The boss better be Bowser. Or Hitler in a giant robot suit.
By the tiling BMP background, I'd say 1996.
I... wondered exactly the same.
You can bring your own. I'm sure TSA agents won't mind.
Urby promised 2020.
Neither am I. But I figure we'd find something to do.
...also it's texas after all. Zeeba probably has lots of guns for us to shoot something. Just bring target printouts. And cans.

It would be a party of its own, really. A TWHL party. I imagine it would be enough by itself, what with us all meeting at last. I'm generally bad at recognising people so I would probably object to bringing non-TWHL people at least until the last few days and if it's only for one day 
If it weren't for that, I probably wouldn't mind.
If it weren't for that, I probably wouldn't mind.It's bauhaus standard practice.
If Inception is an acceptable reference, the longest flight in the world is Australia-Los Angeles at... 24 hours was it? And then you need another 2-3 hour flight to do Los Angeles-Houston.
You're in for some fun.

If you can call it sleeping. I lose my mind in 8 hour flights...
Hey, wasn't there a guy once that crossed the Atlantic swimming?

Aparture?
It's a bit optimistic of you to expect a number of flights from around the world to land at about the same time in Houston
But yeah, we have plenty of time to plan it.
I thought Rim was in Florida. If the blue line in that map is ~2700km, Florida is about 1200km away. That's not a stone throw away. That's a distance comparable to going from Portugal to Switzerland. That's three countries away

@CT: Shortest drive is 1698 miles = 2717 km and traverses a total of 11 states. Would you seriously consider sitting in a car for 24-28 hours with a bunch of foreign, murderous strangers?
Definitely a smiley pharaoh.
So are you suggesting a TWHL cow time in Eastern Europe?
I'd be all for it if I happened to spare a few thousand dollars for the flight. I don't think that will happen within 2 years though.
Question: Your dad owns land. Your mum's family owns land. Why exactly do you want to divide it? And why would it take long?
If I'm ever filthy rich I'll host a grand TWHL meetup and take care of everyone's flight and accomodation.

It's also the Pope! Look at that hat.
I don't doubt it's more flexible than what's normal in GS, but I imagine it grows exponentially with the number of textures you want to use. So it can be a lot of work.
I suppose that is the reason you're using it for The Core!
Hammer will also let an object be a part of 2 groups, but if you can prevent this in Sledge,it would be a good thingI object to this. I don't have a problem with that. Sometimes you want to hide/unhide particular groups of things and a group of brushes may belong in more than one such group for a particular purpose. I suppose you could have a third group to hold the things that belong to both the first groups, but I think that's up to the mapper to decide, not the tool.
Definitely. Although I still get the feeling Source is clunky and coarse and if I want something fine, I should be using something entirely different.
Looks like I never posted. I did check out the example map and since I just looked at it again more closely, I thought I'd come back here and say it's a clever workaround for this limitation. Thanks for figuring it out!
Now that I finished dissecting your example and understand how it works, I need to tinker with it to adjust it to my needs. I think it's perfect for what I need.

I SO want to see that.
Probably everyone here knows these. Except this guy here:

Or textures.
What an oddly specific hack.
Then we host in Antarctica for it to be fair for everyone.
if you guys are ok with an extra 50msI'm ok with 50 and even 100, but I get 280-300 anyway so it doesn't really make a difference to me
Could it be related to mipmaps? Perhaps after a certain size they're all just transparent. Although I don't think that would do much for performance.
In that case, no idea really. Better let someone more knowledged answer that.
I suck at marketing and I don't have a server anyway.
Might be related to hint brushes.
Stojke, making as much sense as always.
Is this two different maps, or just the same map with different entities toggled?
Me too.
I agree with Dim, TWHL needs more community events. I suggest a new tournament to start off the new year.

Amazing surreal photos, Archie. You really know how to make it happen.
And this... this...
I just can't...

Did you try 2-second shutter + mirror lockup?
Definitely. Remote shutter on a 2 second delay, with mirror lockup. Even without a remote shutter, the other two should improve everything a lot. And make sure to set manual focus on infinity so that the camera doesn't change it.
Noone can refuse this. We're also expecting some good looking neighbour having a shower or something
(yeah I know, most likely she won't be in the shower with the window open at this time of the year...)

We should have a New Year's Tournament, of course.
Great concept, but I find that continuously headshotting myself with a vehicle gets on my nerve fast.
So are you.
Also Striker. But weren't there more talking?
The one who sounds like me is me.Aw bugger, I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN!
Actually I did recognise Dimbark and you. But just you two, I think.
Hey, you shot me at least twice. That's about my total score for the tournament.
Does someone here know all the voices? I only know a couple, and some things may make more sense if I knew who was saying them.

Surely the next part will be crafted in such a way that it portrays me as a superior player.
I don't know, but it looks real nice.
Sounds about as boring as awp maps.
Looks like I missed half the fun.
...and Archie missed all of it, so I can't complain.
