150 bucks, an hdd perhaps?, coulda just overheated, or got a hdd killer lol

lmao, we've known each other for years, it's hardly that kind of relationship kungfu ;x

or, if you REALLY want to hide it, a nice program is called Magic Folders, even the older versions do wonders hehe, I use it in the event...um...certain people show up at my house

did you download and configure ASE like the beginners guide says to? It tends to make this a lot easier.

what's wrong specialfighter, don't enjoy getting intimate with the heli blades of your own heli now and again harhar, but i'd agree, that bug i'm sure everyone would enjoy being fixed up, but i'd still put the new core ahead of bug fixes (because i'm sure a lot of them would be addressed with the re-write anyway) in priority. And as for door locking, eh, if i wanted them out of the car, i'm sure a stubby blast might persuade them heh

problem is, they'd have to make a crc check for every mod the chose to be, well "legal" i guess, for now it'd be a huge mess because you'd have to have a different copy of vice for every mod, and some way to select which version you wish to use

i ended up paying full price for the pc a few months ago _just_ to play mta, and i'll be damned if it wasnt worth the endless hours of fun haha

well, there is that one plugin gta radio or whatever, why don't you ask them to do it, i'm not sure of the link but it was mentioned quite recently

I have a female friend that plays everynow and then, twice a month tops :\ , but her pc sucks, maybe for her bday i'll get her a 1.2 ghz board or something lol

ya know, techtv did a deal earlier this month with a p4 dell server tower for like 350USD But i don't know if it's still going on. I'll try to find the site http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/ ... E400SCSAPP poop, guess we missed it, still not a terrible price tho i guess, but overall it'd be cheaper i think to just go with that refurb 1ghz

VC without doubt, gta3 is still fun now and then, but come one, helis and motorcycles hehe. I'm not sure how many static servers there are for gta3, but i know there is always someone on VC. Have Fun.

lol i forgot about this thread, oh yeah when i said convert it'd of been projecting to a wall and recording to hdd via a camcorder, but he won't let me borrow the f'in thing, bastard old man

never seemed like anything for debate to me, if I waste 5 shotgun shells to direct hits and the health doesn't go down, I leave doesn't matter if they have a high ping or they are a cheater to me...just a waste of ammo edit: 200th

i'd rather the lag mta has than say, ut2k3 where you go foward...back..oh wait...no foward...back lmao.. mta, aim ahead when they run, or go broad with molotvs, grenades or shotguns. I've played on the whole scale of ping ranges, and i'd rather have 40 than 200+

should work damn well locally, just depends on connection speeds past that

i dunno, our old one was fine, then after 5 years it died, they replaced it with the new model, and it sucked lol. When my dads office closed, he said i could have anything i could walk out with from the server room ::he underestimated me haha:: and the hub was one of the goodies

sounds like a damned logical and wicked idea. Imagine the nutty ass maps you've seen for simply fps, now imagine for vice...mmm...insanity lol Perhaps it could also get rid of gta3:mta too, import the map and cars, lol My only concern would be the size, most games meant to have maps imported have optimized formats, dling 250mb maps everytime might be a bit...exhaustive on hdd capacity lol

I'm glad i fixed my ping, was running 250-400 constant, killed my belkin router, put in a cisco hub, now i get a 80 ping in british servers from dallas ,texas lmfao

ya know, i was playing a jap import of soul calibur 2 in arcade, it actually records opponent clans moves and allows you to fight against them at any time. Perhaps you could record, say, Deathb's moves, learn to pwn him in training and come back and defeat him online (random name, no offense deathb hehe). This would probably still use a similar system, but instead of programming all the moves, they could just be recorded, also allowing for more variance. Perhaps it could be a hotkey system using the player id. Just a thought tho, kinda interesting

Correct, due to limitations in the games engine, they can only put so many vehicles in, normally when a car gets out of view, the game "destroys it" so your computer no longer has to keep track. In MTA, every car must be kept track of no matter the location. So basically the amount of cars you could possibly see in one spot in singleplayer, is the entire amount you can have in mta at this point.

i think it's mostly to do with u/d bandwidth, my friend runs a cs box sometimes on a 750mhz 512 ram, runs decent, but we are all within 5 miles, so that could be a factor too

lol i keep distinct rules about my pcs, one is no food or drink within 10 ft. they break the rules, i break their face ya know. I kicked a guy out of our hotel room at a convention because the ass blew my laptops speaker...because he didn't ask permission to use it...wonder if he had fun sleeping in the hall

altho i guess we could have told him to add more fans as well lol...if it's overheating that is :\

even on a good connection, people in vc can move _extremely_ fast in comparison to other games. Personally if i want to play a good clean running game, I have to reset my router so it gets a nice fresh connection, then I have to turn off and kill any dl including bittorrent, kazaa, web dls etc. It's possible that your upload stream is being absorbed by programs like kazaa.

it would kinda confuse me....having your right screen turn clockwise, and the other would be spinning as well lol. Suggestion kind of reminds me of the guy who had 20 monitors to play M$ flight sim. lmao, badass...but i hate the game...if u call it a game ;x
