Re: What computer item would you put in a 50 yr time capsule

I think I read somewhere that CD's only last a few years, then they crap out. What's more, there's the issue of what the hell people will be using in 50 years... sticking something in a capsule might just be like finding an encrypted message for a special decoding typewriter. shit, don't batteries e...

Re: So, like, why isn't there a free Myth?

awesome post, elf. i wonder what branch of take2's vast corporate structure myth falls under? maybe we don't even have to reach someone in new york to get this approval. edit: in fact, i would first try to find out where the hell myth is in this company before talking about business plans. i might e...

Re: So, like, why isn't there a free Myth?

no, but I think Iron's right. the way to go, aside from praying somebody comes along with a brand new game, is to pray somebody takes a good freeware base and mods it into a myth-like game that's good/fun enough to go viral.

and that's a little more than i'm willing to pray for (much less attempt).

Re: So, like, why isn't there a free Myth?

Re: So, like, why isn't there a free Myth?

you're referring, I think, to the spond max (or whoever)/magma feud, when magma used to be hosted by xtrooper's school? I thought the issue was hate speech, or whatever, and that the issue was that someone made too much noise and the host (again, a school or something?) just dropped it rather than g...

So, like, why isn't there a free Myth?

I know, I know, lawsuit, Take2, franchise, blah blah blah. But seriously, what is the worst-case that could possibly happen if we started releasing Myth for free full download? Could anyone actually be sued for monetary value? (you sure?) If not, what do we really have to lose? The three most likely...

Re: Myth II 1.7.2 Public Beta

um, how do you do the poweruser thing? Do you just make a .txt called poweruser and put it in prefs? if so, I just did that and still had low fps, with the log: 2011-01-11 22:52:40 Myth II Build 368 running under MacOS 1049 (PPC) ---------------------------------------------- Loading poweruser.txt.....

Re: attn: anyone in contact with renwood

rationalizing may make you feel better about being scammed, but it doesn't change the fact that you were scammed. (though, if it helps, you can send me $5-$10 for all the work I've put into keeping this game alive over the years... I'd say it's a pretty great value since I've done so much of it for ...

Re: Is there a way to hide chat during Film Playing?

also, i don't know how much chat you're dealing with, but one trick is to stop the film right before you decide to record, wait for it all to fade up, then record a scene. you'll usually get less chat lines popping up that way (and this is also good if you want specific chat lines to appear in the s...
