<div class="IPBDescription">Lots of new media.</div> I'm sure many of you are interested in <a href='http://www.hl-nightwatch.net' target='_blank'>Nightwatch</a>, and as many NS community types are involved in the mod, I thought I'd mention this here.

The NW Team, after a long period of silence on the media front, have released a whole bunch of cool new media, including updated weapon and character models, new level shots, and an incredibly cool Steam background image by none other than NS' own lead artist, Cory Strader.

What are you waiting for? <a href='http://www.hl-nightwatch.net' target='_blank'>Get up in that muh</a>!

    I hope everyone enjoys this media update - getting it out required many things, including an emergency installation of Internet Explorer 6 on my PC (long story), and it's probably going to hate me for that forever...

    Yes, Quaunaut, I spammed it on every forum I visit. Absolutely. Those forums would be the Natural Selection forums and the Nightwatch forums. Hmm.

    Yes indeed. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo--> I guessed that was what the picture was when I saw it. Is it just his desktop background or is it a running build of Nightwatch?

    <ProfessionalVictim> I don't know why they didn't add redundancy so the site would keep working on both until it propagated, and I think this is an absolutely terrible time for them to do this, but there's not much I can do about it.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    That would be why you can't see the site.

    This is freakin' ridiculous. No matter what month, week, day, hour, second, or nanosecond an NW update goes up, you can rest assured knowing Oktagone will find some way to destroy the site moments later. Joy.

    And that was my desktop background, though now my personal wallpaper is a combination of Starcraft: Ghost and Warcraft III (night elf box art = the pwn).

    Elven Thief, I must contact you! You like the tornadic action I dragged up here? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The server's actually still running, and it's inaccessible due to DNS issues. An IP address on its own won't be much use - it's a shared server hosting lots of different sites from the same IP address.

    You <i>can</i> still get at it, but you'll need to mess about with your 'hosts' file. This is pretty advanced, so <b>I accept no responsibility if I break your machine!</b>. Add the following lines to C:\WINDOWS\hosts, /etc/hosts or whatever your system uses:
    <!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->

    66.199.237.61  forums.hl-nightwatch.net
    <!--c2--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
    Remember to remove said lines in a few days when DNS is back again...

    Yes, Okta<b>gone</b> smells of wee. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Nightwatch is single player, isnt it?

    This sure as hell makes up for the lack of good single player mods for regular HL

    Good work on the mod

    The DNS is back up.

    I clicked on the latest level screenshots

    I almost **** my pants. I kid you not. That level design looks better than HL2's level design. Pwn.
