There needs to be another option for yes, I don't think Steam sucks, its great (most of the time) it only sucks offline

(and you can edit the poll by editing your post, i believe.)

Wouldn't editing the poll now be a bit havoc-wrought by the voters, or does it simply reset it & allow us to re-vote??

As to the skybox thing, there are a few good ones... but primarily it is horrible; especially when the skybox & actual map setups make it look like there are a lot of places to walk around, and suddenly an invisible wall smacks you in the face...

If there is a skybox; I like being able to reach the sky without running into invisible walls (this concerning any mod, not only MSC; mods like CS:S or normal CS with low gravity & invisible walls left & right).

I've no clue what this guy is bitching about, this game has more skyboxes than any mod I've seen...

Downloading Frozen Summit (ms_snow) from the usual place might also be a good idea.

Yer sky boxes are in msc/gfx/env, I suggest you get something that can view TGA's like irfanview if yer going to start picking out skyboxes or adding your own.

J-M already made a tutorial or something concerning skyboxes, didn't he?? Or did he simply offer to make one?? I know he made a thread concerning them; so you should probably PM him or something for this type of help.

lol yea he said he'd make 1 but to my mind he never did
i liked those custom ones that crow made but i didn't know how to download them and i didn't know the names of them either :?
