haha, not public, yeah right, if it's released, it'll go public, one way or another. I hope they just release those tech-demo maps with the game, infact, I might go email Gabe.

You can resize the size of the video window, yay! no more evil scrollbar, until I close it an open it again :(

Why not just start speculating about the VR helmets for Half-Life 5? I'll be fumming if they don't exist by then!

Hey, I found some of those vids get a bit jerky, kind of like screen tearing, download bink tools, the link is at the end of the video, just click and it should open. When you have the program, you can then use it to open the video's and change preferences, what you want to change might be...

You don't know a thing about pixel shaders, try a google search on "pixel shader" and prepare to be dazzled !:eek:

all the camera would do is take a shot of the room, regardless of whether it's looking at it's own output or not, wouldn't make any difference, then update that shot to the display, do it again, so after 5 captures you'd see the five tracebacks to the screen, what's so hard to get?

Wow, Half-Life 2's in-game graphics are approaching the level of detail we are seeing now pre-rendered, that's impressive. and I think the lipsyncing will just be so much more imersive.

Yeah, safer to go with CRT at the mo, and alot cheaper! there is some number you'll see in LCD tech info, can't remember what it is, but it defines the lasting time of the light in the pixel or something, so basically how fast it can refresh to a darker colour(eliminating streaks). But you will...

Getting Old Intel and nVidia are alike, AMD and ATi are alike. Intel and nVidia go for clock speed and don't care too much what is accomplishied in each clock cycle AMD and ATi both have slower clock speeds, but seem to accomplish the same if not a bit less or a bit more. They achive...

I think it will get even better(if you can call it better) once half-life 2 is actually out, so we all know what the h3ll we are all talking about :P

Technowater, very cool liquid effect, hey since I'm here, I noticed on your side those 'plain' wallpapers which were pretty cool, but they had jpeg shittyness, when only one colour, you can use gif, it will keep the exact image, and 16 colours is probaly all it needs, please do that.

is that a 9500 Non Pro or a 9500 Pro ??? they should both run well enough, but the Pro would be a sure thing. it's just about a 9700

I don't care what it says here, I'm walking into the store on September 30 to get my copy of Half-Life 2, and I won't leave until I have it.

I spoke to gabe, he told me that you get to the roof of the final building, and as you step towards the G-Man a portal opens and sucks you in, some freaky stuff happens, and you wake up at the begining of the game again. Rinse wash and repeat. EDIT: didn't really hear that from gabe.

LoneDeranger, I think maybe if it ran like crap, some people just wouldn't end up buying it, not all of the planet are h-l2 crazed like us :P

Re: Re: 1024 vids sizing question Nah, two reasons it's like that, firstly, I was mucking around with that Bink tools that changes all kinds of things, so I was just checking it out, didn't like it much, and it also looks even worse because I needed to compress the image so much, that it...

Ha ha! good plans, I'll start with no. 5, then try good ol 3, 4 will make me sick, 2 is worth a shot and 1 I may as well just switch off my monitor.

Cool, I hope so, but just odd they would do that, guess wide screen allways looks better

Those vids that everybody says are 1024x768 aren't x768, they are 5hundred and something, they are in wide screen, what about the game? will it be in wide screen to? any body think to ask this before? official size etc posted in attached screen shot

I am the first to admit that I am terrible at games. It took me a year before finaly playing quake 2 because I though it was too scary. H-L had the perfect mix for me, then just recently I went way over my cap with that doom 3 alpha, whoa I can't begin to explain how scared a was, coarse it was...
