More Stuff

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, cause I know you guys have been just dying for me to post. My internet has been on the fritz. Lucky, I have a boring life, so nothing big happened. I did get a Xbox controller for my PC. I got it for two reasons. 1: I wanted to get Assassins Creed, and that game is really more of a joystick/gamepad sort of game, rather than a mouse and keyboard combo. 2: The place I bought if from mislabeled the product, so I got it for only twenty bucks, which is a steal if you own a Xbox, because controllers them selfs run around sixty dollars. I was thinking about buying a bunch and reselling them on eBay.

I haven't decided on which map to work on. Sense I finished Showdown, I kind have been just messing around with stuff. I'm torn between making Crisscross_V5 or making a new map. For the new map, I was thinking about making a huge city scape. Somewhere well known, like Paris or Rome. I chose those places over New York or some other city because New York would require a lot of custom textures. I have no problem making custom textures, its just that I can't incorporate them into my maps so that other people can see them. So for now guys, no hardcore porno covered maps. Sorry.

I've been thinking about getting a server so I can properly beta test my maps. Right now, I'm having to send them to people so they can beta test, and its hard to find some problems with only one person on the map. I don't think I would have a problem building the server, its just the internet line that would have to be run to my house. I called my ISP, and after being redirected a million times, finally someone told me that they would have to run a new line to my house, and that it would cost a pretty penny. So, who knows. I may just find someone else to run the server for me, like a company or something.

I talked to my two friends that want to make that mod/game. We haven't decided what engine to build it on. One wants to use the Crytec engine, cause he uses the Crysis Editor all the time. The other wants to use the Unreal/ Havoc engine. Problem is, they are really complicated, and nether of them (and me) know how to code for them. I want to use Source, because it's the easiest to mod and program. If you know of any other engines or want to put in your two cents, you know what to do. (Psst, it starts with "Com" and ends with "ments")
