I got fed up with the lack of a Source section in the site, so I've decided to make one measly thread in the hope to show there is demand (So post in this if you want to help out and show demand!).
Anyway, post your maps, ownage, mods, stuff you made in Gmod, videos, etc. of things you did in Source.
E: Yes, I am aware I spelled official wrong. So sue me.
Also, here are some tutorials (Thanks legionaire!)

I vote for a section about source, theres so many games and mods. People damn well want to talk about them! :D
I'm glad to see that there is demand, but let's not forget this thread's other purpose; to post stuff you did in Source.
Does playing source games count? :confused:Quote:

Even though I only just fully discovered steam and source games about a week ago, I LOVE source to death, because of this. They're awesome for tweaking a little, and after that, they run *perfectly* on my shit integrated graphics.
So, pretty much, I've got to Anticitizen One in HL2, finished Portal, and spawned too many explosive barrels next to large groups of zombies in Gmod.
You know, I actually have a question. In all my source games, as soon as I start it, it's in 640x480 even if I changed the res last time I played the game. I think it might be because of the -autoconfig parameter the guy in that blog says to do, but idk. Also, when I start a game and get into gameplay, my health, ammo etc. don't show up or are partially hidden, like so:

See? The ammo meter is missing half. Sometimes I can fix this by changing the resolution, but sometimes it still doesn't work. And when I switch weapons in Garry's mod, no matter what resolution it's on, I can't see what I'm switching to; only the top 5 pixels or so of the weapons switching palette thing are displayed. Anyone know why my source games are being so ghey?
Glad you like source Muffin, I assume you downloaded the autoconfig file that the blog suggests, if you open it up in notepad, you should see an area explaining about resolution, if you change this to the numbers you want it. When you run it, it will always be set to them (unless you change of course)
The ammo counters messing up I'm pretty much 100% sure that its to do with the resolution, whenever I played HL2 and changed resolution, it always cut up the ammo counter =\. Changing resolution is really the only fix.
now why the fuck did i not hear about this before tweek >=[?Quote:

I had no idea what this "Half Life" series was when playing WoW (ugh) and Halo. How stupid I was. The orange box is the BEST package EVAR and I'll never let go of that point. /fanboyism
Anyways, Team Fortress 2 is my favorite source gaming right now. Very addicting, yet very fun, and yet not based off of "ZOMG UBER 1337 AWP SKEEL". And there's going to be a hell of a lot of new content past the 15th for it. Crituber will be painful.
+1 for Source section. Crysis is for nubs.
TF2 definitly rules the roost right now. Its at a great price, on the source engine, comical and original style. Different classes makes it more dynamic, rather than like CSS where its just different guns, heres it different speeds, abilities, looks etc.Quote:

Woah seriously?
awesome :D!
i thought the game was pretty fucking balanced as of right now, what are they trying to do?
I'm reading about the unlockables in the new issue of PC gamer right now.Quote:

One of the medigun replacements will replace the invincibility ubercharge with an ubercharge that gives 100% chance for crits for 10 seconds. (before you cry imba, remember that crits don't effect engineering doodads) I'm trusting valve will do their best not to bork the game up too badly.
Firefox is going nuts due to all the TF2 and intarwebz lingo I'm using...
nayone got any links to these new features and achievements?

We only have the pictures and the short names for those, so for some we can make some guesses, and for others, we're in the dark.
if a source section opens up, I might actually hang around these forums more often. I pretty much have nothing to do with halo or halo 2 anymore. I vote we rename these forums to have something to do with just game modding or mapping in general because it seems like no one here even cares much for h2v.
wats a H2Vista :downs:
TF2 is the only way to go :)
<3 the spy
Fun in Killbox.
I'll post some tutorial type stuff for mappers and modelers:
- Good to check this one like once a week for updates.
- Valve's official developer wiki, always good.
- Awesome place for weapon references (used by the developers of STALKER too :D)
- Exporting from 3DS Max
- IF YOU ARE A NEW MAPPER LOOK AT THESE NOW.
- Useful for texturers
- Animating a weapon for CSS
- Great texturing tutorial for hard surfaces
- Tutorial for people who don't know how to bake AO maps (required for the tutorial above)
- Great place to get custom brushes
Hey Limited, thanks for the advice, but the blog doesn't offer a download for an autoconfig file, that's just one of the parameters you put in launch options. Also, there's nothing that mentions resolution in config.cfg (the config file for each of my source games) so I can't change it there. Oh yeah, and I forgot earlier, but in Gmod, everything is gone. I can't see the ammo, health, suit, or even reticle unless I change the res to 1280x800 (my native res), and even then the HUD disappears again after a few minutes.
Gee, I sure hope there'll be a source section on this site soon. *cough*
Stop it con.
now your just talkingnonsense.
OSHI-! RUN CON! THEY NOES!

this might not seem to much to you guys, but this was the greatest owning i have EVER done in TF2
I was a sniper.
i think i got 4 dominations.
23 kills
a ridiculous amount of Headshots
and i was alive for like 15 minutes.
i managed to lock down the Well CTF map completely by taking out everyone that left the base. I hs'd a soldier, then 4 scouts all moving (jumping running ect) in a row with no miss's.
The Medic on my team abandoned the other players and stayed healing me, which i much appreciated. because after about 10 minutes the other team started organizing wave of assaults complete with 1 heavy, 1 medic, 2 soldiers 3 scouts and a pyro comming directly for me.
cause they wanted to take down "that bastard fuckign sniper". I've never ever seen or played anything like it. They completely ignored all other members of my team and waged assault directly at me.
and finally after 23 kills guess how i died?
The train got me. not the team, not the other snipers or the Rush's with soldiers Rocket jumping over walls where i was standing.
the mutha fuckign train.
and to be honest, i think it's made the story all the better for it.
it shows me as a scout regrettably because after the train got me after all that time, i turned scout to help the team cap it out.
Mission fucking accomplished.
and on a side note my brand spanking new G9 Logitech mouse is unbelievably fuckign awesome.
I should go pickup the OB today. I've been missing all the fun :(
Yeah, well worth it. I only wish portal had multiplayer with an ingame map-maker so you could share maps ingame as well.
How the hell would Portal work online?
That'd be like a game of Halo where your only gun shoots teleporters.
Add fall damage and flaming pits etc to make them fall into?
Lol.
BTW, I found out what's causing my games to start in 640x480 and preset graphics settings, it's because of -dxlevel 70, because I was playing CSS and it was lagging and I remembered I didn't set it to DX7, so I did and it started super quick but in 640x480.
I guess it could work like those HL2DM puzzle servers, where multiple people try at once to solve puzzles.Quote:

In Portal 2, if it still follows Chell, she's in this real world now, and there are weapons out there. I don't think she'll be confined to just the portal gun. That would allow a multiplayer game to have some combat weapons, along with the portal gun. I'd bet there be some physics-weapons like the energy ball and/or grenades, if it takes place when the combine is there.
wait wait wait.
theres gunna be a portal 2?
O_____O!
If what Terin says is true, then fuck that shit.
Portal without a focus on portals =/= portal but does = shitty attempt at a sequel.
1 player gets blue portal, 1 player gets red portal. AMIRITE?!
It's an orange portal. Maybe the portal tech from Aperture will seep into the outside world.Quote:
