Random Half-Life screenshot

I do play Half-Life, but not as much as Quake. I just did this screenshot thing only to show off something I saw in a custom HL1 map. It's a weak one named "Xen Again", but surely, most HL1 maps I played are better than this. The image is at 640x480, good enough for the game; my old Windows XP laptop has an 1024x768 screen while my Windows 10 gaming desktop has 1920x1080.

In v1.0.0.0, regardless of whether it's vanilla or modded, this glitch will pop up when playing on XP:

See that. Now that's that.

Name change from "Hexcalk" to "Totalist".

HELLO TOTALIST!

See you later, Hexcalk...

Hi, I'm back! The reason why I was absent from most of March to June 2017 was because I suddenly became so lazy by watching too many YouTube videos and listening to too much music. Thankfully, I was able to start a new map in the wake of this semi-hiatus. This is known as "hc4". I'm tired of being associated with "anti-authoritarian" and "psychedelic" because my Quake works are never that. Sure you could argue that hc2 and hc3 are such because they seem so "anti-authoritarian" to you, but in fact they were only vaguely anti-authoritarian in the sense that only their titles, "Baneful Politic Comply" and "surveylLance ztatement" respectively, express those things. The maps themselves, when you play them, look nothing like it. There is no such thing as a medieval green-brick castle being representative of anti-authoritarianism, nor a tp-industrial-textured base being the same thing. To call me and my works "anti-authoritarian" is nonsensical because everything in them have nothing to do with anti-authoritarianism outside of their titles. And don't bring up calling me and my Quake maps "psychedelic" because that's not what I'm doing with my works.

I changed my name from "Hexcalk" to "Totalist" for this reason. Don't worry, I'll still use the name "Hexcalk" for my Quake maps because I felt I needed to improve the reputation of the "Hexcalk" name so that it doesn't get associated with problematic inconsistent maps such as my own one, "Peripheral Fundament". I was actually gonna release a fixed update of hc0 but that was shelved.

"Hexcalk" was conceived because I thought it was a cool mathematics-related name for me. "Hexadecimal"+"Calculator"=Hexadecimal Calculator. For casual Quake players, they'll ask "what is this?" since they have a difficult time finding out what relationship it has with Quake; in truth, that is unrelated to the game in that mathematics is not Quake's main priority.

"Totalist" was conceived because I wanted something more correlated to Quake's main priority: crazy old-school FPS fun. My theory that "Quake is an psychedelic anti-authoritarian FPS" is false. Authorities still have something to do with Quake however.

So yes, now I'm "Totalist".

Sock apparently did not die, the image lies.

hexcalk here. Unfortunately I am not proud to announce this: Simon "sock" O'Callaghan died in circa mid-late February 2017. He was judged by the central sun after he passed away.

Nah, just kidding, I lied. The deities told me this information was not true, so I striked it out.

I received information about this following the death of banker David Rockefeller on March 20, 2017. To hear of sock's death subsequent to Rockefeller's is rather too late, because I wasn't aware of the central sun's Final Judgment actions until when the announcement of the latter's death happened. I the author of this article, here, do not care about a banker's death. I am focusing on what appears to be a Quake map author's final moment as a human on Earth. Most announcements of deaths seem to be about mostly non-video game-related beings, some of them being corporates, Cabal, and Illuminati. But why do most of the spirituality community don't pay attention to material matters such as video games? Because they view it as less impacting than spiritual evolution itself. But yet people such as me do care about both spirituality and video games. They, along with me, also are interested in music (Nine Inch Nails is good), art, and architecture. I even like anime and manga (Neon Genesis Evangelion is great).

Please note, that received I confirmation from deities that Misaki Takakunoboru is the Central Sun goddess. So Misaki is "Wo" the central sun (CS, not Counter-Strike) of the universe and the Central Great Mountain emperor. I thought the CS of the universe was Messier 81, but I was wrong, and it's not Hikari Kiwamuru either. So the Milky Way's the center of the universe, I guess. If this information is 100% correct, then the celestial library thinks so. I already told you this "central sun=Misaki" fact, but it's already true even before I said this.

