White House Plugs 10 Commandments Displays
-Have you honored you father and mother today, son? -No, its.. -Well, well! Then I guess its the chair for you, buddy! ..or the buddhist version Note outside locked courthouse: All trials for this kalpa cancelled. The Boddhistatva is currently busy contemplating its rectal shakra but sends his words that all wrongdoers will be reborn as that kind of mold that settles on a vindaloo thats been in the fridge too long. Thankyou, may your current incarnation be a pleasant one.

Harmful antivirus software?
What system? Im using WinXp pro service pack 2.
-
Be lurking indefinitely....
I used to get banned all the time from forums, in fact every forum Ive been a member of up until this year. You have to learn to ignore and not swallow bait(intentional or otherwise).

Harmful antivirus software?
I installed AVG Antivirus 7 free edition and this caused my computer to increase its bootup time by an estimated 2 MINUTES(!) no viruses were found. I did find one SVCHOST.EXE process ran by SYSTEM to be drawing 98% processor power contributing to the slagging down of my system. The problem disapeared after I uninstalled the program but Im left with a question: was it the program itself or a new virus with a "block antivirus progs" feature? heard any rumours going around?

Game development school- worth it?
In Sweden there are universities(2) that offer education in game development, a full university program of maybe 3-4 years. Its one basic year of broad learning programming, modeling and animation and then the program offers branches with advanced in depth studies of each(theres also writer/concept and a sound/music branches available) But I wonder if its really worth it? The picture I get of the gaming industry is that experience is what really counts, not schooling. Am I wrong? Would a company hire someone fresh out of uni without any commercial game titles in the belt?

my kotor story
It was quite ordinary and most of all embarrasing.

I guess we PC users will be absent til February
In a few hours stores will open to spew out a festering stream of XBOX K2, whereupon these forums will most likely drown in a neverending stream of trollish spoiling. To avoid this, Im leaving and Id advise the rest of you to do the same. cheers!

Designer Ramblings: New Cast of Companions
For me, it was quite obvious that K2 wasnt going to be a continuation of KoTOR as soon as I heard the about the main character and I agree that it is a good thing. Isnt a large part of it also that since K2 will be Obsidians first game, its important to show you can stand on your own legs and create something new? But Ill admit that my first comment was: "Thats like going to see Spiderman II and finding it to be about Peter Parkers unknown second cousins roommate"

a VERY interesting picture....
I belive Mr. U to be perfectly correct.

3d Modeling Question...
Presuming that you can get trial or educational copies of each program, which is the best one to learn the basics of 3D in? 2 days later: Ok, so Im in the process of getting a trial package of Maya 6. I doubt Ill have the self-discipline to get into it but I just may.

Concept art: what is that technique/medium?
That would explain why I could place the technique, thank you!
-
GamePlay
I finished K1 in just short of 70 hours, Im a very slow player so to really milk out the game because I cant replay RPGs(my memory is too good)
-
Battle Royale
Its fun, its silly, its gory, its weird -everything a japenese film should be. ..there's a sequel but apparently is hasnt made its way from asia yet
-
Concept art: what is that technique/medium?
Its likely water-based paint, Ive worked with most common materials in artschool(oil, tempera, acrylic, gouache, aquarell aswellas as graphics like screenprinting)* and Ive seen nothing like this. *although my main materials were as I first wrote; oil & acrylic

star wars books
I read an Aliens book once to see what the pro-fanfic genre was like, it was very easy to read and mildly entertaining. same thing with SW?

Why are they always Human??
The Sith arent really racist, it was just more estheticly pleasing(and simple) to have the empire in the original films consist of humans only. All other reasons are EU nonsense.

Designer Rambling: Wookiees
If I cant talk with it, I wont use it.

pane word
No, its because they think it looks cool and dont know what it means. Much like the way japanese rockers write english lyrics.

OMG I ****ing hate spyware
If it was more than 6 months since you did your last Win install then you probably need a good, clean reinstall anyway. Id advise you to make a system partition on your drive so you can just format the partition in the future. Viruses and *.ware rarely infect beyond the OS and its components. Im going to make a virus that destroys all *.ware it encounters plus those annoying companies who purchase expired adresses and replaces them with those odd pages that looks like portals but arent really useful for anything.

How many playthroughs of KOTOR?
Just once, although by that I mean that I reloaded from Rakatan Temple and went with the darkside so I could see both ends. Also did reload the later part of Korriban to enjoy Yuthura's conversion.

EU (not the European Union)
I usually only read fine litterature so I have no desire to explore the EU.

What Obsidian Job Would You Want?
The "idea guys" is usually a group consisting of the producer and the developers. Reporting bugs as beta-testers is usually about as much outside help a studio needs.

The Ultimate Poll
I enjoy thrones and black cloaks as much as the next person, but Im far too softhearted to keep it up in the long run.
