Yeah, HL2 mapping is just the same as CS!
I would say, CS is a bit harder be cause it has to be a tactical battle field..
So, you would fit in good in our mod be cause this is swat, and CS > CT is swat, just a bit un realistic!
So, welcome to the team,, do you have an MODDB account?

Me and sm0k3y had a long discussion about the new name and the background base line.
The name S.W.A.T. Echo 12 doesn't make sense, as me and pepper agreed to.
So me and sk0k3y had a little chat about this, and the name Blue thunder came up.
This name fits, be cause this isn't really SWAT, this is an international special force, that is trying to stop a league that has marked several spots around the world.
An other question came up, who is the big guy, taking care of this team?
How about the UN?
This is a bit in the future, I would say, 2008 maby?
So no one knows what will happen in the future so that suggestion is POSSEBLE wich is al that matters.
Ok, so this big guy (help me make up a name) collects 5 of the very best UN soldiers and makes a team, the blue thunder.
(THIS IS STILL THE SAME GAME, THE STORY ISN'T CHANGED AT ALL! JUST THE NAME AND THE BASE OF THE STORY)
So, who votes for?
I vote for this idea, but let the people and the crew talk!

I second the motion :D. Erm don't have a MODDB account. Maybe we should just call the game HL2:sauce, remake all the levels for HL2, but make them saucier and don't forget cow, we need to put plenty of coke cans in this one, cause i think it will cost us alot to make! Possibly even put some bigmacs in it too, cause we could do with some extra sponsors. That reminds me, I'm working on some Nike skins for all the boots that the SWAT men and zombies are gonna wear...
P.S. Made some concept art for the zombies, now i know this one has a gun in his hand, but do you think perhaps abit too much makeup on the lips??

Slasher_101: Make it for HL2. 
Sk0k3y: We don't,, got any zombies in our mod, just SWAT vs Terrorists and other dumbasses.
I think you got the whole idea wrong.
Remember what we said, it will be a bit like RainbowSIX.
Edit:
Sm0key again: We don't need to pay anything, it is free to make a mod so, no sponsores needed.
Edit #2:
Slasher_101 again: Oh, you think we could grab that model and its data?
Quite posseble..
But, you don't have to worry about what to fill the shelfs with, we should make some models for that later.

Hey holly, do you animate models?`
Daubster: Not yet, we need to figgure out a special sign.
All of these cases in our mod is connected, it is all by the same terrorist leugue.
So we need to make them a special sign that they have on their arms for example, maby on the back.

Hey guys,
That last post of mine was a joke of course (out of frustration) and yes I do know the basic story of the SWAT based mod. Although I would be interested in working on a zombie based mod one day, have you seen the 'no more room in hell' highlights? Amazing, like so many others out there (including black mesa source, by rabid from here). I believe there is roughly 2000 mods in the works as of now. Which I find kind of frustrating seeing as we seem to be doing nothing and can't get together to brainstorm. I know some good work has been done, such as pepper's excellent models, slasher's map and daubster's work too. And of course Cow's concept of the game because without him and his work, we wouldn't be here. I believe this can be a very good mod, but I need something to do! I have all the free time in the world right now (where is everyone else??) and want to start ASAP on something even if it's just motivating the team or giving sugestions. I'm going to start trying to learn how to make a mod, model and improve on map making & texture skills so I can be a real asset to the team.
So please, leaders of the group (or anyone), tell me to start on something or tell me to shove off! lol, cause either way I'm going to make an awesome mod one day, & if I do get fired for saying all this I would still give full credits to everyone in this thread for helping inspire me. Thanks...

On msn? I often check but rarely see him on, I guess he's busy with other things? I did speak to him on msn the other day, was quite interesting as we talked about the mod for a while until he had to go. But I wish I could talk to everyone, all together for a lengthier period. So we could sort out the fundamental scenario and decide on everything as a team. Although of course I understand the leaders will have final decisions...
Edit: Can even make forum while I'm waiting, so we can start giving some real solid input, have different categories for different tasks, which would be more private from here, cause what is to stop someone else making SWAT using our ideas, & the way things are going they could probably finish it before we have even decided on the name by this rate lol jk

Argh! Long forum posts. This will take me some time to read and, mainly understand.
After reading and understanding the first part of sm0k3ey's first post:
Why don't you make a training map?
You know how to use triggers, and func_buttons, maby some train tracks to make shooting ranges, right?
No concept needed for a training map, just, make a indoor training center, after doing something (trigger or func_button) you move on to the next section.
Need textures? Ask daubster and he'll make some and I'll compile it for you.

Slasher_101: Do you think al the concept of t-tab is enough to make the map? Be cause, well, the rest it just, city, just, make it looks like you're some where (not in the middle of a high populated place like, outside a casino, but, more like a dead street with a store and next to the stote there is a layer, and on the other side of the street, there is a computer store, therefor, they have bars over the windows (and it is not open be cause it is night and the time is between 1 or 3 on the night.)

I guess he means Yahoo Instant Messenger (YIM) but I don't know why he thinks it's so bad. Has the clearest sound for send and recieve voice communication out of any IM (Instant Messenger) I know of, without the lag you get in others. You get 1GB of free email space plus hosting space for websites, chat room access, private chat rooms, or even conferences. Much better than exposing your IP and ports in MIRC (easier), where I believe you can't voice right? Plus you can drag and drop files (of up to 100MB) in to private message windows. So yeah I'd go with Yahoo anyday over IRC...

Well I?ve been thinking, if valve can sell HL2 for $54 and half the reason for buying the game is for CS. That means that if BT (Blue Thunder) is going to be better than CS like Mr Cow says, he could probably sell each copy for about $30. So if say 1 million people buy BT like Mr Cow said they would, he should have about $30 million dollars in his back pocket (which he told me to keep hush hush from the rest of the members). Of course I understand that Valve and Steam?s cut might be a few million, plus there?s taxes to consider, but I think I should get something for all this hard work! I mean I'm doing like 3 different jobs so I should get paid tripple. And yes Hollywood I?ve already started court proceedings, my lawyer thinks I have a good chance to at least own 51% of the BT company Come on guys, it's time to fight for your share of BT!! Don't let Mr Cow steal money from you while you're working like a slave for him. Who votes for getting paid up front?
Edit, Look i've just talked to my lawyer he said that if Mr Cow settles out of court for $2,530 everything should be ok...
