quite a few games use havok physics now as its pretty easy to implement without writing your own physics code, hl2 does actually implement a well modded version of it though, with the clear difference being extra physical properties and not totally spassing up like it can in its unmodded form - e.g. oblivion
fully destructable environments make for great games, red faction for example, red faction 2 was EVEN BetrTer yes
its still nowhere near the jump that software 3d to hardware 3d was, how far can a physics processor go, modelling individual splinters of a box??

Looking at games like Crysis and UT2007 the graphics are damn near perfection right?No.
Anyone can make a screenshot look amazing, when you actually play the game is when it matters, its like taking a photo of a place at a specific time from the perfect angle when conditions are perfect. It doesn't mean you'll get the same feeling you felt when you saw that limited view of reality that you will when you are actually there.
If you want to be able to use the laptop as essentially a second monitor then http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ is absolutely bloody amazing
thanks wikipepper
Physics does seem like a very different thing to a game than its overall graphics though, its still very gimmicky in its use in games and I dont really see how amazingly detailed physics would have affected any previous game that could have utilised it. I dont see the same effect that physics could have to make worthwhile compared to that of having a good graphics card in a game like oblivion. Even taking a game like BF2 fully destructible vehicles would hardly add to what is already a perfect game (choke splutter)
An onboard (combined with gfx card) solution is much more likely to work than a seperate card imo.

also, please, get the warranty from the manufacturer, you cannot fix any parts of it yourself and they'll screw you if you arent covered
I havent bought one since I got my 9300 last year, but it still seems that the centrino chipset is much better for mobility than anything AMD have created. Even though this pc is a desktop replacement its still portable in my extra large backpack, the main point is the high-cap battery can run it playing a film for around 2 1/2 hours. If you travel/use trains a lot I find my laptop essential, I dont really see the point in 'desktop replacements' that arent convenient enough to move between more than the rooms in your house, you might as well get a much higher specced desktop system or build one yourself.

ok so I post the answer, xyos can be excused because he posted at the same time, wc dude you suck and I am going to reign fire down upon your children
that crazy airsoft version is probably a conversion kit, obviously it has no reason for all those accessories other than looking funky

Yes, but its called the FN p-90 in real life, cant remember what silly name CS uses for it
you can get some fun airsoft version of it, im not a fan of bullpup rifles though

read the forum rules you muppets
I like big wurds, they makes me sound clevar
my thoughts exactly (see previous post about thoughts)
there can never be too much jobabob, too much strider though and we'd have to rename the site TWA*
thats interesting, Ive still never heard it mentioned anywhere before but I didn't realise Valve planned hl2 so far in advance, calling your first engine 'gold' just seems silly
This forum is full of so much sycophantism, self congratulation, excessive quoting and sin
My mind doesnt think very much
How was it called goldsource before source or another game existed to make it 'gold', its just a silly phrase coined on twhl by mappers that should move on.org
As far as games with pedophilia and other such examples, those are moot because they would never make it into production so even expressing them as a potential line is sorta redundant.Did you read my post?
and can people stop calling it 'goldsource' its driving me insane, its the 'half life one engine', always has and always will be
Its entertainment, to each their own and if your children are affected by them you really shouldnt have let them play the bloody thing now. I dont really see a line, yes I would be extremely offended and angry at a game approaching something like murder of children, paedophilia or other extremely taboo subjects in society, but they will never be made or allowed to be publicly released.
and thank god for that, episodic content is SO AMAZING YEAH

fraps is the best unfortunately, I suppose its quite complicated under the surface but its bloody expensive for what you get, you can't even customise the frame rate counter
By 'Some book about slavery and its cruelty' do you mean 'Rough Crossings' ?
especially all your maps, they're rubbish
this thread is stupid, flying is easy and the method for doing it is well known -

believing that you become a sentient pacman ghost after death is as crazy as believing you meet all your relatives with a big man in the sky
so you can get higher wages but the price of alcohol will force you to use one of their many euthanasia clinics
I double taked those rediculous sequel numbers as I realised they were TRUE
why not do a Q music, 1000 top whatever of all time, because clearcly bohemian rhapsody is number 127 but dont stop me now is 245
I do actually agree to an extent that religion gives people hope, unfortunately at the same time it is responsible for so much crazy fucking shit in the world that really shouldnt happen, that its hard not to wish it just wasnt there
I don't even really know WHY they made suicide a crime... They gonna put your body in jail?Its hard to criminalise assisted suicide and not suicide as well
nickelplate actually made me laugh, I need to go wash the dirt off, so dirty
about 1200
religion is pointless, it only causes bad things to happen, anyone? also, why dont we stone all the blacks

why is it so hard to make something 100% efficient, I blame God for making physics so complicated
wow, its as if gordon were riding it himself
Uh.. everyone should be able to decide whether to die or not, when they want it.
especially those that just dont feel like living because society has let them down, get rid of them instead of doing something stupid like therapy and rehabilitation

sarcasm tags are for people who dont undestand sarcasm
on a lighter note, theres a farmer in suffolk who is manufacturing gallows and exporting them to the zimbabwean government, iyou can't make this stuff up

can't we just have death booths in the street, would certainly help with overpopulation and chavs
yes because the US military would openly admit their computer security procedures are shite
the swedes are really brilliant at suicide, plus their euthanasia program is a little too progressive for my liking
I was quite suprised he's up for extradition though, if the US get him he'll be thrown in guantanamo most likely, what he did was wrong, but not malicious
what? no you're supposed to be angry and attack my character! i'm attacking your religion, defend yourself! be more like nickelplate etc
Oh yes, I must maintain a serious face when talking about a sensitive subject on a mapping forum. I'm a pretty fascecious guy on these forums, get over it.
Orpheus (prop N) Or-fee-uss: One for whom sarcasm has no meaning.
The new 'right to die' bill, now i'm not proposing euthanasia here in the same way you can end your life in Sweden because you are old, this is bringing about the inevitable end of pallative care in the death of a patient, before it happens. This done to help the patient to not suffer whatever throes that will eventually cause their death, characterised of course by the sad passing of Diane Petty who lost her human rights case to die before her body suffocated her in what can only be imagined as an terrible suffering.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/4757063.stm
Doctors in the UK do not support the bill, would you allow someone in Diane Petty's case to die, or as suicide is a sin and a crime are you held by your religious or legal and moral beliefs?
and before Orpheus says anything, no I havent been euthanised personally, but please refrain from debating on debating or i'll beat you up

This thread is too much for me, I dont have the free time to read a newspaper AND this.
