I just started a new blog (yeah, I know) which will be focused on marketing, personal finances and game/level design (weird combo, yeah). It can be found at: http://dnaumov.blogspot.com/
...namely;
butcher.zip cavosin.zip marsalis.zip mercy.zip mykd1.zip p2hell.zip series1.zip. And also: lm231.zip ne_dust2.zip sp_mz1.zip temple_e1.zip. ~ Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! HL2 Cyberpunk/copy mod gets ORIGINALITY AWARD
http://dystopia-game.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2131&start=0&sid=05d7d15ea44fd08d4db90d3526e7f6e9 Please.... not to mention team bias factoring into the decision. is it purely multiplayer? It might not be so bad __ A Team Fortress with Deus Ex like personel enhancements http://dystopiafc.eatsleepcode.ca/images/screenshots/screend.jpg -- I could dig it.
Though I would prefer a Deus Ex single player clone mod. http://www.quaddicted.com/stuff/q1sp.zip
These are the "And also:" maps, I guess I got them from aguire or Vorelord. I don't have the original Well - "it might not be so bad" isn't any concern, most of it looks well done. I just think it was a dumb call on giving it an originality award. Although as it's hard to innovate without calling upon elements of been-there-done-that, your 'execution is everything' point is a good one.
it does at least seem more "original" than most major commercial FPS (doesn't require much to do that though).
is just poor naming for the award. Something more like, the What Trips Our Trigger Award would
be more truthful. I want you guys to know that I got a headache at dinner today, came home and took a nap, woke up at 2 in the morning and had a fucking awesome idea for an easy way to produce shirts with pixellated classic game sprites and/or internet smileys on them, that won't wash out or suck.
I'm going to experiment with it this week. Looks like I've already found a good way to blow disposable income! More info to follow in the coming days. great, because i've been mulling over a similar idea (sans inpsiration) for a while. Let me know your results.
How come noone's discussing how completely shit the FEAR demo is?
http://www.filerush.com/download.php?target=fear_spdemo_en.exe Why did anyone ever care about this? In other words, my idea turned out to be trash. Will attempt via normal screen printing methods at a much slower pace and report later.
Also, metl, FEAR is Monolith's new shooter that combines the worn out real world weapon tactical nonsense of Counterstrike with the worn out bullet time of Max Payne and adds clumsy watery controls for the win. lithtech, void of feeling from first byte to last.
anyway, on a tangent note, a t-shirt with an old fashioned q1 rocket launcher on it would be very, very cool. Is here: http://www.ipodlinux.org/Doom
Spot on Lun.
CZG, good point but I couldn't be arsed to try it. The FEAR MP test was the worst thing that has ever disgraced my PC and if they can't get basic things like movement, feel, designs, weapons effects, and most of all running speeds to be remotely acceptable in a 2-box map test then I'm not wasting valuable kbs on a demo. I played it, it wasn't that it was exceptionally bad, just that it wasn't noticeably good. Mediocre theme, very samey weapons, nothing really 'oh hey thats cool I should buy this when it comes out' ever came to me when playing. Also, it's really short.
/me goes back to battlefield 2... Basically the question is in the subject line. I have an older AMD Thunderbird 1400 Mhz machine that seems to lock-up and reboot by itself pretty often. I've checked the RAM which was okay and also tried installing different OS'es and the problem persists in all versions of Windows, Linux and FreeBSD, so I am figuring heat is my problem.
The system runs at about 60-62C idle with temperature rising to 69-70c under heavy load. Is this too much? What are normal idle/load temperatures for a 1400 Mhz AMD Thunderbird? I am kind of stuck on this PC for quite some time so I think I should purchase a new heatsink/cooler for it, what would be a good recommendation for a system with a Socket A motherboard and a case without a whole lot of free space? My another concern is: since this crashing and self-rebooting has been going on for a long time (over a year) and I am only now getting to fixing it, could it be that the damage is permanent if overheating is indeed the cause of the problems? I am not too keen on spending money on new cooling equipment for an old computer only to find out it doesn't help at all. Thoughts? 60-62 C idle to me definitely sounds too warm, but not necessarily red-alarm-alert warm. I have an Intel Celeron that idles in the mid 30's (with the air-conditioning in the nearby room on) to 40c (with the AC off, on a warm summer day). After/during games it goes up between maybe, 5 - 7 degrees.
Anyway, from what I understand AMD's generally run cooler than Intels but this may or may not depend upon which CPUs of either. If you're looking for a new cooling solution, run by AMD's website - they have suggested/recommended products. I can't run the vast majority of game released past 1999 or so. Games like Quake 3, UT2004, RtCW and Doom 3 lock up my system or make it reboot almost immideately upon launch (5 min tops). However I can run Warcraft 3 without issues. Ripping a CD to MP3 or trying to burn a CD in my burner are also causing lock-ups. The system also seems to sometimes lock-up and reboot at random when doing nothing (for example if I leave it running overnight).
Oh and another problem I am having is that the machine only boots up once per 10 attempts or so. When I push the power button, the CPU and HD activity leds are constantly on and all the fans are rotating, but I am not getting any signal on my monitor. And I have tried changing the video card.
70 is MAX. should be less than 60 under load
Im getting ~50-55 playing D3 for A2200+ (1800mhz afair). And Im not even running the CPU fan fullspeed. Get a new cooler u
