What is Pongsource?
Pong as you all know was a simple video game based on ping pong.

Then many years later when video games had got a lot better graphically, a team of modders took the idea of Pong and put it in to the Quake universe. Instead of two paddles, there was two teams with the ingenious addition of weapons. The idea was still the same, get the ball into the "goal" but now you could hit the Ball with weapons. The bigger the gun, the ferther and faster the ball traveled. It was fun.

But things change and in less years than it took to get from the original Pong to Quake graphics, games have changed graphically again, to what they are now.

So here at PongSource we have decided to make our own version of Pong for the Half-life 2 universe. It has Guns, It has Goals, but most of all we think ITS FUN!!!

It's truly exciting. There's a lot of room for mappers to change objects for the goal, and.. just...
really a lot of freedom from a mapping point of view, not to mention that this game is really fun, for mappers and regular players.
There's screenies on the website.
The community right now is kind of small, but it's a lot of fun.
Truly caring nice people, if it weren't for them, I wouldn't have started to map. While I may not have released any gems yet, I'm new..
Anyway, really, check this mod out. It is tons of fun.

p.s.
Ok, there ARE textured balls and there are some balls that are meant to not be textured.
The only way to make sure you have v0.8 is to download from the www.clan-server.co.uk/pongsource website.

Oh, and the ball velocity thing..
there's different kinds of balls, 1 that's super bouncy, 1 that's very rocklike, and one that's normal (responds to the gravity gun, but cannot be picked up, like all the others).