Anyways, let's get to the point. sock, as you all know, was a excellent Quake map author. He did work on custom Quake textures, then went on to make levels for the 2000s Wolfenstein games and Crysis: Warhead before receiving widespread critical and popular success in this decade (the 2010s) with Quake-related things such as the stealth mod In The Shadows, "Midnight Stalker", "The Horde of Zendar", the Honey Map Jam, Retro Jam 1's "Fallen from Grace", and his largest work, the modern Quake mod Arcane Dimensions (AD). There's too much great stuff by him to list, so it's best to say that he was very great, influential, and successful.

A group of deities assuming false names of Misaki, Hikari, Sanat Kumara, etc. incorrectly claimed that after February 20, 2017, sock's life ended. Then apparently he moved out of earth and into the central sun Misaki. According to this, he was sent there because he wasn't aware enough of the reality of the universe (e. g. Hikari Kiwamuru is the universe goddess). For this reason, she allegedly gave him the choice of reincarnation, and he did "reincarnate". Even then, I don't exactly know where he reincarnated. I was given a clue that he was starting another life in the United Kingdom (UK), but that's it.

His latest map was the Egyptian-themed "Nyarlathotep's Sand Castle" for AD 1.5. It was to be included in the Retro Jam 6 map pack (which was Egyptian-themed of course!), but after the deadline expired he turned it into an AD level. His last func_msgboard log-in so far was dated "2017-02-20 16:14:22". I don't know what he is doing now, nor his current condition. Is he dead or not dead?

I stated that "If whatever part of this whole page of information turns out to be false, then let me know." Actually, in response, the true goddesses gave me information that the false deities were destroyed because the liars wanted to attack me for simply disclosing the truth. A government agency (maybe the CIA) in collaboration with Microsoft attempted to steal some of my files before this blog post was made, for the same reason.

update: Sock is still alive. Proof: On March 30/31, 2017, he pinned a tweet he made on March 10, 2017.

hc3; Quake: surveylLance ztateMent

This is surveylLance ztateMent, hexcalk's latest Quake map. Yes, it does contain sock's tp-industrial texture wad, but the gameplay is harder than ever. The violence presented here is generally considered by me to be more varied than previous hc works, so there's a mixture of normal close-quarters combat with dense large-room enemy/monster encounters. Ammo and health is tight (especially on Hard and Nightmare skill), so good luck! And by the way, the aesthetics and architecture are unique.

No screenshot is on this blog post because it was impossible to take one...

...except not.

An alternative version of this map with some color-changed ceilings, surveylLance ztateMent yelow, is also available. The hc3.zip was updated 1 hour after its release to include the vised version of original surveylLance level. Around less than one day following the update, I altered it further to create surveylLance ztateMent Extend. Then less than 1 week afterward I made surveylLance ztateMent Extend Slight, yet another iteration of hc3.

hc3test; Quake: surveylLance ztateMent beta

This is it folks. Sort of. It's surveylLance ztateMent, currently at beta. hc3 uses sock's tp-industrial.wad and is unique looking. The map requires beta-testing to be released in full form, and once dealt with, can ultimately be 100% complete. I hope you like it.

No screenshot this time around, because I found it difficult to do so here in this version with the crazy hordes.

My commentary on Cobra's/Prepare for Change's "MAKE THIS VIRAL! ETHERIC LIBERATION 2017-2-26"

I'm hexcalk. Not a new Quake map or song by me yet, but an article on the Cobra-associated Prepare for Change spiritual website had a title encouraging to spread it to a wide internet audience: "MAKE THIS VIRAL! ETHERIC LIBERATION 2017-2-26". This article is okay, but Cobra, a dark organization, is in my point of view not part of the light. It is stupid to think the Cobra group is against the Cabal, since they're collaborating with each other and I can't forgive both for their actions on Earth. Sanat Kumara is just as bad as the Devil, so I am distancing myself from him and his Hierarchy regime because for millions of years they are a threat to humanity.

