[QUOTE=Zenpod;32320064]Those are some wierd as fuck kids, I mean, One had a NERF gun (Which isn't strange in itself) and that strange as fuck hat[/QUOTE] It's a private school for high-IQ kids, who are likely the kind of schizo savants that valve employ anyway. Lucky Little fucknuggets. Note to self: Next time this is announced, Order the Spy knife and disguise kit.

Let's show you kids how to use Hammer! We're going to have a whale of a time making maps! Let's see.. You have about... 38 leaks. No you need to make sure there are no gaps to the outside anywhere in your map. Otherwise it won't compile properly. You need to use the pointfile to follow the line that leads to the problem area. Also, you cannot have any entities outside of the rooms. When you're done with that you need to make areaportals so that some portions of the map do not get drawn when they leave the player's sight, for optimization. And you should probably be adding playerclip brushes so that you don't get stuck anywhere. No, you can't use that model, that one's a physics-based model, if you place it as a prop_static it will remove itself. Alright, you should probably add an info_player_start somewhere so that the player doesn't get stuck at 0,0,0. No you need to move it up slightly, otherwise they're gonna be stuck in the ground. Okay. We should probably compile now. It will take a while, possibly several hours if you've optimized it badly and it's a big map. You might run out of memory half-way, and if you click anywhere it's going to crash and you're probably going to lose progress. So just sit here for about 10 minutes or so and don't touch anything. Wasn't that amazing how you drew a room and it was suddenly like it was really there?
It's actually pretty easy to make your first room in Hammer. It just gives you a false sense of skill to take on the next step :v:
I'd trade our mall trip, trip to sony, dc, and the trip to the beach for this. Fucking new jersey sucks

:( I wish my school was awesome enough to take a field trip to Valve.
That has got to be the coolest field trip I've ever heard of. Stuff why this is why everybody loves VALVe
Go figure it's Evergreen, every person I have met that goes to that school are a bunch of bragging rich kids.
Some of those kids never came out. [img]http://i.imgur.com/Uacrk.png[/img]
