20GB textures? WTF! i will never install a game that takes 20GB just for textures, its a complete waste of HD space, no matter how good the game will be.

you can take some ideas from here:

You have the sugestions thread wich has lots of nice ideas.

You can also check the rules since they are being updated for more then a year now, and cover all the possibilities, they were even used on the addondb competition.

And you can check all the competitions we made so far to get some ideas.

Use what you want, i don't mind

Forget Norton and get the AVG free edition. Its without any doubt the best free anti virus that you can get:

They have no clue where she is, the russian guy who was arested is going to sue some newspapers for difamation, and the police is checking the evidence they toke from the mains suspect house.

Well quakis was the one saying that he haven't heard about it before, maybe it was his fault lo0l

But in the first days after she went missing all i saw coming from the UK was jornalists saying that our police wasn't doing anything since they didn't passed any information about the case to the press. What they didn't knew was that we have a law that doesn't allow anyone to talk about ongoing cases, specialy with the press. I also saw a news piece saying that Algarve was the number one destination in europe for pedophiles, and i seriouslly doubt that that is true. Basically they where trying to give a bad image of our country.

But i also saw a guy from skynews (i think) saying that the british media are used to having all the details of a investigation, that being the reason whey they where pissed of with the portuguese police, but that he fulled understood ou reasons for doing things this way. So i think it is probably like you say, only the tabloids that do this sort of stuff.

Quote from Thrik

Are you just making assumptions or do you actually know what you're talking about? Being British, I've seen the media's coverage of it, and for the most part it's been very sympathetic. Granted, tabloid newspapers concentrate on the worst stuff, but that's to be expected.

Well if they don't even say that the police already got at least 2 of the guys responsible for taking the girl, but instead only criticise how bad the portuguese authorities are handling the case (which is not true) i think its fair to say that they are not handling it in the most proper way.

When something happens between the UK and Portugal i always get the feeling that you british folks don't like us that much...

Quote from Rick_D

the parents went out and left the kid alone with the door unlocked.I'm not saying they deserve it, but maybe it;s just natural selection getting rid of the stupid people.

And guess what they where doing? having sex with their swinger friends...this is true, the police found photos of it on the parents camera

I've never heard/read that anywhere myself but it can sound suspicious. However what Thrik says worries me the most;

That just proves my point on how the brithish media don't care if they find the girl or not, they just want something that sells...

Anyway the guy i mentioned earlier is wayting to go to court, so i guess they are sure that he did it. They also arested a russian guy today that they suspect helped take the girl out of the country, but they have no idea of where the girl is.

The man that build the house of the first guy who was arested said that there is a secret room under the house, which is usually used to store tools to work in the fields. I'm not sure if the police as searched there yet, they probably need a warent.

I'll keep you guys updated

You're also from Portugal? Nice

I think they already found the guy who did it.. at least thats what they are saying on the news. The guy was the translator for her parents and said in a interview something like "I've a daughter with the same name and age, and she looks exactly the same as her"... how dumb can a person be?

But I'm so pissed with this situation, i understand its sad that the girl is missing and all, but the british media are a bunch of assholes! Stop pointing the finger at the portuguese authorities, and saying that we are a "pedo paradise". If anyone as any fault its her parents who left her alone so that they could have sex with their swinger friends!

We invented South America

Warby... please stop

I've never seen anything like this, great job

I'm playing that one to, imo this is the best RTS ever made

Did you by any chance opened the file in hammer 3.4?

If it is like ReNo says you can try opening it in hammer 3.4, save as .map and try to open it again but in hammer 4, not sure if this will work but you can try

If i know anything about source is that if it says line 9, then the error is not in line 9

Have you tried opening one of the auto-saves?

Quote from FrieChamp

From what I've read in articles and seen on TV some of those favelas in brazil make compton and the bronx look like disney land so I would be careful with such comparisons

If you get the chance, watch a movie called "Cidade de Deus"

Anyway really cool project, i've been part of something similar, but it was on a shopping center, instead of being on the street.

I managed to download the "demo" that he released, and this seems to be true, there are some screnshots of valves internal web system, and hundreds of php files which look real.

Here are some of the images in the pack, i hope its ok to post them here:

D'oh.

No idea if the sword of Damocles is over my head or not, but its probably time to get updating the 'ol CV.

Why don't they just sell some more PS3...

I remember playing a war flight simulator (can't remember the name tough) on the PS1, that was probablly the most frustating game ever. It toke me a week just to figure out how to move with the plane and land it properly. Then I started doing all the missions, which where even more frustating.
