    Be nice. He must be new here.

  2. Re:Partial solution: on True Wide-Screen with Digital Video? · · Score: 1

    To whoever modded this down as overrated: I've seen this technique used and it works pretty well. It's probably the lowest-cost way to get an anamorphic 720x480 frame > 16:9 aspect ratio.

  3. Re:Not just uneducated on Mystery Phenomenon Cleans Mars Opportunity Rover · · Score: 4, Funny

    That's because they used the competing brand of rover softener on that one.

  4. Partial solution: on True Wide-Screen with Digital Video? · · Score: 2, Informative

    The only thing I can think of is to use both an anamorphic 16:9 lens and the fake 16:9 camera mode.

    27MHz? .NET in 27MHz?? Are they farking mad?

    Well, lessee... 450,000 instructions/second? That would be 450KHz which is slower than my old PCjr.

  9. Re:Back on topic on Warzone 2100 Source Liberated · · Score: 1

    If so, why not look at using this graphics engine to implement your ideas?

    Becuase I'm going to use this project as an opportunity to learn OpenGL as well. :)

    Do it all yourself

    A friend of mine and I are designing an RTS that has all the features we want. It's a hell of an undertaking but I hope that we at least get the basic ideas coded.

    Crap, I fed a troll.

    My apologies! Really! No, not the 2x4! Ow ow ow ow!

  16. Re:This kind of attitude really upsets me on WoW Street Date Announced · · Score: -1, Troll

    Think about it. God has a use for you.

    What, like telling everyone else how to live and think and behave and then scare them into it by saying if they don't then the all-loving god will torture them for eternity?

  17. Super Monkey Ball 2 Hates Me! on Super Monkey Ball Deluxe Announced · · Score: 1

    I can't get past that damned Tree level! We hates it we does!
