So it doesn't have anything to do with the processor and does have to do with the mobo. Interesting how quickly that got turned around.
Funny because I have a board that doesn't have a pentium 4 [doesn't even support SSE2] but it supports usb booting. Explain to me how it works, I'm obviously too stupid.
Huh, seems the only possible option is to burn a CD\DVD or use a USB stick. No other viable option.
EDIT: lol'd at win95 comment. Good shit.
Also, anything, with rare exceptions, below P4 does not support USB boot.Funny how the processor somehow dictates the motherboard's booting capabilities.

Well, that's the point, there aren't many good looking DX9 games because game developers never put out decently detailed environments, characters, or etcetera. We haven't even pushed DX9 to a good point and we're rushing out all this new DX11 and DDR5 technology? I think we need to actually push the envelope of what we have before we start to rush into entirely new technology.
EDIT: Right, my bad didn't realize what thread we were in.

I looked at your Samaritan demo and maybe I'm just completely blind but I see nothing that would require DX11 or that behemoth of a card. It looks like a tech demo that has for once actually pushed reasonably detailed environments and effects that could easily be accomplished with a good DX10 or DX9 card. Maybe DX11 helps detail slightly with the tessellation technology, but I see no reason you can't get that level of detail with a good DX9 card.
If anything I'm still not impressed. Look at the Nvidia head demo, and compare it to the Samaritan's head in that video in the close up. The technology to create highly detailed environments is not a dx11 and etc technology exclusive. We just chose not to utilize what we have now.

What's the point of having a car with 400 horsepower [GPU with DX11, DDR5 etc] when the roads you drive on [Games that you run] don't even let you properly reach it's full potential? [Properly utilize DX11, DDR5 etc]
Use a good high performing card that has lesser specs [DX9\10.1, 1GB DDR3 memory etc] and you're not going to be at a very large disadvantage to the DX11 and DDR5 cards, as very few games actually use the full potential of those newer technologies.
If games started to use DX11\DDR5\etc over DX9\DDR3\etc like games started to use DX9\DDR3\etc over DX7\DDR\etc, then purchasing that kind of hardware would make sense... But otherwise it makes as much sense as those people who buy 16GB of DDR5 ram, and then run games like Burnout Paradise and BF3. Unless there's a need for it [where anything lesser wouldn't get you very far], it's called unnecessary.

Now playing... on a bad ass cardMeh at best.
If this is considered a 'bad ass card' then we really aren't pushing technology very far. Several years ago 1GB cards were the norm.
We need to push games and technology so that we could actually practically need or in some way utilize a 2GB DDR5 DX11 card, otherwise we'll just have another couple years of 2GB cards with no advancement or need short of bragging rights [EG: DX10 cards]
Maybe I'm just too stupid to appreciate 'amazing' technology, but I've played BF3 [the holy grail of PC graphics, apparently] with all the settings maxed out, AA maxed out, on a 1080p set and i was not impressed. This can't possibly be the best we have to offer.
Hammer and Sandbox 2 work very differently. What Urby's [logically] suggesting is to use hammer for brushwork (Cryengine is based around terrain, not brushes like HL) then use the WYSIWYG style editor for entity placement.
Dropbox does automatically download files and keeps tracks of versions. It even allows you to download previous versions.
Ha that's something I'd probably do, only I wouldn't figure it out afterwards.
Wav files have to be a certain type before they'll play properly in the game.

It looks like the front panel of a vending machine, not the entire machine.
EDIT: Confusing. It looks too thick to be just the front panel, and too thin to be a full machine. Is it supposed to be a future vending machine?
From what I can tell there's working lights but what about light fixtures built into the room itself? Is it still being constructed, because I would imagine there should at least be some fixtures in the room itself instead of just working lights.

I'm Canadian and I don't even know what the hell greenback is.
I clicked over 60 times until I hit a description and without thinking I hit skip again. GOD DAMNIT.
How do you get to the describing part of the game? I've only been able to draw.
stop whining skals
Bruce is the kind of kid who used to get swirlies from high school bullies not because they were trying to bully him, but because they were trying to clean his filthy mouth. They failed, on all accounts.
I get what he means though, cs players aren't known for their best sportsmanship and griefing 10 year old bitches tend to take the most exploitable elements and well... Exploit them as much as they can.
Even non-griefers will abuse this stuff for their own benefit, accidental or dickfaced team flashes are frequent and bad enough as is. Giving molotovs to cs players is like giving molotovs to preschoolers. It ends bad.

