Another random pic.

I broke the rotating items in a Gmod map and decided to make a pic out of it.

Here’s another one.

got bored

What are your thoughts?

(note I don’t own Jaws… ect)

What can I say? I was bored ;o_o

and thus it begins.

It’s like an off site flash drive that you can’t break.

It doesn’t hold a lot of data even if you pay for it, but allows file sharing with people.

In relation to the blog I guess it could be used to share random stuff I make.

The url for box.net is  www.box.net (dur…)

Also, I might start something on the blog titled “Random Garry’s Mod Pics That Just Don’t Make Sense”

If you are confused after reading  the title, they will be pics that will need a second look so you can try to figure out what the point of the pic was.

I’m trying to make a manga style comic using Garry’s mod and already have the first and half of the second chapter made.

Also i ended up finding a lot of stuff recently on the Half Life 2 Beta leak that was stolen by some guy…
Ok so at first when I heard that the different story line and weapons were discontinued because some body broke into Valve’s files it thought “wow that person must be really good at computers to do something like that.” but after I saw all this stuff about the beta( http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=717600 ) i thought “wow this person is a complete jerk. I’m GLaD they put him in jail”

Thankfully, someone has made a HL2 mod that attempt to recreate the beta to their best abilities.
I might do a review on it when I finish it (http://www.moddb.com/mods/missing-information) I’m downloading it now and can’t wait to try it out.

For now, thats all.

P.S. did you notice the about page I made?

I just completely give up on this whole map thing.

It’s broken and i’m too lazy to fix it, so…. screw it

on a completely unrelated note, does any one know of an easy (like real easy) way to convert an animated .gif to a .vtf or .vmt file type?

some how or another, i don’t have a .bsp for my map

i can now get into the main menu of HL2, but the console appears and says this:
CModelLoader::Map_IsValid:  No such map ‘Mountain_Boat’
map load failed: Mountain_Boat not found or invalid

in red font.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

If you know anything about how to fix this please comment!!

It is stopping me from continuing my map.

Thanks

It took me a total of ab0ut 20 minutes in Photoshop.

House

Ignore the dead combine soldier
p.s. there should be an hidden item on the roof
when the map’s done I wonder who will be able to figure out how to get it.

main section of the house

This is the main part of the house with a kitchen, dining room and living room all in one.

The door on the right leads to the bedrooms and the bathrooms (not giving pics for them want some of the game to be a surprise)
