[QUOTE=Wokkel;22756756]Philip, whatever you do or whoever you are is none of our business.
I don't know you, but it seems that a lot of people hate you.
I have one thing to say though.
Tutorials have to be long, you can't explain complex things in 3 seconds.
You might be able to do it, but people don't have a clue what you are on about because they are just doing the exact same thing you do in the video's.
Tutorials are meant for people to learn something, doing the above isn't learning, its copying. You have to explain people why you press a button in hammer, and what is going to happen etc. etc.
What you seem to be doing is this:
Create a block like this, press Enter, then click it and press Shift+A, then click on browse and double click this. click apply and close the screen. Now press Ctrl+T. then select func_breakable, click apply and close the screen. we now have a breakable wall.
I am not going to say how it is supposed to be done, but if a newbie would watch your tutorial he would only be able to do it with your tutorial and not by thinking logically.[/QUOTE]
Finally! Some one who can post a decent post! I shall take your fears into account, but my tutorials tend to be to the point, so there's actually less for people to forget than in most tutorials. This has made the entire thread worth while. I can now leave.

I like this thread, I like Hawx, I dislike 3kliks...

[QUOTE=hawx;22756840]me :sigh:[/QUOTE]
Hm? Not you, I meant 3k.
3klik is now Napoleon for having an infinite amount of horses to ride off in
Second time you have rode off? Memory of a goldfish. Also everyone has youtube open at the same time as mapping so they do not need to remember anything.
I don't use YouTube for mapping at all, once I have watched a tutorial, that was the Fake DMM bullcrap, since then I have learnt alot more on various text based tutorials and the VDC then I have from YouTube, I've learnt so much from Facepunch as well, thanks Facepunch, you're awesome.

[QUOTE=3kliksphilip;22756667]I like to compare myself to Jesus. I come to the world, here to help people. I have made the world a better place, and now YOU, the evil Romans, are trying to crucify me. You can't get rid of me, I'll go down in history!!![/QUOTE]
Wait what.
Don't even... How dare you compare yourself to Jesus. He helped people who asked for his help. You just shove it in everyones face! You obviously didn't make the world a better place, you annoyed people.
We are not "the evil Romans". We are trying to hold up a mirror here. You won't go down in history, because the moment you die, people will forget who you are. and you will just go down as a vague memory.
Yes, Thanks Terrenteller as well, thanks for the Encyclopedia with you, I wouldn't know what the hell a brush was.
Interlopers is more skilled but Facepunch...is just less boring I guess.
I read both but FP more because there is more to read and a greater variety in the mapping section alone
[QUOTE=metallics;22757002]Fix'd[/QUOTE]
Actaully I don't think I have ever met terrenteller.
Also Jesus was a fake and so are you.
Mhmm, Interlopers and Halfwit-2 are an amazing place to learn from, it looks like 3kliks is gone as well, thank goodness.

Have you never heard of the saying:
"tell me and i will forget. show me and i may remember. involve me and i will understand"
I certainly haven't, do you know it's origin?

Terrenteller compiled the encyclopaedia of mapping knowledge for this section and directly or indirectly (he contributes to the VDC, researching stuff from source code, vmf format etc.) has contributed an awful lot of knowledge to this (and all) mapping community. He also is still working on the excellent VIDE: [url]http://www.riintouge.com/VIDE/[/url] VIDE > tutorials. And yet, you've never heard of him, because he doesn't care for people knowing who he is. Shining example of a mapper.

This, this is where you are going wrong, you are being a pretentious douche nozzle, and ruining any kind of public relation you have with the higher level mappers by doing so. If you want us t criticize you properly, stop being a dick.
As much as it pains me, I may actually try and give you some advice. Fuck it's going to hurt though.
[list]Firstly: As I said, stop being so pretentious, it makes people hate you, the only people who wouldn't are your average subscriber (12 year olds), as they think it is "lol funni XDXD".
[*]If you are going to make tutorials for beginners, don't make one video cover about three topics, make sure that a single video covers an entire topic, so, lets say, brushwork? Make a video cover simple brush making, some of the tools you can use, and how to use these tools effectively. Don't worry about texturing until another video, the same applies to entity work. Take you viewer through something completely before moving on.
[*]get better at mapping yourself, seriously, your maps are a joke considering you think you can teach.
[*]Stop being so "uppity", nothing puts me off a tutorial than someone who starts a video with something like "HEEEEEYYy GUYSSS, time for ANOTHER tutorial!!!!!", it sounds fucking dumb.
[*]Teach the viewer some good techniques, things like how to make corners more effectively/ easier to texture, then let them decide how to use them.
[*]Teach the user good practice, no more "use hollow as it saves time" shit, use cordon or get out.
[*]Bring the user through different levels of skill, start with easy, move on to slightly harder, etc. Then find a way to bring it all together in the end so it makes sense.[/list]
You're still a douche though.

He's around... check the sticky. He only posts with cold hard fact, and yes, he's taught me plenty for sure.
ITT: Terrenteller appreciation station, everyone from now on should post about how they love him.
Pessimistic yet true fact don't even try Source mapping if you are in it to impress people. Or at least people who aren't also into it.

Terrenteller is a great teacher who will only recommend something if he knows it won't fuck with the engine too much. It's great to have someone like him around.
I do love Terrenteller, everytime he does post it's always something useful and entirely related, I never knew the majority of the VDC was him, Thanks Terrenteller, you're awesome :love:

Haha, I love how this thread has been derailed and turned into a Terrenteller appreciation one.

1. To make renowned or famous.
I'm renowned and famous, that makes me famous.
Also, I think the wide variety of videos I've uploaded to youtube disproves that comment about me being afraid of showing my skills off.
I can't believe you people. You're beginning to argue with dictionary definitions. Next you'll be saying that black is white. Or that I'm shit at tutorials.[/QUOTE]
Thus by your logic, i'm famous too. Woo...everyone bow down, for i am god!
