Convert cdrom.com and sunet.se links to working gamers.org ones.

You need Firefox & Greasemonkey to use them.

you mean javascript?

(or what's so special about it?)

links not working btw 

no idea about greasemonkey -><- javascript.
Links work again. 

I have downloaded both "TmOriginal_FromPowerUp_Setup.exe" and "TmsExtreme_FromSunrise_Setup.exe" but when I try to install any of those I get a message: "trackmania was not found on this computer"
Do I miss something? 

Trackmania Nations is for free. It is great fun :) 

I think it's Trackmania Nations that is free. That was for some tournament as far as I know. 

I just wanted to show-off my knowlegde and fast posting skills, you know? 

As of monday 2006/09/11 my old E-mail address is dead.

I'm no longer in love with Quake.
Hmm. 

czg u are a bitch you in love with everybody... 

if you never map again, thanks for all the good Quakin' you have provided. 

hello 

I wonder if anyone has messed with hl2 command line options to get it to run better? I've got a few commands in mine but it still hitches loading data on occasion and is very annoying, this is what I am using :

-novid -heapsize 1024000 -cl_forcepreload 1 -dsp_enhance_stereo 1

So im giving it a full 1gb of ram to play with (I have 2gb in my pc) and telling it to preload everything yet it still hitches??? Does anyone more in the know than I am know of any other useful parameters to add? Oh the dsp enhance parameter makes the stero panning sound much better btw! 

runs like ass on my pc on level loads. The hitching is a huge problem. It's infinitely worse with more recent Source games.

I only have 512mb though :( I also have a crap onboard sound chip. Once it's loaded it all runs fine, but this problem absolutely shitted on my experience of the game.

Luckily, I had played it at my old work and it ran fine on a system that also had 512mb ram (but a proper dedicated soundcard) and had no hitching issues.

I hate source. 

So the problem has to do with the sound? Wow, I never knew that. 

Found that this little gizmo works wonders for latency performance, decreasing and sometimes halting the stuttering completely: http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/PCI_Latency_Tool/1105467085/1 

You know what that means - it's time to move over to the dark side and finish that Doom 3 map, beotch. 

Source saves memory by only caching the first eighth of a second of all sounds. It plays that eighth while it loads the rest of the sound.

That means that it's constantly seeking on your disk for sounds.

I dunno if it was ever proven that that's what causes the hitching, but that's the leading theory at least. 

that's a nifty tool, but i was wondering what else will be affected by changing the pci latency? and if it could be bad for other things? 

Didja get my e-mail? 

I corrupted some files and thus need them again...

You can get the last three from FP via Fatty's and Tronyn's sites. 

Thanks a lot!
