They are items which occasionally don't show up well in contrasT to the background.try looking for things even if you seen othing.

Hmm.

Alex, something that the English are very accustomed to doing?

After that just move the scenario folders you no long care to play into a newly created second folder in the BoA directory, and name it something that is currently unused.

Quick tip, folks.

 

Never let yourself ever be put on the internets if you ever want even the tiniest bit of privacy.

What is interesting to me is that BoA worked prior to this once scenario being added to the data folder. Something weird happened. It would be nice to see a complete set of steps taken, and try to duplicate this problem. Of course, I don't run Vista, so

Does it work if you remove that new scenario from the Scenario folder?

Jeff - After my computer exited this world, I bought a new motherboard with integrated OpenGL support. Sadly, it (the driver for that integrated chipset) failed to work with Windows 2000, so I thought I was out of luck. I took a chance with Ubuntu, and had 100% success, including a chipset driver, and a working installation of Geneforge 5, running under the most current version of Wine. I must say I'm excited to finally be able to play the game, and wish to again thank you for your customer service.

I love the words used, since they sharpen the divide between the well educated scientists exploring and studying the climate, and the Holiday Inn Express types that try to understand them.

I have the same issue.

This box is a year old. I am astounded that even with fresh drivers that I can't get it to work. Brand new drivers all around, and nothing.

As long as he doesn't recycle reasons for naming places as he does...

I marvel if there is an actual train of thought here, from post to post.

attaboy Nik, try to catch him on that technicality.

Blame it on death_state.

I gave up on maintaining a set party, other than for beta testing. I would rather dial in a scenario appropriate party using Kel's HLPM. After all, I'm playing for the scenario's story, not mine.

I wonder if you could make lasers work though. Kel reported problems with them if you are using elevations, so that might be the sticking point.

How did this turn out?

To be fair to Steve, he really loves a good horror, and is trying to improve that craft. Lovecraft was also good, and I see a little of those stories in the earlier King. The other stuff is a lighter version of scary, but is still scary.

Thad - I bought it, but haven't yet read it. Still working on some other, less cerebral, books first. Thanks for the thumbs up though, I'll move it to a more accessible place now.

I met the guy while I lived in Bangor. He was very intelligent, after all he's a BoSox fan, but he seemed very distracted all the time. It was like he was thinking a dozen things at once, only one of which had anything to do with the corporeal. It's been 20 years now, I imagine he's changed a little in the interim, but I've also not read one of his books in that time. I did read part of his first Dark Tower book, but lost interest somewhere around the time that some idiot brought a nuke back to the base camp. Maybe that was the end, I dunno, but that is the bit I remember. Anyhow, I'll try that series again, because as what SoT says is most always accurate, he might be even more scatterbrained now, and that would show in his writing.

I read this today.

 

What? It's October*!

 

*That means two things. Post season baseball, and spooky stuff.

It used to. Now you are just bitter and hyperbolic in your scorn.

Too late for a new thread, as this isn't something I read, but some music I heard. Live music. Highly recommend a gal named Laura Marling (website eponymous (dot com) plus at myspace, also eponymous) and her backing band, especially Marcus (drummer/accordian/backup vocals). Great fun at the show, small venue (Lola's in PDX) and about 50 - 75 at the show. She was the final of 3 acts, all from England, over for a 3 week bus tour. Last chances are Seattle on Oct 1, and then Quebec or Toronto before they return to the islands via Aberdeen Scotland.

 

The first band, Mumford & Sons, was also phenomenal, with surprising sounds from a three piece. If I had to describe the vocals, it would be "dusky," but I suck at that game. Keyboards were good, and bass was great. In fact, all the string work was great from all three groups. The second group was Johnny Flynn, which I sadly found to be a little predictable. Still, enjoyable, but when bracketed thusly, it was obvious that they lacked some spark which was evident in the other groups.

 

Now, according to Laura, they are all feeling a bit logy, having shared a bus for 2 weeks, and being exposed to folks from Allston Mass all the way to SanFran and now points north, so actual quality may be better than I report. The three groups seem to be having great fun together, and seem like they are having a blast. They tore up the dance floor tonight, inspiring the dreaded hippies of Portland to shake those locks and stamp their Birks.

 

Quite a sight.

Why can't you change your settings to 1024x768?

Taking a break from reading, I am re-reading Serpent from the "desk of" Clive Cussler.

Reading some Hiassen. Good old mindless fiction.
