Off Topic / Getting a new Wireless ADSL2+ Router

« on: May 25, 2009, 01:37:18 AM »

Well I'd like to get some Router names off people, I'm mainly looking for an ASDL2+ that supports Blockland hosting, I use Torque in ZW and BL and it drives me mad that I can't host for them.

My hosting provider sells a few routers
https://secure.internode.on.net/webtools/store (Click Hardware at top of list)
does anyone know if they're any good?

So a Wireless ADSL2+ router would be epic, I'm looking around $235 USD as a max price, any suggestions would be great :D

I am loving excited for this movie, been waiting for it since it was first announced. I'm hoping for this movie to be my 2nd favourite movie of this year (1st would be avatar), from the trailers it looks action decent at the least.

Also if you don't watch Star Trek: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fg_cwI1Xj4M

Games / BF2: Project Reality

« on: May 02, 2009, 05:59:20 AM »

http://www.realitymod.com/



Probably the greatest mod I have ever played, it turns BF2 into a Military sim. You have no hud except for close squad mates, that means no cross-hair no minimap no ammo counter, you do get a map if you press M. Everyone who plays this is mature and takes it seriously, its just how the mod works and its epic fun. If you don't have a mic you're letting your teammates down and you can't let your team know the position of enemy's. After playing this mod for a few hours you don't even realise that its actually BF2, it feels like a new better game.

I don't recommend this mod if you like to muck around, don't like to wait or like do rambo's, stealing vehicles when your squad isn't assigned to it will most likely get your perma banned from the server. Its really like real life except with BF2 aspects.

When a server start/next map players get a chance to make a squad and name it what you are doing, lets say I named my squad after one of the heli's, that means I'll pretty much spend the entire game flying a helicopter around picking up squads and dropping them off, though you really have to be skilled for that. All I do in this mod is lead squads or be in the squads as a combat medic, you still go around capping points but it takes absolutely ages, some times you spend the entire round defending a single point. Rounds can last up to an hour on average, when you "die" you lay on the ground for about 1-10 mins until a medic comes and saves you, you can give-up but that can cost Reinforcements points which is what you don't want to do. Weapons are somewhat accurate, unlike other reality mods for games, project reality actually lets you aim, I've killed people from a fair distance though I missed about 5-8 times before I even hit them once. The game modes are really great as well, insurgency is the US vs Terrorist pretty much, as a terrorist you get your car bombs and stolen RPG with WWII weapons.

There's a lot to be explained about this mod, all I can say is if you're looking for a Reality Mod that really is enjoyable and isn't too realistic, Project Reality really delivers. They're training server but they mostly empty, my suggestion is to join a server and sit in a squad and ask questions as you go along, quite a lot of people are new to it as well, every time I've been in a server we had at least 1 new guy.

Off Topic / X-Men Origins Spoiler ar... pfft hardly anything to spoil

« on: April 30, 2009, 11:47:51 PM »

JIMMEHHHH!!!! JIMMEEEHHH!!!!!!!

Yeah well nothing really happened, all the GOOD PARTS where shown in the trailer. The Story is horribly predictable, the only real things that get explained is how he lost his memory, it was 2 bullets... Oh and his name is Jimmy.

Overall it wasn't a let down, it was still enjoyable to watch. But if you're looking for a movie to fill in the gaps... you aren't going to find it in this movie. Mainly because everything was already explained except from Birth to memory lose... but same can be said about most of the X-men Characters anyway.

General Discussion / RRM Build Competition: The LMS Explorer

« on: March 17, 2009, 08:20:12 AM »

Build Competition
A Competition to rebuild/recreate the LMS Explorer from Rock Raiders.

Competition Rules:
First and foremost, you don't have to rebuild exactly the same ship, you can do your own design of a new LMS Explorer, who knows we might even rename it.

• Your Star Ship MUST be very large, it has to be large enough to look like it can carry 100's of vehicles & structures.
• You must build on Slate, other maps will cause future problems for us.
• I'm looking for ship with nice detail but not over the top detail, don't make parts of the ship repetitive.
• All entry's must have at least 5-7 images of all sides of the ship, Front Bottom side etcetera, a money shot is also nice. Please post in this thread with thumbnails not the full size images.
• Interior (Insides) are not required but would bit a nice Bonus Detail, more likely then not it will not count.
• You do not have to post your build saves until asked, which you would send it via a PM.
• Please don't repost one of your previous builds as an entry, I don't want them.
• You can have a maximum of 4 people working on your build, they have to do quite a lot to be counted towards the build.

If you fail to comply with these rules you'll loose scoring for the final decision.

Competition will end in around a month, if I find a ship that meets the standards I wanted, then the competition will likely end unless there are applicants who's builds are nearly finished.

Position Rewards:
1st Place - The 1st place Winner's LMS Explorer/Star Ship will be used in Rock Raiders Mod, 1st will also have a definite beta invite (Possibly access to developing beta) and of course bragging rights.
2nd Place - Beta invite, 2nd will have a definite position in private beta.

Off Topic / Watchmen (No bad spoilers)

« on: March 05, 2009, 01:13:05 AM »

\
Just finished watching it, its a good movie, a ton of gore, too much loving nudity (Tell you later on) and some epic back story's :3. Its rated MA +15 in Aus so most people on these forums won't see it unless they illegally download it or watch it after DVD release. I love the gore, its just so epic when *those bad things* happen.

A need to know spoiler, unless your gay or a chick.
The blue guy, never look below his waist after the love scene with him and the yellow chick, he never puts his G-string back on... its disturbing, best part every one acts normal even though he's naked.