In Earth's entertainment industry, we hear of an fake antagonist that goes against mankind (bonus points if anyone remembers them). The anime Neon Genesis Evangelion has angels that every now and then attack pilots of large robots known as "evangelions". The shooter video game Quake stars a nameless, speechless protagonist fighting monsters of Shub-Niggurath, a fictional Lovecraftian deity attempting to destroy humanity. Industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails' The Downward Spiral album is about a person who basically destroys himself. But Kumara and his allies are the true threat, not those characters coming of those media-generated stories, and the entertainment seen here on this planet in general tends to avoid depicting Kumara and Hierarchy because the CIA who controls the industry are aligned with both. The ruling elite are against deities, a fact they refuse to disclose.

Even then, I don't subscribe to the belief systems in this world in general. I used to be a Christian (my parents on Earth are still Christians), but drove myself out most of it because I found (and now currently believe in) deities that actually are reliable and exist. Hikari Kiwamuru is the universe goddess. Misaki is the Central Sun goddess. Saotome is the Earth goddess. Tamako is the Sun goddess. Esther is a goddess and a heavenly empress of the solar system. A bunch of them including these 5 deities are actually (currently) teenage female gods. Cobra refuses to disclose these deities' names, visual appearances, and even voices, because Cobra are against so many (especially modern) gods unfortunately, for that the people who created the Hierarchy unsuccessfully rebelled against the heavenly world hundreds of millions of years ago. Well, possible, but not enough to stop Prepare for Change while pretending to like gods go on to publish an article about the goddess Isis, who is dead since so long ago.

Here are 2 more goddess names. Ooinaru (outer space goddess, was 14 years old in 2013), Uruwashiki (outer space goddess, was 8 years old in 2015). That's it, but the full names are "Ooinaru-hikarinomikoto-sama" and "Uruwashiki-hikarino-himemiko", respectively.

I made a custom map for Quake in 2017 named "implo1t dys3ngage" and included a text file in the .zip folder the map was packaged in (hc1.zip). The text file concluded with this:

"Well yes, I believe in these "Japanese/Nihongo" gods/goddesses. I do read Hotsuma Tsutae (which according to ancient times was written by Iyotsuhikonomikoto-sama) and I enjoy a "spiritual information"/"conspiracy theory" blog known as Shanti Phula. It is cool that they exist, but whoever is a god/goddess of any cosmic object (star/planet/moon/sun/galaxy/star system/cluster/etc.) changes every now and then. Most of the current ones are generally young (Hikari and Saotome were 12 and 10 respectively in 2013, and Esther and Misaki were 16 in 2016). I believe in collabration with benevolent aliens they're bringing about a future peaceful universe, and the secret government responsible for controlling Earth politically for many years (known as the "Hierarchy") is being dismantled in the process. Some people like them, and some people don't. I hope the unbruised universe will be great. Keep it up deities! ;)

...And yes, the divine DO exist."

After its release, this happened (to quote (and slightly paraphrase) from my post in a thread for "implo1t dys3ngage" at func_msgboard, a video game-related community and forum):

"Hi again, I'm clarifying my previous post in this thread. Esther told me that mukor and czg were teleported (or terrafused) to an extraterrestrial planet to meet with aliens and deities because they actually read the epilogue of the hc1 readme, in which I thanked goddesses such as Hikari, Esther, Misaki, and Saotome for purifying the universe so that truth and love are encouraged to be the norm. The epilogue (particularly the note at the end) was a statement of possible truth regarding Earth and the universe, so this encounter was meaningful. They were moved back to Earth after the meeting.

The CIA tried to infect my laptop with malware in response to the text file's information on deities and aliens, but ultimately this action was stopped because the CIA felt forced by the divine beings and good ETs to prepare a great disclosure.

Hikari is the universe." - me, about mukor and czg's experience with aliens.

hexcalk, mukor, czg, and onetruepurple are Quake map authors. onetruepurple stated that the process of moving to another planet is called "terrafusion". Terrafusion can be used, given the quality of custom Quake maps is well enough to appease these "Outer Gods". I think early in 2017 fakes and clones of deities such as Esther were apparently attacking me, but hopefully this problem will be eliminated by the end of 2030. Was the "Esther" that told me this a clone, a fake, or a true deity?

