Suggestions & Requests / Someone fix/add Lightning, Rain and Mist.

« on: August 15, 2009, 12:45:20 AM »

I remember MLD made like a lightning rain and mist Add-On long ago for the mission editor. It was pretty awesome, it had sound in it too!

The thing is, for some reason it was added to the list of Crap-Ons and can't be executed anymore. Why is this so, and can someone please fix it so that it will work properly as so?

tl;dr: Someone fix Lightning-Rain-Mist Add-On, if needed I will upload the original.
Someone who is good at coding PLEASE.

We at Courage TV have been in contact with the shows creator J. Dilworth and he says he would love to start the show up aging (so this isnt one of those stupid fan petitions that dont have a chance of making it happend.) He says that if we want new episodes of the show than we should contact the head of Cartoon Network. So now we just have to show Cartoon Network that people still wont to see new episodes!!!

Interesting parts in bold. Try and read through the spelling errors.

Off Topic / Internet randomly drops.

« on: July 30, 2009, 05:13:07 AM »

Ever since we've gotten our new router/modem in one for Verizon FiOs (Fiber Optics) internet, more specifically since they put in a new fiber optic wire that just goes around the living room instead of through the kitchen, the master bedroom, my bedroom and then the living room, my internet randomly drops. Even MORE specifically, at night.

I don't know the router specs, but I'll get that tomorrow.
I have Verizon Fiber Optics internet, and right now for some reason the signal quality is Very Good and says 48 mbps. This is seriously unusual since I'm barely 3 yards and a wall away from it, and it has strong signal strength. Even if I'm 1 yard away from it on my bed it sometimes drops. Keep in mind this is my laptop we're talking about. My desktop is fine.

Off Topic / Odd noises of the neighborhood

« on: July 24, 2009, 04:16:05 AM »

I'm at my friends house for a sleepover (Yes, it's 4 AM lol). We just started hearing these odd yelping noises. It stopped a while ago. They sounded like a mix of a puppies and a woman. It was not human, and not animal. What the forget could have it been?

Games / Streets of Sim City

« on: July 16, 2009, 01:17:11 PM »

I remember playing this classic game when I was 5-6.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streets_of_simcity

Basically you drive in a car with weapons and stuff and you race around/blow up cars. The cool part? You can drive in cities that you made in SimCity 2000 or in prebuilt ones.

It's currently listed as abandonware. I found a copy and I'll upload it to Mediafire.

EDIT: The above is a French version of Streets of SimCity.

If you or anyone else can find an English version PLEASE FFS POST IT.

Off Topic / How bad my laptop is(Fixed), discussing how bad our computers are :D

« on: July 15, 2009, 04:36:56 PM »

You guys know as well as I do how aggravating it is to be stuck in a boring place with little or no video games. Try a restaurant dinner where everyone speaks in a foreign language you don't know, and there's no one to talk to, not to mention the food sucks. But there's only one disappointment.

That disappointment? Finding out how bad your laptop really is. I know I complain about my laptop a lot and how much it sucks. But when you hear this next sentence you will loving stuff bricks.


MY LAPTOP CANNOT PLAY DOOM II ON HIGH QUALITY.
Serious. Walking around is fine but shooting a weapon or looking at another monster is painfully laggy.
forget. I can't wait to recycle this stuff and buy something decent, oh I don't know, maybe a laptop that really doesn't suck.

EDIT: Holy forget, as if it couldn't get worse, it can't even play it in LOW QUALITY. Srsly, wtf?
I found the cause being sound effects loving it all up because incompatibilities with my sound card and the sound cards required by DooM II. I'm now playing with just the music of DooM II.

Discuss how much your computers suck anyway.

Games / Command & Conquer 4 announced.

« on: July 13, 2009, 12:19:40 PM »

I don't really know how to react. Excited or don't care. Excited because...well...look at the loving screenshots. Don't care probably cause EA will plaster chicks all over it and attempt more advertising for it.

Link.

EA Los Angeles announces that Command & Conquer 4 is in development and will ship to retailers in 2010. As the next game in the best-selling RTS series, Command & Conquer 4 will reveal the epic conclusion of the Tiberium Saga.

Interesting stuff in bold.

