==CAD fans rejoice==
''17th Dec 2005:'' It isn't every day one of the mist well-known comic artists in the gaming world offer to make textures for a mod. Which is probably why anyone who remembers the classic '''Rocket Jockey''' should right now be jumping to attention:
<blockquote cite="http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/news.php?i=938">"In fact, now that I think about it, if some independant mod team out there were to tackle this project, were to bring an updated Rocket Jockey to the scene using, say, the HL2 engine, well... I'd have to volunteer to help do the texture work." [http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/news.php?i=938]</blockquote>
Only one question now: any takers?

==''Scaling the Cabal: Valve's Design Process for Creating Half-Life 2''==
''4 Dec 2005'': Last month Valve wrote a piece for Game Developer Magazine, ''Scaling the Cabal'' [http://www.gdmag.com/archive/nov05.htm]. The article covers their unusual system of several tight-knit 'cabal' groups each concentrating on their chunk of the game, rather than the standard system of each developer working on a wide area over the course of development. It also describes the ways in which they overcome the problems cabals present, and how the system changed from Half-Life 1 to 2. A fascinating read, especially having used the Source mod tools.
