Umm, you might have a problem since it needs to run under its own mod. If you copy it over to pure HLDM, the boulder won't work, the doors won't work and so the connectivity will suck.

However, you are very welcome to play it in any way you want I strongly recommend playing it under the Gmdm2 mod., but it's up to you.

Of course, if you could run the Gmdm2 mod. regularly on a server somehow, I would probably worship you

DAMN tim, you are bound and determined to make friends aren't you ?

you might as well start at the top

gollums map is the biggest news around here in a long time, IMO it even overshadows the recent competition that just finished...

if you could run a dedicated server for this mod, "I" would worship you as well..

hehe yes im aware of this... nobody ever plays on my dmc server, so i'll just stick the gollum mod on it. Though... only people from snarkpit would frequent it! Nobody has ever heard of the 'gollum' mod.. heh. This makes getting a full game close to impossible. Though, just say the word, and i'll set it up.

todays word is "BEWBIES"

you'da man..

if you need a few other words i can think up a few quick ones.. but i can also wait to see the others reactions to a dedicated snarkpit server, i am sure you will get tons of praise.

Dude, thats a local IP (192.168.xxx.xxx) are always LAN based. You need to find out your internet IP, as it were. Theres an easy way, which I've forgot...

Anyone care to fill this knowledge void?

ipconfig..? Or with windows, you can find out your IP address on an active network via one of the status windows.

ipconfig will give your locap network ip not your global ip. To get your global ip just google "whats my ip" or somesuch, and websites will tell you what ip requested the page (you, unless your behind a proxy).

Gollum. I haven't downloaded the map yet but I *WILL* in the next few days. The ingame shots looked awesome but the thing that really struck me was the hammer shots. just the 2d wireframe of the whole map looked so intricate and complicated that my jaw literally dropped. Even though I have never played it, I can just tell by the hammer shot that it's going to be the best map I'll ever play...

Well, I don't think you can tell how good a map will be by looking at a wireframe....still, some more editor shots to make people laugh. All the point entities visible here are boulder/door controls and paths (there's too much to see if I show everything):

Me and some #valveerc people play it a bit each day; some really great fun. We only have about 3 players altogether, and since the map is quite big, it takes a while to find each other. Satchels seem to be the dominant weapon in this map, which is needless to say... "Different". It's great setting up traps with satchels, and crowbars are pretty useful in close-quarters as well. I love it. You really need to make another map. [addsig]

Cool Maybe KoRn, myself, Crackerjack, Orph etc. could join together with your group to make a fuller game at some point.

Maaaybe I'll make another map. It's certainly nice to have encouragement

Count me in, if you can work out the timezone differences. I finally got a chance to run around it last night- truly impressive. [addsig]

Mm, played with about 5 #valveerc players on a DSL server. Pretty smooth usually with pings in the ~150 range. No one really seems to go for the RPG since the corridors are so tight; satchels/shotgun are pretty much exclusively used. And when someone does go for the RPG, they're usually satcheled or something anyways. [addsig]

If you grab the RPG, get the LJ too and stay up at the top of the level; descending into the lower corridors makes the weapon....well, useless.
