  1. Well i must say, all in all a greaty olympics.

    I must say though the last episode of "The Dream in Athens" was quite a sad one.

    But i shall be looking foward to 2008 for the return of Roy and H.G. biggrin_o.gif

    And a great medal haul for Australia, go Aussie go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That whole debacle with the mens marathon was absolutely horrible, i was glad that Vanderlei de Lim recieved the best sports person award. he thoroughly deserverd it.

  2. Jolly good games these have been so far, but i must say, im very dissapointed with the Judging in some of the events, especially with the Boxing and Gymnastics.

    Some extremely incompetent judging has been displayed so far.

    And my my Australia is doing extremely well in the Cycling biggrin_o.gif

    * wanders back to watch "The Dream" with Roy and H.G.


  3. Yes they do have a lovely take on how the olympics works and how it should be.

    I emailed in a suggestion to make the Equestrian more exciting by adding such things as land mines, burning hot pitch and replacing that snotty english commentator with Steve Irwin

  4. Also download the latest nVidia drivers, it helps a great deal, im running mine on a Pentium 2.4 ghz, 1gb ram and a Geforce FX 5200 with medium settings and i havent had any lag, its a bloddy good game but the ending was a real dissapointment.

  5. Im proud of how well Australia is doing at the olympics, especially in the Swimming, Cycling and Shooting.

    Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!!!!!!

    Oi, Oi, Oi!!!!

    And we cant forget how good "The Dream" with Roy and HG is, makes the olympics so much better

  6. I reckon the deciding factor in whether the U.S. will go to war with North Korea or not will be who wins the Presidential Election.

    If Bush gets in for another term id strongly beleive he'd have a swipe at them.

  7. Quote[/b] ]Tim Pink it`s a known fact that modders in this community use work taken from other games to aid their development.Many respectable figures have admited of using work from Counter-Strike,Ghost Recon,Mircro**** etc. or mission makers who use artists music as it is done in other gaming community also.After countless debates I think we moved passed this,leading to either "look the other way and enjoy the free work" or "don`t download it" choices

    I see your point Quicksand, but my point is the models look exactly the same, DRF say that there textures are from GR but RHS says they are from a jacket and pants Shadow NX owns, how can this be.

    Like Avon said :

    Those uniforms are cut from the same cloth

    Quote[/b] ]go to jail for stealing textures ?

    Ok that was an overreaction, got carried away  tounge_o.gif

    cus they take from Ghost Recon

    Shadow NX has shown were the original textures of the RHS infantry pack came from, a jacket he took photos off and i think owns.

    i think there'd be a noticable difference in his textures and the GR ones.

    So now i guess your going to blame RHS for stealing textures, stop trying to lie your way out goddammit

  9. Ok that seems like a pretty fair explanation but with another look at the pictures you notice that the arms are darker than the torso textures, on both pics, that is a bit uncanny isnt it?

    I know crap all about textures but youd have to be blind to miss that.

    Pic1

    Pic2

    The arm textures are dark whilst the body textures are lighter, on both pictures, with two units made by two different mods, that cant be coincidence!!  crazy_o.gif

    Jeez even the boots and the chin strap on the helmet look identical.

  10. Personally i like the EECP, the realism part really caught me,

    Plus in my opinion (dont take this the wrong way pappy) but it seemed that kurayami selected the units to replace them with a bit more carefully.

    As for the LAN, i played one with the EECP and it was bloody awesome.

  11. Quote[/b] ]One thing i want to point out is that you cannot copyright a "words".

    yes very true, but in this instance it is not words they copyrighting, its a trademark, and as Noon416 explained these companys have to pursue these claims or they lose the ownership of the trademark.

    Btw, there is a link to Toadlifes official response here

    Very well put together toadlife, i think that will make them think twice smile_o.gif


  12. From what ive learned about copyright law, there are actually people whos job it is to search for trademark infringements and copyright violations on the net by typing select words into search engines.

    Some guy who works for L**ack just probably typed L**ack into Google and *poof* Toadies mission appeared.

  13. Good on ya toadlife.

    As for this:

    Quote[/b] ]I think its another case of the craps. Thats just like people griping about not making children units. They should have waited till they received an actual notice from the lojack company. I bet they didn't, i just know they crapped out early. I got that feeling

    Hubba's ISP did recieve an official notice from the LoJack corporation and its lawyers which was then passed to Hubba, Lets put you in the same shoes and see how you'd react, i beleive you'd be experiencing a case of brown pants syndrome.
