Thanks I'll send you an invite, it is always interesting to see how others do, especially when you're doing things wrong

If and when we have a 5v5 I can record a demo if you like? (assuming I'm playing)Well yeah but otherwise I can just add one of you and check out how good players play without you moving a muscle

Could it be possible to see how you guys play to learn some things?

Quote from Vorontsov

I really like when people do this and sometimes I would love to try and give someone else my project to help me but what is stopping someone from taking the .vmf and keeping it / using it as their own / publishing it etc? Is there some sort of protection against it on Mapcore or is it just based on moral and trust? Also it appears that when shady people uses vmf from others with success, they are not from here and they only make night maps and such!

You can get a 3-year free version as a student from Autodesk's site (you can use the complete Creative Suite including Maya).

As Muffin pointed out it seems that the school you are attending need to have some kind of contract with Autodesk. I had that with some engineering software, school had to give some info to fill in. There is also a limited free version, but it's limited in time if I remember right.

Do you have a steam account? If so, what is your username i'd be happy to friend you.And sure I have one it is the same username I use here

The Blender plugin works fine. Then just use Crowbar for compiling, because it actually works.

My bad then,the time I tried it was quite a long time, a new version blender was out not long before so it may be why it didn't work

Sketchup has a plug-in to export vmf and smd, it works well but there are some habits yo take,I can help you with that if you need! Blender has one too but I didn't succeed in making it work maybe it has a new version, I'll check when I will have more time ! Hope it could help you!

Quote from PaulH

Watching a series called Banshee, hadn't heard much about it but it's actually pretty good

How's season 3?

Yes it was at -1,99€

Yes I meant that. Nowhere but steam wouldn't let me "buy" it alone.

Maybe it is because I do not save payment informations on there. Anyway it would make sense that you'd have to make up for the difference, otherwise it wouldn't have any marketing advantages excepting the fact it is funny

Well it appears that you can only but it if you buy something else and that it is expensive enough to cost you something!

If it is at this price they want to make you buy something else! Once I had a game on my wishlist at -110% I refreshed a dozen times before believing what I was seeing

I'll test the new version when I will have a proper Internet access

They are not too hard but at first I needed two or three tryouts to really get it properly, but it is nice, if this goes into an operation many will fall and die at first,and us here will have a great advantage for a round or two, niark!

Well I like them even if I failed hardsome times

About the railing textures, it can be annoying to be shot from underneath especially when you can be shot from other angles too, it feels much riskier than the other paths !

(By the way like Phoenix doing many things ! )

Was it intentional to place cool jumps from CT spawn ?

Quote from unremarkable player

Importing block work is fine but I do have really good reference pictures from my latest visits to Italy and Spain that I thought could be useful. I think that there needs to be consideration for improving the game play because of the CT nature of the original version. It didn't really play out as a 3-lane map because 2 lanes merged into 1 and the choke points were always in CT favour.

Some of the windows should be removed, possibly the rafters or something. I don't mind the upper layout but I think it needs to be refined so that there's at least some reason to use it; better access to B etc.

If you want to change the Theme and go for something Alhambra-esque I have good pictures of every room you could visit, if I remember right, and if you need/want more

However the original theme was more based on castles in France, I think I have pictures too!

Quote from RivFader

I wish the voting system would be more akin to Garry's Mod, featuring a larger list, flexible voting and (iirc) a ban on the map that was played the last time for the current voting (I am looking at you, Dust 2).

If Valve added this and actually changed up the Active Duty every season in a bigger way while continuing to improve competitive play on other maps it would lend to a far more diverse gamign experience.

Why do you want to force maps on players? Especially horrible maps like Aztec. I understand where you're coming from (removing the last played map from the vote pool wouldn't hurt), but if people want to play Dust2 all day, let them. Casual reserve server doesn't stay full for long, there's a reason for that.

It would be even worse for pro players, you can basically forget about strategies, great plays, teamwork, etc.

Developpers are trying to respond to the needs of their players, nothing more. If everybody wants to play Dust2 and you're the only one hating on Dust2, it's your problem, not theirs.

It could be worse, at least we get to play great custom maps on MM. There's still community servers if you want other maps.

It is more like encouraging people to get out of their comfort zone. Sure there are players that are pretty good on Dust II since they play it all day long, but they do not want any other map because they fear they won't be as good. And on the matter of pro players, playing the same map all over again doesn't lead to real strategy so much as it is an habit to play that way against a team who plays a certain way. Great plays will be encouraged by less played maps, where it would be more about instincts and imagination! Indeed, it is in front of the unknown that you see what someone is made of otherwise it looks too much like some soccer leagues where nothing really happens that is consistently genius!

Some games play better with controller, but I straight up wouldn't bother playing cs with one. You have to enable configs to get it all running and you will be out aimed.

I vaguely recall a download to stabilise the 360 wireless controller. It would be worth googling for a patch or something along those lines.

On the topic of purchases, my partner and I gathered our resources and bought ourselves a car! First large, joint purchase for us! (ermagherd we're all growed up)

100% best bit about it is the lumbar support because I'm such an old man

Not trying to be showy, I'm just really excited and didn't know who to share with!I know I have a mice for counterstrike it feels more natural, but it is nearly impossible to play nba 2k15 without a controller while feeling comfortable

And Congrats! Your car looks cool! I guess the color helps too

Quote from TheGuma

The pros wouldn't play other maps even if we made more, simply because the map pool would be too big.

Not if maps are chosen randomly, I mean if you're good, you're good no matter what. In real life when you have a sport match, you do not know the place like your pocket, but if you know what you are doing everything goes fine, you train a while before the match to ne accustomed with the playground and then you show what you can do. At least it is my personal opinion
