Nipper Interview

[CSN NewsBot]

Another post for me!



There are a lot of great mappers in the CS:Source industry and this little tidbit happens to be about NIPPER. If you have played Counter-Strike Source or even 1.6 and you don't know who NIPPER is you need to check yourself into a mental hospital. NIPPER is as famous as it comes when it comes to good quality custom mapping. NIPPER has made a lot of maps and you can check them out at NIPPERS site.



Anyway let me get to the real story. LastDinosaur posted an interview with the well-known custom map maker NIPPER on his website. It offers a lot of insight into custom map design and also tells the story behind the legendary map crazytank. So go read the interview it's a pretty good read.

Unless valve actually goes and adds the func_vehicle entity to CS:S it's not going to happen.

So sad :'( Why can't we have vehicles in CS:S? I don't mean in any offical maps, just make it available to custom mappers, so we can enjoy some jeepathon now and again. Please Santa?

It does provide a fun alternative to shooting terrorists all day. I'm also kind of disappointed at the lack of progress by many mod developers, which is probably due to the complexity of the source engine.

No source crazytank? Valve should make an official one (I think crazytank3 might be my favorite version though).

Didn't Nipper make Cars_n_Robots? That used to be a LAN favorite with my friends and me. hide_n_seek was a great LAN map too (it was easier to get everyone to play it the proper way). I haven't played much CS:S (mostly due to lack of a beefy computer/connection); didn't know he did any CS:S maps.



I also didn't know Source lacked func_vehicle! That's a fucking crime against humanity right there. >:|

i need to do that so badly
