remember back a few years ago when everyone had jobs, the economy was good, and our educational system wasn't going down the crapper?

and then the whole country got all worried because the president like his cigars with a special flava to them?

what a great reason to put king george and the bumblefuck patrol in charge of our country. glad to see our deficit sky rocketing, jobs markets decimated, dead soldiers piled up, and fox news being treated as a credible news source.

/me stands and applauds

maybe the US can try and pressure the UN to take some action about it, besides just passing resolutions.

we have jiggy breast tech yes, that's a tweak of the physics engine though, not the cloth system.

well, hl2 wont have cloth. But our game will have lots of flowing capes and swooshing hair and that sort of clothy goodness.

we have implemented a number of things independantly of valve, including a more versatile particle system, more versatile lighting code, as well as cloth and enhanced physics on character models.

/me adds to way too large font collection

could you put hitting a penguin with a bat somewhere in there? I think you would be golden then.

but you SHOULD care, becuase bloodlines will come out soon after!!

did you have to build those diorama things for that baby drawing? I hated that assignment.

btw what font is that spine

I liek the blue rooseter 1

I would play it.

no hud = the holy grail

ITS NOT BLUE!!!!!!!

SACRILEGE!!

BURRN HIMMMMM!

WHERE DID YOU GET THAT LITTLE RC YOSHI CART???

VTM:Bloodlines

the googley eyes have invaded teh intarneT!!!

O_o

The valve is small, like a bunson burner valve. Good idea posteh. I would like to be able to spend more time on it but for something that the player sees for 10 seconds the entire game, I have time better spent elsewhere. Like hooking up the 1337 troika particle fx so it actually does something besides sit there. Thanks for ze comments!

heres a little prop I did for a map I'm working on. It's a floor mounted flame thrower. *hisssssss* WHOOSH!

/me rummages through network at work and finds original 3d models for fallout wall sections

/me teaches nightwatch mappers the sacred alt-clicking texture application technique.

actually, I changed my mind. This entire mod is pure dog shit, check it out guys, I found some mis-aligned textures in this shot. SPREAD THE WORD!!! THIS MOD RAPES BABIES!

those shots look superb.

I have a crush on jenna elfman, but no.

OMG A MIS-ALIGNED TEXTURE. It's SOOOO rare to see those in games these days, I mean most other people have texture alignment alarms that go off above the office and rain down acid upon the artists while sirens and strobe lights capture the horror that is the misaligned texture.

you guys are the toughest critics I've met in my entire life. I see mis-aligned in every single game I play.

I just spent awhile playing the single player, and watched someone play the multiplayer for awhile, and I have to say I think that it's a pretty stand up game, at least I don't think there would be much you could to to get cs onto a console any better than how it was done in csx. I thought the levels looked cool, the detail textures add a lot to make the surfaces seem higher resolution. I even saw plenty of rounds of dust and I think it looks just fine, there are a lot of cool details like vehicles and domes and things on the buildings that add a lot. And I did not spot the 20 foot tall barrel anywhere, and I was even keeping an eye out for it. I'm pretty sure that barrel was from an old screenshot before it's size was adjusted. I'm not a console or even x-box guy so I didn't do very well with the controls at first, but after about 5 minutes of playing I was doing well enough to get an even number of kills / deaths against the bots on beginner setting. I think the buy interface /gui they use is ingenious, and it makes buying your stuff 10 times easier than in the pc version.
