Yes. And today I managed (when I was going to IT College [a funny co-incidence, isn't it? my initials are I and T...]) to spot a weird-looking building and thought "wtf? bad vertex manipulation".
Oh, and hab... I have imagined many places in a game... i actually do it most of the time even before... I thought hmm... it would be fun to make huge roads which would take lots of time to drive through...

Anyway, yeah, I got myself a map I'm optimizing this minute :P It has lots of clipping to do now :P damn mappers who can't optimize their map on-the-go... noobs... not to mention i never did any optimization before... :P

There have been so many times where I've been inside an interesting structure and wish I had my digital camera with me so I could take a bunch of shots for later. There's a new library that was just built at my school and it is awesome inside.... and out.

I just tried finding images of it online but to no avail, and my digital camera chord is missing so no dice.

You know what drives me crazy? Lack on inspiration. I often make something nice and don't know what to do next. It's driving me insane! Guess i'm a prefabber at heart.

Yeah I'll make a cool elevator or a cannon or something but then have a hard time thinking of a level to make that usually takes me a great deal of time compared to the thing I made it for.




Reckless disregard for childrens well being, women and nothing but utter contempt for other cultures.

What's really funny is how terrible 'texture alignment' is in real-life. Seriously.

Yeah, especially the wallpapering at my Dad's house. Perhaps one strip of wallpaper is aligned to 'world' and the adjacent one to 'face'?

Huh!
