« on: September 11, 2008, 08:22:04 AM »I was listening to NPR (National Public Radio) and they had a whole chat about it.
NPR had an awesome song about Russian leaders the other day.

Yeah, Obama said "If you put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig." If you listen to the context of the speech, it's pretty obvious that he's talking about Washington. It's a bit of a stretch for Palin to get all offended by it, and it really looks kind of pathetic.

You, evidently.
Come on, we all are wanting it!
It's in development. That should answer you question. Please don't ask me if I have any idea of a release date.

Am I the only person getting 10?
y=0+3x (John starts at 0 and gains 3)
y=100-7x (Sam starts at 100 and loses 7)
0+3x=100-7x
10x=100
x=10
I don't see where you get 7/3 from, but maybe I'm just missing something.

This site might as well say "Paid for by Health Insurance Carriers" and likes to throw around a few loaded words and it's pretty obvious who they are trying to get you to vote for- they are a vested interest of course.

Mapping Help / Re: How do you use map2dif?
« on: September 08, 2008, 06:10:20 PM »
map2dif is an exporter. It doesn't have any interface at all. Basically, when you start it up, you're telling it to do the set of instructions you sent to it. Since you haven't given it any instructions, it just closes. There are two ways to get it to do what you want:
a. Get a program like Quark or Torque Constructor to do it for you. This is easy and highly recommended.
b. Use the command prompt. There are instructions on how to do this here.
As for installing map2dif, depending on what program you are using, it is different. Torque Constructor automatically sets it up for you. You can get Torque Constructor here. If you are using quark, follow this tutorial.
Tutorials for using both Torque Constructor and Quark can be found all over the Internet. I know Quark has video tutorials that cover everything from making a map to exporting it to loading it in Torque. I don't know about Torque Constructor, but it is easier to learn. It also handles 3d rendering a lot better than Quark. If you want complicated shapes like a sphere or torus, Quark is your best bet. Torque Constructor hates them. I use both, and frequently move interiors in progress back and forth between them to do different things.

Great camera angles, excellent use of special effects... Overall, a fantastic production, that expresses it's message in an extremely thought provoking and moving way. This is truly an innovative piece of media, pushing the boundaries of film work and redefining the cutting edge. In this short 45 second clip, nearly 50 years of movie making technology were rendered obsolete. Cheers to Andy and Carl- whoever you are, you are movie making gods and deserve nothing less. Once again, a fine work.
Troll his video with nice things? Could possibly be funny.
Come on guys :(
Here, to start you off:
Your genius rivals Kubrick. The elegant camera work is nothing to scoff at.
Not since Jaws 2 has a movie kept me so exhilarated. The bah-dah WHACK *blood* ... Great movie, but your talent outshines it by miles.
An EPIC movie of EPIC proportions.
Can't wait to see it on the big screen.
I watched it twice, no thrice! What is it that's like twice, except 8 times? I can't remember... Anyway, I got some pop-corn too. 5-star'd
Etc, etc.
Also, you should upvote eachother's comments.
