Hi, I'm just letting you all know, D2X-XL runs on Vista x64. Using ATi graphic card. I just had to tweak a couple of options in the d2x.ini. I had to disable multi-threading and use the legacy render path.

Hope this helps anyone. Cheers!

Hey sarge, what if I capture the network trafic concerning Descent 3 on my gateway and pump it to the machine that's going to be dedicated?

NOTE: Haven't tried making the server on the same machine yet, not going to be at home for a while.

The Gateway computer is working on Windows XP Professional - Service Pack 1, all updates and patches done. The computer on my LAN that's going to be the dedicated server is going to have Windows 2000 Professional SP4. I can't see any incompatibilities here. As these two OS are based on the same &quo...

It says that TCP/IP protocol is unavailable, or... busy, or... not configured, or something like that. What I was trying to do is run 2 copies of the game on the same machine. One of them as a Dedicated Server, and the other one as a client conecting to the server. But this is just in case the other...

Quick and simple(?) question to experienced server admins: Is it possible to create a server behind a NAT/ICS that people on internet can join? If so, post some instructions please. The thing is, I want to host a cooperative game for some of my friends. I wouldn't need this info if it wasn't for the...

Don't they have a magnetic ion-drive? Their anti-grav field can easilly be redirected for sliding...

Good sugestion, I think I will do that. If I hear another "Give it to me baby...", I'll go nuts. 3 hours on a server and some shmuck using that taunt more that 10 times per minute - Spamming, tottaly. Let's be serious about this: it doesn't matter how funny a taunt is, when overused is get...

lol, as for me "fwording" is the same as nothing. I go through it like it's regular talking. But as incredible as it may seem, I rarelly use such language. And when I do, it means I am really mad at something or the pressure just went over the scale. And when I really feel the need for it ...

I can't say the same... because I just damaged mine yesterday.

Gonna try repair it though, if not... then I must mouselook (blargh... icky taste in my mouth.) for a few time until I get the money to buy a decent one.

Bettina, Subway? Which server? What time? (GMT please...) :twisted: Hey, about the "fwords": Bettina, usually I don't type what I'm shouting on my room alone. hehe! :P Hey, don't restrain yourself when plaing with me! I get offended by that... sorry, but this is me. I like the beating, and...

For the mass killing part DigiJo you are SO DEAD RIGHT THERE! :evil: People haven't been done anything other that "mass killing" me... but, since I am way lot more stubborn than they ever dream they could be, I WILL STAY HERE even after they meet their grand children! And my last will is g...

Come on, both are right. Both say the truth. Now that everyone is happy, can't we just start shooting each other in some server? Thanks!... :P Last night I had SUCH a blast! I was in the middle of a CTF 6 vs 6 game. AWSOME! Never actually played with that many players. BTW, when servers start to fil...

Maybe I will. Should I go #descent on IRC do discuss it?

Just played some D3 online yesterday, although I never get more than last place I don't think I ever had such a blast in a long time, maybe too long... Anyway it felt good to be back, perhaps when I get a new joystick I maybe able to get my shots to actualy hit something! I bought this joystick in 1...

Hey thanks DigiJo, I'm headed there! Hope to see you all there. kurupt, I really can't remember... maybe, maybe not. Generally nicks where too strange and silly to remember. But here's one: '1FuCk3dYoU', and another 'GhostOfUnderwear'. But anyway cheating is always stupid, and a very "Hi mom i'...

Hello there to you all. I am a big Descent series fan. Although I'm new to this community, I have played Descent since the "Descent: First Strike" shareware came out and bought the full version of it. Also played Descent 2: CounterStrike. And have been playing Descent 3: Sol Ascent since 2...
