    Wireless Networks OR I Found A New Reason To Hang Myself

    If something used to work just fine they way it was before, and not after an upgrade then try taking your wireless kit back for a refund. It they don't accept it then a 9-iron will do the job with a bit more satisfaction. Bear in mind some houses are just more wireless-friendly than others (I...

    Wireless Networks OR I Found A New Reason To Hang Myself

    Oh the stories I could tell about those bloody wireless networks.... Well I'm assuming its only 2 computers on it? If theres more be careful that the frequency is set correctly for the wireless (or it may connect to the wrong machine) But this sounds more like an IE problem. Make sure you set...

    Vietnam man handles three decades without sleep

    Did anybody bother to check if he was sleeping with his eyes open? BTW Ptarmigan if you feel the need to sleep at an all-night LANparty then you obviously aren't fighting hard enough. :p

    Progress Update

    I think walking around the bases can be a great idea and add to the atmosphere of the game, hell even use it for plot related elements. One thing on my mind though is this: If we can walk around places does that allow out of the cockpit action (don't be seen by mr. so-and-so, excape capture by...

    The Ion Cannon coming to an orbit near you!

    True, or there wouldn't have been Terminators 2 and 3 at the cinema :D As for the Red Queen (the AI from Resident Evil) being evil? I didn't think it did anything evil at all only obeying what the situation called for. Would YOU open the doors of a virus filled bunker if doing so risked...

    The Future is Coming

    A blonde woman walks into an electronics store and after some time aproaches the front desk and points over his shoulder and says to the man serving her, "excuse me how much is that TV in the window?" The man looks her over and says to her, "It's $1000 but we don't serve blondes." Outraged the...

    First Pioneer Demo Delayed

    Well yeah, and nobody expects to get money by mugging a homeless person. That being said I still Think the Pioneer lads hard at work still get 2 thumbs up (even if the demo wil be late, that screenshots I've been loking at are worth the extra trouble)

    Multiplayer?

    I recon there should be autopilot but no time compression/speeding up. This not only eases stress on a server but also helps give players time to get to know each other more and hopefully time to plan out an attack (no leroy jenkins on my wing!) Sort of a way of helping people come together in...

    Star lancer?

    I found DooM 3 to be fun, and a little scary for the first hour. After that it became far to predictable (oooh a large stockpile of ammo to pick up? no demons here...) The original AvP was too bugy and for some gay reson never worked on my machine :( But AvP 2 and the expansion playing as the...

    Wing Commander FL v2.6

    Ok I've installed it and it shows the WC names of ships (epee, ferret etc) but none of the new models, only the original FL ones. Any ideas how to fix this?

    Criminals Get Their Comeuppance

    Screw those I want my dads gun (damn weapons laws got changed when i was young-ish so he had to surender it) Desert Eagle k-frame and modified to carry an extended clip (can't remember how much more though and the main reason he had to hand it in, some mods are just plain illegal) Still...

    Criminals Get Their Comeuppance

    Bonus points to the couple in question I say. Here in Australia the laws are pretty much "getting robbed? too bad", and more often than not if you defend yourself YOU get charged with assualt. It's crazy. One case that springs to mind that made news all over the country here was last year when...

    The Ion Cannon coming to an orbit near you!

    I agree with your point. Seems like some here take the whole purpose of the UAV out of context. The ability to scout comparitively short distances ahead of your armed forces is a good thing. Not to be mistaken with a plan to completelyreplace front line units with very expensive RC planes. Want...

    Phalanx Cockpit WIP

    Looks nice so far but also it has a real low profile. I can see those struts obstructing the players directly infront.

    View Virtual Victory Video (January 5, 2006)

    Hey AD nice work on the flight deck. I used to fool around making maps for Quake 2 and the original Half-Life so I respect the amount of time and effort you've put into this. And for what it's worth you might wanna keep an eye on this thread

    The Ion Cannon coming to an orbit near you!

    I seem to remember an important historical figure saying something along the lines of "the best way to stay at peace is to carry the biggest stick". I see nothing wrong with the idea. If it wasn't for the military R&D programs you wouldn't be discussing the issue over the internet would you...

    The Ion Cannon coming to an orbit near you!

    I'm sure the intention of orbital super-weapons is to eliminate political problems.
