I see some of you guys posting on the Unknown Worlds forum. WASAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP.

Browsing through 'new' posts, there is one thread that was created in 2003. SEVEN YEARS AGO! HOLY INFLAMED BUDDHA ON A SEATLESS UNICYCLE BATMAN.

Where are y'all at? In life? In game? How has the wicked and arbritrary seas of life treated you? Well? Ill?

So who's played it? Is LB considering making a server for it (ironically, there are no linux server binaries, yet)?

IT's a pretty awesome game, all teamworky, no spam, no crazy Medic winning the entire fricking game because he spent 5 hours on a lan server perfecting a conc jump. Not that there is anything wrong with that, just that I don't play those sorts of games.

You totally need teamwork and communication, and really really need to work in teams *gasp*, much more than in TFC or FF.

Thoughts? :D

I semi-promise!

Some schmucks at someplace called the NY Times is saying this is better than all the SW prequels. Hrm, that's not saying much, but then again, the space opera genre has been sadly missrepresented in theatres as of late.

I'm really curious to see what non-Firefly fanatics think of the movie, as anything I have to say about it is totally suspect.

Off Topic / Awesome Multiplayer Games
« on: August 04, 2005, 11:00:43 AM »
This is just a list of really cool, novel (ok, some leniency here), and fun Multiplayer games out there. Add the ones you can think of with a brief description if it's obscure:
NS
SourceForts
Thievery (you know Thief? imagine it multiplayer, with players playing guards)
Air Buccanneers (slow moving cannon fun from air balloons! FUN!)
Tie Fighter (so I hear)
Falcon 3.0 (probably one of the very first MP online games on the intarweb, highly technical)
Swarm (that UT2k4 mod with top down, squad based gameplay of rines vs aliens)
Savage (well, ok, it's pretty..)
Allegiance (incredibly deep RTS/Space Flight game, CLOSE THE PIE HOLE FEWLIO!)
GuildWars (apparently squad based PvP is really nifty)
Tribes (never got into it, but ppl who like it, like it alot)
BF2 (the squads make the game much more intimate and memorable)
Hostile Intent (CS with MORE realism!)
The 500 zillion WC3 custom games
Diablo 2 (just kidding!)

Anyone here use Steam on Linux? My bro is using Fedora Core 3.0  and is having a bugger of a time running Steam. He can get it to install on WinE, it tries to connect, but seems to bork out. Anyone got clues on this?

(Ok, I'm coming clean, he's trying to play CS: Condition Zero (don't hate me!)) ;)

General / More lengthy explanation
« on: April 13, 2005, 01:50:08 PM »
So, why is it i make 3 or 4 Ips, spam shotties and welders and hmgs and bacons galore when the game is over? It's just instinct. Give the marines a few morale victories taking down some oni. And I don't _think_ i've ever said "JUST END IT NOW PLEASE". Because  I'm almost never willing to just lay down and let the aliens walk all over us. I might ask "what's the lull for?" or "Why aren't you attacking?". Because, gamewise, I really have no idea why. They have all the rts, we haven't been able to beat them back at all, and there is a 3 - 4 minute lull.

So yeah, that's my explanation for 'drawing it out' which I see more as 'giving the marines some fun after getting creamed'. It's not like I make massive farm.

On that side note, unless you (as in anyone reading this) are willing to drop your weapons and not shoot anything that comes in, try not to say "Just end it now please"; because 9/10, the same marines who say that are fighting tooth and nail to stay in the game.

Off Topic / Find the FRICKING driver!
« on: March 14, 2005, 09:54:49 PM »
So, I got this Logitech webcam,and install the QuickCam software/drivers for it.  Only problem is, that when I have too much IO stuff going on (i think), such as updating the mp3 player and messing around with kazaa, my system goes BSOD! YEARGH!!

Now it's really only a minor annoyance, but I like my system as stable as possible. So I uninstall the offending driver (it apparently is a known, unfixed issue for the driver on Win2000), and yet i STILL get the BSOD!

So my GUESS is that the driver is still around! But I can't FIND IT!

BSOD goes like this:
Stop:0x000000DB C0xc0400....
A driver has corrupted the memory management system PTEs
Address 8046d139 base at .... ntoskrnl.exe

So far, I've
-gotten ready to install the quickcam drivers, then look at the setup files it throws up, and did a search for every single .dll that shows up in the temp setup files in my system. No dice.
-updated my MB drivers
-removed all registry entries (playing with fire) that reference Logitech Cam or QuickCam
-defragged (yeah, long shot)
-used EVEREST, home edition to find the offending driver, no dice
-used whatever that cmd is to look for unsigned drivers, no dice


So, my question to all you ubar geeks of doom, what else can I do? My last resort is to format the drive and reinstall windows, but it's a bother to do so. Ideally, i can either
-find the dang DLLs causing this issue
-somehow fix the "corrupted memory management system PTEs"

Anyone know how I can do either of these? If ya do, you get a meece! Or at least get to look at one as I devour it.
