Surely you knew vista has all kinds of terrible issues. That's why I love my XP!
that's because i don't want youtube videos. that's a dumb idea.
if you wait until november or so, user profiles and a bunch of other stuff are getting a bit of an upgrade. but i don't have time until christmas holidays.
when someone makes a full custom theme for TWHL with complete stylesheets that are compatible in all browsers, along with custom background images, logos, icons, and the like, i'll implement custom themes.

it's been "almost" confirmed that demoman will not get a detpack. there was an interview where that was asked and the response was "probably not".
EDIT: and here we go:

so now i'm going to try to put an excel formula parser in Twister that doesn't depend on excel. go me.
200 * cos(((xval-(res/2))/3)*((yval-(res/2))/3))here's another:
400*cos(((xval-(res/2))/2)) * sin(((yval-(res/2))/2))and finally the one from the gensurf website (modified):
5000-(radius/16+256*sin(radius/256))i just looked at gensurf and because it is incompatible with newer versions of Excel so the formula function doesn't work, it seems pretty useless. besides, Twister's purpose is different to gensurf's, except for heightmaps.

XHTML is an XML based language - and XML is an anally strict language. if an XML file has a single error, it is not parsed. this would be the same for XHTML if browsers actually parsed XHTML as XML, but they don't. point is that choosing a format like that and then filling it with errors is a dumb thing to do.
secondly, there's a standard for a reason. if you make a valid website that doesn't render like it should on a browser, then it should be the browser's fault. this means that you can sit on your valid website until the browser creators pull their thumbs out and fix their broken code.
yes, browsers detect invalid code and compensate for it, but they all do it in different ways. these ambiguities in parsing errors destroys any cross-compatibilities between browsers and makes web developers' lives a living hell.
people who don't follow the standards are slowing down the progress of the internet. imagine if a language like C++ didn't have a standard - multiplatform support would be out the window.
The reason that developing a website that is valid and works in all browsers is so hard is mostly because IE does not adhere to the standards like all other browsers do, and is therefore having a negative effect on the internet in general.
And I don't see a reason to correct someone saying that something "looks balls". It's a perfectly valid comment.

Tito, that was possibly the dumbest comment I've ever seen, because if you even looked at the source code you'd see 215 validation errors on the front page alone.
I don't get what Hunter is trying to say. Are you pointing out the blurry screenshots or what?

best time to play as pyro EVER. (except maybe for spy update time :P)
and a log of the most epic rush i've ever done is here. thanks to trapt too, for timely uber and keeping me alive 
i'm at uni so i have to wait another 10 hours before i can try the new update, but then again nobody plays any games before 6pm anyway. (10am now)
unless you're me. i can judge everything by a first impression! my first impression of this is: TF2 content yay!!
but seriously, this arena mode is mostly intended for the competitive part of TF2, but i'm sure that pubbers will enjoy playing it too.

this thread is about VERC - we're only taking content from it because it is dead. we don't want to go stealing active sites' content for no reason!
well if you don't make a long term commitment, you can switch it to TF2 when some TF2 maps are released by members. yes?
as long as TWHL members get admin so we can boot fags when they start fagging around, i'd play even if my ping was 200 >_>
tf2 server would be better tho.

what's that got to do with VERC?
well those rumors have been really accurate so far - but if there was a sandvich i think it'd only be able to be eaten by the heavy, not dropped for other classes.
yeah, i think you're right.
I wouldn't ever play any MMORPG but if I did, I'd do this.
afaik, you should install 32 bit programs in the x86 directory, and 64 bit apps in the regular one.
i've never used a 64 bit operating system, but i think that the trouble alot of people have with 64 bit is driver incompatibilities - drivers must be 64 bit, but programs that are 32 bit will run fine. i think.
as for crysis, just install to the default location and it should be fine, i guess.

heh, i didn't know that existed, but my point still stands for the version on muzz's site 
i had to read the wiki page on rasputin first. he never received explosive damage! but he did get stabbed, poisoned, shot, bludgeoned, drowned, and burned!
You can't, you must use the C++ compiler that comes with Visual Studio 6.
some of you might have missed the fact that they have revealed the achievement details too. http://steamgames.com/tf2/heavy/kgb.htm
no, because one of these days i'm going to do the projects system. and this is exactly what it's meant for. There's a small bit of detail on it here. You have to remember that the majority of my TWHL3 work is done over the christmas break, which is why there have been no updates lately. i'm pretty much booked up from march to mid-november. But i'll try to do some work then - no guarantees tho, Left 4 Dead as well as a bunch of other games are coming out around november
clarified my post a bit.
In regards to Trapt:
DDR3 shouldn't stop you from using windows XP.
this is probably done by valve on purpose elof, to create discussions very much like this one.
Redistribution of health achievement:
the image is called 'tf_heavy_heal_medikits.png'. so the heavy is getting medkits in the form of sandwiches? only time will tell!
god i love valve
god i love valve
rumor has it that the new shotgun will be a sandwich that gives 100 health, and the new minigun will do less damage and slow people down. and it is said that the new game mode is not hunted - it's some "arena" mode that is like sudden death. and a few old maps like badlands are being redone for the new type.
the same rumors got the gloves unlock almost exactly right, but who knows? some of the achievements make references to sandwiches, eating, and health - so it may be more likely than you think.

i would if i cared.
it's just they way they say "arenas" and not "maps". it sounds like a way to skirt the truth while still sounding impressive.
sorry, i meant 5 sections - like how dustbowl has 3. i just read the tf2 blog entry and the way it's worded it sounds like 5 new maps. seems quite a bit tho. that's only one less than the number of maps that came out with TF2 in the first place. plus cp_steel, that makes the complete 6. that's quite a lot for valve.
cp_steel! woot.
the new game mode with "5 arenas of play", would that be 5 new maps or 1 new map with 5 modes? guess we'll find out in a few days.
is hunted mode similar to vip mode in CS?

muzz from what little i know, please give the option for nondescript beeps and bloops instead of voices. something like that would turn me off a program forever.

lawl.
well there's a few players in australia that ruin it for the rest of us. there's only 3 australian servers and these guys are almost always in the populated one(s). and since the admins are slack, and the game does nothing to punish teamkilling (besides -1 point), there's usually a serial teamkiller on all the time :/
tib sun will always be my favourite RTS
can't a G15 keyboard do that? it's even mentioned in that thread you linked. afaik, you can add all kinds of plugins to the G15 screen, but by default it shows your CPU and RAM usage.
you can also get LCD faceplates for the front of your pc box that have these kind of stats on them, i've seen them from time to time.

Everyone stop now. He's banned.
look at the root directory homepage. there's no way that's real.
but most of them are joke sites and are meant to look bad, like this one.
i like this mod but find it impossible to enjoy because of the unbelievable amount of team killers and immature pricks. i think i've only had one game where there isn't a fucktard teamkilling all the time.
for source, i think VS.NET 2005 is the standard now.
it sure will
capt: goldsource heightmaps work exactly the same, except the "displacement resolution" is the number of displacements on each side of the whole heightmap. so if you set the power to 3 (8 triangles) and the displacement resolution to 4, that's 8 x 4 = 32 triangles on each side. the width of each triangle would be the width you provided divided by 32.

I just played a good two hours of this and enjoyed myself thoroughly.
luke: the point of those TF2 screens isn't my score, it's the rest of my team
oh and one where i was dominating half the other team
i don't know about whether this falls into either end of the spectrum, but when i played C&C3 against grim, i got massively owned by the biggest scrin carrier rush ever D:
aslo, i completely pwn ant, strider, trapt and dewdle at CS:S even though i suck at it
