    Suggestion Add GPU saver addon

    Suggestion: Very much the title. Why it would be worth adding: More often than not, you will Alt-Tab into something else while waiting the response from another person, as such is the slow paced nature of textRP. The thing is that Gmod runs quite expensively in the background, and in my...

    Johnathan Doe - Soldier Boy

    "Both of ya are dismissed outta here. Go before it all gets any uglier!" I didn't actually lay low, I simply joined a greater cause than guarding a lost coastline. Lambda's been kind enough to give a good new gun for this moment. Is this how a S.E.A.L. felt like? Got fast tracked into some...

    HL2RP² Character Epilogues

    Johnathan Doe, self-proclaimed callsign Juliet-Delta. An unfortunate name, and a mildly unfortunate existence started just before the Combine. He thought of himself as no Hero, no Warrior, just as an expendable soldier all the time. Out of his own will to make a difference, he fought the...

    HL2RP² Character Epilogues

    Only half a year has passed when he appeared to paint a canvas red, and only half a year has alike passed when he disappeared with the brush behind... VICE-2, or to himself Jack Williams, the so called Jack of Hearts on former Berlin, City 07. A selfish jackass who killed his very future and...

    Thank You At The End Of The Universe| HL2RP²

    At least we got an ending. Good enough for me. Good shit from some of you, lads... And, yes... I may make a poster or two if I have the time for it. Expect some good stuff soon ;)

    Jack of Hearts | VICE-2

    A bit more than a year has passed ever since I took the role of VICE-2. I consider him quite unique between my characters as it was the first time I played an objective antagonist character, a concept I reiterated upon many times while learning to be a compelling bad guy... And my first...

    Serious Could you still see yourself roleplaying in later life?

    An interesting question. My simple answer is probably. So I will most likely continue for a few years as long as I can have some free time for it. I am one year into this kinda hobby and I have met most of the people I talk to online. Something about RP to me is very compelling. You are an...

    server dead?

    I am barely on to at times to advance some interesting arc for some friends' characters. Otherwise I really have no personal reason to be on, especially if the map disallows me from anything else than mere dialogue. May be kinda sad to see those numbers, but nothing I can do to it (nor want...

    the curse of stasiland CUtlLinkedList overflow! (exhausted index range) (x99999999)

    Adding on my own, had this in i17_betastyle manp for a while until the last day, somehow. It also happens here (and even on fog version), and is very annoying. So far nothing I made has been a concrete solution, it just fixes itself at random with no pattern on how it goes. The only...

    Suggestion allow voice comms again

    I only got on VCs to hang out with the lads in CMB server (which is fine). Hell, a few good lads I know are known to me due to discussing things in VC especially when I was just writing up the poems for my cop. Big but! I made the rules clear on myself to not use it in the middle of RP. When I...

    Johnathan Doe - Soldier Boy

    "I whisper for important intel. You whisper for petty gossip." A good soldier is an open and a closed book, keeping no secrets but also all the secrets. All for the sake of communication, being effective and having operational security. Now, we got the exact opposite. It ain't a city, we ain't...

    Favorite Moments Of Year 1

    Hmmm.... I have seen ups and downs as a new player for HL2RP. But Asheville was very much peak in terms of server and map, plus at least a slight hint of an overarching story. It was a genuinely fun time for defining characters and possible stories, honestly. Naturally, my bias will go into...

    Suggestion Add Performant Render addon

    Well, that is kind of a bummer. Expected more from a supposedly fast scripting language... Maybe in a new branch of Source... Or we should make better optimized maps in the best case. Still, will watch this addon and use it in my future propbuild posters, since I like going overboard and want...

    Suggestion Add Performant Render addon

    As I pointed out, I see a few bugs (that happened mostly with me fiddling with the commands) that were more annoying than actual exploits. The script is very much clientside only, if folders can't lie. So I probably wouldn't worry about potential backdoors onto the server. I also doubt a lot it...

    Suggestion Add Performant Render addon

    Suggestion: title above Why it would be worth adding: So, what is Gmod's highest clientside lag source? Propbuilds! Yes, they look good; but there is too much more than necessary being rendered at the frame, making the lowest end PCs that normally run the game at 40-60 fps would have 10 or...
