    I guess they don't let you post your own, do they? They have to be "officially released"?

    Because otherwise, you would have given us screenies already, right? RIGHT!?! GRRRRAAAAAAAAGHGHG!!!!!

    I have no screenshots from this weekend. I may be able to get some from Flay or the testers.

    then u'd have trouble shooting. maybe someone could write an alias or whatever so that it'd do booth. then we'd get some good action scenes <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    thats an easy script to write, im just wondering if that would make it lag or something...... hmmmmm

    bind mouse1 "attack+; (command for screenshot)"

    thats it

    That would make it laggy as hell.
    Whenever you hit the screenshot button you lag for a short time, cause HL is writing the screen as a .bmp file on the harddrive. So for about half a second you can't play.

    Now imagine how that would do in game when you bind it to the fire button.

    actually it would be along the lines of "+attack;wait;screenshot;wait;-attack".

    You can show them to Flayra and get his "seal of approval."  That's what I'm going to do once I get a collection of decent shots.
