I think you put the player in a room on the terrain (or over it), texture it a certain way, then hit the link to external room or some such. Been a while since I played with d3edit though...

I'd agree. Although when he posted about it on the pure boards he didn't really seem bothered by the loss at all.

Which sucks since I can't even afford to fly a BS in pvp atm. :(

I would wager power supply. Quit working so I replaced it. I didn't notice the leakage until I was hooking the new one up. Then I thought, what the hell, so I fired it up :) I have more than one machine so it wasn't exactly 'mission critical' that it not catch on fire or anything.

Idle question. On one of my boxes, I've got two or three capacitors that are beside the cpu socket that leaked a little bit it would seem.

Example then. First mission of the main d2 campaign. I'm sitting between the switch that opens a wall and the hidden door that leads to the ammo rack. All the bots on the other side are firing at that hidden door to try to hit me.