Discuss what will be the epic conclusion!!!1!1!!1

Off Topic / Back on Firefox.

« on: July 13, 2009, 11:56:32 AM »

I'm sick of Google Chrome. There. I said it. It's useful in a few ways (incognito mode and individual processes for each tab), but other than that I hate it.

Lots of images not loading, Youtube videos not loading/appearing either, and not loading some pages for unknown reasons. In other words I'm going back to Firefox. Yay me!

Clan Discussion / ____ of the Brick/[_otB]

« on: July 02, 2009, 06:17:43 PM »

There's at least 3 clans that use [BotB] or use something like Block/Builders/Bitches/Boobs and so on and so forth. Please for God's sake make up something original. ___ of the Brick isn't original and neither is [_otB]. Everyone using it is basically ripping off of Reformers of the Brick/[RotB].



tl;dr/too stupid: GET BETTER CLAN NAMES.

Drama / "no u" and other such unfunny stuff everyone regurgitates over and over. Updated.

« on: June 18, 2009, 01:35:25 AM »

Remember when EVERYONE (including me) said "no u" a couple times just for laughs long ago?

Looks like people and times change.
"no u" is never at all a comeback or in any way shape or form supposed to be actually used for something serious. It's an old handicapped meme that granted a lot of people including me used. But now it's being repeatedly eaten and vomited back up to be used again and it's a

STOP SAYING "NO U".

And while I'm still here; Purposely saying "nao" or purposely misspelling words to actually act like it is stupid. It's barely funny as a joke.

On top of Muffinmix's post (scroll down), stop using the same jokes over and over again too. Christ you're playing a building game, a game that requires creativity. Use that creativity and your half-decent sense of humor to at least make something everyone can at least laugh to themselves.

tl;dr:

• "no u" isn't funny and neither are the other stuff jokes everyone uses. Get new ones ffs.
• Purposely doing bad grammar/spelling for a certain reason is stupid. Doing it for a joke isn't funny either. It makes you look like your the only one laughing.
• BE loving CREATIVE AND GET GOOD JOKES.

Hey look people still are stupid enough to keep using stuff like lolcats and other crap ripped from AOL "super funny sites!!!!!!!!!", or unfunny people like you from encyclopedia dramatica or whatever.

Stuff like this includes "POST CAT PICS HERE", "LOOK AT THIS BABY HE DA MAN", "POST FUNNY PIX HERE LOOOOOL" and other such stuff is annoying.

Gallery / General Nick's NWB Application :D

« on: June 15, 2009, 08:42:16 PM »

Hi. I wanted to get in NWB (obviously), so I took a Lego set and sort of remodeled it into what I think is better.

I don't know if I can find the original set on LEGO.com or anything, but I'll check later.

On with the pics:

(Please do not take note that every picture has 57 FPS)
The house itself.

The other side (Car not included).

The back patio balcony thing for grills and barbeques.

Underneath the patio/balcony.

View of the hallway, closet, dining table/chairs and kitchen.

More of the kitchen.

Hallway and Closet. The closet opens and closes via toggleEventEnabled and set Ray Casting on. The little "elevator shaft" type thing is a half-gravity zone for easy up and downs without the jet.

Golden statue of me for decoration, curtains, door to the back patio and my bed with me on it. The bed is modeled after my IRL bed.

The small balcony connected to my bedroom.

Rest of my bedroom, with door to another front balcony. Chair pulls in and out from under desk, and it's not a boombox contrary to what MrCookie says, it's my laptop and speakers. My actual computer is underneath. Bed too. I couldn't make a real LCD flatscreen monitor like the one I have without it taking up the whole window behind it.

And so there you have it. My app to NWB is finally finished. Total bricks is ~1500.

Off Topic / I GOT A CALL FROM BILL MURRAY AND HE SAID...

« on: June 15, 2009, 02:20:23 PM »

My ghostbusters pre-order is coming in. I was freaked out when I heard his voice.
I didn't pick it up since it said OUT OF AREA and usually they have some chick tell you your pre-order is coming in.

Last week they called me and said Prototype is coming in and the girl was like "Your pre-order for the game...PROTOTYPE (she yelled it)... is coming in tomorrow!"

He also told me I can get a discount for trading in old games I don't want.
