Is it even possible to have modified flares that do more damage working in multiplayer using the cheat method that involves modifying you know what file? I was under the impression that going through walls worked, because it only affects the person with the modification, but damage caused by weapons...

Tangaroa

D3 controllpanel does indeed suck, dont even want to try it in Wine anyway, gamtool works passably though, and is better, whether you use windows or linux.

Tangaroa

Heh, im getting back into playing too, not that anyone really recognises me probably, well, im going to get back to online play if I can get multiplay working in cedega.

Tangaroa

Ive played in varicose veins quite a few times, enjoyed it quite a bit too. I cant aim very well with, well, pretty much any weapon, but I miss particularly often with mass driver, but still, its fun becaus ehwn you hit you can often get a kill. As for weapons, I usually aim for fusion, mass driver ...

Tangaroa

I think they are a legit part of the game, and if I can use them to nail you with some fusion blobs, you should learn to be more wary when you see a camera next time.

Tangaroa

I dont realy ever put pepper on meals at restaurants, dont realy put saldt on either.

Generaly the food doesnt need it, anyway, I can usually barely notice the difference, compared to some other spices, pepper has a rather mild, hard to notice flavour.

Tangaroa

I only use Tango.

Tangaroa

Im one new tag that has turned up in SD that only uses one tag, I always fly as Tango.

Anyway, Subway Dancer was one hell of a challenge, harder than varicose veins (which I also probably suck at, but at least Im having fun).

Will have to play it again at some point.

Tangaroa

Dont remember my first kill, It may have been in my first or second game.

Unless the movement was rolling, then it probably was half intentional.

The rolling however, was very irritating, think ive come up with a solution that will do for the meantime though.

Tangaroa

Heh thanks, yeah I am from NZ. Already said the type though, it is a "Thrustmaster Top Gun Fox 2 Pro". Had a look inside and it does look like a potentiometer, but its a rather small one with a particular shape that the rest of the top of the joystick seems to sit on. Hmm, on looking at th...

Tangaroa

Heh, I think I might have played against you today, I use the alias Tango.

Then my joystick broke.

Tangaroa

Its a Thrustmaster Top Gun Fox 2 Pro.

But thanks, will see if I can fix it, have soldering iron and solder (somewhere)and can get the other thing.

Tangaroa

WHile in burning indica, my joystick started acting oddly on the twist function which I use for rolling, When i turn it right, it works fine, when i turn it left, half the time it acts like its being turned the other way for the first instant, and half the time it works normally. I presume this is s...

Tangaroa

The only real problem with subway dancer that I have is that its a little unpretty in places, there is one spot with a procedural texture that is murder on my framerate for some unknown reason (have to turn procedural textures off for it, crappy video card, wont be getting an ew one on this computer...

Tangaroa

Well, this may be somewhat off topic, or somewhat flameworthy, but, I think that people should probably play in some new levels instead of the same ones like the several variations of varicose veins, or stadium, or subway dancer, over, and over, and over, and over again. Mostly, I see the same level...

Tangaroa

Hmm, judging by the attitude of derek smart, im not even going to buy Freespace 3 if it does come out, I refuse to help such an arrogant arsewipe "earn" money. (fat chance just one person will make a difference though, would be good if nobody bought it and someone gave the topic link to so...

Tangaroa

down for me too

Tangaroa

yep, it seems fairly good, some darker areas, not so flat looking and no irritating guided missile puzzles so far I think.

One problem though, ive placed the fuel and fuse for the star smasher ship, but i cant figure out how to open that last door, can someone please help?

Tangaroa

There is an extraction utility in D3edit, in the version I use (1.1 beta), its the Q button.

Tangaroa

There were NZ troops in east timor helping to stop the massacre, one got killed.

A family friend was also there at the embassy while the fighting was going on.

Tangaroa

THe US was not invading any other countries as far as I know while the situation in east timor was going on.

Tangaroa

Whether its logical or not, I find what is happening with the US to be extremley scary and im somewhat paranoid that the US may take over one way or another. If the US invaded iraq for apparently economical reasons, then whats stopping them from invading other places for economical reasons? They hav...

What do I need to run a descent 3 server on a machine with redhat 9?

Tangaroa

New Zealand, ISP is paradise and yep, took a while, but it works.

Tangaroa

I have the academic version of photoshop CS and it doesnt seem realy all that different from photoshop 7 so far.

But then, there might be something useful in it that I have yet to encounter.

The layer comp feature looks like it could be useful, but I have yet to use it.

Tangaroa

I had a look, it seems to have had no adverse effects on the computer.

But then this computer is updated with all he security patches (I think) and has a firewall.

Tangaroa

Weird, He should probably get the security patches for internet explorer.

I presume its not possible to contact the police or some other authority about the site who can shut it down.

Tangaroa

Well, you havnt played against me yet probably as im fairly new, but I look fowards to getting my arse kicked by you.

Tangaroa

Well, I dont make drinks with alcohol often, its too expensive, but I do things to tomato juice that would probably poision some people. Ive added salt, cardomom, vinegar, lemon juice, chilli sauce, cloves, coriander, pesto, cumin, worchester sauce, olive oil, chilli powder, garam masala and one or ...

Tangaroa

Im a newbie (obviously) and I try not to type kill, of course, sometimes it cant be avoided, homing missiles sometimes hit the wrong person. I dont think it would particulatly worry me if I was type killed, Also, when people have the keyboard logo up its an opportunity to look at the icon on their s...

Tangaroa

I got some help from suncho on PXO, it works now. thanks.

Seems like keeping it running will eat into the 2 gbs per month of ADSL quite a bit. Might only run it one night per week, or end up forking out more money for a better ADSL deal.

Tangaroa

Its seems to work fine until I try to start a game, where it gives me the error message: Error: unable to set temporary directory to "C:\PROGRAM" I have Descent 3 installed to "C:\Program Files\Descent3" could this be causing the problem and if so, how do I fix it without reinsta...

Tangaroa

Sorry for any offence caused, im not targeting christians or americans, im using this idea that people from some parts of america are inbred and making fun of the people trying to pass this law. And superficially there realy isnt all that much difference between religious extremists from what ive he...

Tangaroa

I smell inbreeding leading to chronic stupidity. The people from this area of the world are probaly as bad as your average islamic fundamentalist, except they are christian instead of islamic. Hopefully, they will continue breeding untill all thye are capable of doing is drooling, grunting and pokin...

Tangaroa

It looks awesome, can't wait to play in it.

Will be the first time ive used the phoenix cannon too, never got the full version of descent 2.

Tangaroa

Got one today and one a week or two ago.

Its got up to beagle.M now. Hopefully they will catch the bastard behind it soon.

Tangaroa

Those speakers look nice, but I dont suppose you will ship them to NZ unless I pay a lot extra. Probably be more than they are worth to get thema nd have them shipped here. Too bad there is not a video card, I need a new videocard. I already have a case with a PSU (and a crapped out motherboard, but...

Tangaroa

Yeah, but he uses an excessive amount of the guided missile puzzles, surely there are other puzzles that could be used to add a bit of variation.

Tangaroa

Yeah, he has a strange sense of what makes a good level. I found all the hiding things and guided missile puzzles boring and annoying. Its interesting making it so that all doors blow up when you shoot them for such levels, but ive found many of them unsolvable and unfun otherwise. I dont realy know...

Tangaroa

I would have to say that I quite like mine.
