Most of the sites on the webring have either been closed or stopped updating. I've listed the link on the chance that some might re-open or visitors may want to explore the old sites anyway.
"The easiest way to play the best action games on the internet such as Quake 2, Unreal, Half-Life, Tribes, Starsiege and Jazz Jackrabbit 2. WON.net has the best tools such as Game Detector, WONswap, Insider's Guides and WONchat to make your game experience awesome."
Note that Won.net no longer supports the Silencer game.
The original Silencer user's Guide in HTML format.
"Half-Life combines great storytelling in the tradition of Stephen King with intense action and advanced technology to create a frighteningly realistic world where players need to think smart to survive. Half-Life has won more than 50 Game of the Year awards from publications around the world, and was named 'Best PC Game Ever' in PC Gamer (November 1999)."
The official Half-Life website. Contains the usual self-congratulatory hype, but also has some good links and multimedia. For those of you who don't already know what the Half-Life engine is going to do to Silencer, I suggest checking out their free game demo.
An extensive Half-Life resource, tons of links and news on the Half-Life game. Frankly I'm a bit jealous of all the info they have. But maybe that'll change once the Silencer Mod gets closer to completion.
"A Half-Life Player Model Center packed full of reviews on every player model released. Got a player model we don't have? Send it in!..."
I keep mentioning that SilentDemon and his Mod team need help building models for the Silencer Mod. Well, here's a good starting point for those of you interested in knowing what that means, and how you might actually go about building models in the first place.
"Anyone who slaps a 'this page is best viewed with Browser X' label on a Web page appears to be yearning for the bad old days, before the Web, when you had very little chance of reading a document written on another computer, another word processor, or another network."
This is a good starting point for those interested in making accessible web-pages. There are many resources including design guides, CSS and HTML references, and of course campaign graphics for people who want to support the campaign.
"Netscape is fulfilling its promise to deliver a new browser that leads the industry in standards compliance and can run across a wide variety of platforms from traditional PC desktops to new computing devices. Netscape Gecko, the engine that powers Netscape 6, has the best standards support of any browser engine available. It supports more Web standards, more deeply, more consistently across platforms and devices than any other browser engine in history."
I don't condone web-pages that insist on limiting viewers based on their choice of browser. Nevertheless, Netscape 6 is the first fully standards compliant browser to hit the web. Until other browser's follow suit, I think using Netscape is probably the easiest way to show support for an internet everyone can use.
"DesktopDollars.com is a new company that pays its members whenever they are connected to the internet. You could be surfing the net or typing a document. As long as you’re connected to the net, YOU’LL GET PAID. You can join now for FREE and it takes about 2 minutes."
Does what it says. Nice that they don't pester you to do a lot, run the ad bar when you're online and hit a continue button every half-hour or so. If you're into these things, check it out, maybe tell them [Viscia] sent you to help me cover school bills.
