I think this may be it: Main point: Don't post absolute crap

Not sure about that, people could pick up props and use them as a sure fire way of killing zombies or use the grav gun jump to boost themselves several 1000 feet high.

Blame the non-existent forum rules...

I would of thought that Counter-Strike would of been a large factor in people getting steam...

That was the strangest reply I've ever had.

I've asked this at every community I've ever been a part of, what was it that brought you to steam (e.g. did you only get steam for a certain game, or was it because of the digital downloads) For me I was playing a (pirated version of CS 1.5 at a local school library at the weekends for several years, those 10 man LANs we had were amazing) But 2 years ago this year the place got shut down and funny enough new game store opened up and was selling the Counter-Strike Anthology. So I decided to buy it and found that I needed to download a program called steam to install & play the games. I've be been here ever since... So, for me it was Counter-Strike and the fact that my only other source of online gaming was shut down. I could probably give you guys a full lecture on how I specifically got to this community...

You may want to add the magnum has enough force to blow back the common props used in prop killing.

But Chiken can they play CS without attempting to stack couches by a door?

Sold in quantity at McDonalds and tastes like crap

That means, no it doesn't Damn, I never even noticed that one half a line of text...

Does it have to be Breen as the victim? Kind of limits things a lot if it is

Going slightly off-topic here, but was raunchy house the map where everyone just ended up camping in the attic?

Well, you put one of Clavus's own maps up there... Around 4-5 of them have been on the server once before already.

Damien, why wouldn't the lava kill you?

Currently doing some early compiles with lighting, just to mess about with colour correction

For the CS:S content

Anyone know anything about .vmts? If so can anyone explain why my texture shows up as wireframe when used? Here's the .vmt code "Lava" { "$basetexture" "lava/lava" "$bumpmap" "lava/lava_normal" "$surfaceprop" "slime" "Proxies" { "TextureScroll" { "texturescrollvar" "$bumptransform" "texturescrollrate" 0.02 "texturescrollangle" 10 } } } Fixed it, I for some reason tried ton use a non-existent shader

Someone either only likes the look of pictures, or is unable to read I think it's the latter Edit: either way judging a map that's so far had less than 3 hours development time in it, is a pretty stupid thing to do

I've decided to start a new ZS_ map (every attempt I have done in the past has been either abandoned or shot down) so I decided to give mapping another shot, I've not gone for a totally realistic theme here; the fact there's a holy building surrounded by a lake of lava, set on on volcanic terrain at the top of a volcano wouldn't appeal to me as being realistic. The name Hekla is Icelandic for hood (also the name of the worlds most active volcano) And since I'm feeling generous, if you post within the next 30 minutes I'll throw in a very early .BSP of the Map for you guys to test, absolutely free! Don't be a dumb ass and comment on no lighting, not even valve waste time adding lighting in such an early stage of development (it just slows things down) Here's the current to-do list - Add spawns - Fix custom Models not showing up - Edit gooinglass texture for use as lava (Done, but being tweaked) - Add smaller outer ruins to act as camping spots for humans and as a zombie spawn - Add 3d SKybox - Easter eggs - Add sprites & sounds to add ambience - Optimise map - Add lighting - Tweak lighting - Release map - Add subtle colour correction And here are some very early screenshots Update: Early colour correction tests

What's the point in going AFK when you play ZS though? There's no benefit to it

SMS services like that are pretty costly to set up, and to keep running I think Clavus or Ywa once said

Adding to my last real post, try more abstract themes, like an old ruin of a building set in a volcanic type area (like a volcano) But try not to go for that exact theme since I'm working on it right now...

I laughed after reading such a hypocritical message...

Funny thing is you were asking Clavus to put nude Alyx models on the servers a month or two back.
