[QUOTE=Butthurter;31439542]Blue Portals?[/QUOTE] Mabye he means something like back to when it was Narbacular Drop and everything was a lot different.
[QUOTE=razorbeamz;31460319]Is there a SMOD Deathmatch? There should be.[/QUOTE] No, there shouldn't be. But two were made anyway, and they both showed exactly why SMOD stayed a single-player mod. Of course, it didn't help that both mods were made despite SMOD's utter lack of net support. Off that subject, i have a question to ask the community. Can any of you give me a [i]good[/i] reason as to why Fakefactory is the only guy who even tries to make Half-Life 2 and it's Episodes look better? I'm not saying what he does is good, mind you. His character models are laughably out of place and while he usually does decent work on the environments, he often makes bizarre and silly changes. But the cold, hard fact is that if you want anything resembling HD textures for HL2, he's the only one around who does it. So why is that the case? The only answer i've gotten is that HL2 looks perfect as-is and it's stupid to try and make it look better...which is grade-A BS because the Counter-Strike: Source community pumps out [I]hundreds[/I] of high-quality models and textures. The GoldSrc (HL1) community had no shortage of high-quality replacement models that kept the Half-Life style. The Half-Life 2 community has a bunch of M4A1-M203's ported from CS:S, Nude Alyx models, and mediocre Gordon Freeman models buried under lame recolors and RP reskins. I'm sorely tempted to start my own project up. I can't possibly be the [I]only one in the entire Source community[/I] who would want to see a HD Half-Life 2 mod that's done right and NOT just being a bunch of FPSBanana downloads tossed into a ZIP. But given that i can only do model hacking/compiling and texture editing and would probably just have *real* modelers and texture creators telling me to kill myself, i put my odds on going through with such a project as "not gonna happen".
I still think a SMOD deathmatch could be fun if the players had an insane amount of health and every player got only one random weapon from each category when they spawned.
Can anyone point me in the direction of some very good single-player mods?
[QUOTE=Mamok Zalku;31476699]Can anyone point me in the direction of some very good single-player mods?[/QUOTE] Research and Development
[QUOTE=Swiket;31476747]Research and Development[/QUOTE] That one was really good. Any others you know of that might be less known?

[QUOTE=Goodthief;31487967]Have they announced the winners of the steam summer sale raffle yet?[/QUOTE] they won't announce them in public, you'll need to send them a letter asking for the winners. also has anything been posted about this?

Steam was updated. Go to edit your profile and then click settings. Two new options of your profile status: friends of friends, and users only.
[QUOTE=Zedicus Mann;31491321]Summer DLC :v:[/QUOTE] if it is though I hope it's free, maps do not make a DLC
[QUOTE=Goodthief;31500573]if it is though I hope it's free, maps do not make a DLC[/QUOTE]Of course it's going to be free and it's going to be more than just maps. This is Valve we're talking about, not Activision. Stop playing so much Call of Duty. :v:
[QUOTE=Goodthief;31500573]if it is though I hope it's free, maps do not make a DLC[/QUOTE] Valve always gives "DLC" out as a free update to PC and didn't they say it would be free on all platforms?
[QUOTE=Zedicus Mann;31508844]Valve always gives "DLC" out as a free update to PC and didn't they say it would be free on all platforms?[/QUOTE]You can have 1 free DLC on the Xbox but the rest MUST be paid DLC. On the PC/PS3 you can have a much free DLC as you want.
[QUOTE=Butthurter;31513514]hes underestimating it the same way valve supported l4d; new 3 level campaigns every six months[/QUOTE] You mean one 2 level campaign and two 3-levels-but-the-last-levels-are-the-same campaigns.
[QUOTE=Lordgeorge16;31506014]Of course it's going to be free and it's going to be more than just maps. This is Valve we're talking about, not Activision. Stop playing so much Call of Duty. :v:[/QUOTE] oh yeah I forgot, call of duty and crysis 2 have made me despise the word DLC
Maybe you guys could help me. I can't seem to access hammer beyond Half Life 2 Deathmatch and its really annoying. It seems it can't find the files or access them. I've tried everything short of reinstalling the games themselves.

Just opening them up to the menu and closing them works.
[QUOTE=Lijitsu;31521566]Have you played the games at least once since the last time you reinstalled them? Just opening them up to the menu and closing them works.[/QUOTE] I did.
think I'm gonna pick up where I left off on my L4D vehicle mod it essentially teleported the player out of the map while wasd became the controls of a thruster-pushed car prop, pressing e would tele the player back outside the car I stopped because the controls were hard to tune, and it acted really funny when you hit a zombie, but for the most part is was functioning
Is there a Source racing game/mod? I can see how that would be pretty sweet with the physics engine.
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;31526147]There was [url=http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1040031-Valve-Racing-Experience-(Mod)]Valve Racing Experience[/url], but it died when the founder didn't make any more contact, :c[/QUOTE] Aw, that looks like it would had been great fun.
