That's a once-in-a-lifetime offer, right there.

Yep, because you'd probably run into a pitchfork about 20 minutes into discussing the map.

(oops this isnt EOT)

Anyways, the maps look interesting... A little basic, a little blocky in places, but overall not bad for a fy/fun/whatever map. With these maps its more about gameplay.. Keep it up, they'll get prettier..

I've been meaning to take some after-storm pics for a while now, finally got around to doing it a couple days ago. Just walking around my house taking random pictures my crappy camera(digital elph....)

I got a few ones that I consider good. Most of the not-good ones I blame on the camera.. the subject is good, just didn't photo well.

Here is my favorite. This is a shot of my brother's '78 bronco. Don't know why its my favorite, I just like it. I like the water on the aluminum grille, I like the not-quite-closed hood, I like how the sky's blue gray looks against the truck's blue.. I like the contrasting orange, I like the curve of the trim on the fender flare. I just like it. I think its probably one of the best pictures I've taken.

No color adjustment, no cropping, this is exactly what I took off the camera, scaled down with a black border around it:

Okay, sit back 5 or 6 feet from your monitor so you don't notice the shitty quality, and this looks like a good picture.. This one I did tweak a bit, I bumped the hue and saturation a touch :embarassed: Its also cropped.

This is why I've been wanting to take an after-storm pic

Completely un-altered, just scaled and added a border!

Quote from Thrik

I read that this film is supposed to help explain why Bond became the way that he did, so perhaps it's the trauma in this film that makes him such a cold killer of men.

Yeah it seems to be a 'Beginning of Bond' movie. Exciting for sure.

First sony's batteries caused half a million laptops to be recalled, now they're falling horribly short on PS3's? Tough year for sony.

Thought it was time to post a screenshot

This is the first level for the mini-mod we're workin on... Kabelen is workin on level 2, I'll throw a screenshot of that in here too

I'm going to try to have something new tonight..

Kabelen's map, level 2

You will be missed. Sure I've chuckled at him before, how silly he was, some of the stunts he pulled... But you have to admire that kind of drive and passion, you could see it in everything he did. He had a real energy about him, and it is truly sad to see that energy snuffed so quickly while it was glowing so brightly.

RIP

The only thing I dislike is the bridge(besides the map being a *bit* too bright)

The bridge itself isn't bad, I rather like the design, but it looks unfinished. The concrete "T" blocks look odd, you should give them a different texture so they don't just look like a blob of concrete. They need some edges. The lower curved wood support taht goes into the wall, doesn't look right either - it just kinda disappears into the wall. How about a little concrete 'foot' for that too? What is tying the horizontal planks together? Bridges have long boards running the length of them, your doesnt seem to have anything. But other than that, it looks good.

Oh and one more thing, can I use your texture for the wood beams? I'm in desperate need of some wood texture for my map

Of course it's fake, wakeup guys

I want it to be real

That'd be a kickass movie

Quote from Johnny

a lot of serious thought and pondering went into the creation of my name, if i told you i would have to kill you.

You're talking to Mapcore. We're already dead inside. Your threats mean nothing.

I was 12, and I thought the nickname 'twiZteD' was cool for counterstrike. I then realized it was retarded, but everyone already knew me as twizted so I just shortened it to twiz, so its only 96% flaming homo instead of a pure 100%. I've considered changing it many times, but I just can't bring myself to do it.. Its been with me so long now.

Another interesting note, this is the only place that I still use the nick 'twiz' or any variation of it. On other forums I either use my real name, Ben Sinclair, or the awesome nickname "TomServo". I use TomServo in game as well. I also use the nickname duplox, which actually has an interesting history.

'duplox' started out DuploX. You see, my full last name is Lagosz-Sinclair. My older brother got the nick name 'Lego' since the first letters of my last name kinda sound like it. Since I'm his little brother, I then got the nickname 'Duplo', the little kid version of Legos. The highschool where I got this nickname was called Xavier, and since the yahoo email accound [email=''[email protected]']'[email protected][/email]' was taken, I just threw the X on there for Xavier. So if you ever need to email me, [email protected]

Come to #collabsp @ gamesurge. Talk to me or twiz if we're around. Should get some info then!

Indeed I might have a couple screenshots later on today...

YESS it looks great! I can't wait for january!

I LOVE the classic steam/grate sound at the end. Just that sound can put a big stupid grin on my face.

hmm starcraft 2 would be awesome. I really don't care about the plot, IMHO the plots in the blizzard games were always kinda... meh. I just don't like the system. I really just want to see an updated Starcraft. New characters, new ships, better graphics, improved interface, maybe some new multiplayer modes? The multiplayer is what always did it for me.

I never bothered much with SP in any of the RTS games(Warcraft, starcraft, AOE), I'd always just do the you vs. CPU maps(forgot what they called em) with a ton of resources . Build up a massive army and go fuck up the comps. Either that or multiplayer.

whoa! awesome! can u make me an Animal model

I'm not sure... it seems if I load a saved map, it doesn't havet his problem, but if i start a new one, I have to do the click drag thing.

What I do is click the camera tool, and click-drag in a 2d viewport(like you were aiming the camera). That jump starts the 3d view for me.
