so hey peoples its me 10badboy01 (havent posted anything in maybe a year?) i come to SEN from time to time because everyone has such interesting things to talk about on these forums. So yeah enough of my little talk, i know that there is a lot of half life 2 lovers around here and i also know that there is a lot of Canadians. I viewed this video on a mod for half life 2 where its half life 2 in Toronto and i just wanted to know if it was an accurate map of Toronto or not.In addition it looks like a very interesting mod too :P http://www.torontoconflict.com/



None.

Haha from what I saw its got accurate places (though of course most of it is too generic to recognize and there are some places with HL2 only stuff, like the big combine walls/towers). Here are some of the places I recognize:

0:06 - Haha that is the outdoor stage at the North York Civic Center that the combines are standing on
0:48 - Lol thats the subway station closest to my house, I use it all the time
1:07 - That is also outside the North York Civic Center (building in the background with the staircase), he's almost right in front of the outdoor stage
3:01 - I recognize the sign from downtown
3:09 - At the North York Civic Center again. Close to the spot the guy was at 1:07, but further from the building mentioned. You can see the seating for the outdoor stage on the right, above that the pointy gazebo thing is where i smoke sometimes :P And the building behind that is a school board building :X

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.

NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.

not the map, the editor

Symmetry -- I vaguely remember Voy doing some ACE back in the day, but I had no idea EUDs could do that kind of shit. I am very much catching up on the technology

NudeRaider -- Symmetry
Symmetry shouted: NudeRaider Is EUD editor capable of writing shit onto the player's harddrive? That seems like it would be dangerous
yeah an editor that isn't allowed to write files sounds rather pointless, so I'd assume it can. Like most other programs too btw. and yes, obviously that's dangerous, but also kinda necessary. MS introduced that virtualization for exactly that reason.

Ultraviolet -- I don't think so. I think they shut that shit down after 1.16, maybe even earlier
