    hl2 vs farcry

    FarCry refuses to play on my system... I get into the game and it goes about a frame every 5 seconds on the lowest settings and performs just the same on ones that fit my hardware... dunno what's wrong. I sure hope HL2 doesn't do the same thing :-\

    Half-Life2 keepin It Real?

    It's not even ebonics. He's just retarded. I have friends who speak ebonics... they wouldn't be caught dead putting "flava" into a PC game like HL2 lol : )

    Far Cry SP demo

    Anyone get this problem where the game just doesn't work? It takes forever to load the level, then when it gets in... it's like I'm trying to run it on a 486 or something. It changes from bright to dark ever frame. I see about 1 frame every 5 seconds, it's just all messed up. Not playable at...

    worst robbery ever!

    I saw this on my clan website a week or two ago. I can't believe anyone would be stupid enough to bring a gun to a robbery and not know how to use it!

    What's up with that?

    Yeah, you guys are probably right... but does anyone work on anything other than SDK? I do all sorts of little side projects that I run into problems with occasionally. I do have a problem with a really simple tax calculation program that calculates the tax for a family based on income... my...

    What's up with that?

    I'm talking about the lack of significant topics in this section of the forum, of course! This is pretty much my favorite part of the HL2.net forums. It makes me sad to think that there aren't enough coders in the community to keep this part of the forum bustling... so where are all the...

    hello world

    Of course it will work in the future. Why wouldn't it work in the future? Are you actually trying to get me to use int main instead of void main? It's not like void main is a cheap hack... really what's the big deal? :angel:

    Far Cry SP demo

    Yeah, dude. Haven't you ever heard of Silence of the Lambs? Joe Dirt was just making a parody of it. 30kb/s torrent d/l... DAMMIT. 45% ain't bad... only like 2 hours left : ( Don't want to start another download for fear that this one would have finished first lol.

    Subway vs. Quizno's

    Has anyone ever heard of Togo's? I'm just trying to see if it's just a bay area california thing... cuz Togo's makes some damned good cold sandwiches.

    Will Visual C++ 5 Enterprise do?

    Personally, I hate the color coding in MSVC++. You can edit what colors mean what, though. I like borland's source editor because it uses bold letters for reserved words and stuff, and makes comments italic, all in addition to more eye-friendly color coding than MSV-SUCK :-D

    Far Cry SP demo

    To ye who could not read that german website... slap thyselves across the forehead, and read the last word of the link... the last word is deutsch, which is obviously a language used in germany. Change the word to "english" and you shouldn't have a problem anymore : )

    Will Visual C++ 5 Enterprise do?

    It should do just fine. Really you could do it all with notepad and some command line compile tools, but MSVC 5 should work great : ) Just one question, however... are you planning on using MSVC 5 to read the leaked source code, or the SDK? If you only did a few console apps before, you most...

    Buying new C++ Compiler

    Are you a student? I got Borland C++ Builder Professional Edition from my college bookstore for 100 bucks! Of course, the license is for educational use only, but the contents of the package are identical to the retail one : ) I actually have a copy of MSVC++ 6.0 Enterprise edition. I don't have...

    hello world

    Why wouldn't void be ANSI compliant? Using a non-value-returning main is more efficient, and I believe that C++ doesn't care either way. There's no real exception handling done in simple console apps like hello world, so I don't think a value returning function is really necessary. MrBadger...

    Buying new C++ Compiler

    Yeah same here. I have both, but I started on Borland. I'm now in the process of learning to use MSVC++ by taking a tutorial on writing code using the windows API.

    Buying new C++ Compiler

    Personally, I find borland C++ builder to be a lot easier to use than MSVC++. MSVC++ has a better compiler, I think. It's more efficient, too. It's really easy to create windows programs in borland, though. REALLY easy. The only problem with doing windows programs in borland's radical...
