    Check out Space Rangers 2 but make sure you get it thru Stardock (no SecuROM).

    You're out of your mind. Pirates is an absolute blast.

    AFAIK It's not a problem. And it's really not anything I can solve considering I just draw what the field guys bring me. MDU's are just the last thing they get done according to their game plan. We're working on them now. Apparently they have to hook up everybody in any county they are getting permission to do FTTP, at least that's the way I understand it.

    Verizon. We'll try to draw faster :D

    That's nice but the Journal Square *Central Office* encompasses both Jersey City & Hoboken (& a few other municipalities).

    Right as this article was posted I was starting to draft the fiber distribution plans for an area in the Journal Square C.O. in Hoboken, NJ.

  8. Re:Just like NWN... on Neverwinter Nights 2 Review · · Score: 1

    One of our mod's builders started recreating our module in NWN2 mostly to get familiar with the toolset. The 4 areas (& a worldmap, I forgot that part) they've created ended up being 60MB or so total. Our NWN module is 360 areas.

    Like I said, average area size = 15MB

    I've been using the middle button in the manner you've described in NWN for 2 1/2 years now. Windows & Linux.

    For more single player mileage out of NWN, download the Penultima, Demon, & Shadowlords series of modules. The Endless Nights series is also fairly nice. The Darkness over Daggerford module was supposed to be released as a premium module but instead was released for free. Incredibly polished, it has a true Baldur's Gate / Icewind Dale feel to it. It even has an overland map of the region & random encounters while traveling.

  12. Just like NWN... on Neverwinter Nights 2 Review · · Score: 2, Informative

    ... it's going to suck until they release two expansions & "borrow" a lot of custom content from players. Oh yeah, good luck running an immersive Persistent Online World with it. I was thinking about converting the PW I run to NWN 2 but realized that the average area size was around 15MB which would in turn put the NWN2 version of the my module up around 5GB in file size. Sorry, but I don't feel like buying $3000 in hardware to run a game server.

    Oh yeah, the DM client also crashes the server upon entry. Way to go.

    These guys used bullshit popups in web browsers to convince people they needed to buy an Anti-Spyware product. Go get'em Washington.

    Why, you can't protest on private property without the owners permission anyhow. We're talking about public property here.

  22. Voting in Florida on Voting Machine Glitches Already Being Reported · · Score: 1

    I voted in Florida this morning (a small backwater county in Northeast Florida if any of you care) & when I walked in I was offered a choice of paper or electronic voting of which I took the paper ballot, of course. I was happy to see the single electronic machine was pretty much being ignored by my fellow voters. The paper ballot was a simple "fill in the circle" type ballot (same as last election year actually). I then fed it into the scan-tron & went on my way.