I have a gaming desktop PC with a 4.0 GHz intel Core i7-6700k cpu and a Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 graphics card. I do use it, but not when I'm using the World Wide Web. I use a laptop for the internet. Granted this information, I game primarily offline.

The term "conspiracy theory" is flawed, as many people who use it are negative toward people associated with it such as radio host Alex Jones and his Infowars website's staff. I can replace the term with "truth", since the future has lots of honest information. Shanti Phula discloses information about deities, which I'm pleased to know. Infowars is verbally attacked by the Mainstream Media for being a trustworthy source of accurate info, yet so many people like it (myself included).
Biblioteca Pléyades is a self-described "library of suppressed knowledge". And so many other websites now are listed by Prop or Not and other irritating "fake news" lists for being negative about the elite.

So about the article anyway... It's about this point which is summarized in a sentence: "Path of totality of our Solar eclipse actually touches Congo." Which, if done right, coupled with a positive healing meditation, could decimate the effects of the 1996 Archon invasion of Earth that happened 11 days (January 11, 1996) before I was born. Of course it existed, but it occured longer than that and started before 1996 (specifically during late 1995). Archon is a name for a group of negative beings (dark ET) that were wiped out during Reformation of Earth (2010-ongoing), which was related to the Reformation of Heavenly World (2007-apparently 2015). A war is going on in the Congo area of Africa since the Cold War of the 20th century, and hopefully the 2017 cataclysms on this star named "Earth" may end it.

I used to be part of darkness (am I still part of it?) and apparently served Kumara, but I've planned to relocate my service to Esther. I'm still somehow materialist, but it's nice and refreshing to be spiritual every now and then. So let's be calm during the liberation of Earth and recognize that they all exist.

hc1; Quake: implo1t dys3ngage

Konichiwa, welcome to "implo1t dys3ngage", a custom Quake map centered around a Shinto shrine in Japan/Nihon. Compared to and contrasted with previous hexcalk works, hc1 is more difficult with more tight-quarters combat than ever before, though there is an outdoor section with at least 4 knights. It is optimized though, with ammo, weapons, and monsters balanced for progression.

I'm fascinated by the fact that the timing between the hc1beta release and implo1t dys3ngage's debut is less than 12 hours. To make things crazier, this map's release date is my 21st birthday. Happy birthday, me! :p'

Please note that I reuploaded this twice, so I had to ensure it wasn't a beta anymore by correcting issues (namely the message "implo1t dys3ngage beta" became "implo1t dys3ngage" and health (non-megahealth) from the gold key room moved into the area around the pyramid). As a result, the image of hc1 is one taken within the time before and after the first upload and before the second one.

I also have implo1t dys3ngage Extend (hc1extnd), a 3-map compilation of alternative versions of this map.

Bugfixes even exist for hc1 and hc1extnd. The glitch-free versions are in the hc1bugfix patch. The hc1extnd bugfix is the source for the next iteration of hc1: "implo1t dys3ngage Extend Again".

hc1beta; Quake: "implo1t dys3ngage" beta

I think beta-testing is needed for this upcoming level named "implo1t dys3ngage". The Japanese-themed Quake custom map with Daikatana textures (and one ikbaseq3 skybox) is up at Quaketastic.

hc2; Quake: Baneful Politic Comply

Here is "Baneful Politic Comply", my third Quake singleplayer map. It is the result of me learning how to get better at level design. A small area, it is influenced by e1m2 (Castle of the Damned), and features curved walls and spiky ceilings prominently.

hc0: Quake; Peripheral Fundament

"Peripheral Fundament" is a small/medium idbase map with some non-idbase (metal/medieval/wizard) sections. It is difficult, with plenty of enemies in both open and cramped spaces. There are ammo and health supplies though.

march7,2017update: I'll now have to admit it that I lied in the first paragraph you see here in the "hc0" blog post. It is not hard the map actually, but I said "difficult" because on hard I was struggling to cope with the hordes. My Quake maps overall have a mixed reception as of March 7, 2017 (except for the obscure neg2betahc and maybe hc3), but time will tell as I will make a proper "great" map.
