Makes you think... Did they find a way to support negative lighting for the
CONSOLE Renderware? Naturally. Did they for the much more powerful and yet
severely neglected PC Renderware? You should know the answer.

FINALLY SOMEONE WITH A CLUE THAT CAN DO SOMTHING ABOUT IT! Go get yourself a
job with AWCI at the addy myrth posted and make it happen.

Mar 18, 2001, 12:49pm

STOP POSTING IN HTML DAMMIT.

There, now that I got that off my chest...
[View Quote] I too have witnessed Daphnes abuse towards those of Gor and it's really
disgusting that SHE represents AW and is getting away with this. if it were
some of us other ones, we would be removed from the premises PRONTO!

I'm delighted that Jynx is in that Bingo and helps run it. I enjoy Bingo
MUCH more when she is there. She is ALWAYS pleasant to EVERYONE. Putting her
in charge there was an EXCELLENT move *VBS* Daphne on the other hand? Puh
lease *rolling my frigging eyes* I have chatlogs where she has been
verbally abuseive towards those of gor and it's not right. She's making the
rest of the AW staff look bad.

I vote REMOVE Daphne before AW loses all their Bingo players and several
cit's. I think it's wonderful that BVS has offered his time to donate a
wonderful prize to Bingo. I wish I knew how to create such beautiful
pictures like he does. I don't donate to CitBingo BECAUSE of Daphne. I will
NEVER donate to ANYTHING that has ANYTHING to do with her!

SoS and his Mom are 2 of the most wonderful, sweet, caring and giving people
to AW and I think very highly of the 2 of them and to see SoS be forced to
leave because of ONE person, then it's a shame!

There! I've said my piece!

Come back SoS

Xoom (now NBCi) never noticed, but the downtime sucked butt. Anyway, I've
found a way to get around that restriction on other servers. Make a
"download database"website out of some cheezy HTML files. From those link to
EVERY file on your object path. I know it sucks, but it works.

Don't kill me for this, I know it's offtopic.

But, whenever I try to move, rename, copy, delete, whatever a file, I get a
"File system error (1026)"
Yes I've rebooted, and programs can still work with files, but I can't.
Also, in the properties window, no file attributes are reported. Looks like
Windows bit the dust, but does anyone else have any ideas?

Mar 21, 2001, 6:12pm

Well, thanks for all the help. It went away. I don't know why or how. Cuz I
dunno either. Only reasonable explaination is that everything goes to hell
when I do anything related to school. 100% of all my equipment failures have
occured during homework. Maybe AMD added some AI functions to the Duron 700
but disabled them and they've come back to life after mad overclocking.

YES WING, I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE THINKING

Seeing as you just referred to your sound card as a SoundBlaster, I can only

Heh, I just heard AWCI is going to declare bankruptcy within the month.
Probly unfounded but gives us a ray of hope of new management

Sure, I'll buy it when the entire company, servers, offices, everything
costs $50

You don't hafta buy it to run the servers. You can just download the Linux

I'm aware of the advantages of customizing the language files. However,
since it is a factory standard file causing the problem, SOMEONE at AW
needs to fire up notepad and fix it and replace the bad file with the good
one.

Uhhhhhhhhhh? Since when is discrediting those that don't agree with you in
any way possible a crime? Please, lets not overcrowd the prisons more until
we take over Iraq and turn it into what Australia used to be.

Okay, what generation are you referring to? The internet really only became
what it is in the 1990's, making today's middle and high school students the
only ones developmentally influenced by it. Being one myself, I can tell
you, you're lucky if you can get ANY opinions out of most of us, and as far
as being able to express themselves in a non-confrontational environment,
the class wuss has disappeared. Simply because we haven't been raised in the
Utopia our parents presented, a sexless, viiolence free world where all
humans are paper cutouts and therefore there is no race, no religion, no
NOTHING to differentiate between groups with, doesn't make us defects, but
it sure as hell assures that there aren't going to be many wusses coming
into the world unable to make decisions for themselves.

Impressive. However, I wasn't going the free speech route, AW is an
international community. When did I make a reference to the Constitution
anyway?

Bad analogy. Yes, it SHOULD be our problem to sort out, some people have the
common sense to weed out the flames and pick out the good part, kind of like
eating a lemon, unless you're REALLY weird, you don't eat the outer parts
(not sure what you'd call it). But you don't ask the fruit distributor to
peel them for you.

Call me names all you want, but censorship makes weaker minded people than
myself. I seek no form of approval, I'd be perfectly happy if I were in the
position of all the world's evil dictators combined-everyone hates me, so
what.

Getting shot at doesn't scare me, we all hafta die sometime...

Man, your newsreader must be having one helluva seizure, you've only posted
the EXACT same thing in HTML and plain text about a half dozen times
[View Quote] Greetings!

I'm SW Chris, Governor of James River, a subcommunity of SW City, and the
Events Coordinator for the city. SW City's 2nd Birthday bash is next week
and we want you all to come! One event will be held per day for the entire
next week, starting tomorrow, Sunday! Here's the skinny:

Sunday, April 1, 11 p.m. VRT - ScRaM
Be the first to unscramble all of the words.

(We are having problems with teh Scram bot, so if it's not running, then
we'll have Trivia instead.)

Monday, April 2, 11 p.m. VRT - SW City Best Builds Tour
Tour 10 of the best builds in SW City space. This tour comes highly
recommended, as several new builds and one recreation of a video game will
be unveiled for the first time during this tour.

Tuesday, April 3, 11 p.m. VRT - Wacky Races
Kmissile583K gave me special permission to make this course. It's a
standard course with a few new twists to the game thrown in.

Wednesday, April 4, 11 p.m. VRT - AW Baseball and AW Tennis
Play the very first versions of AW Baseball and AW Tennis all night tonight.
Come at any time for AW Tennis, but show up early for AW Baseball! (The bot
is stingy about letting people join after the game has started. =))

Thursday, April 5, 11 p.m. VRT - SW City Paintball Royale
This event is a single-elimination form of paintball. We will play on all
four of SW City's paintball courses. Be the lone survivor at the end of
each match to win.

Friday, April 6, 9 p.m. VRT - Palm Grove Building Contest
This is a classic building contest. Builds will be judged on character,
architecture, creativeness, and inventiveness.

Friday, April 6, After the Building Contest - Closing Ceremonies and
Fireworks Show
Soon after the building contest, join SW City's staff for a time of fun and
drunken partying (well not really). The winners of the previous events will
be officially recognized during the closing ceremonies, then sit back,
relax, and enjoy the fireworks and light show under a canopy of stars!

Saturday, April 7, All Day - All Events
All events will be open periodically throughout the day. If you missed an
event earlier in the week, come on Saturday to play.

The teleport station to these events can be found at the SW City Community
Events Center, located at aw 2212.9S 3600.6E 90. Please show up at least 15
minutes prior to the beginning of the event.

We, the SW City Staff (SW Comit, SW Chris, Syntax, Captain MAD Mike, and
Rae), wish to see everyone there!

> Windows 98 ME, Pentium Celeron 433MHz

Wow, both a hybrid between Windows 98 and Windows ME as well as a hybrid
Pentium and Celeron on one system???

I WANT IT!

In all seriousness, find out what your computer REALLY is before you post
bug reports. Also, the report as a whole was rather bad, doesn't say
anything about what's happening. And also, since half of AW is rendering,
how about a video card?
