GoldSource is pretty powerful, just a bit hard to master

Will it compile?

Haha, exactly what I was going to ask.

If it wouldn't, I wouldn't be showing this to you. Of course it will, without any bugs.
This one is probably done for the first time in the history of GoldSource:
Possibilities are limitless...
EDIT: All done with Hammer.

I've tried that kind of architecture on Source. The compiler crashed.

Then you suck. This is nothing. I made and compiled mathematically correct spheres and domes with hundreds of polygons without a single lighting bug.

Jesus Christ, lay off the insults. Just because they can't do what you can do in Hammer doesn't mean they suck ass.

Joabama is right. Take it easy, Dragos, there's no need for that.

I flood your topics? I don't remember flooding any of your topics.
The point here is that there was no need to tell CStriker he sucked. Im sure we all know how buggy Source can be at times.
Now i consider myself an experienced GoldSource mapper, but im having trouble figuring out how you did this one:As far as i know textures won't (texture) lock if you shear a brush, so how did you do it?
And don't tell me i suck bacause i don't know how you did this.

If making terrain is possible, it's possible to do this stuff, why you guys liked it too much? I can't understand.

it can be done with rotate the texture from texture properties pretty easy man...

platoon: I'm showing texture work, not architecture. Maybe you're confusing this with Source's displacements?
The Mighty Atom: It's a mess of work with just about every tool in Hammer. I'm still experimenting, when I'll get it perfectly stable I'll show how it's done.

Dragos, you're acting ridiculous, and more insulting than you perhaps mean to be. The proof is right there in your writing, so please don't try and tell anyone otherwise. Just keep an eye on how you talk to others, please?

@dragos:
no,
I'm definitely talk about goldsrc
about architecture;
look this thing i made long time ago:
http://www.moddb.com/mods/platoon/images/forest1#imagebox
used my own technique to make it, this is what i mean, if we can do it with goldsrc, this kind of things possible to do..
about textures, i think its scratched a bit high (slided) moving down some edge's can help

Damn people, my English isn't perfect. I don't know exactly what emotions are behind what I write. Yeah, sorry for "then you suck". I just wanted to say that you're doing it wrong then, Striker.

There is no problem creating a whole map with such quality at all. You just need experience to be able to make everything as efficient as possible.
As one man said: "A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer."
What I mean, is that you can create a map which will look 100 times better than a map with 100 times more polys. It's all about efficiency.

Hypothesis: Two similar scenes. The difference: one scene has 100 polys, and the other one 12800 polys(almost 100 more polys... 12800 because it's easier for me to take this into consideration).
Let's assume a factor of coolness(FOC). This factor of coolness increases by 1 every time the number of polys double and essentially represents the"looks better by # amount". Now let's assume 100 polys has a default coolness of 1 ( very low). That means the 12800 polys room has a FOC of 7.
From your statement:
TEACH ME NOWA!
My math scales the numbers badly, but you get the idea.

It's all about efficiency.I understand that the 100 polys map can have a FOC of 100, greatly surpassing the 7 of the 12800 polys(about 100 more polys). Holy shit, that means I can actually create a map with 100 polys that looks like one with 100*(2^100) polys?

Dragos is such a retard, he created these pointless threads with one picture in them, expects us to know what they are, and when we comment on them or ask questions about them, he just throws offensive statements at us.

What Skals mon said.
Its not cool. If you have discovered something neat or found a cool way to improve something, share with others, its not like we will think of you as a lesser mapper if you do.

It's called generating interest, if enough people want to see how something is done he'll show how, why waste time posting something if nobody is interested?
He does overreact at times but only because all you guys do is discourage him and discredit him. Grow the fuck up.

Dragos is obviously all about bragging, and not so much sharing, and therefore I consider him a douche who most likely wears his sunglasses indoors.
Impressive mapping, but you're a douche nonetheless

@The Mighty Atom
It's a very old map hack from Quake days, and it's not worth your time. All you have to do is make a simple brush in Worldcraft, save it as a .MAP file, and edit the output with Notepad. Here's the map file format from Valve Developer Community:
(x1 y1 z1) (x2 y2 z2) (x3 y3 z3) TEXTURE_NAME [ tx1 ty1 tz1 (shift x)] [tx2 ty2 tz2 (shift y)] rotation scalex scaley
Here's my five second attempt. It's a simple, flat face (this is before the edit):
( 0 0 -32 ) ( -64 0 0 ) ( -64 0 64 ) CRATE25 [ 1 0 0 0 ] [ 0 0 -1 0 ] 0 1 1
Bam!
( 0 0 -32 ) ( -64 0 0 ) ( -64 0 64 ) CRATE25 [ 0.8 -0.75 0 0 ] [ 0.4 0.5 0.75 -32 ] 0 0.80 0.80

I think Dragos is awesome in his own way. If you all start assaulting him he won't rectify his bragging problems and will probably just be pissed off at the community.
I just... care for this community. I don't want us to loose old, established members.
Also, if Crollo is annoying by his kilometric posts, Skals is situated at the other end:

@ Dragos - No, you didn't explain anything here, all you did is say that GS can look nice and you posted some interesting pictures.
Start explaining more dude.
