CS:S works fine, improved FPS, only 3rd party games broken for me.
Sucked at first, then i resterted my computer, i suggest everyone try that.
Lister: add -dxlevel 80 to the command line to run in DirectX 8
If you have silver it might autodownload.
Also, it seems to give me quite a good fps boost in HL2SP, Im gettig 10 more fps(40->50) while the texture quality is set to high(was medium)
Will post CS:S results soon.
It's starts in dx8 just fine, but when i start the stress test it switches itself to 9 :/
EDIT:Maybe im wrong, HL2sp started in dx9, maybe i just read it wrong. on a related note, Hl2 sp works fine for me, with improved fps, ill check CS:S again soon.
EDIT2:found the problem, HDr is on by...
Mine runs at about 10spf(yes, seconds per frame), and took like 5 minutes to start a listen server, haven't tried joining an online one yet :(
It also switched me from dx 8 to dx9 when i rand the stress test, which was 1/4th of normal fps :/
Something's going on. The available bandwidth just went up quite a bit. They wouldn't need much (if any) extra for a normal engine update :/, especially not 4 gigabits per second more :P

I am attempting to run a Half-Life server on this Linux box, but I can't get it to allocate the correct port. I have forwarded the port to this computer using my router ( http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/37/screenshot16gf.png {In that screen it's set to a different port than in the dump...
I doubt EA has any control over Valve with this. IF EA gave valve terms they didn't like, valve could have easily gone to activision(publishing DoD) or somesuch.
I'm not sure about the first pic. It's not from the video, gordon only had a crowbar in the e3 2003 video, but there is clearly a shotgun in that pic. The old shotgun model as far as I can tell.
EDIT:look at the date, those screens were added in 03.
It's in one of the HL2 gcf's, but i forget which one. It's a game soundtrack, so all the music has to be somewhere in the game files. Finding it is that hard part :P

The mod tool is still at 4.2, but I assume they will update it soon.
Just figured I'd tell ya, because a lot of people here seem to like XSI :)
EDIT:also, sry if this should be in the software forum, but I figred i'd go for here as...
