It's just something I think about for everyone who plays WoWThat made me chuckle. It really did.
In my opinion, spending that much time and money into something that doesn't help anyone, makes him a waste of life. I could spend ten hours a day mapping, but granted, I'm doing something semi useful.
This is just another thing that reminds me I made the right decision on giving up MMO's while I still had a grasp of my sanity.
I'll play world at war, I don't expect too much out of it though.
I'm looking forward to Far cry 2, left 4 dead, and HL2 E3. (Is the release date still TBA?)

No one mentioned Half-life 2 Episode 3.
I'm going to assume that you think that choice should be obvious, and thats why you didn't list it.
If not, then shame on you!

Bottom line:
Goldsource = no mirrors.
you can only make an illusion to make that effect, but I'm sure you know about that. Copying the stuff behind glass. Of course that has its limitations, but its the best you can do.
I say again.
Goldsource = no mirrors, without some hefty code manipulation, which I don't know amnything about.
Also, the way you word your questions, it seems as if you don't own half-life. If you do have it, what are you asking us for? We don't know anything.
You should test it yourself, try r_mirroralpha in the game, Google it, whatever.
I'm pretty sure you could have found an answer to all of your questions already by testing for yourself, instead of waiting for us to give some educated guesses.

yes, get the map and go go go
Of course, if you keep talk of the prize itself to a minimum on the server, then if a random wins and doesn't know about it, i'll give it to the highest scoring player who actually knows about it.I like your style hunter. :>
So are non-twhlers allowed to join up? and if they are, are the able to win the prize too?
Just wondering.

Is that an insult? D:I found that really funny.
I do believe that translates to: "I'm too wasted to post a status update, but I'm still working on it."

I'll try it out after school.

Steam integration for the win.
I'm getting some errors when I try to start the mod. Something like couldn't load library .dll or something like that.
I have a pretty good idea of what the problem is though, so when I get home from school I'll play it and get a review to you.

But thought that would be a bit too harsh.Nah, if i get time at the end, I always put some sort of anti-cheat method into my maps. Although a determined wimp loser cheater will find a way.
Looks extra shittyCorrect Luke is correct.
A volumetric wave? I don't think I've ever seen that done nicely in any games. (unless someone can enlighten me)
I'll be excited to see the result.

Yes, having the delay before close 0, is definitely the problem, set it to -1 And keep use only, and toggle on.
The door will stay open when you use it, then you can use the open door again to close it, then you should be able to use it again to open it, once again.
Let me know how that helps you!

New jersey? that's got the be the closest server to me I've ever seen. Perhaps I'll try playing it, perhaps for a lower ping.
Although I'm not counting on it, since I get 80 Ping on a Chicago server, while I'm near Philadelphia :/

Major bump Striker, but since you've already done it, some updates on the status of this project would be nice!
Bottom line:

The only time i play on a console machine is when I'm over at a friends house, and i thoroughly hate every minute of it, I don't tell them that though.
I dont know, it sounds complicated
Its a fireball that needs to:
Respawn
follow a path
explode and damage the player
respawn again
repeat
Sounds to me like a coding endeavor, Especially for the part where it will hit the player and damage them.
Fortress files idea would work, but you might not be in the right area for it to look as if the fireball hit you, as that trigger would be there all the time.
although, thinking about Fortressfiles idea, You could, use a func train, and time the activation of the trigger_hurt so that it only works when the fireball is within a small window of oppurtunity to be hit, then couple the trigger hurt with an env explode, and env render to disappear it. But again, a limitation here is that the player has to be in a thin hallway, or a thin walkway, and the fireball moving horizontally across it, to acheive a realistic effect.
Ill tell ya what, if I get home from school today and your still having trouble, I'll make an example map with what I mean.

I had a game called delta force: black hawk down, and its editor was something similar to what your talking about, satchmo.
You would choose from 10 terrain maps, eeach with its own height and textures. Then you choose from a huge list of over 800 objects to populate your map. There was absolutley no "brush" or "texture" tools whatsoever.
Sounds to me like an inflatable map. Easy to make, and you have to be a retard to mess it up.

Interesting, I wonder what I did that made my ME hate me
System recovery is useless, and provides a great place for viruses to hang out.
Disable FTW!
Oh and Grim, was your ME machine a gaming machine? Because mine was, and it would crash so frequently in games that it would just mess up stuff gradually until it would have problems just booting. Then its reformat time. ME would be fine in an office machine i suppose

Reformat. What a horrible word. I remember windows ME, and how it required a reformat every year, lest it lose all stability.
I've had XP running for 8 years, and haven't reformatted once.
I think that skals reformating to fix his problem would be comparable to dropping an anvil on a fruit fly.
Theres most likely a much more surgical way to fix this problem, but i cant expect skals to find it out.

This made me laugh at its stupidity.
Its exactly like when some fool said all the computers in the world would shut down because they couldn't display "2000" in their bios. Heh noob

It will continue to have that life for a while I think.
Well, I think that barney bug was the only one I saw, unless Muzzleflash remembers any others.
I also liked some of the cool details, like when the security guard got squashed by the fire door, that was some superior animation on that.
I also got a good laugh out of the scientist in the cafeteria who died and did a faceplant into his tray full of food. :>

Well, usually you wait until an NPC finishes his script/sentence before E'ing him. But you didn'tWell, i guess now you know I'm not the smartest person to play with
Slips and falls into slime level restart*
stands next to exploding barrel and shoots it level restart*
enough said.
Argh, then thats my bad, as soon as he got up and started talking i pressed E and lead him to the wheelchair guy.
Wait, thats not my bad, thats the developers bad, they shouldve expected someone to press E on him

It was acting really buggy for me and Muzzleflash, although it might have had something to do with my suckish 300 ping.
One bug i know was not ping related, was we coudln't get the wheelchair guy to do anything when we brought the security guard back, no matter what we did.
So we eventually just grenaded the wheelchair guy and quit
As for gameplay, i didn't think it had anything innovative in the way of combat, but some areas were neat, like pushing the test cart (seen in blue shift on a camera) and moving through parts of the destroyed hazard course. I Also liked how high quality the wheelchair guy model, and the HEV/health charger models were. And then some of the prop models were cool, like the pool ladder. diving board and lifeguard stand.
Also for some insane reason, it was all fullbright for me, I still havent tracked down the reason as to why that would happen.

