I cannot select one game and definitely say it's the best I ever played.

I enjoyed a lot all those Amiga and arcadre games it was possible to enjoy with a friend (Eye of the Beholder, Hired Guns, RodLand, SWIV, Dragonninja, Z-out, P47, Street Fighter, Double Dragon ...), regarding now our cold, egoistic and always crashing and out-of-date, noisy and ugly PCs :| ...

CSS is "brilliant" ???

CSS = weird maps done by guys who seemingly never played CS (removed strategic covers, added stupid barels that are rolling and blocking paths, or hampering your moves, just to show they bought Havok),
CSS = amazing hitboxes collisions, like you miss your target and hit the wall 1 meter to the right, and the guy is dying because of an headshot,
CSS = just 1 model/skin for each team, and just 8-10 "official" maps,
CSS = at least +10 ping for every servers,
CSS = steam.

how many multiplayer games did you played ? :roll:

in my opinion, HL2 = "just" HL1 + larger textures with lower scales + massive use of models + some optimisation + Havok + ... steam

I don't like both, as I cannot complete my map on both engines : ...

but ok the campaigns are great.

in still one good mapper here ? Post #86995
that's the point of my topic :

I am not only looking for a guy to complete the job : I especially need somebody with a real experience in mapping to not repeat what was about to kill the project, at least a "lead mapper". I fear to spent some two more weeks to make new textures, with new size etc, two others to map, then encounter again that uberfrustating problem : "allocbloc:full", Mr "Idontlikeyourprojectnowpissoffanddie" ...

I will probably work on this project two other monthes, the time to complete the modeling, get a mapper, test him, check what he is doing is related with the project topic, advertise the map, make a webpage, organise beta tests with some clans, modify the map, test again, manage a live final betatest in a LAN tournament etc. I really would like these two monthes are less tiring than the two previous ones, because if they finally are, I am not sure to be able to do the whole job with my current team :| ...

k, since our major trouble in our project,
http://twhl.co.za/forums.php?pgt=1&action=viewthread&id=6487&pg=1
(allocbloc:full)

all the mapping of the map has to be redone, because after long tests we finally concluded that the scales I set on most textures (under 0.5 most of the time) simply exceeded the HL software memory, and the map project cannot be completed without rescale every textures in the map (I am actually completing the map with a general texture setting of scale 1.0/1.0, shift 0/0 and rotation 0 : it is insanely weird looking :nuts: )

as I am already busy with some other parts of the project (management/recruitment, building/modeling, tests and web design soon ...), I need an experienced mapper to assist us, I mean a guy that the main job will be to ... map the map : assign nice textures, give every room a unique style, matching with the project topic, ask every authors for their agreement to use their textures (since mine cannot be used because of a too high size : ) and so on : make that pack of boxes an awesome battleship ...

the project is a CS 1.6 map, that we, a team of 3 guys, are already on for five monthes. the job is estimated to two weeks of work, and the map might be completed in two monthes.

our references for the atmosphere we are aiming for the map :
_the derelict aircraft carrier in Far Cry,
_the submarine in the movie "the hunt for Red October",
_the cruiser in that movie with Steven Seagall,

the current map webpage :
http://www.ideaseed.net/maps/CS16/screenshots.html

it has not been updated for two monthes, since the first boring "allocbloc:full" : the map is about to be completed from a building point of view, but it looks actually weird without mapping :| ...

you can change the maximal viewable distance with editing the setting in map properties, or with a special entity (map_environment I think, or something like that), it could fix your problem.
