Alex and I are pleased to announce that MapTap 2.6.0 is now available for download and use.
Current MapTap users should get a message the first or second time the run the application telling them a new package is available. If not, just visit the MapTap page and choose between the Update (smaller download) or the full version.
Can’t believe that it’s been two weeks since the last WTH. Time flies when you are waiting for Half-Life 3 – NOT.
Let’s see what the HL community has for us in this episode.

Howdy All. Here we are with another quick “What The Headcrab” episode. I have a feeling it’s been pretty quite recently, maybe everybody is playing games, instead of making mods etc.

Firstly, let me stress: NOTHING HAS BEEN DECIDED YET.
I am posting this to get feedback on a possible change to the site.
As many of you know, originally the site covered many, many SP FPS games, maybe 20. Over time that got cut down to 15, then 10 and now we have 5. All for Half-Life and that’s perfect. In addition to creating the maps and mods posts, I also started creating lots of other types of posts; now grouped into Phillip’s Blog. These types of posts intersperse the main content – the maps and mods.
I enjoy creating these types of posts and I know that a few people enjoy reading them.

4 entries to make you sleep with the light night.
4 entries to make you shiver and shake with fear.
4 entries to have you looking over your shoulder.
4 entries to make you wish you were braver.
Play alone and in the dark – if you dare.

You find yourself in prison, but not just a regular prison, OH NO!, one in space!
All that really matters is if you can escape.
A little opportune “invasion” might help.
Good Luck.

I haven’t checked, but I am sure we have talked about monetizing mods before, in polls and general discussions on the site. And it seems that Valve is still interested in paid mods and I have to say that I am in general support of the idea.
But there seems to be other possibilities for ensuring that modders get a chance to make money and one of those is donations.
Imagine, and I must stress, I am not actively pursuing the idea, if RTSL created a system for users to donate money to some modders would you support it? Of course currently , you could contact the modder directly and ask for his or her details and send money that way, but if there was a proper system, that might make it easier for everybody.
Once Half-Life 3 releases and people start making mods for that, I’m sure Valve will instigate paid mods, but this idea is more about non-HL3 mods.
So, let’s talk about it, and see what happens.
