Antlion Farm HL2

Half Life,HL2,Portal and Portal 2 have consumed much of my time.

You can check out my Portal2 workshop files here.

Yeah, but I assume that's a version of Worldcraft, since they bought Worldcraft for HL1 from Ben Morris and brought him down to program it to suit their needs.

AFAIK it was the tool they used for HL2 and Portal as well, though it might have had a different name.

Gonna haveta fire up HL2 and play through again, I don't remember this scene AT ALL.

Essentially yes. The two barriers in 98 were less RAM and no ability to address more than 4GB of it (simplifying here).

In theory, a modern machine with a 64bit processor and a bunch of RAM could load this entire map, especially at the comparatively low detail/texture level of the original HL.

Of course, the engine would need to be written as a 64bit app. I believe Source (aka HL2 engine) has been upgraded to support 64bit, but I doubt the HL1 goldsrc engine has.

If we, the people, were smart, we'd stop crap like the new XBox by simply not buying it. Unfortunately we're happy to bend over and spread our cheeks for the privilege to pay to be allowed to play the newest Halo game as long as they, the corporations, think we should.
I still remember how upset people were over Steam and their online activation for HL2. It's standard practice now.

HL2 VR mod does this exact same thing with the Razer Hydra!

You can't destroy things with a portal gun (2:13); objects leave portals at the same angle they enter, so the monster's final shot (4:00) would have come out the blue portal either almost straight up in the air or dangerously close to Gordon and Chell; and portals shot onto horizontal surfaces always point towards the shooter, but Chell's last one points 90° to the wall rather than towards her.

These are important concepts to learn in the game, so this doesn't fit.>> ^ant:

Fun, but they got the properties of the portal gun wrong. Dunno about HL2.

I love that they included a dim-witted AI friendly that wonders into the path of a bolt after it's been fired. *THAT'S* some classic HL2.

Crossbows spark when you fire them?
The HL2 crossbow fires lengths of rebar which have an electrical current run through them to heat them red-hot while waiting to be fired.

Wow, for some reason I felt like firing up HL2 and episodes last night to play the beginnings and some of my favorite parts, then today this is the first video I see.
