Hello everyone. I've got the majority of the base code written for the basic gamerules. What I'm working on currently is the new water system. Initially bluewolf wanted me to use particles, which didn't turn out so hot. Particles would really be awesome, but the problem is scale. in order to use particles for the water system would require tons of particles for it to look decent, which in hl1 means 1fps. lol, so anyway i've come up with a new system that is in the drawing board which will use "beams" to draw between constrainted invsible particles which check for impact and whatnot, think i dunno, Postal 2 and GTA Firetruck water. I'll keep ya posted.

Expect BlueWolf72 to post some screen-shots as soon as possible!
