I dimly remember some movie where people were able to connect themselves to computers and download information into their brains. I can't remember what movie it was... each time I try to think of the name I think of Minority Report, but I know that one was different. However, it wouldn't surprise me...

I didn't mean that an otter was a beaver. I was just pointing out that Roid was refferring to a beaver.

That's a beaver (which just happens to be the Canadian national animal). I don't know enough about otters to say anything but that they're mustelids (weasel family), very playful, and I like them.

Alter-Fox

I think my personality is now a cross between a dolphin, a fox, and an otter. If I had to pick one of them to be, it would definetely be the fox. Plus, if there is going to be an 8th ice age, an arctic fox would be just the thing.

Alter-Fox

That was actually the mac/playstaytion version of the D1 theme.

Alter-Fox

Does anyone know why there's a matcen in Vertigo level 9 that generates indestructible Ice Bosses (the level 16 boss from D2 Counterstrike)?

Does anyone know exactly why they're indestructible?

I just thought that it was... wierd.

Alter-Fox

I saw it on friday... it was really good. But I like anything with griffins.

Alter-Fox

I would never eat a lizard. My pet gecko and I are too close.

Never succeeded to win D3, always got killed by that train (don't laugh). It isn't that I am a noob or so (after all played through both D1 and D2 on all difficulty levels except for insane) but I always got killd by the train. Interesting. In D1 and D2, I can't beat any level on any difficulty lev...

How many Descent players play Magic: The Gathering? I'm interested to know (obviously.) I play, but I'm not very good at it.

Alter-Fox

Secret level 2 of D2 Vertigo is also really good. I never thought Descent could have a level that looks so much like the classic \"dungeon\" level.

Alter-Fox

I'm rearranging the order of the levels. The level that was going to be level 3 is now level 4, levels 1 and 2 are switched, and I've almost finished building a completely new (boss) level for level 3. I'm also going to rebuild the final level (level 5)completely differently, to make it more enjoyab...

Sonic Heroes for PC.

I can't remember when, but I had a dream once where I turned into an E-Bandit and killed my Grade 11 Physics teacher. It's strange, because I like my Grade 11 Physics teacher.

I've turned 18 today!!! (In Manitoba, 18 is the age when I'm legally an adult).
I've already promised myself that I will never drink alcohol, smoke, or take drugs, in case you were wondering. I'm not interested in poisoning myself.

Alter-Fox

What, do you think, is the coolest robot in each Descent game? These are my favourites: D1: Secondary Lifter D2: Bper, TRN Racer, and Green Spider (The D2 spider has the coolest robot sounds, in my opinion, and the TRN Racer's sounds are a close second. The Bper I just like for how it looks.) D2 Ver...

I had two really wierd dreams last night.

The first was that the object I'd used as a bookmark before I fell asleep was a bomb, and it was obviously going to explode.

The second dream was on the Descent BB, someone was asking Diedel to use D2X-XL to save someone else's soul.

Alter-Fox

I can sing, although I never do, but I did use my keyboard to make a (loose, and somewhat better) cover of the D1 level 19 music entirely by ear, and I included the choir part from the D2 level 3 midi music in another piece, also entirely by ear.

EDIT: Sorry, irrelevant post.

Alter-Fox

If you've ever looked into a fox's eyes, it's impossible to believe they don't have souls. (At least for me.)

Alter-Fox

I absolutely agree that animals have souls.

Alter-Fox

I recently got my hands on The Vertigo Series, and somehow unlocked all the levels in D2X-XL, which I also got working, and I have to say, the coolest D2 level ever has to be Morabi Milk Mine (Vertigo level 19).

Alter-Fox

I have that the exact same way too. It's sort of like an infinite loop... in the dream, when whatever it is happens, I remember I had a dream about it, and a dream about that dream and so on... and the same when it happens in waking life. BTW - Duper, I have obviously been playing Descent too much, ...

Alter-Fox

You know, I can't remember if the books are sequential and I don't quite remember if they are based on D2 or D3. D3 maybe? :? The books (at least the third one, which is the only one I've read) seemed to have been based on D2, as all the weapons and bots used for most of the book were from D2 or D2...

