I had the same problem. What I did was to follow the suggestion of Avon and now it works perfectly. Reinstal (or at least get rid of all addons), make sure it is 1.96 before next step Reinstall FDF. (full version, not patched) Put any other mods (e.g. BAS) into the "addons" folder not "Res Addons". The rest of your favourite addons can go into "Res addons" Sounds too logical, and too simple, I know but for me this Step 123 in a row on a clean OFPversion made it all work And when you say CTD then I know what you are talking about!

A country must be able to defend or at least accept such criticism if it has decided to attack and occupy a country in a unilateral act. THAT IS A MORAL OBLIGATION

Did they ask the killed civillians too? "was it worth it? You are dead but free!

I like your Bush mentallity of arguing: Just because religious people don't like admitting that hitler was religious, doesn't mean he was not ? I dont reply to that silly kindergarden arguments. I told you that the issue has been researched in the past by several historians. And no conclusion can be drawn. Actually it is more likely that he wasnt. I dont count your voice as competent in this area because A: you never read "mein Kampf" and consequently cannot judge from a single quote B: You are taking Hitlers statements as what he believes in Two limitations that cut your competence down to 0% Your biggest mistake is assuming that hitler wasn't religious because you don't like the idea. And I dont need these silly acusations. Dont believe you can bark at me without getting an Echo! Personally, I dont give a shit whether Hitler was religious or not and I give a shit about what you think he believed in!

Since we trust so much in statistics Here comes a pretty scary one from combined efforts of CNN, USA Today and the Gallup-Institute. 71% consider the US to be an occupational force 52% consider attacks against US soldiers as totally legal!

"Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord." "My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter." "I believe today that my conduct is in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator."   [Adolph Hitler, _Mein Kampf_, pp. 46] "What we have to fight for...is the freedom and independence of the fatherland, so that our people may be enabled to fulfill the mission assigned to it by the Creator."     [Adolph Hitler, _Mein Kampf_, pp. 125] "It may be that today gold has become the exclusive ruler of life, but the time will come when man will again bow down before a higher god."     [Adolph Hitler, "Mein Kampf" Vol. 2 Chapter 2] Careful Baron, enemy teritory. I may remind you that half of our german and history classes deal with the topic of Hitler. Consequently we know what we are talking about. Nice reference to chapter 2.  The only time when Hitler brings into play the idea of religion in an analytical way is in chapter one. Es ist eine sehr schöne, meist aber auch billige Erklärung, wenn man das Wesen eines Menschen als "tiefinnerlich religiös" bezeichnet. Es wird vielleicht auch einige wenige geben, die durch eine solche ganz allgemeine Bezeichnung sich selbst beschrieben fühlen, ja denen sie sogar ein bestimmtes, mehr oder minder scharfes Bild jenes Seelenzustandes zu vermitteln vermag. Da aber die große Masse weder aus Philosophen noch aus Heiligen besteht, wird eine solche ganz allgemeine religiöse Idee dem einzelnen meist nur als Freigabe seines individuellen Denkens und Handelns bedeuten, ohne indes zu jener Wirksamkeit zu führen, welche der religiösen inneren Sehnsucht in dem Augenblick erwächst, da sich aus der rein metaphysischen unbegrenzten Gedankenwelt ein klar umgrenzter Glaube formt. Sicherlich ist dieser nicht der Zweck an sich, sondern nur ein Mittel zum Zweck; doch ist er das unumgänglich notwendige Mittel, um den Zweck überhaupt erreichen zu können. Dieser Zweck aber ist nicht nur ein ideeller, sondern im letzten Grunde genommen auch ein eminent praktischer. Wie man sich überhaupt darüber klar werden muß, daß die höchsten Ideale immer einer tiefsten Lebensnotwendigkeit entsprechen, genau so wie der Adel der erhabensten Schönheit im letzten Grunde auch nur im logisch Zweckmäßigsten liegt. Indem der Glaube mithilft, den Menschen über das Niveau eines tierischen Dahinlebens zu erheben, trägt er in Wahrheit zur Festigung und Sicherung seiner Existenz bei. Man nehme der heutigen Menschheit die durch ihre Erziehung gestützten religiös- glaubensmäßigen, in ihrer praktischen Bedeutung aber sittlich- moralischen Grundsätze durch Ausscheidung dieser religiösen Erziehung und ohne dieselbe durch Gleichwertiges zu ersetzen, und man wird das Ergebnis in einer schweren Erschütterung der Fundamente ihres Daseins vor sich haben. Man darf also wohl feststellen, daß nicht nur der Mensch lebt, um höheren Idealen zu dienen, sondern daß diese höheren Ideale umgekehrt auch die Voraussetzung zu seinem Dasein als Mensch geben. So schließt sich der Kreis. Natürlich liegen auch schon in der allgemeinen Bezeichnung "religiös" einzelne grundsätzliche Gedanken oder Überzeugungen, zum Beispiel die der Unzerstörbarkeit der Seele, der Ewigkeit ihres Daseins, der Existenz eines höheren Wesens usw. Allein alle diese Gedanken, und mögen sie für den einzelnen noch so überzeugend sein, unterliegen solange der kritischen Prüfung dieses einzelnen und damit solange einer schwankenden Bejahung oder Verneinung, bis eben nicht die gefühlsmäßige Ahnung oder Erkenntnis die gesetzmäßige Kraft apodiktischen Glaubens annimmt. Dieser vor allem ist der Kampffaktor, der der Anerkennung religiöser Grundanschauungen Bresche schlägt und die Bahn frei macht. Ohne den klar begrenzten Glauben würde die Religiosität in ihrer unklaren Vielgestaltigkeit für das menschliche Leben nicht nur wertlos sein, sondern wahrscheinlich zur allgemeinen Zerrüttung beitragen. Ähnlich wie mit dem Begriff "religiös" verhält es sich mit der Bezeichnung "völkisch". Auch in ihr liegen schon einzelne grundsätzliche Erkenntnisse. Sie sind jedoch, wenn auch von eminentester Bedeutung, ihrer Form nach so wenig klar bestimmt, daß sie sich über den Wert einer mehr oder minder anzuerkennenden Meinung erst dann erheben, wenn sie als Grundelemente in den Rahmen einer politischen Partei gefaßt werden. Denn die Verwirklichung weltanschauungsmäßiger Ideale und der aus ihnen abgeleiteten Forderungen erfolgt ebensowenig durch das reine Gefühl oder das innere Wollen der Menschen an sich, als etwa die Erringung der Freiheit durch die allgemeine Sehnsucht nach ihr. Nein, erst wenn der ideale Drang nach Unabhängigkeit in den Formen militärischer Machtmittel die kampfesmäßige Organisation erhält, kann der drängende Wunsch eines Volkes in herrliche Wirklichkeit umgesetzt werden. Jede Weltanschauung, sie mag tausendmal richtig und von höchstem Nutzen für die Menschheit sein, wird solange für die praktische Ausgestaltung eines Völkerlebens ohne Bedeutung bleiben, als ihre Grundsätze nicht zum Panier einer Kampfbewegung geworden sind, die ihrerseits wieder solange Partei sein wird, als sich ihr Wirken nicht im Siege ihrer Ideen vollendet hat, und ihre Parteidogmen die neuen Staatsgrundgesetze der Gemeinschaft eines Volkes bilden. Unfortunately you dont understand that very well I gues  . But let me put it this way. Whether or whether not Hitler was a relgious man was never proven. one of the most sophisticated professor who approached the issue wasnt willing to give a final conclusion. However the conclusion to be drawn from what he writes here is clear. Hitler wrote "mein Kampf" not for himself. He wanted people to read it, and being a master of propaganda he wanted to create a train of thought that would attract the sympathy of christian germany. And this train of thought starts in chapter 1. Here he shows that relgion is worth nothing if not enforced by brutal force. He wanted to twist the image of a peaceloving god into a god of war. Why so? Because of 2 reasons: a) he wanted to convince people that jesus was killed by jews and wants revenge. Believe shall not be enough, it must be put into action. Being a believer is no compliment. Being a man of action is. (do you see the hidden message?) b) Even during times of war he wanted to the church not to stand in his way but to cover his back with propaganda. (especially since Belief is bread for soldiers). So he always emphasised his belief and the religious background of his "mission" (just like bush) Two things are proven: hitler did not believe in the "Thule-orden" (germanic religion). And secondly, there is no real indicator for Hitler being a true believer. Trust me or not, but dont give me shitty quotes from one or the other US religious source. BTW the jewish community in germany officially shares my point of view. But you made one of the biggest mistakes about Hitler and your knowledge of his propaganda. You take is word as gospel. Hitler always said what was persuading but not what he believed in. That my friend is called propaganda. In german we have a term for that "empty rethorical bullets" (worthülsen) . And the worst is that I find about 1000 silly US sites which all come forward with your silly quote. Wanna-be science. If you want to come forward with real stuff about him then you should at leas have read the entire book and analysed it properly.

Let me guess, they werent prepared for our mortar attack and they didnt take parachutes with them.

You dont have to feel sorry for the japanese. They are tough fighters and shall I remind you of the past, we were laughing at them so many times and see in how many sports they succeeded to reach the top. They gonna make their way. Sports is always about loosing in the beginning!

