Just recently I found out you were the one that made rp_city8_2 (and the TnB models?). That map is probably the best I've ever played HL2RP on. And it is so unique, not like every other, that are just so linear, the buildings are ugly and there is always that single and ugly brick road. I want to start with mapmaking, I want to do a map based on Venice. Do you have any tips for a newbie on mapmaking?
Yep I do own/run TnB, and I made all of the City8 stuff.
Sadly C8 V2 does have a huge issue….whenever we tried to run it over 30 players, it would mysteriously just crash. Which basically made it useless :/
Im currently working on rp_pripyat for my stalker server, which is going to be huge.
Venice has already been depicted in a HL2RP map, check out md_venetianredux_b2 (i think thats the path) - despite being made by my gmod arch-nemesis "Waxx" (look under the map and you'll find a message in a little room directed at me….) I must say its actually amazing.
Tips for newbies…..hmmmm….
I guess the main thing I would advise is to keep your mapping organised, on-grid, and always plan beforehand if you really want to create a map that is optimised. Doing outdoor open-plan cityscapes is the hardest thing to accomplish, especially for RP maps on the source engine. However there is ways to do it….
Just learn the tools, and release things as much as possible instead of letting projects sit half-finished on a shelf. Your work will never be perfect - but each completed project will teach you how to get closer to it.

Last weeks stats - “60 hours spent playing DayZ” according to steam.
That’s quite worrying considering there’s only 168 hours in a week.
Surely there has been a mistake :O

Been rushing a bit of work for the upcoming re-release of my HL2RP server.
At the top you can see the difference between a new Metrocop, and the default Valve Metrocop (center). The eye glow will be changable ingame, to be blue / red / green / white, whatever. Im planning on adding removable faceplate / gasmasks too.
Below is a Glock17 that will be the new standard sidearm for Metrocops - something nice, sleek and basic. I went through a phase of obsessing over stupid attachments and outragous weapon designs, these days I think simple is best!
I didnt make these models but Ive been editing them and re-texturing them exactly to fit our needs.
It does indeed put a smile on my face when coders and designers get together to achieve a common goal….very rare for TnB….

I feel so let down.
When I heard the new episode of game of thrones was shocking, I was seriously hoping I’d finally get to see Daenerys Targaryan impaled on a massive barbed dragon penis.

Everyone knows that the Arma2 inventory was perhaps the biggest downfall for DayZ mod….glitchy, ugly, totally un-user friendly….
Whilst this still looks pretty basic, at least its clear that the layout has been simplified…..I doubt anyones gonna argue with that.
Really looking forwards to the customisation feature for clothes and so forth, and finally females will have as many options as males.

Reblogged fan-art!
I suppose It always puts a smile on my face to know that someone somewhere has me in their head, and is using me as inspiration to create artwork or whatever it may be :)

Zara Kane
A little while back I met an awesome and stunning tgirl, here on Tumblr; Zara Kane. She has a cool personality and a really unique style of fashion…the type of look that would make interesting and fun drawings. So, I've been working on drawings, and collabing for her approval. This is the first of two so far.

What a mix up of a night. Was supposed to be in Birmingham for the Mardi-gras festival thing….but that got fucked up, last minute change of plans ended up in London with my besties (left to right) Nico, Amyrah and Lila.
Havnt been to Wayout club before which is unusual considering its one of the main trans venues in the country…..as I expected the first few hours was a grim stereotype of bad 70s and 80s music, with the dancefloor populated by trans grandmas wearing their wifes dresses and silly hats.
Thankfully it livened up a bit….suddenly a huge flock of asian ladyboys just swarmed the club….music didnt get much better but did manage to meet a few decent new people :)
Might consider doing the "understated" look in the future again for a proper night out….I think I was the only girl there just wearing a white skate T-shirt and my hi-tops….competely underdressed compared to everyone else…..but actually got like a 100 more compliments than usual due to that fact?

Spent 6 hours hand-sewing my extensions into a 3/4 fall piece again today….I had clip-ins delivered specifically for ease of use but since there was so many, it felt like my whole head was just covered in clips……
This way is much better :)
Sewing skill +1
Still probably one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
