alanschu Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Well, if you're talking about a virus attaching to an .exe (which I would categorize as being exceptionally uncommon), then that's not a bug that Dashus is takling about.
GreasyDogMeat Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 How many people have actually recieved viruses from EXE files they downloaded from reliable web sites? Over the years I've installed zillions of EXE patches and mods and I've never recieved a virus from an EXE file.
Fenghuang Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 I got effed over by one that claimed to be a copy of FRAPs (from a mirror off of MajorGeeks no less) that did a number on my computer recently. First it disabled Ctrl-Alt-Del so I couldn't kill it manually, it also hid they System32 file using a DOS prompt so I couldn't go and fish out taskmanager.exe on my own. Then it opened up Shareaza and Limewire and started sending copies of itself out all over the place under some really shady names (my12yodaughterxxxpics etc.). Also inserted some root kits and placed itself in varoius hidden locations around my PC. Nasty little bug. RIP

Try to get the process-explorer, if you haven't got it already. It's doing the same things as the task-manager, just more and better. Not to mention that no virus attacks it, so it can't be blocked like the task-manager.

vaxen83 Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 It's TSL team work which is why K2 has remained uninstalled on my computer for quite a while, which gives time for other games or a break in meantime.

Gorth Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Yay, custom animations :D So, once done with this project, are you guys going to do more addons, like traditional mods and extra levels and stuff?... :)" “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Xard Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Awesome! :D How can it be a no ob build. It has PROVEN effective. I dare you to show your builds and I will tear you apart in an arugment about how these builds will won them. - OverPowered Godzilla (OPG)
Miltiades Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Nice work. Hope to see more animations in the future. @Gorth: Maybe they will, but I think first and for all they'll take some time off.

Grone Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 Nice work guys! Was wondering how those custom animations would work out for you in the end. Can't wait to this out.

ZeroDark9 Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 what happens if they reach 7b9? and they still have bugs. 7b10? This is what happens when you can't repair HK-47: [Failure] ...aahhhh! What are you doing?! Remove the arc wrench, remove the arc wrench! Medic!

DarthMethos Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 what happens if they reach 7b9? and they still have bugs. 7b10? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> As I said in another post, all you people did was substitute one method of measuring progress with another. With all due respect to your team Dashus, this could take quite alot of more time to finish. I am still holding banners of encouragement. When the mod is finally here, I know I will have fun with your team's contribution to TSL. Thank You. Dashus. With the new discovery in animations, will your team go back and add some custom scenes?
Dashus Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 We've got over 200 known issues in the tracker and are fixing them at the rate of 1-3 per day. Time is pretty much a given The real use in having custom animations available is that we're able to fix a couple bugs and implement some cut content, most notably the hanharr-mira "arm through the throat" scene on Mal V which will also now hopefully involve a wall slam as per GP notes. We're not adding any custom scenes. TSLRP Propaganda Minister Diagnostic result: I seem to have no personality whatsoever.