You seriously messed something up man.
Are you sure its frozen in the control panel? Let it sit for half an hour then come back to me and say its frozen, some programs especially huge space takers like steam/all of its installed apps, take a while to get the uninstaller started.

Sounds like you should back up your steamapps folder and reinstall steam.
If it still doesnt work, then i guess it is your PC.

Steam is being fail right now. I've got 5 hours remaining on my half-life download 
Ah, I'll just wait till after school tomorrow to play decay.

Its a Half-Life mod, therefor it needs Half-Life in order to be played.I kinda gathered that much Muzzleflash.
What I mean is, its asking me for my half life directory folder in steam.
Well, I installed half-life using an old retail CD, so it has its own file structure.
Program files/sierra/half-life/
What I need to know is, how can i get this mod working if i got half-life installed like that, and not in a steam directory.
I mean, i guess i could just try installing it into my halflife directory, it might work.
So.... If i dont have half life installed under steam, how exactly do i install this?
Quit steam. Delete the ClientRegistry.blob file in the steam directory. Then restart steam. If it still doesn't work, restart your computer, then steam.
If it still doesn't work, let me know

No way in hell is there a alternative universe where Skals and CStriker are useful human beings. It's simply impossible.I would love to make a certain "alternate universe" comment right about now, but I'll refrain from doing so, in light of the new news post.
Supposedly theres supposed to be enough alternate universes to have every possible variation.
So in theory, there IS an alternate universe where earth gets invaded by combine
There is an alternate universe where valve is the worst video game maker ever.
There is an alternate universe where the combine invades earth and valve becomes the planets militia, and destroys the combine planet in the 7 hour war.
See? Its headache inducing to think that theres a universe for EVERY possible variation of everything. :/
BTW, the various military agencies of the world are probably watching this thread and laughing their asses off.
"Lulz, they think theres aliens"
"lolnoobs"

Are you sure deathan? I don't think being far away in space means its another dimension.
Their spammy, Flamebaiting, and generally immature.
And I'm not talking about thread, but all your posts.
I mean, that stuff can be said in the shoutbox to an extent, but not in the journals and forums.

Actually, the shooting down of their space ship part might have already happened.Crap, we're screwed.
I'm actually not sure what to make of Roswell, if the military shot down the alien craft, well then they fail for that. It might have just crashed though.
I hate it when people always say, "oh dont expose kids to video games they'll grow up to love violence" and all that. As long as the kid is raised with good morals, they can tell whats a game, and whats not, and why its alright to do wrong things in games, but not ok to do wrong things in real life.
That's what my dad did, and he exposed me to Doom when I was 2, and i noticed i have a lot more morals than some people out there, so that's how I'm going to raise my kids (looking really far into future )
Bottom line: violence/language bans (video games, movies or otherwise) for kids are for parents who leave their kid with a babysitter for 18 hours a day, and come back home when hes asleep.
Of course there are exceptions, some parents are just overprotective, while some really dislike violence and language.

You misunderstand me Skals, flashing lights could be their technology, I think its entirely possible that an alien craft with flashing lights could fly over us, but what I'm saying is, there's so many fakes, that you just cant believe those stories. A bunch of idiots ruined it so that no one can make a serious testimony of a UFO sighting, just because idiots filled the history of UFO sightings with bullshit. I for one, don't believe any of the UFO stories, although i know they could be true.
If I see a UFO for myself, I might be open to suggestion, but to this day i haven't seen anything in the sky i didn't recognize.

i find it a bit of a piss poor performance if you can manage to hike your way along the universe, unseen enter the atmosphere, and stay undetected for radar, but still crash.Drunk alien pilots FTW!
I kind of agree with you spike, I think its plausible for alien craft to come to our planet to check it out, because they could possibly have better technology, but you cant believe any UFO sightings because attention-deprived idiots fake them, or they're military projects that are secret.
So the possibility that UFOS could come to check out our planet? Completely plausible.
Can we believe any of the stories of UFO sightings? Absolutely not.

I would be really surprised if we were the only life. The galaxy is so huge, at least some planets that support life, throw some microorganisms into the mix, give it a few million years and you got some decent life forms.
If any of the UFO sightings are indeed an alien craft, well then, OK. What do you expect us to do about it? Shoot it down? To possibly have no effect? Not very diplomatic, and not intelligent if these aliens had built a spacecraft superior to ours.
Meeting other life in the galaxy is inevitable, and it is just as much a chance for alliances, and trade, as meeting other people on earth is. Just some people have a fear of the unknown, and think that if there are aliens in the galaxy performing recon on our planet, that they must be hostile.

Well i definatley don't want to stick with goldsource mapping! I'm just using it because its a little easier to work with than source. but ill make the full transition once i finish my current goldsource projects.
Ima stick with XP though until theres something out there thats at least better than vista.