Did the test again and got another picture. but this time I am considered as total mainstream! Anyhow, how can I order? Where can I sign? What time does it take for home-delivery?

Reminds me of the fact that if you travel from the US to Iraq you do not need to pass through a passport control. "no sir, no ID required, you will remain on US-teritory, have a nice flight" By the way the site about this school isnt so bad after all. It is a nice idea with hands-on suggestions and the possibility to forward a few things to where it is realy required. If it wouldnt be the end of the month (that when I am usually broke) I would send some stuff. Maybe I do that next month. Call me naive!

For the ones new to this board, please welcome Hilandor. He was in hospital for quite a while after his 3rd attempt to fly from the Scottish hill of Fruthmouth (more than 121m). We warned him after he posted an image of him and his his new flying machine, but he wouldnt wanna listen. Welcome back Hilandor and we are realy happy to see that you recovered so well

what you mean with ample breasts? One on top of the other, one red the other green? Â (ampel in german means traffic light)

find a funny title for this image No man, I am not that guy... I am the DUDE man...just ...the dude, I mean that is what they call me! remember Big Lebowski? No better, find a funny wav that works best with it the dude one of those days!

her charma will faint if my laydai enters the ball-room!

I dont get your point BALS? You didnt post a single argument why this is overwasted. Me personaly I am not capable to judge from all news right now whether the strike was accurate or not. Sounds a bit like you are making a prejudgement here. Hospitals reported 23 dead of which many did not "appear" to be "fighters". Now how do you judge that? I six year old boy is NOT a fighter, a women is NOT a fighter, but someone who does not APPEAR to be a fighter. Well if they are not sure they should not put it into the news. I rather wait till I get more intel before I judge the american action. Besides, I am defending a rather IRON-FIST strategy than a weak "defense" one. In the end the US needs to gain back authority otherwise it turns much worse!

Okay besides the concept that the Euro may faciliate company takeovers please also take into consideration that it enables powerful fusions between companies. Since the french and the germans have basically combined most of their military developments they are more competitive on the global market and it didnt take a year for europe to overtake the US in weapon exports (source: stokholm institute of peace-research (Sipri) source . And please dont reply here with arguments such as that we are dealing with weapons more freely than the US does. We are talking about fully legal business here. More than 80% of all weapons exported from the EU came from France, UK and Germany. Dont tell me that if even british companies would join the club that we could create several of the largest military suppliers in the world. Exports would go up, Development costs would go down, new jobs could be created and one or the other additional penny would go into new developments for our european armies. I dont even want to know what the Eurofighter would have costed if the project would have been started after the french and german companies had merged. And talking about planes and choppers. There the US is still ahead of us and implementing some british companies would definetly guarantee us the greates piece of the cake in the future. But I guess some people rather sit in British-parts only plane than in a better and cheaper "made in europe" fighter!

We had that discussion in the past Kuma War

One of the most neutral and well reputed newspapers in the world is the NZZ (Neue Züricher Zeitung) Zürich/switzerland. Very sophisticated and insightful but quite boring! Neue Züricher Zeitung (german)

As much as I agree with you on the hardliner propaganda of Fox I must remind you that the article you posted is a "comment" not a "news-report". As you know those are two different things! A comment is meant to be subjective (and that is different than biased news-coverage). But awesome to read. But eat this

What is so strange about it?" May I assume you consider our PRO-UK-EURO attitude as a hostile trap rather than a friendly invitation! In that case you would proof my first statement as valid!

those comments arent fair... we arent all in favour of these actions regarding Bush, and yet we all get roped into it... I personally dont want anything to do with Bush, but our oh-so wise primeminister Blaire is taking us for a ride, but i digress from the original topic im not too fussed about europe, but I would rather keep out Pounds instead of Euros... most likely down to national pride (dont tell me any of you who currently use the Euro wanted to keep their original currency, at first atleast) I agree with you. this comment wasnt an argument it was meant to make a clear and unfair statement!

It is very strange, cause the faces that finally turned out for you are the ones I rejected 100%. You people may assume that we are all slaves to mainstream but often we are positively surprised that we are not. I remember once we were sitting in a bar in Berlin and I nearly dropped dead from my chair when a girl sat down on the table next to us. I didnt know what to say for 10 minutes (which basically never happens) and my friend asks me what is wrong and I quietly told him that "this girl is breathtaking" and he looked around "who?" ..."who?". I asked "dont you see, are you gay or what?" and he replied "I dont see a single rocket-girl around, did she leave or go did she go to the toilet or what?" Strange but it happens

haha, you know that the picture you chose is what 80% of all men choose. You are so mainstream and sexist
