Another Descent could be so good (the whole idea of Descent has so much potential, in my mind, especially with all of the technology advances in games), or it could be a huge embarrassing failure; it depends on why they make it--I'd bet a lot that Descent was not conceptualized from a standpoint of ...

Excellent :) Finally apilot who admits seeing weapons fire and how well his shield bends the spoon! I think there might be a chance for you after all, Mr Anderson haha "so they boat to get me to catch a packet" - I think I resemble that remark. ;) @ Neo (& Bubba): I actually firmly be...

Bush also displayed again the full fervor of his messianic militarism. Several times he mentioned that the war offered a "historic opportunity to change the world." In one of his most emphatic moments, he said, "I also have this belief, strong belief, that freedom is not this country...

Shame on you, Suncho.

That's probably so, but we should expect better from government officials.

I saw that on TV a short while ago, Will. Something was up, it almost seemed like he was asking the question purely for the sake of the people watching (trying to bombard her, or something), then he tried very hard to push her past it. I think she did well in insisting on giving an answer. *edit* - ...

A single username and password, or is it for visitors/members?

Hey, thanks Mark.

A relatively short while ago the PXO site and rankings went down. After a while the site came back up, but the rankings have remained down. This morning I tried to restart my PXO server, which I had left running overnight, and it gave me an error which I believe is caused by an inability to reach PX...

"Sorry, kid, you've got the gift, but it looks like you" need to quit playing ground pounders. ;) "Ground Pounder" is just a fun term, for me, the ego implied is only feigned; I've played my share of First Person Shooters (mostly demos), but I still prefer Descent for these reaso...

Sergeant Thorne

Much appreciated, MD. I may just go that route, if I can't get a program to map it.

Sergeant Thorne

Thanks, Bubbalou. Thanks a lot, DigiJo, that should be the perfect solution!

*edit*: provided I can get the SideWinder software to work on XP
*edit #2*: I can't. :\

I was able to get the buttons on the controller to work by updating my Descent2 for Win95 to v1.2, but the hat switch, which is configured for sliding, is extremely slugish and can only be used to move in 4 directions (no angles). Is this just the way it is, or is there a way to make it perform norm...

While thinking on the subject of Descent today, I had an important realisation. Descent is the perfect alternative to all of these ground pounders that are so prevelant! Acts of violence in schools have become a big topic, and some people believe that violent computer games are at least partly to bl...

Sergeant Thorne

Very impressive and a lot of fun, Black Widow! I am usually no fan of weapon mods, but this just struck me as being really well done.

Sergeant Thorne

That's great.

I've always wished that my family would play Descent with me, especially my dad. Have a lot of fun! Don't let him get overly addicted.

Sergeant Thorne

Skybox is great!

Sergeant Thorne

I think it could be taken as a sign--if someone is for this, they are well out of touch with reality. Let people of other countries vote on American leaders?!

Would you happen to have a news source on the subject I could look at?

I think carrot top is biased.

Fighting against my GL nose-to-nose while bringing your Tri-Fusion to a full charge is cheating.

Knowing what someone is doing before they know it themselves is cheating.

Sergeant Thorne

I totally agree with WarAdvocate (he also makes a very good arguement about MAC MLers.... j/k, Fezzik ;)). You can try to argue it any way you like, but if a MAC MLer's ship doesn't conform to the standard D3 ships physics, it is cheating (perhaps, in some cases, not conciously), in my opinion, and ...

Concerning the BP, I thought it was really cool when some people started flying a new ship against me; something new to shoot at. It adds some variety to the game and can be a good incentive to buy the addon (it's nice being able to choose from among 4 ships :D). I, personally, would have had a blas...

Sergeant Thorne

Haha KaTaNa, right on. No, Kurupt, despite Buddha's antics every now and again, I don't know that I have ever been accused of cheating by a RIP. There's just a certain group who live in their own little world, wherein they can't be beat that badly, and a default D3 ship can't be that quick. ;) On wi...

Sergeant Thorne

Flying circles around someone with an ego disproportional to their piloting skill is cheating.

Sergeant Thorne

It has to do with the use of CSS, I think.  I've encountered the same thing in a site I'm working on.

Sergeant Thorne

When I tried to "Upload Avatar from your machine", I got several PHP errors. Just letting you know. I can't wait to be able to upload a logo.

Sergeant Thorne

Very cool!

Sergeant Thorne

Thank you very much, DCrazy. I had always been under the impression that MySQL was a very expensive piece of software (perhaps I was thinking of the Microsoft product). To find that this is free for my uses is great! I'm going to be tinkering with SQL queries in ODBC until I get the MySQL Serve...

No, no, movies are good, darn all those made-up baby names!

Thanks STRESSTEST, it's a lot of fun.

P.S. Is it possible to add questions?

I try to put a server up whenever my family's connection isn't being used, and I would be more than happy to update my levels. This whole thing sounds great! Â My thanks for your efforts, guys. <font color="#00FF00">edit:</font> Checkor, you mentioned "a list of zips". If I migh...

I've recently switched from ASP to PHP; particularly, right now, I'm looking into using a Microsoft Access database through PHP. I was a little frustrated at first with the apparent lack of any 'insert' command in any of the ODBC-compatible database function groups built into PHP, but I think I've p...

I'm curious, what is this partner program, exactly?

What movies are you guys getting out of this? http://www.descentbb.net/ubb/wink.gif Â So far I've got: Matrix, Agent Cody Banks, and more than likely some X-Files equivolent (*eerie music*).
