if u wanna make your own texture get a good program like adobe photshop

now get a close up birds eye view of a grate u think will look good now fill in the spaces with bure blue 0 0 255 if its off by 1 unit it wont work now open up in wally and turn into texture and put into your wad with this prefix at start { which tells engine the texture is masked and all pure blue is see through

I did the dojo from killbill (house of blue leaves), but was not to skilled at the time. Everything was out of wack, it looked all right but shyte load of leeks. Then i stopped it half way through and then started working a new one "gorgeous gorge" which will be out soon once i can get last few bugs out and finish a little more detail and add lighting.

in no hldm with hl2 my source is reliable Post #65842
That's lame! Now there is no point to me buying hl2, I just wasted my money sure ill like the sp for what the first two weeks then when its done thats it. and cs is boring and wastes my time soi doubt i will buy hl2 now, oh well maybe some other company wont #$%^ up so much as valve has in the past year !!!!! ANd they
will think about everyone not just one faction of the gamers what are out there

big big dissapointment the only reason i map is for mp,what is the point in making a map that only your eyes will see .
it's supposed to be a bout the experience and seein peeps enjoy your map together withu.much more satisfaction is obtained from mp then just from making sp maps :x

in What do you want to do? Post #65640
The plus with writing, is there is 4-6billion peeps in the world nowadays. So even if just 1 percent read, that would mean you would have 4 milion peeps payin to read your book!!
In the world today an average of 1.5 billion peeps read,
there are just under 500million in northamerica; And close to 85-90% read.
Those are good odds! Anyone that has an imagination or is atleast some what intelligent, and wants to grow in life, loves to read so they don't just read 1 book. and besides there are all the talk shows now a days. So u should'nt have a problem gettin to those peeps.
My advice don't stick to one genre of writing, try to mix it up. That way you reach more peeps; thats what I would do atleast good luck

history
factual books
-personal learningstories
-self help
-fiction fantasy science fiction
-adventure
-horror
-mystery/suspense
-scientific books
-world books
-encyclopedia's (if u choose a different avenue in writing, they get paid big bucks to put those encyclo sets together)
and the list goes on.............. :cool:

Which, was the makings for a good story. But your right I'd say chances, this happening for real? Next to none! I'd have to be there to believe it. But seeing as being, that would'nt be the smartest place to put myself. I guess this one will be left in the unsolved mysteries storage locker forever.........
And what if, all they were smelling was the worst fluff ever? Poor schmucks(schmuck left over piece of forskin from circumcision ceremony)

the prototype, is loosly applied to the term "invisible". but it is all in relavence, to how the human eye sees. So yes its not like we always thought it might be, but still gets the same effect. Almost like the (Predator) I see somebody or somthing walkin down the street in one of those im pullin out my chain gun with automatic rocket launcher and infra red googles lol hahahahaha

in The Matrix Online Post #65303
I think this hate binge, about the sequals that came after the original is a little played out cliche!!! I'll admit the third one hit the pooper, but in my opinion the first was awesome and the second did so much more! even with the third installment of the matrix,it is still one of those trilogies, no matter what your gonna have to buy it! look at starwars look it did'nt win any oscars, but it did what it was supposed to.Which was draw the audiences into another franchise of fantasy. Cuz we humans feeble as we are, love a damn good story. And the matrix brought us that so buy the game if u like itit'll be somthing to remember

just one mans opinion

in mav patches way past 65ooo max Post #64609
let me get this straight. This is what i make out from the tutorials and answers in the site. Max patches if u use scale 1 there are twice as many patches as if u use scale 2??
u see my map is like close to 10000 patches and now it crashes. Whats the dilio and hopefully it will get better when i compile with vis(have not done that )

and no im not using a damn sky box!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! did i mention this is officially the first level ive made with intentions to release to play on . And i have put an extreme amount of work into making some of textures and level there is lots of detail and is a beautiful machine in other words DO NOT want to scrap this hopefully i can rescale the cliffs to close this number off?there are alot of cliffs in my gorge hopefuly that will lower it enough. Do hint brushes help patches as it does not treally say in the tutorials thanx again u kick ass wise mappers from the heavens above. I only push to excel to suceed, in hope of raising amongst the heavens with u as a n expert mapper!!!! now wise ones please converse amongst yourselves and condemn me with an answer
with each question answered i become stronger thanx copperito :P

in question on a certain trigger problem Post #64533
k I have a room with a func illusionary entrance. when u get into room there is a button, which i want to trigger for an out side door to a teleport. But when I hit that button i want bars to slide down over func illusionary entrance, so as u have to find different way out of romm. but I want that button to also trigger a roof, thats starts to drop down with spikes onit. Which will killu if u dont find the way out of room in time. Can it be done or is that two many things happening at one time?
yors truly copper

If your gonna make somthing like this have a plane already in the top of the building with terrorists starting there . then have cts starting in obby trying to get to top and they can save hostages on the way up.
And theterrorists can ambush peeps as cts are trying to complete there mission.have a certain time limit before building collapses and at the bottom of building have like a memorial where it gives its respects to the victims of 9/11. ;)

If your gonna do somthing like that. Have the plane already crashed into building, and ct start at bottom and terrorists start in the plane at the top. Then there will be more to the level and then cts can save hostages in building . While going up, and terroists can setup points to ambush cts while their climbing. Now that would be a neat level and dedicate it to 9/ll and have a cemitath at the bottom saying somthing like a memorial with areeth and if u push a button on the cemitath it will sing amazing grace what do u guys think ;)

in apologies newbie! max patch error Post #63975
its being creative and trying to make a small space look big

Say u have a cliff, try to have that go up to the height where the player at any point will not go past (height wise). Make the sky from that point the roof, that way at certain points u dont need sides to be sky! now u have incorporated the terrain into the out doors. Now u can make
a couple cracks in the cliff, put a couple brushes directly on other side of wall seeling the cracks. Make them sky brushes so it gives a neat effect, u can even do this in corridors if u like. This of course is just idea to get u started. Sky doesnt have to be outside map it can be part of it, no matter where u put sky it will still look like sky if that makes sense. SAo it doesnt have to be an outlying source but a part of terrian at parts. (Note it also works as clip) so u dont have to put clip brush infront if u dont want peeps to fall or walk past that point.(hint hint)
Enjoy taking this to the next level theres alot u can do with it so have fun
cheers [DDHLP]copper
