Get a zaurus It does all you want and more. Keyboard I'm not sure about. I know you can use an IR keyboard and I think I heard of an adaptor for plugging a keyboard into its sereal/docking port. It does have a little keyboard built in which I find works great. With email, you can get a wifi card and...

Where did he advertize it? There are lots of legal uses for BitTorrent. Fansubs anyone?

Oh, and music aint warez either.

Cool! I can't wait tell he finishes it!

Geo-Mod sucks, because it's too easy for people to make a big hole in the floor and for players to get stuck in the floor (or in HighOctane's game's case, the walls and the ceiling, too). Aww, I never had that problem. Though, adding a climb key in the game would have helped a lot. You can avoid th...

It would still be nice to be able to go under water. Also it would be nice to have blow upable secrets (at least like D3 had) and other things that require "changing" the environment slightly. Of course it's up to them to design their game how they like. I will still play it no matter what...

I guess that's why buisineses are not installing SP2, including the place I work. You could always boot a linux live cd and then copy the stuff you don't want to lose off the hard drive before you reinstall your OS.

Here's a suggestion, which is completely unrealistic, but fun to think about anyway: 1) Create a physics engine that uses true finite element analysis. Realistic physics... Using Suncho 's method of criticism, how would all that make the game more fun? One thing you could get with realistic physics...

Also I run a linux dedicated server, and have noticed that it randomly crashes with a Signal 11 after it prints a message along the lines of "Received corrupted network code" or something like that. A Signal 11 is a crash btw. Perhaps this should be looked into before release of the 1.5 p...

Good point. To me though I enjoyed it, kind of a "King of the Hill" type level. And also, the missiles (megas and smarts) respawn in random locations so eventually you would be able to aquire it.

It was a toss up between D1 and D3. But I voted D3 because I like the story more

I'm guessing he either gave up or got past it sence he posted this question quite a while ago.

I remimber minerva. I liked it a little. My favorite levels were always the original d1 chaos levels. Levels 1 and 2 were absolutely genious! Some guy named lothar, or was it Merlin, one of those I think, would usually join and totaly own me. Something about strafing by and firing a mega up the volc...

You may notice that there are sections of the ceiling in the Hellion's room that seem to be destructible but actually aren't. Yeah, I noticed that there are three. One of them even has a mega missile behind it. I found that out by telling the guide bot to go find a powerup. The guide bot then heads...

http://www.avault.com/featured/descent3/enemy.asp?name=hellion I linked the page explaining the Hellion. I don't remimber him having any offspring, or being able to blow up any walls in the cave. Or even changing weapons depending on which one you fire at him. Was this all before the patches? Also, ...

What level? The space station?

Here is a shot in the dark. Are any of the capacitors on your motherboard leaking? I and a friend both had an ABIT-KA7 board (mine with an athlon 800, voodoo5) which had bad capacitors. His capacitors "exploded" and leaked all over his video card and other things, while mine just leaked a ...

you can login to the original thing. just go username: [url=http://Dont-you-dare-spam-me-...com]arbitar@verizon.net[/url] password: password :P I couldn't figure out how to put the smiley in the password field. :? Anyway, that's a cool article. Aww the good old days where games actually inovated...

Yes, Red vs Blue is funny! I love episode 6 -- "What is that music!?!" as the warthog approaches. ROTF!!!

I assume you have tried different ram as it was mantioned in another post above. It may not even be "bad" ram, just ram that is incompatable with your motherboard. I have had many problems similar to this and *finally* after usually a day or two of reinstalling and trying different things ...

aww, just go get a free yahoo email account guys. It's got 100Mb of space.

Also the Lords Prayer is in the bible more than once, I think it apears two or three times. It is slightly different each time.

Here's mine:


Click for full size. See the descent3 icon on the right side WOOHOO!

Yes, but that still drove me nuts because the hat switch was only a 4-way hat, not an 8-way which the sitdewinder is (if im not mistaken).

What is it? The page wont load for me.

I could never get it to work on my system with win98 (built in 2000 starting at 500 Mhz Athlon and up). I remimber I tried everything, the patch, reinstalling windows, drivers, bla bla bla. It never worked, I just had to use it as a Thrustmaster which meant no base buttons or slider. Not having thos...

Mmmmmm level18 music mmmmmmm.

Aww, no more poll. :? Thanks guys for the help. :) I rebooted the machine and and switched the switch on the back a couple of times like some of you suggested and it seems to be working right now. I went into Descent3 and set it up and started a game. At first it would randomly jerk the ship in diff...

Is it possible to get this stick working? I connect it and select the Sidewinder driver but all it does is alternate: "Connected", "Not Connected" hence it is not useable. I use it fine in linux on my machine but I want to get it working on my dads windows box so we can play D3. ...

Wow, it is wonderful to think there just might actually be a 1.5 patch. This is exciting. Maybe I will soon be able to join more maps besides Stadium and a few others. I'm running D3 on Linux and would love to test it. I can't believe I never came here before. I have been Descenting sence Descent 1 ...
