If they really want to stay true to the series, then seeing as all the classic episodes had giant, clinking, flashy computers with absolutely no graphical interface and a button for every task to perform, and this film will be set before then, their computers are really going to have to be a hunk of junk.
I would think so. The program is very well known in the HL development community as it is the only way to extract resources for mapping, modeling and other customizations. The fact that it can be used to rip CZ is also quite well known.
I this is their method of preventing pirated software then god help them. A few months ago I wrote a piece of software called GCFScape to extract resources from Steam Game Content Cache files with nothing but good intentions. Ironically it can be used to extract CS Condition Zero and install it as a third party MOD. I'm still surprised they haven't taken measures to prevent this. Good work Valve...
Why is everyone so concerned with searching for files these days? I honestly don't understand why database like file systems are major features of both Mac OS X and Longhorn.
I guess it makes sense if you are talking about someone who is computer illiterate, someone who saves their files wherever the default location is and has no concept of file systems. But I don't think I've had to search for more than three files in the past year. That figure might be slightly affected by the fact that searching for files on Windows is quite slow, but if you just organize your files to start with I don't see what the problem is.

Something along the lines of this for example.

Thanks for that. :)

Another site killed by excessive /. hits. Looks like f3789b3c1be47758203f9e8a4d8c6a2a is queued to start several hundred times.
