Sr. Kasperg... I'll try and be patient for your compo... but its sooo haarrdd....
I was going to.. in the future... have the dude captured by combine... then while he is in the citadel... he is thrown into one of those Zappy things by accident.. and becomes a superhero.. The Combine find his toasted body and emplace it into one of the superCombine dudes... Then, he would run around and fight crime to end the rebellion...
But hey, I got bored

Heres my Question...
Should I end this here, like this, or continue the story?
If I stopped now, the title wouldn't really make sense... but thats okay...
There is a button to edit your post BTW...
Um...
If I think I know what you're asking...
You have to unzip the downloaded map into the correct folder. Half-Life will read a .BSP file. Just take the .BSP out of the zipped file (By extracting using a program such as WinZip), and type what you need to in Consol...
For more obvious help, please click the nice link that says
"Where to Start"
It is located on the left of your screen... under Site Stuff.
[EDIT] Damn! you beat me SariBous!

Kind of How I type sometimes...
I don't know, it just seems like I Capitalize the more important Words...
I'm going to go through and make them all 1 by 1, then go back with what I've learned and fix them all up to look nice...

I'm taking a break from mapping til' the Next HL1 compotition...
I've been doing some nice interior work to my space ship thing...
I'm probably going to just shorten it, leave it without a storyline, and post it as a map-pack...

Hmm...
Every time I convert to .jpg, it does that to the text, and to my pictures...
The origional one... before converting... looks much better.
Any hints on how to put it in a format thats easy to upload, but keep its look?

How do you Pose a Dude with a weapon?
I mean... I don't just want an NPC... I want a ragdoll holding a gun or a stunstick... I precieve that this is fairly obvious, but I can't figure it out...
Thanks...

Just that the Second Breen Photo, and the first Civilian Photo look streched... Not sure why no one else can see that...
Maybe you took the picture at an odd camera angle...
[EDIT]
Also, look at the second Breen Photo...
Whats he grabbing?

You stretched the images, makes it kind of look wierd.
Try and make a more origional story or setting.

Hah, this is pretty funny aswell as Loffes! 
I agree... Stop censoring words... It just makes the comic look more Childish really... Less entertaining.

heh,
Remember, this is my first time using Gary's Mod
I'm almost done with the second one...
I turned up the graphics all the way when taking the pictures, and changed the font. I also make the pictures a little larger and more interesting...
Storyline continues...

hah, I like it...
um... so you take other's opinions and restate them into comic form? Kind of a long way to go when you don't even care about the bias
Okay,
I'm going to make Volume 2... I'll see if I can make it look better...
I was pretty much doing it for the storyline though... Its suppose to be dark and dreary, as is the mood.

It looks fine to me.
oh, and its not suppose to be funny...
You really can't follow that? The dude's a normal truck driver dude, is stuck out on the highway... Sees a vehicle crash into a power line, crawls up the cliff to see, where he finds a half-Dead combine....
Is it really that bad?
The last picture is the only one that looks pixilated to me, and thats because I took it while I was in the distance... I think I cropped a little too much on that one...

I trust Dell...
Never had a problem with them.
So far so good, someone hasn't said "Dude, your getting a Dell!"

How should I give credit to you if I use this?
I have a Dell.
Get a Desktop, though most Dell computers, with upgrades, can play Lost Cost.
Sadly, mine can't.

I have a question related to this...
When I make my own Prefab, is there a way I can take it apart?
I mean, If I make two brushes and turn them into 1 prefab, when I create the prefab, is there a way I can take one brush off of the other, or are they indefinatly attached?

There aren't enough guidlines there.
Someone could just retexture one of their old maps aswell...
The entries would vary too much to judge properly...

There are 2 page 1s and 1 page 3 and 4.

Looks nice, but it seems like its going in circles.

Start with HL1 maps, and build up your mapping skills.
Follow closely the tutorials on this site before attempting anything rash. Start realisticly, and ask questions to us as you go along.

Don't mind Saco,
or the American Bashing. Not very fun to be critisized all day for my nationality. I only really post here occasionally now.
Prefabs eh?
Well, Most people on this site don't really support Prefabs. I believe they are a great way to save time, and add consistancy to your map, but its great to have a little flair of another mapper's stuff.
I consider it like code... No-one writes their code entirly, or even mostly. Code is taken from what other people have put in place as a base code. I do not personally include prefabs in my work, although sometimes I use some of the BM stuff. No point in re-creating a soda machine when theres one right there in front of you.
It depends upon how much do you want your map to be custom. Really, It seems repetitive to have HL textures in your map, although I use them all the time. I really don't have the time nor enisative to make my own textures, and it really doesn't matter much to be in the first place.
Excuse my post on Catain P,
Just that he says this A LOT, and I happen to differ in opinion.
