means. Food to eat when you?re in a hurry. Eating too much fast food is as bad as living in a constant stress so you can guess how bad it is to do both things...

What did 7th mean???.
Hey, Zombie has improved his skills :), maybe it?s the texture pack he?s using but his project looks a whole lot better than the first things he did.

Allegro in Italian, is, in fact, the direct translation for "Alegre", meaning "Happy". So, when you say "Me alegro" you really mean "I?m getting happier" or something like that ;).

Bigger is better, everywhere :P.

Let?s seeee... Add more music to my personal list and let?s go slow:

"The frogs are the tools of satan" for Saribo(ri)us
"Las ranas son los instrumentos de Sat?n". Tool is "instrumento", "herramienta", something to be used by someone and, more specifically, things that help you repairing stuff :P.

7th, good, nice that you understand so "Me alegro" ;). "Lo" is... something complex, when you say "Now I understand" you understand something, being that something the direct object, the thing that recieves the action ("Understand" in this case). Well, "Lo" plays the role of the direct object substituting whatever you understand. For example:
"?Entiendes esto?" "Si, lo entiendo" -> "Lo" plays like "Esto". Once you get used to it is easy. By the way, "Lo" is for male and "La" for female so... Whenever you see "Lo" or "La" it?s taking the place of something that appeared before.
For a little fun, try to translate this:
"Zombieloffe ha mejorado haciendo mapas!!!".

This thread is... evolving LOL!!!.

Comprend?... The stress is damn right (not all people get it) but it should be "Comprend?" as you?re stating that you understood. Comprend? has no meaning... Well, if you?re andalusian like me you could even say "Comprend?" as a deformation to "Comprendes" but "Comprend?" is the word.
Anyhow, "Comprend?" is not used that much since it tends to sound mighty posh or even robotical :P. You could use "Ahora lo comprendo" (Now I understand) or "Ya me he enterado" (I get the hang of it).
Ask me what you want to know about spanish :P.

Spanish is always so fun!. Now here comes lesson one :P. "La m?sica rock es lo mejor del globo" :D.
Lament, that?s so great!, I mean, up to 300 bucks... Crazy!. Here, as always, is getting harder and harder. Strict noise politics, concert halls being closed here and there... It?s such a shame since there is some sort of local activity going on. You know, bands meet, rehearsal together, have a few drinks and such but it?s actually quite hard to play live :(.
Hey DieH@ard!!!. I didn?t remember your names and always called you "The cool accordion guy" :P. I didn?t listen to that album since their second one was a bit of a dissapoinment for me. I mean, Legendary Tales was a great album, almost legendary (you can feel Sascha Paeth and Miro?s touch in it ;)) but the second one lacked the crazy soloing and fast double bass drum stuff. I found such a satisfaction, however, in the Italian Power-Metal band Labyrinth. It?s nice stuff although the production makes it sound like crap :P.
7th, you always talk about people I don?t know LOL!!!. I guess sometime this year may be time to open my mind a little bit :P. And if I knew Zombie liked Dream Theater maybe I hadn?t flamed he that much :P. Just kidding, guy :).
And talking about Dream Theater... Best Progressive Metal album ever: "Images and words" :).
Well, gotta go now. See ya next time I pop around!. Just remember, this thread will NEVER die!!!!!.
