11236 Dark Places games -1 dumb Absolutely useless. Not everyone uses Windoze (thank gawd). Yeah, the source is there, yeah it compiles, and then it doesn't do anything. Complete waste of time. 2003-05-10 18:02:48 0
11238 Marble Blast games -1 That's just Gold &lt;troll&gt;<br> Stay tuned for MARBLE BLAST PLATINUM, coming this summer, with an additional 20 super-expert levels! Upgrade for just $7! And then, MARBLE BLAST PLUTONIUM, coming this winter, with an additional 10 god-like levels! Upgrade for just $10! And then, ...<br> &lt;/troll&gt;<p> Seriously, i think they should have given this addon-pack for free for the early buyers. Not everyone is as lucky as me, who didn't buy it before. 2003-05-10 18:57:38 0
11239 Dark Places games 7574 Re: dumb Can you tell me which packages you compiled? I'd agree that maybe the developer needs to put step 1, step 2 etc a little clearer on the site, however, if you download and compile the correct part, you should end up with a runnable executable file. Put that in place next to the id folder containing the pak files from your original Quake1 disk (note: on some builds of the original Quake, you might need to performom "lha r resource.1" to get the pak files and other stuff. You only need what's in the "id" folder, and then if the "id" folder or the pak files are in upper case [dos verrsion] then rename them to lower case for this project to work.)<BR> Before I go into too much detail, please reply back with the package you downloaded and the steps you took to get it going (albeit unsuccessfully). If you an be bothered with that, I might be bothered telling you in the same detail how I got it at least running over here. 2003-05-10 18:57:57 11236

11247 Duke Nukem 3d games -1 Re: duke3d networking Okay, I just went through the source code ("mmulti.c", to be precise) and found out some interesting things: <br> The "-net" parameter needs a text file as an argument, which contains the following information: <br> INTERFACE [IP address] (probably yours, I don't know.) <br> MODE [SERVER or CLIENT or PEER] (at the moment, only "PEER" works so at this time, the whole line is optional) <br> ALLOW [IP address] -OR- <br> BROADCAST [number] <br> "Allow" will send a greeting message to [IP address] and try to connect to that computer. For more than two players, use more "Allow"-lines and IP addresses. <br> "Broadcast" will try to find the given number of players, and then (hopefully) start the game. <br> I couldn't try it out because at the moment I don't have Duke3D installed on another computer and I couldn't get the "fake deathmatch" (with bots) working. If anyone finds out more about this, please post it here. <br> I hope this information is correct and helpful. <br> Wansti 2003-05-11 02:25:01 10618
11248 Duke Nukem 3d games -1 It works!! I tried it with two computers and the settings I mentioned above AND IT WORKED! <br> It was a bit slower than single player mode but it was playable. A few things to watch: <br> In the net config file, at least one of the computers had to use the "Allow" command. It worked with both computers using "Allow" plus the IP address of the other one, or with one using "Allow" plus IP and the other using "BROADCAST 1". <br> On one computer I experienced a bug which prevented the port from being freed, so for the second game I had to change the port number to get a connection. You can use another port number by adding ":[port]" to the IP addresses. <br> Hope it works for you! Happy dukematching! <br> Wansti 2003-05-11 03:32:15 10618

11251 Molecule Man games -1 Libraries This game has some pretty fun. You DON'T need to download Kylix to run it. This is posted on the game's site : If you download the executable, you'll also need the Kylix OE libraries. Installing them it's easy, they've a simple installer. Then, just run the game. <BR> --{@ Ryo99. 2003-05-11 07:52:38 0
11252 Marble Blast games 5360 Re: That's just Gold You do realize you're complaining about a measly $5 right? It's not like they're charging you typical expansion price or anything. 2003-05-11 09:22:01 11238
