My friend had about the craziest setup I could imagine:

 

Mainboard: Gigabyte w/ AMD Athlon XP

PCI to SCSI controller (ultra-cheapo-no-name)

OS Drive: 32GB SCSI partitioned with Windows 98 and Win XP (dual boot) I was the culprit for that one :laugh:!

 

Data Drive: Western Digital 80GB? PATA IDE

 

Geforce 2 MX-400?

 

A bazillion fans all hacked (literally spliced wires) into the 5v rails of his PSU and precariously positioned/taped/stapled in all manner and direction!

 

He had contracted, yet again, another OS devouring infection from P2P downloading (he was obsessed with acquiring Music Editing software) ...so I was getting ready to reload his system again. It was the winter and I had forgotten to let his system warm up before powering it up... :blush: Gigabyte was none-the-wiser and sent him a replacement motherboard...

 

This was the system that I first saw the Thief games on BTW... :laugh:

 

(bah! wrong! it was his previous Slot-A system that I first encountered Thief on... creaky ole brainz...)

If you spent at least half the time you post nonsense here in doing something productive, the world would be a better place already.

You certainly have word-power... I keep fearing that I will pickup your affinity for consonance and start sputtering sly syllables in semi-sensible sentence segments... :unsure: Great :angry: Now I will only be employable at the Renaissance Fair :angry:

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
