There's a vid of HL2 running well-fast and CoD4 running pretty good.....

Its a netbook! 
(moved Over From Screenshots & Betas) 
I was just thinking - maybe 3DRealms will release it when Rage comes out, for old times sake..... 
Merry Fucking Christmas! 
Even to you uptight fuckers who take this community way too seriously.

Cryostasis tech demo http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=X9OhEubXnyI

Apparently you can download this but it requires vista and dx10. Impressive stuff tho

... and guessing which parts are faked and which are real. water and cloth are real, but lots of material and textured lights there.

Jugding By The Date On This Thread... 
Func is six years old tomorrow! Which is almost half the time that quake has been out.

Thus begins a glorious Func posting career. 
Now That... 
...is a top quality post. 
#15853 - Continued.... 
Well, reporting back, seeing as so many of you expressed interest in how this ASUS N10J netbook would work with gaming!

After a fair bit of twaeking, updating directx, forceware etc, and figuring out how to get the discrete graphics card to be activated, I got the following two results:

Doom 3 - "high" settings - <>30fps @ 1024x600
UT3 - "low" settings - <>30fps @ 640x480
(UT3 had a little bit of minor stuttering, but was quite playable!)

So yeah - overall the netbook looks and feels very cool, the screen is a little bit small, but briliant picture quality, the Atom270 processor is a bit of a let-down (one program at a time please), but its very much a funtional netbook. Perfect for on the run....

Demo Recording Question 
How do I record a demo that keeps going after I die and respawn? Is this a feature of only some engines? I want to record nightmare first runs, and I sometimes die often :) 
Bah Hmmbug

Inertia 
Merge your demo with another one (can be as short as one second) with aguirRe's Convdem tool and the omitted parts after the first death will be played just fine. 
Demos 
negke, thanks. To be sure I understand: the omitted parts after the first death are actually recorded, but normally unviewable? 
 
Yes. They are skipped during playback. You'll only see the console messages. 
 
Bit Late For Most Of You, But... 
merry christmas!

It's fucking snowing too! (of course, it's now 26ths here :( ) 
31 Degrees Here 
Christmas day. Just means you're with a full stomach trying to escape the heat, and forget doing anything in the afternoon.

But who cares, Feliz navidad! 
Demo Zip 
anyone have a link to the demo zip program? I found it on the speed demos archive but it appears to be infected with the zmist virus (according to AVG) and won't run. 
Forget It 
I'm going to just the cmd version, which seems fine 
Weather Rant 
If it snows here, the snow will immediately melt usually. It's rare that it goes under 0 deg. C, even at night (the sea is close) ... roses are actually in bloom here still, which is rather unusual.

The fall these days is a rainy season, where everything is always wet. That's all, it drizzles for months on end at a temperature between 5 - 15 degrees, while it just gets darker. Really depressing.

As for the winter, it's no longer wet, hooray - but the only sign of real winter is that I get some ice plates in my boat's cockpit, but it won't freeze through, because the water is too warm...

Meh, climate change. When I was a kid, you could go outside with skis and sledges... even large horse sledges... and buckets and rain-water reservoirs would freeze all the way to the bottom. kids these days don't even know what real snow is.

Only it's dark, really fucking dark as soon as 3-4 PM and the sun doesn't rise more than a hand's width over the horizon. And there are sometimes storms.

In other words, rather boring weather, where you stay indoors as much as possible and get bored/drunk and watch TV whenever you can. I'm actually super-bored atm, and also a little ill, I wish I could just work. Somehow I don't have much energy. The fall wore me out already.

Some snow would actually be welcome... let's see if it happens this year...

Oh, if it only was summer again - these precious six weeks where the world turns into a desert, and you can't go outside either because you'll die of heat, and suddenly it's over like a feverish dream, and it rains, rains and rains.

Weather sucks.

It was better in the old days, too. 
Hmm 
You're what? 90 now? 
Almost 
34. 
And I Shook...
