    Massive CPU price cuts - Coming July 22nd

    Hehe, that looked excactly as a spambot, just not with a 100 links to pornsites From what my friend has told me, Intel is dropping their prices the 22nd of July, but this might be the pricedrop, just a few days before schedule. Thx for the link, I'll compare it to local prices
  2. Indeed, most gaming devices (for consoles) are connected via USB, it's only the connector itself that is different. Also, for instance, the wireless Xbox 360 controlls can probably be tuned in to be accepted by a USB-reciver for a computer. Not sure though, heh Didn't find any on Google, but I'm almost falling asleep over here, so my searches may not be the best atm

    climatic changes, what do you think about that?

    Why don't we start a true world war, and do it for like 12 months, and all surviving will make a new world!

    climatic changes, what do you think about that?

    We (humans), like all other animals, are here for only one thing, try to defend our territories from rival species, and breed. But the problem is, our brains got so advanced, that we could take over animal territories: ever seen rats and pigeons in a town? That's our fault, just fyi. So, it's our own fault that we're destroying the world, it's the result of the greatness of mankind. If it wasn't for our brains, we wouldn't have these problems, but then again, we wouldn't know all the things we know now, such as the world is not the center of the universe. But of course, if we were more primitive we wouldn't have to know that I think that the most important thing is the choices of the individual, that's what's going to be the largest changes. Industry always got to use alot of fuel for transport and alike, so it's not going to change at the larger steps up. For example, EU is helping european farmers alot to get their excess food/crops (which is alot, since they get alot help with producing/harvesting alot of food/crops), so they send it to Africa. African farmers loose all their money since they cannot compete with the european excess food/crops, since EU even help with export, so the price is like half of the african prices. So now, African economy is crashed, and to solve that, the EU pumps in alot of money. An evil circle, based on control. That is a very good example of where you can spend money on better things, and work on better solutions for the whole world, instead of just concentrating on what's closest to you. This may stray a bit off topic, but what could happen, is that if the african societies rise by themselves, they can "fuel" themselves, and the EU could spend all that money on producing more effective energy (via research on nuclear power etc), and perhaps find a way to turn all the excess food and crops into energy. This is done to an extent, for example, with the popular fuel E85 (85% ethanol and 15% gas), which is purer (less CO to the atmosphere), gives more energy (you get longer on the same amount of fuel) and is relatively cheap (compared to gasoline). But more effecient fuels should be on the way, lets just hope that the welfare of mankind gets higher priority then the money of a single one. And of course that we let nations develop more sophisticated means of producing energy, seeing as NK now got oil in return for shutting down their nuclear power plant. I understand why, but I think it's a step backwards for all sides. Another result of human greatness. That's my opinions

    Did anyone notice

    That was just a random suggestion by someone, he/she could aswell filled out information about a norwegian troop if he/she wanted.

    Did anyone notice

    No, it's just a bad mix of units... If you want some correct stuff, please pay 1500USD EDIT: Nope, we are just whining. This could be placed/merged with this thread perhaps?
  8. Are you sure? Ending the process is the way to kill it, so the only thing stopping that would be some sort of virus not letting you kill it, or that you don't have permission to end processes via taskmanager. Always works for me when stuff hangs.

    Torch

    There were a few flashlight addons for OFP IIRC, but they were a bit dodgy. I think VBS simulates use of flashlights a bit better. Costs a bit more thouhg, hehe

    BIS, Please Read This

    Best way is a kick and #lock. Dont let them ruin your gaming, its what they want. If you're not admin that is.

    Torch

    The searchlight can be used ingame, AI follows for example helicopters (I think they do it by themselves, or by script). Search around EDIT: And also, a bit to the realism factor, the "standard soldier" doesn't allways wear NVGs, so a few searchlights in the base to light up any enemy copters is very useful, especially for the AA-guys
  12. wex-q

    Torch

    Yes, excactly. The NVG can't be spotted by enemy And, are you meaning torch (british english) or torch (am. english)? Because, there is a huge searchlight, can't find a picture though.

    BIS: Start a fund, and when you got enough money hire mercenaries to attack the owners of TKC and other cheating-communities Nah, but, what you really should do is just leave the server where a hacker/cheater is. Easiest way to get rid of them, too bad you must end your gaming though... Damn cheaters, so dishonest, they even cheat in a game. C'mon, get a life

    It has advantages over the 'standard' CPU when running the computer as a server (I'm a PHP/mySQL dev), but also, I figured it would be good with ArmA since Suma had good framerates on good settings with his 2.8Ghz Xeon, whilst many on the forums complain about terrible framerates with the Core 2 Extreme, 8800GTX and several gigs of ram. I might be wrong though

    No really. Don't blame the hardware if it's the users fault...

    Custom face and logo

    You miss the most obvious step, and blame it on the search engine? ts ts ts... Some searching Nothing wrong with the searchengine, the only problem could be wrong searchwords (Yeah, I know all aren't excactly the answers to your problems, but there are several threads covering the subject) Yeh, anyways, happy hunting with your new face!

    Mission name standard

    How about RPG for mission standard acronym (meaning RolePlayingGame)?
  22. wex-q

    help, please?

    Are you using the correct one, there is one full install, and one update-install? Also, which version of ArmA Edit are you using (and/or trying to install)? ---------------------- Some offtopic: Dell has always been overpriced, but I think that HP is good. They got pretty good prices with good stuff. Of course, always cheaper to build yourself!
