I wont vote I would like to but since i dont have HL i cant playtest, and if i cant playtest i feel i cant vote. All maps looks really cool and you guys did a great job! Really wished i could play them, i will download the mappack and one day ill buy HL (again i have a copy bought once but i think my sisters son have it)

Quote from von*ferret

it feels kinda squat for some reason. I suggest getting a better environment map and looking into HDR because the shader is what is really bringing the model down at this point.

This is just because you know stuff, ppl here are rather talented so they notice things. And you give good advice so im not like pointing finger at you saying you are mean or anything. I just want to say when i say it i go all WOOOA and starts to drowl It's good though that not all are like me but can look at it at a more professional poit of view and give constructive critism. Anyways KIIA WOOOA!!! :þ~~~

I remember you Superslacker, wb! Allways fun to see old members popping in again. And wacko where am i @ at that pic?: [Blocked Image: http://www.thewacko.com/mapcore/gayfp.jpg] But i bet i was banned at the moment probably. I remember when i first join #mapcore, i was a bit scared allthough i was much older then every one, but they where all so tough and experienced in the game making (not really) but at the same time i was mad how they treated noobs that just wanted a bit of help. So i got banned a lot, untill i got op. What happened next is another story.

Awsome stuff, i browsed a good 1 hour and looked at everything and still the experience ended way to fast. I just wanted to see more.

Wow theres really nothing i can add, all the above writers says it so good. I would take up on what they all wrote.

Quote from JamesL

Dunno if its true or not but one of the artists here just told me that Max was traditionally used because it was more easily warez'd.

Could be true if you are a noob i guess. But if you know how to get hold of warez in general theres no difference in maya or max, they are both equally easy to get hold of. But also i think more ppl heard of Max so when they look for a 3dmodeller app the most ppl tend to search for Max.

But after reading all these post's i still stand what i said in my post. WHich btw isn't something i found out for my self but read from another great 3d artist. Learn one app first, so you know everything in it, so you are really good at it. Then make the switch and try other apps. Different people will allways have a second opinion about this depending on which app they use. Probably some 3d apps are better for some stuff and some not so good for just that particulare task. But for learning, i say stick with one. The thing is, you hear all this talk about this is better and that is better so will end up finding out for yourself in the end anyway, and if you get problems in one app you might think i should have listen to the other guys and jump over to the next app. If you do i think the risk is bigger that you never learn.

Have you tried it yet? How was it? Can we see some renders?

If you have allready started with max i would suggest stick to it. The thing is i dont think it really matter which app you start with, its more like you have to learn one really really well, and then you have much aesier to try out another one. I think jumping from app to app whithout really geting into it is bad business.

Do one now then. I got haltde because i suck at texture it.

Ok thats just stupid since some of us (me) dont have a clue about skatebords. But i guess the jokes on you since i dont get it.

could some one delete this thread since it seems it didnt

Why is that? There are lots of them out there, i just want to know how they did them or even more simple convert gif's. It seems like its very secret about all this, perhaps because some thinks they can make money out of ppl that wants some fun stuff in their msn. But if i could do my own graphics to it why should i or others that want to use it have to pay for it? Or dl free stuff thats full of spyware and crap.

Well i made a gif anim and i want to see if i can use it in msn messanger. Msn messanger use its picture as .dat i was able to use the gif i wanted but it wasnt animated. and there are other pictures that are animated so im thinking there has to be a way to do this. and thx a lot skdr i downloaded and tried that app, but for now i haven't got it to work, maybe i do something wrong. but if nothing else you gave me a hint on what to search on at least, i only searched for .gif > .dat and .gif > .dat converter. Ill try out gif 2 dat too.

Hey. Im need of a .gif > .dat app. I have been searching google like half a day now. Only thing i find thats even cloose is a .dat > .gif converter which is bull since all you have to do is to rename it. So im putting my hopes to you guys. Any one had any experiance with this or knows an app for it? Ultimate would be freeware but as long as i get any name i would be gratefull. Thx in advance!

Quote from CrazyMac

Going with Steppenwolf on this one.

Plus haven't we had like 2billion Rome related films already...kind of like WW2...it's getting a tad boring.

There were other wars.

I am a bit dissoriented right now. I thought i heard Spartacus in the clip but im pretty sure the slaves where more then 300, they where like several thousands. If they didnt said Spartacus in the clip they must have said Spartans or whatever they call Spartans. And if so i can't recall one single movie about the Spartan war? I have seen a lot of documenteries though on Discovery. Im looking forward to this i just love movies about our history.

[edit]Just watched it over again and actually listened. And it was Spartans. So im really looking forward to this one.[/edit]
