Anything about how you get those awesome core-dumps, or why you don't get them...

Just a thought:

Aren't those u-turns a bit cheap and say " not realistic "?
I mean your bike is the size of 6 walls and u can just slip through holes smaller than 1 wall?

And often changes gameplay into wall-hugging wars.

Have a nice day!

Your cycle is *really* supposed to be two dimensional. If they knew how to animate that in the original movie, they would have.

maybe i should put my drive through walls patch back in the download section ?

I hate your bloody, hacking ass! (just kidding) You are a bad boy though... ...BAD! TRON means you don't get to pass through walls, silly rabbit!

One should not use the term "patch" when that is not what it is.

It is, was, and ever shall be a hack, and nothing more. You hack head folks that take unfair advantage of an online, multi-player game are a real prize. You cannot win straight up? You have to hack at the software in order to win a match to feel alive? Sad.

Oh... that's right... It was an exercise in your programming skills, right?

If that's the case, it should never have shown up online in a live game or be made available to any other unscrupulous cheater type characters. Some of us like our ladders to track real statistics, not some totally abberrant data injected by someone other than the legitimate player pool. Hahaahaha You hacking Llama! Hehehehe... :]

Watch out, or you'll get confused by the facts! Check out Sir Roger Penrose's new book, "The Road to Reality - A Complete Guide to The Laws of the Universe"

Reality:
- You replied to an old thread.
- Iceman's change won't help in network games because the server is of course unaffected by a changed client.

That's what I thought when I read WallyWallWhackr's post. Do cheating clients get kicked?

cheating clients are showered in the most delectable of cheeses, and allowed their choice from the finest tron's female community has to offer

wally: i was getting sick of players asking if there were any cheats so i wrote it for a laugh :lol:

my drive through walls 'patch' is for local games only and makes a fun game :D

if tried online then you can drive through a wall for all of about 1 second then the server kills ya :twisted:
