Marine Finds Duct Tape on Mars

Posted by simoniker on from the sticky dept.

mhore writes "It seems that one of the biggest complaints about Doom 3 has been resolved. Thanks to Glen Murphy, you may now use your flashlight and weapon at the same time, thanks to the ingenious 'Duct Tape' mod! While some may think this ruins the game play, I disagree and think it is worth noting." There's plenty of other Doom 3-related coverage over at PlanetDoom, including a pointer to a new IGN review, which PlanetDoom considers "a lot more fair and balanced than some of the reviews we've seen so far", with an overall 8.9/10 score.

    For example, your main menu is totally unusable in Safari 1.2.2 on Mac OS X 10.3.4
    That's odd, it works perfectly fine on that exact configuration (Safari 1.2.2 (v125.8) and Firefox) on my 10.3.4 testing machine here, as well as the ones at work. I know it didn't with some versions of Safari that came with 10.3.3, but it did with the earlier versions. A bug report was submitted to the Safari dev team when it was noticed, and they did fix it, so I'm not quite sure what your machine is doing.

    I'm also seeing some problems with both OmniWeb 4.5 and Safari 1.2.2. Basically most of the links don't come up at all and the text overwrites itself. A re-load of the site got it mostly working under OmniWeb but it didn't do anything under Safari. I'm running Mac OS X 10.3.4 here also.

    I'm sending some screenshots your way in order to help you debug the problem. Hope they help.

    Maybe I need to eat more carrots or something.

    Of course we all know that that eating carrots != improved vision; as it was just British propaganda to cover up their new radar systems by claiming their pilots ate carrots to help them see at night.
