Chatterbox / Are you worried of H1N1
« on: November 13, 2009, 08:00:43 PM »
I'm sick of people treating H1N1 as if it was the plague. Here's a good example: in one of my hour and 15 minute classes, several people got up something like TWELVE TIMES to go and apply hand sanitizer. At that point, more sanitizer is probably more harmful then helpful. I really have to ask: why?

Well who doesn't like the sniper?

Yeah, he's pretty awesome.

I avoid the IM problem altogether and use either VOIP or just email people. It's so much easier.

And yes, MSN is a virus.

The teeth need to be horizontal. Other than that, it looks like a bot meeting your usual level of originality.

Off-Topic Discussion / Best antivirus ?
« on: November 10, 2009, 05:25:02 PM »
I use Norton, never had any issues with it. Only problem is it lags your computer to a crawl while doing a system scan, so you have to set it to run when you're not going to use your computer.

No, there's also an antimatter neutron star piece. That's antiballast.

Did One Hit Kill even have a weapon? It just seemd to sit in the corner and twitch.

Real Robotics Discussion / When you started like Robots?

Flipping though channels at a hotel, I caught the last few minutes of a Robot Wars episode. When I got home I did some research, and eventually discovered Battlebots.

Off-Topic Discussion / Help running old games
« on: November 06, 2009, 04:30:15 PM »
Awesome, wasn't it?

Ok let me get this straight:
  • Download demo
  • Install game with old DirectX
  • Move old DirectX to Tanktics game folder
  • Reinstall latest DirectX onto system
  • Set compatibility to Win98
  • Pray
  • And it should work?


I don't want to mess up my comp, so tell me if I'm doing this right.

I would do that, but I don't want to overwrite the latest version of DirectX I have installed. Is there any way I could get the old version to just apply to one game?

I dont think modifications before a match are all that fair... you build your robot and you fight it for what it is


I agree. Mainly because I think Tornado is a cheat, but whatever. Although...

so it could flick the wedges into the blade

That's pretty smart.

There's a pretty old game from the Win98 era called Tanktics that I used to play, and when I upgraded to XP it wouldn't run. Well, it sorta ran but would crash almost immediately. Now that I have Vista 64 bit I'm desperately trying to get the game again for nostalgia purposes, among other things. The demo (don't want to spend money on a game I might not be able to run) installs alright, but then it gives me a fatal error: Incorrect version of DirectX. The stupid game is supposed to run on DirectX 7! I tried to download VirtualPC in order to set up an actual Win98 computer, but that kinda failed seeing as how I don't have a 98 installation disk anymore. Compatibility does jack. What should I do?

Actually, it threw one of them so hard that it banked off of two of the walls several feet up. Oddly enough, that robot just kept running!

EDIT: I just noticed something. Diesector's wheels are the GrannyGuards.

I'll enter. This should be fun!

...However, I like the way Joeblo was planning to run this better IMHO.

In general I don't make my own sprites, but here's a tutorial.

Check this out:

INFINITY WITH DECA-SMASHES GREAT

If you don't get it, this is a tribute to the game Warning Forever, which can be downloaded for free. All the bosses have weird-ass names like that. I'm in the process of building all of the third and fourth evolution bosses into BSF using custom sprites.
