Happy a great year of Gaming in 2011!

SirWinner

Avder,

Thanks for the link to the video.

Grid looks like a great idea for keyboard layout.

Will take a lot of play testing to get comfortable with that.

Thanks again,
SirWinner

SC2 ID and Character Code would be helpful Snoopy!

Mostly use mouse clicks. Know that I will have to learn to use the Shortcut Keys as well as setup groups of hit keys for squads. It is learnable... but when I get done with all the hotkeys used during Software Development the last thing that comes to mind is learning more at game time. Yes my fault....

I'm not going to give away any content or plot twists to the movie. Very much liked the Visuals and the Music. Found it very strange that they used \"Knock on the Sky\" when they meant \"Pray\" or \"Meditate\". - Guess it yet another attempt to be \"Politically Cor...

I haven't been on the DBB as much as in the old days.

This DBB'er misses a lot of the old school people that were here.

Avder, I can support but a little rusty on the hotkeys. Not very comfortable yet... Need some schooling on how to be a better SC2 player. --- One thing that Blizzard does very very well: Patch their games well beyond the life cycle of most gaming companies.

Safe Haven and Haven's Fall... my 2 least favorite SC2 missions. Too many hotkeys to remember most of the time. So I am an average player yet to play Player Vs. Player in SC2. Most of the Challenges have been done. The ONLY really obnoxious one is the Arcade Machine... Best score so far is about 50,...

Normally go out to have someone else cut my hair. Made the mistake once in the last 2 or 3 years or so of cutting it myself. Shaved my head for the summer but I missed a triangle at the very top back of my head that I just couldnt see... someone else pointed it out to me. DOH! Never again will I att...

If I had to pick just 3... My list would be: - Descent (1, 2, and 3) Couldn't stop playing Descent 1 Demo. Just couldn't beat that damn level 7 boss Lost ALL 30+ lives on it.. ACK! So out of frustration went and took one of the saved game then hacked the Saved Data to give Maximum of ALL Weapons and...

Alias: SevenUp Player Code: 369 Yet to play in SC2 Leagues... still not comfortable enough to tread in unprepared for battle. Up to 1355 SC2 Achievement Points... that's pretty low. Does help to find videos on YouTube to learn how to do the Challenges... some of them are extremely difficult until yo...

Great to see you there Mike!

Have you tried the newest Freespace 2 Open Source Releases? Played Freespace 2 Online almost every day for over a year with my Online teammates. Joystick / Keyboard combination was setup very well for me in FS2... Joystick was ONLY for steering with my right hand... left hand on the keyboard doing e...

Hope you had a most excellent Birthday Gooberman!

Taped this on Friday, October 22, 2010...

The Red Cardinal just keeps on flying into my back porch door.

Enjoy!

P. S. Yes the music \"Base Return\" is by Peter Rotter from Descent 2!

Coolness...

When I really need a can opener or the one at home has to be replaced... just break out the Can Opener on the Swiss Army Knife:

Sadly, there is a bigger nest at the top above my front porch just under the roof... we were planning on waxing them tomorrow or later this week.

Nice!

I'm assuming the cop let himself past the roadblock thinking it did not apply to him.

Malformed binary. Your binary code must be divisible by 8 :lol: Since when is BINARY ( Base 2 ) OCTAL ( Base 8 )? Have programmed computers for almost 33 years... nobody notified me of any changes to Binary since I first learned it in the late 1970's. The date 10/10/10 should be represented at 1010...

Most game software uses C++ with the timing dependent stuff optimized in Assembly Language. Look at the opened source popular games such as Descent 1, Descent 2, Freespace 2, etc... You will find that most of them were done in C++. --- Some of the better old old games were done purely in Assembly La...

You can learn to solve any of them with a lot of patience and learning the methods to solve them. The 3x3 there was a book out a long time ago. The trick is to do like Computer Programming and divide and subdivide the seemingly impossible into small solvable parts. The when you do each small part pr...

Will there be a demo? Only time will tell. :oops: If you know anyone who has bought the game they can give you a temp key that will stay active for a week or so. I think it allows something like 2 or 3 hours of gameplay. Friend of mine sent one to me but I haven't tried it yet. 2 or 3 hours? Better...

I must assume that you are talking about the 3 by 3 version. The 3 by 3 version the centers are always oriented in the same position. The 4 by 4 Rubik's Cube the centers can be moved from their original positions. It has been a long time since I worked on the 4 by 4 version. The trick is to get all ...

Will there be a demo?

Only time will tell.

Tried the demo expecting a REAL Space Sim Battle... NOT the mouse trash.

Sweet Videos... Keep up the good work.

Looks a ton like descent with a bit of Freespace 1 and 2 tidbits added.

I like it!

Drool drool drool... Hehehe!

Giving an estimated software release date is given based on your best guess based on the limited amount of data you have at that given time and based on previous projects that you have worked on. So it is hard to know exactly when the project is going to be done even if you are extremely close to th...

Just a question... did you try to disable native sata in the bios.. The systemboard does NOT have ANY SATA Connections. I didn't check the BIOS in that regard... since the SATA Board is an Add-On Peripheral Card. --- I think that the PC lost power during the boot process or shutdown process... whic...

Would have been fun to have the Mercury Missile in Descent 3... That was one extremely fast Missile.

In my opinion, Once you resolve the issues: - Upgrade to Opera 10.53 or later. - Upgrade to Firefox 3.6.3 or later. - Drop Internet Explorer (MSIE) except to do Windows Updates.

Most satellite connections like the one you are talking about are SHARING bandwidth... so I wouldn't bank on the speed staying consistently high.
