kraken, I order you to destroy the world. Go.
I read "another film about ancient geeks".
The film you are thinking of may be Clash of the Titans.

"Luke" backwards is Swedish (with slang) for "is fun" or "is funny".
To avoid misunderstandings; my latest post was directed at Blitzkrieg.
With this store they are doing exactly what they claim they don't want to do. They segregate people into groups that can't play together: one group with players with big wallets and players who have played for a very long time, another group with those without big wallets who haven't played for a very long time. The first group has an advantage over the other thanks to having better weapons. Valve are giving the working class a disadvantage. This update will especially affect players from poor countries. These players have never been able to afford as many games as the other players, but at least they have been playing by the same rules in the games that they can afford.
TF2 has in my opinion been getting worse almost every update. I think it's too complicated now with so many different weapons. I used to enjoy the game.

Q: What's a Mann Co. Store?Team Fortress 2 is getting even "better"... I want the old TF2 back.
A: Accessible from inside TF2, the Mann Co. Store will now let players buy, trade and customize the largest addition of inventory items in the game's history, using their Steam Wallets.
Q: What's a Steam Wallet?
A: Steam now has a feature called the Steam Wallet. It allows you to put money into it, which can then be spent either on in-game items, such as the ones offered in TF2?s Mann Co. Store, or on full products like games in the Steam store.
Q: Are store items priced in points, or some other weird currency?
A: No, the Steam Wallet uses the same real-world currency Steam currently supports (USD/GBP/Euros).
I vote for a coding competition.
Put something between the windows like paintings or medieval weapons and it'll look great.
I prefer 1.5a4 as well. The 1.8 physics and logics entities are much more complicated than those in 1.5a4.
Error #1: It appears you haven't declared the type CPlayerAbilities, or you haven't declared it before you reference it. In the first case, you have do create the CPlayerAbilities class. In the second case, try putting class CPlayerAbilities; at the top of player.h, or move the CPlayerAbilities declaration. If this does not help you, post
a few things more...
This thread is posted in the wrong forum. Now you're expecting The Mighty Atom to close it?
I think The Mighty was joking. Windows 3.11 doesn't even have .NET support.

I had been using the password "potatis" (Swedish for potato(es)) for a couple of years and all my friends knew that (they used to borrow my Youtube account since they were to lazy to sign up themselves). One of my friends had been using the unoriginal MSN nickname "Fallen Angel" for a few months when he decided to make a new Hotmail account because he kept getting spam email. He created fallen_invalido@hotmail.com ("invalido" is slang for disabled person). I also needed a new email address and I decided to put my well-known password and my friend's email address together to create potatis_invalido@hotmail.com (this was when Hotmail was still popular for some reason). Unfortunately (or fortunately, I can't decide which I like best), TWHL doesn't allow more than 15 characters in nicknames, so the "o" was cut off.
I'd like to hear saw1833's story.

The Widescreen Gaming Forum is a great site when a game doesn't let you use your preferred video resolution.
@Tetsu0: AoE2 works just fine for me (ATI HD4870, XP Pro x64). I found a forum thread about AoE2 colour problems on Windows 7.
Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace
The game's installer won't run on x64 Windows, because the x64 versions of Windows don't support 8088 (16-bit) programs. The game itself is x86 (32-bit). If you install the game on a virtual machine running a x86 (32-bit) Windows and then move the installed game from the virtual machine to your real PC, you'll be able to play it.

Post instructions on how to get old games running the way they should on modern computers.
Deus Ex
If you have a multi-core CPU Deus Ex will run at double speed or faster. The Deus Exe launcher fixes this.
7th Legion
7th Legion has the same problem as Deus Ex. The easiest way around it is to after you've started 7th Legion, open Windows Task Manager (ctrl+alt+delete), click Processes, right-click on legion.exe, click Set Affinity and uncheck all CPUs except one.
Star Wars Jedi Knight II - Jedi Outcast
If the game crashes when you start it, the problem is most likely in your video drivers. If updating those does not help, you can use an OpenGL > DirectX wrapper called GLDirect. The latest version can be found here. Put opengl32.dll from GLDirect in your Jedi Outcast/GameData folder.

