    MMOs an utter waste of time

    It does, but it's very shallow compared to the ones that have the "grind." (From what I've heard.)

    MMOs an utter waste of time

    /me suggests that Kage avoid the "grinding [monster]" phrase... ever since I had the misfortune of saying "Yeah, I'm grinding pirates in STV" I've avoided that term like the plauge.

    Preordering

    Overnight shipping makes anything possible. :)

    Bunker Buster Demonstration

    Bunker busters are small nukes iirc. Nukes = bad. As far as I know, they work on the same principle as tank-busting "shaped charges," which essentially melt a pathway to their target's core through the use of extremely high heat and constant propulsion.

    Strengths and Weaknesses of Each Platform?

    Judging from your use of LW in my other thread, would I be correct in guessing that it's your favorite, TDE? (And if so, do you have any tutorials on hand?)

    Strengths and Weaknesses of Each Platform?

    This is sort of like the "d00d what m0d3l1ng pr0g do u uz3?" threads, minus the "l33t speak" and plus some fore-knowledge. I'm hoping people can help me outline what each of the big packages' strengths and weaknesses are, to help me decide where to start. What I write below is based on what I've...

    What is the Place of Digital Artists in the Future of Media?

    I bookmared it, to come back to when I have a hope of picking up all the details (though, in fairness, I got the broad picture, just not the details). :)

    Winamp Application Error

    That's exactly what I was thinking of, thanks! (Knew it started with Q, or thought I did... didn't want to go talking about some "Q player" no one knew about.)

    Gamespot's Prey Q&A

    Prey has undergone a ridiculously complex life-cycle that most games would not have surivved. That was on old Unreal tech, I believe, the new game is based on Q4 tech. (If I remember correctly from the PCGUS cover story.)

    MMOs an utter waste of time

    At least MMOs offer some sort of feedback/long-term "gain." Your traditional SP/MP game offers nothing over an MMO, just a less quantifiable way for you to judge the way you spent your time. For the socially minded, like myself (on some levels), MMOs are as much a way to meet people and make...

    Half-Life: War - Multiplayer Mod Needs Coders

    Props to you for getting as far as you have, and whipping as many neat-looking models as you have. To echo some others, I can't code ('least on the level required for this beast!), but if I can help in some other capacity (art and writing being your best bets), send me a PM and I'd love to help.

    Avid modeling competition

    Do they have a way of knowing whether or you made in in Mod Tool or imported it?

    What is the Place of Digital Artists in the Future of Media?

    At risk of making a bad impression and infuriating someone who just spent what would appear to be at least 30 minutes on a post for my benefit, most of that went over my head. I was posting this in part to alleviate my own concerns about digital art's long-term career viability before throwing...

    Winamp Application Error

    Alrighty, since no one has any ideas, does anyone know any free media players out there that work as well? WMP doesn't even work for me. :(

    What is the Place of Digital Artists in the Future of Media?

    That's both encouraging and discouraging in one post. Nice one :dozey: :)

    What is the Place of Digital Artists in the Future of Media?

    Looks as though I have my work cut out for me then. Thanks for the feedback! :)

    What is the Place of Digital Artists in the Future of Media?

    Having been reading about the technological details in engines like UE3.0 - as far as I can tell, obscene levels of detail and quality - and about games like Will Wright's Spore - dynamic animation - I've been wondering where the artist fits into production in schemes like these. For UE3, it...

    Winamp Application Error

    Nope, no plugins here (that I remember installing), especially after I deleted my WA folder to reinstall.

    Winamp Application Error

    The problem is that the old version gives the error too - I've reDLed and reinstalled, but the problem is universal to Winamp for some reason (though nothing else seems affected).

    Winamp Application Error

    I just updated Winamp from 5.04 (which had the error as well) to 5.09 and I'm still getting the following error, any help you can offer would be awesome. (Image attached.)
