I don't know what to say about this any more.

Banter is good. Sharp vitriolic wit is good. Games are good mapping is good online communities small or large are good feedback is good demos are good websites about gaming are good general chitchat with like-minded people is good and I'm off to the fucking pub. 

personally, it was when i started menstruating. Maybe we should set up a poll? 

man, you're an easily insulted guy! 

"I'm not insulted. In context, I didn't find that insulting in the slightest. And I'm pretty sure I'm part of "everyone". *checks membership card* Yep. "

Oh shut your pendantic ass up, FFS. Why is there always one that feels the need to point out that your obviously hyperbolic, blanket statement doesn't apply to them?

"Perhaps it's possible that all people on the forum don't have exactly the same reactions and opinions as you? Granted, it's a stretch, but I'm crazy like that..."

NO SHIT! 

It really did seem like you were (and have been) trying to speak for everyone. Blanket statements re: "the good of the community" and the like are tough for me to swallow when this community is so diverse.

I honestly appreciate the "NO SHIT!", because I was kind of wondering. :)

I'll try to keep the hyperbole in mind in the future, and dial back the cranky condescension.

(Just in case you care, you can quote with < q > and < /q > (remove the spaces). Not that it really matters...) 

I have tired of this argument.

Let us divert our attention to http://bacolicio.us/ and be done with it.

There's a vid of HL2 running well-fast and CoD4 running pretty good.....

Its a netbook! 

I was just thinking - maybe 3DRealms will release it when Rage comes out, for old times sake..... 

Even to you uptight fuckers who take this community way too seriously. 

Cryostasis tech demo http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=X9OhEubXnyI

Apparently you can download this but it requires vista and dx10. Impressive stuff tho 

... and guessing which parts are faked and which are real. water and cloth are real, but lots of material and textured lights there. 

*material tricks 

Func is six years old tomorrow! Which is almost half the time that quake has been out.

Thus begins a glorious Func posting career. 

...is a top quality post. 

Well, reporting back, seeing as so many of you expressed interest in how this ASUS N10J netbook would work with gaming!

After a fair bit of twaeking, updating directx, forceware etc, and figuring out how to get the discrete graphics card to be activated, I got the following two results:

Doom 3 - "high" settings - <>30fps @ 1024x600
UT3 - "low" settings - <>30fps @ 640x480
(UT3 had a little bit of minor stuttering, but was quite playable!)

So yeah - overall the netbook looks and feels very cool, the screen is a little bit small, but briliant picture quality, the Atom270 processor is a bit of a let-down (one program at a time please), but its very much a funtional netbook. Perfect for on the run....

How do I record a demo that keeps going after I die and respawn? Is this a feature of only some engines? I want to record nightmare first runs, and I sometimes die often :)