Alter-Fox

Apart from Descent, I mostly play Sonic Riders and Sonic Heroes. I would be playing TrackMania Sunrise, but I've lost my CD.

Alter-Fox

If you can change the textures depending on the level, then why don't you texture the robot differently for each D2 \"theme\", and maybe give them different weapons for each theme while you're at it? Just a suggesion. BTW - I really like the robot designs, and now that I have D2X-XL workin...

Alter-Fox

EDIT: Alter-fox, I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to redo the whole level from scratch. However don't fret, I'll keep your overall layout intact and you'll still get half credit for the level regardless. So I'm taking your level idea and 'remaking it' as it were. That's fine. I'm just a novice level build...

Alter-Fox

It completely slipped my mind, what with all the homework I've been doing. I'll send it right now.

Alter-Fox

I think I've had dreams where I was perversly happy in the dream, but then I came to my senses when I woke up. There have also been times when I woke up, didn't remember HAVING any dreams, but I remembered what was in the dreams. And I've also had dreams about a trilogy of novels I'm writing, one th...

Alter-Fox

edit: you're right. Abrupt climate changes HAVE happened in the past, even quicker than nowadays (i.e. within a lifetime), and have lead to drastic changes in ecosystems and cultures. That doesn't mean that we should keep releasing toxic chemicals into the air and the water. Aggravating it could ca...

Alter-Fox

I often have dreams where I know I'm dreaming, although they're not lucid dreams. In these dreams I know I have to do something to wake up, usually jumping off a cliff or something like that. (My brother just commented that it seems like I have to kill myself to wake up, which is probably the most l...

In level 4 of D3 Retribution there were the Black Pyros... and BlueDevil, a multiplayer level that came with the Mercenary pack but was made by a fan, had them too. You could face them in singleplayer. And if you can't find it, you could always ask someone to make a level with them. There were the S...

I've had many prophetic dreams. Sad part is I don't remember them until that exact moment in time passes. It's reffered to as Deja-vu. It's a split second image that happens in real life for me and I'm like, I have seen this before. I've had this since I was a teen. I don't remember them until they...

Alter-Fox

Yesterday I had a very interesting conversation with someone who is taking a course on dreams. According to my dreams, I am spiritually a dolphin. I've also had dreams that were somewhat prophetic, like a dream about the Secret2 demo in D3 which I think I had just after I first played D1 in 1995 or ...

Actually, AlterFox, the coldness of the water from pole caps melting won't do it, it will be the amount of water released that will dilute the oceans's salt density. This density is what supports the ocean currents. When diluted, the currents won't work properly, and the warm waters from the equato...

Alter-Fox

I have loads of homework to do, so I might not be able to get the level to you today. If I don't send it today, then I probably will tomorrow. EDIT - If the soundtrack for your campaign is D2X-XL only, then I won't be able to hear the music for my own level, if it gets put in. I think it would be a ...

Alter-Fox

I'm running Descent 2 with dosbox, but using dle-xp to build levels because the only other editor I can get to work is the DMB2 demo, and apart from the obvious difference in level size, it's also much faster and easier for me to build with dle-xp. What I meant was that if I delete any objects, the ...

Alter-Fox

I made a small level a few weeks ago, based on the idea I had for secret level 1 of my D3 set. Unfortunately, I ended up putting powerups and robots into it, because I didn't know there'd be a chance for it to be included in this. If it were possible to remove the powerups and robots (deleting objec...

IIRC they called it Global Warming back when they thought the main problem would be melting ice caps and thus rising sea levels. But then they realized that one of the first things to happen would be the halting of the Gulf Stream - which would plunge Europe into an ice age putting billions of peop...

Just to point out, CO2 getting absorbed by the water could (I don't know for sure,) affect marine life. All life on Earth is important to all other life. This could be a worse scenario because we don't understand marine life as well as land based life, and so don't know how it will affect us as well...

In the room past the teleporters, there's a wierd texture on one wall with another (beigish) texture shaped sort of like an egg in the center. Fire vauss or any other matter weapon at that texture and it breaks like glass so you can get into the hive. There will be more circular textures like that i...
