Hey there, I'm an amateur mapper and modder who goes by Kaith and Tajarnia. I've created quite a variety of maps, re-skins, textures, etc - most of which never see the internet. I've always had a fascination with computers, and taught myself to program when I was 13 using internet tutorials. These days, most of the work I do on the mod scene is in mapping - something I picked up during a youthful fascination with Morrowind. As of late, I've taken a liking to the Source engine, and have released three maps to the internet. My perfectionism ensures a very long and painful development process, but I've yet to release a poorly-reviewed map so perhaps the tedium is worth it. Thanks for reading about me (you crazy stalker), hope to see you around.

You're right JB, I would kill myself to see this. :)

I never go anywhere without my Laminated Polycarbonate. You just never know when you'll need a portable transparent bulletproof screen.

Zombie panic has certainly thrived under you and Tats. It's a shame to see you go, but good luck with your future endeavors!

"Also I would like to point out that we will be releasing the FGD early which includes our beacon information so mappers can update their existing and in progress maps."

I <3 you guys. :P
Now I can include beacons so people won't get lost in zpo_shaun.

It looks fantastic. I don't really mind if Robert uses a slightly lighter atmosphere near the beginning (especially since it looks so great). However, the end should definitely be completely heart-wrenchingly desolate.

That looks absolutely amazing. This is one of my favourite single player mods of all time, and to see it presented in such an amazing fashion is fantastic. That was my only qualm with the original. The voice acting and musical score was superb, but the mapping had a few that sorta broke the immersion. I found that understandable given that it was such an ambitious project, but you seem to be able to make a truly remarkable contribution to an already fantastic mod. I'm looking forward to seeing your progress. Best of luck.

While I remain rather skepical (City 17 being controlled by Black Mesa Security?) about this mod, I'm happy to give it a chance. Looking at the screenies you've given, I think I might play it just for the retro appeal of the original Half-Life. Throwing in outdated models and textures into a new game, while initially sounding insane, might actually appeal to me. Best of luck! =)

All in all a very professional looking mod. I'm awed by the level of design that went into the maps and the gameplay is marvellous. It was a lot more strategic than I had expected. Work as a team, or die.

Erm yes. Every Source game is.

I'm running Vista 64 and I haven't encountered any problems whatsoever. So download it and go kick some butt! :D

Anyone else notice that there are 3 Whiteys in this picture. :P Hardcore is going to be a bit... hardcore.

Kaith - - 23 comments @ L4D2 Boycott Continues

At the beginning I had a bit of sympathy for the boycotters. I read everything they wrote, and the quick sequel release is a bit of a blemish on Valve's pretty much flawless track record. But, I think they ought to cut them a bit of slack. I mean, a boycott? It's a bit of an overreaction. So they're releasing a new game, and they don't have every ounce of content that you wanted yet. I favour those who adopt a "wait and see" approach rather than those who jump on the resistance bandwagon without giving Valve a chance to show that they still mean to honour their commitments.

It seems not a lot of people are playing. It tends to be more of a "get your friends together and play" thing, since games only have 4 people. I'm still interested in checking out this mod though, even if I haven't found any servers with any decent number of players yet. It'd be cool if people formed teams and had tournaments though. I need to badger my friends to get this mod...

So far it's looking like it's going to turn out to be a great mod. They've got a lot of high expectations to meet, which (judging from the professionalism of the content released) I expect them to not only meet, but exceed. Good luck to the devs as they go through to see the fruits of their labours!

It was a pleasant way to spend 40 minutes (download included). Check out all the different endings, play it through again for fun. All in all, a nice break from adrenaline-pumped FPS mods.

From what I understand, this gun is simply a punishment for players joining the server after the zombie is picked, in which case you start with the PPK and the keyboayd. Other than that, you might find one lying around somewhere on the map. It can still be handy as a backup firearm. :)

You don't actually need half life 2 to play Zombie Panic! Source. All you need is any source game. :)

Beautiful and haunting. It is important to always fall with your eyes open.

I'm enjoying the new barricade system. Yes, there are a few moronic teammates who will break a barricade, whether by accident or intention. However, admins usually make short work of them. All in all the new system adds a great new dynamic. I like it. :)

I'm impressed. I've never seen any corporation support its modding community as much as Valve has. I'm looking forward to being a part of it.
