Re: Trouble compiling the Fortress Ai branch of .4

maybe there is a fix that could be suggested? Yeah, make it not broke any more. This looks like a boost problem, since it's happening before any actual arma code (other than the #include statement). So, Ummm, if you installed the boost library from a package, try updating the package to the newest ...

Re: Weird Spam

Hah! What I find weirdest about it is that it just doesn't read like someone actually trying to explain any of the content to anybody. It reads like it was google translated from automatically generated text in some other language. The obvious purpose is to get through spam filters to place links in...

Weird Spam

Ok, this is some unusual spam. It's not porn, nor is it penis pills or passports or any of the regular stuff. I thought I'd share it. However, due to the subject matter (and the obviously google translated essay), should this topic go south, we'll be quick to lock/remove it. So keep it civil, this i...

Re: Armagetron Arcade Mode

I'm gonna say "yes", and "it's something you can do with config files", but if you want more detailed help, we'll need a more detailed description of what you're trying to do, what hardware you're doing it with, etc.

Re: feature request: specific sounds for certain traps

Ok, so, a spammer brought this thread to my attention, but while reading it, I have to admit finding it amusing. First, there's a basis for this sort of thing. Mortal Kombat's infamous "Finish him!" voice being the one that comes to mind. In Borderlands, the various targets say different t...

Re: Sound irregularities, 0.4

I'm 99% certain the main problem is digital distortion, because it happens the worst/most when you have several cycles close enough to each other that their volumes, when added up, would exceed the word size of the sound card. I believe the other thing is a Feature-Not-A-Bug, at least to the extent ...

Re: My todo list and how it interacts with Armagetron

Ah, they only represent him for his books and journalistic writing. ;)

But there's an email to someone else connected with Black Mirror and Charlie Brooker, so I'll see what comes from that.

Thanks a lot, Word!

Re: My todo list and how it interacts with Armagetron

Geez, lemme get it published first. ;)

On a related note, though, if anybody here knows how/where I can submit a script to Black Mirror, I've got a killer story in mind that's right up their alley. I don't know if they take spec scripts, though, but it's a cool story.

I don't think they'd do it right, to be honest. But if they come a'knockin', I'll tell them what I want out of it. :)

Hulu might do it right.