The game is far from dead. The server was however, deserted.
From what I've read, puzzle games haven't been proven to help increase the intelligence of their players.
True, but Mewtwo is a good Pok?mon and it's been leveled up 23 levels. Unless he's used rare candy it has seen many fights and should have some EV. His birds on the other hand are on the same level he found them at and can't have fought much at all and should have almost no EV.Your cousin, because of his Mewtwo Lv 93.Remember, levels aren't everything... ha ha ha.
My cousin who is the brother of the cousin in the pokemon thread played dota his entire high school career and went to a crappy collegeThere should be no such thing as a crappy college. Blame your school system instead, because it's obviously flawed.
Your cousin, because of his Mewtwo Lv 93. Without it you'd win, his birds are untrained.
Crollo just did.
Yep.
Guys, Compo 28 TBA 2011.The competition was announced long ago and is already over. It's the results we're waiting for.
ASUS EAH4870. It overheats easily and has driver problems. Wouldn't recommend it.
I apologize for my outburst. I do however still think the GIF is wrong. You don't directly hurt children by spreading child pornography, but you indirectly do, by encouraging people to produce child porn. The same logic can be applied to the GIF. You don't see the squirrel getting hurt, but it's an unavoidable consequence of it getting shot into the air at such a high speed.
There are numerous examples of animal abuse in Christian literature. When you think it's funny that a squirrel gets shot away in a home-made canon to most likely get injured and possibly die I assume you don't care about animals. For your information I am a vegetarian, so I don't eat hamburgers. I do however perfectly understand those who do, and where hamburgers come from. Animals kills animals. I do not understand people who hurt or kill animals for pleasure, for example sacrificing a sheep or a cow to pleasure some God, or shooting a squirrel from a canon.
It kind of makes sense that conservative Christians think animal lives are worthless, I mean, if they believe the universe is a few thousand years old because that's what some old fool wrote in a book, they're bound to be fucked up in the head.
If I were admin, you'd get banned for that squirrel GIF. It's just sick.
Firetruck? Railway + train? Fenced off part of the road that's under construction + road roller? Crashed airplane? Gigantic cat?
Urby, does this mean you prefer Blue Shift over the original Half-life?Rope or guillotine?
TWHL's main colours are RGB(230, 168, 61) and RGB(218, 161, 52). The CSS named colour with the most resemblance to those two colours is goldenrod which is defined as RGB(218, 165, 32). Orange comes close, being defined as RGB(255, 165, 0).
If I remember correctly Skals was away on vacation for a few weeks, giving him less than two months.
And i was going to use 1.8 for my mod, looks like I'll still be using 1.4.I have 1.8a1 + source code. I'll upload it somewhere when I get home.
You might want to make a detail texture for the cave texture, Skals, it could make the cave look even more detailed.
I can't make it either.

The AWP and Desert Eagle make you cheap because they kill after only one or two shots, so if you hit your enemy won't have a chance to fight back.
I'll play if you can get others to join.
It is weak and slow but it's the most accurate SMG, so I use it sometimes.
It's Blitzkrieg!Remember this?
He's one of the few good "Duck" artists.
Here are some of his illustrations:
If you like Inception, which I think you do, I highly recommend his The Dream of a Lifetime (click this link to read it online). It has many similarities and some identical elements. Some have even theorized that The Dream of a Lifetime was the inspiration for Inception.

Since everyone are changing their avatars now, I might as well change mine. My new avatar is Donald Duck in Scrooge McDuck - The Crown Of The Crusader Kings by Don Rosa, my favourite comic book writer/illustrator.
I have seen Inception and I don't get it. Why's the bird taking a crap on that shield?
My avatar is from Episode 42 - Showdown At Dark City where we first learn of Pikachu's love for ketchup.
Oh I think you miss-understand, I think it was funny (though that's probably accidentally).
Potatis reminds me of my girlfriend's little brother who has tourettes and ADD issues. He loves pokemon with everything he is, but alas has no friends because he plays wii and DS all day.Ahaha, that's actually half me. Or one third. I like Pok?mon (but not enough to call myself a fan and I'm not obsessed with it). I have ADD, I have obsessions but not Tourette's. I have a big sister (although she's "only" my half sister). I play DS but I don't have a Wii. I guess the only major differences are that I do have friends and I'm not 10 years old. And I'm not whiney... am I?
He's a little brat as well, and whines and cries way too often to be a 10 year old.
He needs to be out getting laid like the rest of our youth. Isn't that what kids do now days?