Sorry about the err Zeeba, I thought rufee's only comment about movement was his post about source's burning movement therefore I thought you were saying that movement being restricted whilst burning alive was silly. Sorry, I'm too tired to be on TWHL right now.
I do still think it's a bit silly to treat this as though it's a negative 'change' just simply because it wasn't 'fixed' though. I mean, like you said, it's in every source game, so what's the problem? It wasn't intentionally put into CS:GO or anything... It's just different from 1.6.

Yeah of course, because when you're on fucking fire you can definitely expect to have clear, logically sound ability to move and control yourself.
And to argue that point is ridiculous anyways because every single source game works this way. Why do you act as though this is strictly a CS:GO issue?

Im still trying to wrap my head around why there are 2 machineguns in the gameWhy not? Different weapons, different tools, different uses.

The gaming industry is like a bag of potato chips. [It isn't] They could sell you the whole bag but they wouldn't make any money that way, so they sell you individual chips instead.
Yeah, a simple explanation\breakdown would be:
Depth of field: The depth of the plane [Field] that accommodates acceptable focus.
Bokeh: The quality of the area that is outside of the acceptable focus plane [Field], usually referred to as the blur.
So basically, DOF is the in focus parts, Bokeh is to refer to the out of focus parts.

Depends on what you're referring to.
If you're referring to what is in focus and what isn't, then you're referring to DOF (or FOV, although incorrect). [EG, the DOF is so shallow!]
If you're referring to the blur itself, you're referring to the bokeh. [EG, that bokeh looks so creamy, that bokeh looks horrible] Bokeh literally means "quality of blur".

That's some awesome bokeh. I don't know why but I love the rough bokeh, I think the buttery smooth bokeh is just so cliche-like.
Look what I got...
I cannot even begin to explain how much I missed my fast glass.
(Alright the Olympus has some pretty fast glass being 2.4 at the longest end, but the sensor size is so small it's negligible.)

Canon FD 50mm 1.8. Guess what I got it for?
Whatever did happen to the cs server?
60 pages is approaching 100? In figures it's kind of close, but it's going to take a long time [Given how active this thread is] for it to reach 100.
I'm sure you don't plan at all. You've already got all the 1MB floppy disks you need.
Jesus christ go back to your car sized HDDS and floppy disks and be done with it.
nVidia: stable driversYeah, like the driver that turned the fan off on your brand new expensive GTX card and fried it.
I have never had a single issue with anything ati or amd related, drivers or cards. Nvidia on the other hand...
There is no doubt HL3 will support 3D like hell.NO! Obviously HL3 will be 6D.
I don't buy this at all. Kid has serious problems, either socially or mentally... Putting down and bullying a 12 year old kid and then acting innocent playing it off as 'I was just messing with him' is bullshit enough without him trying to play off this mlp as 'messing around' too. I suggest he seek help because whatever he's going through isn't healthy.
Breaking BadThread over. Go watch it, now.
Click the images. 
Also, got a new toy today. What could this be?
With the telephoto adapter it effectively becomes a 75[?]mm 1.8 portrait lens. Albeit with lesser sharpness but nonetheless a great lens.

Yeah I fucked up the DOF, sue me.

Whenever I look at a hallway like that, it's pretty much unusual to not have ceiling tiles hanging\moved and maybe a wire hanging out and swinging.
Kodaks are worthless shit. They have the highest ISO noise in the market.This one has a lowest ISO of 80, and it has more noise then my Olympus does at ISO 320.
I'd love to have a Canon AT-1 or something like that but apparently all sellers in my area got smart and are charging upwards of $200 for working ones. Fuck them.I wish I hadn't traded that FT QL + FL 50mm 1.8, that camera was worth so much yet I traded it for a plastic Rebel G and a shitty kit lens... Live and learn.
I believe the SourceSDK should be free to use, if not on it's own then with TF2.
For compatiblity's sake we could just use something completely free-to-play like HL2DM, then nobody would have any excuses. But then you'd just needlessly restrict yourself to MP.
I remember you have EF lenses, what SLR do you have?
EDIT: T2i huh? Any love for film?
So utterly pointless, but cute.

Nah, I wish I did. It's the school technician's camera and I go there every Friday.
He doesn't mind if I use it so long as I don't take it anywhere so I always get an hour to mess around with it in the office. The EF 35-80mm is mine though.

Nah, came across it on the street, thought it looked cool and took a picture.
Wheeee camera porn.
