    Just a little help,


    Sounds familiar, isnt how it all started? Burro? SMG, SZ....


    ....Yawn another year same shit same, well Ill C you next Tuesday!


    Why is Jack Baur spamming the forums? He was even kicked from COD4 server by PB for hacking Oh sorry this is CF...we allow it unless you donate^


    (Cya in the afterlife?)


    Malakas!

    Why not air this on the forum?


    Isnt this what Forums are for?


    There is obviously a problem on CF, people are not happy so get it all out in the open for a change!


    Or you could all stick your head in the ground then ask "why aint anyone playing CF anymore"?

    by: Percy Bysshe Shelley 1818 AD

    I met a traveler from an antique land
    Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
    Stand in the desert... Near them, on the sand,
    Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
    And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
    Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
    The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed;
    And on the pedestal these words appear:
    My name is Ozymandius, King of Kings,
    Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away.


    I like many people who have posted above had nothing intelligent or relevant to say so I thought Id leave you all with some nice literature!


    PS A few months back some prick said that "Ozymandius" comes from a quote in CIV4 (Game). I suggest you read more!

    To little to late,


    Rather interesting that the same people are being left to deal with it. I was under the impression we had SP from all clans.


    I am also bemused that members of all clans have mentioned him as a problem to me at one time or another and yet there clan SP never acted! Then again I have witnessed SP running events and not act on his blatent attitude and flagrent disregard for server rules, so I am not suprised that others copy him and feel it is ok.


    I feel it is ironic that the one person that many members turned on and abused is the only person that the spine to address this.


    The real question is have we moved forward? Thats a NO. Oh and yes he is still posting here on this thread and Im sure he will be back so in the end nothing was achieved!


    Except that for some there are new shores where we main game together.


    To little to late!

    Ok,


    Having the same problem in Altair?


    It is an interesting problem and turning down effects has worked? GFX card problem perhaps or Direct X?


    I was on earlier in Hudson shooting DEB's and had no probs at all.


    Maybe tomoz you will be online and grab me, we can investigate and Ill film and talk face to face. It might help if all see what you say.


    There are so many potential reasons so lets elimate the obvious together first! Then we can bring in the real nerds.....(coughs). It might also help if this is persistant to have a Dx diag doc sent to op. So he has a benchmark.


    It is important to remember that this is not console game and modded so there will be probs.


    PS. Tizona is great alone but there are ocassions on certain ships when Deb is better, such as bullpup. Power consumption is better and effect can be the same. Fire 2 Debs at a BS then a Tiz and see what happens! BUT lets not turn this into a weap thread :)

    I have never had a problem with this Debs in nearly 2 years of using them.


    It could be that with certain sound cards there is a prob? However my instincts would be to look at other known issues first but I see you found none. I have seen no effect following the lighting change.


    Daegon, your not alone and it is not unheard of for 1 or 2 players to have the same probs whilst others do not.


    Where was this hapening..ie system. Was it always here or in other locations? I ask as I shall duplicate and see what happens. I also run fraps to catch it on myself or on you. Im sure Huor will hope as well.

    OP, you mad me laugh! Well done.


    Honestly I play because I think we have a wickid community! Half I meet at the over end of my PPC but any could ask for me help and I will be there.


    SO OP I LIKE OTHERS WILL BUG YOU FOR MORE!


    It is worth it:)

    I have spoken to Huor at some length about the film and honestly it seems to me you know exactly what you want.


    It would be easier for Huor if you stated exactly what you have mind instead of people spending hours remaking films.


    I was working on this with Huor and I know he has been busy giving up his free time after work to make this instead of playing the game.


    I am still wanting to help Huor with this but am not gona go around in circles remaking stuff.


    I say this as a positive step to get this finished and not as a critiscim.

    Huor thats nice,


    Can u get me the file? I might be able to add a bit. Soundtrack is good and its very clean and crisp.


    What about a couple of still screen shots blended in from some of the comunity games?


    I Wish I had have been free to do what I said.


    Things always happen at once lol.

    OP,


    For some it is eye candy. SFP feels it is more about the comunity!


    Dont stop, the MOD is good.


    I love this game for the fact I can log on...go fly..shoot or be shot....visit a bar and have a laugh about it.


    The new textures and res work really well now on my LCD tv. Wicked job (1.7 has bought be back and the efforts I read about on other issues)!


    Yeah it is not perfect but that is what keeps me and many players comming back. How far can it go and what is next?


    The X3 idea is cool and I salute those working at it. It can not be easy to incorporate and in my opinion will add diversity and benefit the game!


    If people took the time to look at what the original MP game was like they might chose there words more carefully and remember that real people are spending real time to make this work.


    If energy was spent on the positive I wonder how far CF will go?

    OP,


    Will the cockpits from X2 be added as well?


    I know in x3 they are not included unless you apply the patch for them but in terms of eye candy, it would be awesome!

    What is a thribble?


    I hear this question often. I can tell you it is not a vermin. I may also reveal that "Kryten" has a Thribble.


    Importantly thou, us cops have found them very useful although I believe recently I am the only one to have one....now it is lost!


    My thrible was a gift from a close friend on Planet Malta. You may have heard of her, its the story to do with the onion and the power generator.


    I shall go looking for it soon as my life is meaningless without my thribble.

    It was a strange day,


    One of those days when things just seem to happen and to explain it all...well where to start?


    You see, I got up grabed my dougNuts and Sirusbucks coffee before heading off on my patrol. Now I know I had my thribble with me at this point. I never leave home without it!


    Patroling was rather normal. The normal perps doing the normal thing. I did have a chance encounter with some fellows calling themselves DP. Seems they are the merc type, I made a note in my journal to keep an eye on them. Mercs always mean problems. I checked my thribble and it was fine.


    I had a light lunch, winked at some ladies in a cool cafe on Planet New Berlin...even got a number. Guess they liked my uniform.


    I headed of to investigate recent reports of "rats" in Nephele. Sure enough they are there. Thribble in hand I investigated. Curious to see what the situation is I sat back and observed. There was a SMG guy, going buy the callsign of Simba......a rough char and well known to the law. Then a few TRF showed up said they had laid claims to the system. I suspect a base in the system with TRF at the head of it


    I filed my report and headed of to X-304 for another coffee or even a few more phone numbers. It was when I sat down that I realised my thribble is missing. I even searched my ship but to no avail!


    I am sure it is in Nephele and will go back to look for it!

    Lucy,


    Now you mention Malta.


    That is exactly where I met her. Now that is a story in itself indeed! A back alley if I remeber correctly and a few flowers.....oh not to mention the onion!


    Maybe Ill tell you about the Onion and how this led me to meet Natasha's sisters and how I managed to escape!


    I am sure thou that the story of the power Generator is far more interesting and how i fused its cells. Then the guards came....


    ...oh my so much to you, and dont forget the onion!

    Oh,


    Sombody mention a Bar and drinking? Sounds like my kinda scene!


    Good idea on the rep thing and like many good ideas by players the Devs never think about it (I mean Microsoft). After all when they released the game it was like the MP side was a unwanted afterthought from a love afair with a Nomad Priestess and they called it MP.


    I must take my hat of to all those that have brought life to the game in the CF Mod!


    Dont forget Gents I know Natasha very well and her sisters and shall be able to make arrangements for private dances at the bar on Murmansk!


    It is interesting how quickly that the subject of Sov has increased. Recently I have never seen so many people out side of Sirus. On several ocasions I have seen all on the server in altair!


    Lets hope that the RP will follow!


    I am certain it will :)
