And stepping outside (night time) I thought "ooh. warm...and humid". Much different than Colorado. You felt heavy because you had just been on a plane several thousand feet above the earth's surface. You did not feel heavy because of the relatively small difference in altitude between Colorado and Georgia. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Video Game Addiction in General
Tyranicus Law Bringer Member # 6489	written Friday, June 29 2007 10:56 Profile Homepage #38 quote: Originally written by Adventuring Muffin: I just want to add that why do people make "educational" games? They are hated by some people...and are completely stupid. I wonder if a kid could get addicted to that. If they did, then that is just plain sad. I have to agree with Drew. Oregon Trail was awesome, and if I wasn't addicted to it when I was younger, I certainly spent many happy hours playing it as a child. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Avernum 1 2 and 3 speed in Tech Support
Tyranicus Law Bringer Member # 6489	written Wednesday, June 27 2007 20:07 Profile Homepage #4 I upgraded to 10.4.10, and the problem still exists. I think it's reasonable to assume that if Apple were going to do something, they would have done so already.

Cheating script for N:R in Nethergate
Tyranicus Law Bringer Member # 6489	written Monday, June 25 2007 19:10 Profile Homepage #2 As far as I can tell. It does nothing that can't be done in the editor, but it does make it a little simpler. One click for maximum stats, for example. What I'm hoping someone can do is make a script that trains the Romans in the spirit circle, but my guess is that will never happen.

Linux - Good match for me? in General
Tyranicus Law Bringer Member # 6489	written Thursday, June 21 2007 05:02 Profile Homepage #5 quote: Originally written by Najosz Thjsza Kjras: And Doom 3 might just be out of the question - WinE isn't a great game emulator and most people with an interest in high-level gaming typically run a partition with the relevant OS installed for the rainy day on which a game they like doesn't work with their emulator of choice.

Linux - Good match for me? in General
Tyranicus Law Bringer Member # 6489	written Wednesday, June 20 2007 17:46 Profile Homepage #2 1. According to the Wine Application Database, Audacity runs without any problems whatsoever, but Anvil Studio does not. I know I saw somewhere that somebody had written a Creative Zen driver for Linux, but I can't remember where I saw that now. For both Anvil Studio and your Creative player, you'd probably be better off installing virtualization software, such as Parallels Workstation or VMware Player (which is free), to run a virtual Windows installation. Most DOS games should be fine using DOSBox, and the ones that aren't should work in a virtualized MS-DOS or Windows 9x run in one of the above programs. Games are hit or miss. Many of them will not work correctly, but will have workarounds. The WADB is great for this. Doom 3 apparently has to be copied over from a Windows installation, and a NO-CD patch must be applied before playing it in Wine. 2. Just about all of them. I use Fedora 7, and I find the interface to be very simple and easy to use. 3. VLC Media Player is best known as a video player, but it also plays most audio content, including WMA, MP3, WAV, OGG, and ACC.

Exile Trilogy for Vista? in The Exile Trilogy
Tyranicus Law Bringer Member # 6489	written Wednesday, June 20 2007 04:15 Profile Homepage #10 quote: Originally written by Sturg: Well, sure Vista has gimmicks and adjustments that need to be made, but at least it looks cool and forces you to buy a powerful computer just to run it. When XP first came out you needed a (then) powerful computer to run it. Vista really doesn't have incredibly steep requirements by today's standards. You don't even need a powerful video card like they say. You won't get transparent window effects without one, but that's not a big deal. But seriously, a PC with 512MB of RAM, a 1GHz CPU, and 20GB of hard drive space is not exactly hard to come by. They had PCs with those specs 5 years ago. :P -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?
