This has to be a regionalism because there're strictly identical to me, eg. in "Un train." /œ̃tʁɛ̃/ I say the two vowels exactly the same way. After a cursory search it seems my Pa…

Thanks, that's way more useful to me. Allow me to contribute: > Magistral: Magist(rate) + stral? Mag(nificent) + stral? Nobody knows. That's just French for "masterful" or a way to…

While lighting is important, not using halflife.wad and going above the original budget of 500 polys per "scene" is what makes modern works look much better. Most of the original t…

The author did not want to use real addresses and was not aware of the 192.0.2.0/24, 198.51.100.0/24, and 203.0.113.0/24 ranges specified in RFC 5737 - IPv4 Address Blocks Reserved…

Looks composited to me, look at the odd wobble of the picture overlapping the Gonarch, that's not present in the original video.

I've been using Hammer since the Worldcraft 3 days, it took less than an hour of using TrenchBroom to know I'll never go back to Hammer or JACK. It just works. The overall modellin…

0.48 is not even released yet (still a RC) you'll have to wait a bit more for 0.49. There's nothing preventing you from building it yourself though, the master branch is stable and…

They are. We caught "community builders" making disingenuous posts trying to pass reposted/translated content as OC to generate engagement. After getting caught doing so with their…

No need to worry, it's already happening. While I have not withdrawn anything (yet?), I stopped publishing new code to GitHub. I can't be the only one.

No. The biggest improvement Source saw was in Source 2 with PBR. There's mention of raytracing in Source 2 [1] but I don't think anything was released. [1]: https://github.com/Stea…

I've never heard a single good thing about Azure, and now that I have to work with it I understand why. The most egregious thing (for now) was an Auto Scale failure. For an entire …
