What's your best shot?

From the picture I quoted on the last page. The avatar text is from Tupac.

I guess my joking didn't really come out as a joke, did it? Oh well,
you've changed back to your original self-with-sunglasses anyway...

that was a easy puzzle.

Yeah, I agree. But doesn't it feel good to push that washing
machine into the basket? I don't know any other game that uses
such physics system in the gameplay.

yup it does(smily screen disapeard.)

It is, because of the water shaders...

I find it too 'reddish' anyway... :razz:

Mhh, anyone knows where Cassius got that new avatar from?

Meh....sets it as desktop

Don't have any higher quality version from it. The HL2 Jpeg compressor buggers screenshots op from time to time.

Set jpeg_quality 100 in the console for slightly better pics if you haven't done so in your autoexec or whatnot or while taking screenshots - It makes the quality better than the default 90.

Alternatively you can get full quality TGA files by binding a key to "screenshot" in the console.

some of us, have avatars that fit our personalities.. some of us, need to work on it a bit yet.
/nuff said.

What? Don't you think that a picture of a young woman fending off some creepy dude with a crowbar's lecherous tendencies is very representative of him? I think it fits him to a T.

i wasn't thinking of just Cass, but no i do not.. course thats nothing new, i often chose the other side of things.

more to the point, since you brought it up.. i look at your avatar, i think of you.. it could be because you have retained it so long, but i don't think thats it.. you are not shy, you speak up when its necessary, and when you do its usually appropriate.. the avatar you use is fairly representative of that.. those particular monkey's are often quiet, till someone ventures within their sphere of influence.

other people, their avatars are almost in opposition to their real personality. no i won't point any out, because it would draw them into a conversation that they may or may not want to be in.

other change theirs weekly.. i used to myself. it took me ages to find one that suited not only my self image, but one that other should see as well. i see myself as a well of knowledge. a shallow well to be sure, but i give all 100% of it away. others see it as a broken faucet,one that needs replaced.. but still it fits their image of me. others see it as an old faucet, one leaking but not totally useless. in the end, you can look at it and see me in one form or the other, but all fit.
/ rambling

i never knew there was that much to an avatar :biggrin:

Well, my avatar is, more often than not, a picture of me.

and, thats what tends to be you.

now, you have a female, if you are going to pick a female avatar you would be better off with Professor McGonagall from the potter books. she of all the females i can currently think of, fits your personality traits.

i know that no one seems to take this community as seriously as i do, but perhaps you will sometime.

avatars should be important, but they do not need to be i suppose. i do know it is a personal thing to most i have talked to about the subject. i would advise to many not to degrade the importance, it could lead to an argument.

i also know, others cannot chose an avatar for you. if you want to be portrayed as a female Cass. go for it. but i tend to think of you as a firestorm that cleanses as it passes your region.

I just love ragdoll physics.

Ouch! That looks painful. But then, if the Combine is already dead, it wouldn't hurt very much.

Or perhaps those Combines go through special flexibility training at the Combine military school. Who knows, maybe they can even ballet.

that one is brilliant :razz:

<span style="color: limegreen;">edited by Gwil - merged (200k+ screenshots, 56k'ers!)

habboi -

Post lots of screenshots in one post, not three or four.

Take some time and effort over your spelling/grammar/general text?

It will be extremely beneficial to your time here if you do...

Stop spamming the forums - all three of those could have been in a
single post. If you find you have forgotten to say something soon after
posting, then edit it into the existing post. I've seen an insane
number of consecutive posts from you on some threads and there really
is no need for it.

well i come from forums that dont have edit so its hard ok please dont get mad

Exactly.. very rarely do we become truly "angry" on these forums.

All we are trying to tell you is that this community prides
itself on a certain level of quality and maturity - and you will do
yourself lot's of favours by posting more slowly

Put more thought into your words, expand on sentences, use commas/full stop's/capitalisation (ie a - A, b - B).

Oh and for goodness sake, if you have something to add to a post, use the edit function.. it isn't "hard" at all :razz:

Orph - I'm only removing screenshots which load on the forum pages -
remote linked shots won't be under any kind of restrictions, because
you can choose whether or not to look (and in turn allow it to
load/close the window if it's too slow) at the offending pictures.

...or if you are really obsessive-compulsive like me, use word to perfect long posts. (Makes sure there are no obvious typos that'll make you look dumb)

I just like the bump-mapping on Dog's face.

Two of them are kinda big I think, but it's because they were for a
contest where they were supposed to be unedited from screenshots
in-game.

That last shot is pretty cool. :smile:

That last shot is pretty cool. :smile:

I remember that part of the game. I was wishing that I could
sprint faster, with the helicopter on my tail (and with no effective
weapon against it).

I didn't learn that there was a sprint until after Nova Prospekt

I never used sprint. I was more of the "Blow the crap outta the stuff than walk away slowly Terminator-style."

You gotta dive over a table atleast once man!
Then try jumping through a window, in one of those wood shacks in highway17.... =D

edit/ I like screen 2 in the ones you just showed. New desktop! :biggrin:

Oh, if it fit or almost fit through a window..I put it through the
window. Especially going back through the levels with the organic
Gravity Gun and putting Combines through the windows. sinister laugh

Yeah, I liked that one...I was noclipping through the levels and found
lots of neat stuff I didn't notice previously. This guy was one of
them...but it took me a while to get a good cinematic shot since he
likes to walk around and well, sweep.

Did you notice half of breen in a box on the first map for hl2 as you can kill him and the camera screws up and shows the last level :biggrin:

I have a pic of the gman that the prima strategy guide doesnt cover...



another one of the gman exiting one of the spectacular gfx fx in the intro (black hair right)



and some nice bright lights

Nice pics and i didnt notice the gman walked there :O

I noticed the G-Man there...and was wondering why it wasn't in the
guide. There was one other area I found him too that's not in the guide.
