Quote:/compatiblecursors is a command the requires an argument. If you just use it without specifying 1 or 0 after, it'll report the current value. In your case, it's reporting 0, meaning off.Originally Posted by dume
if i use that comm ig it says: compatiblecursors 0
No clue what it means
"/compatiblecursors 1" will toggle it on. -

That's normal. Most computer's fans (especially the video card fan which I suspect is the main source of the noise) are temperature sensitive these days.
When there's more heat being produced, such as when you're taxing your system playing a game, they rev up to full speed. When the system is idle, they slow down since they don't need to move as much air.
As long as it sounds like normal fan whirrrrr type noise, you're good. If it sounds like a grinding noise or something to that effect, it means one of your fans is probably starting to go.
EDIT: You might want to pop your case open and check the dust situation inside. Over time, heatsinks get clogged causing the fans to have to work harder. Things just might need a good cleaning out with a can of compressed air. -
If I'm not mistaken there is no prize for winning. None. Nothing. The entire point of this thing is to have fun and enjoy some excellent art from people in the community.
It doesn't even matter if you're eliminated because you can post a piece that's themed with the month anyway!
In other words...lighten up. -

Quote:The game is balanced around level 50. Always has been. Extending out the level cap would require a lot of game balance work to make doable.Originally Posted by dirac
C'mon...where is level 70?
I think the case with WoW or whatever is that they had always planned to raise the level cap and worked that into their power/ability balance from the initial design phases. -
Quote:If my rusty memory cells are recalling correctly, the closest CoV got to an open beta was 1 weekend before release where they ran a stress test in partnership with FilePlanet.Originally Posted by Radionuclide
I assume there is one because it follows their typical Beta/Release process. I don't recall if there was an open beta for CoV though. It was just too long ago. But, simply because it is a paid expansion does not exclude the possibility of an open beta period.

Then it closed back up again and we got the end of beta event and then the servers closed down for a couple days until the head start weekend for pre-order folks. -
That right there is a nice looking piece of artwork.

Nice use of existing material... I hadn't seen that particular pic but probably would have taken just as long if I had... My eyes naturally strayed lower.

If you don't have leopard, you should buy the $169 version. The EULA of the $30 upgrade requires that you have a valid Leopard license. That said...
The $30 disc is the same as the $169 disc. It does not check for Leopard before installing.

I totally see your point and do agree with it. Somebody who's an expert in the field has an opinion that probably will bear more weight, being more informed. I'm not arguing against that at all.
What ticks me off is the idea that a non-artist's opinion should be dismissed out of hand simply because they're not an artist. Going back to your plumbing example, the actual plumber is probably going to get it right. But that doesn't mean that the non-plumber is automatically always wrong. I may not be an expert but I can tell that the seal around the drain has sprung a leak or if one of the pipes is broken. I still have helpful commentary to add to the discussion. -

Sunroof is a $1000 option on a new beetle. -

You're right. No way I could afford a Rolls.
How much for a VolksWagon Beetle?

Quote:I Haaaaate this attitude and I've seen it around here from certain individuals. That if you're not an artist you really don't have anything of value to add to the discussion.Originally Posted by Bayani
I stopped posting any sort of criticisms or observations primarily because I had received PMs from folks here and on dA who basically said that my opinions and criticism aren't valid or welcome because I'm not a working professional in the art/design industry and that I only have good art because I have more resources than others to hire published professionals.
Granted, Joe off the street probably doesn't know as much about the technical aspects of art as somebody who's out there making it. But just because Joe can't do it doesn't mean he doesn't understand the process and can't add anything to a serious discussion.
Apply the concept to other areas and it's just totally ridiculous. Ex: Your opinion/review of that movie is totally crap because you're not a director/writer/actor/whatever.
As far as the criticism thing goes... Around here, it's probably better to say nothing or ask if they want critiques. The tone here seems more laid back and geared towards showing off cool stuff than it is looking for critiques. But some artists ask specifically, so obviously they're looking for it. It really depends on the person. -
Yeah, good money says you're looking at the wikia paragonwiki. Which is abandoned and should no longer be used. Either use the link Aett gave or paragonwiki.com (they both point to the same wiki) to get to the correct one.

If it was ever possible at all, it was most definitely a bug.

Quote:This is my theory.Originally Posted by Prof_Backfire
As said above: They're all on CO, Test, school or just waiting for the next Issue. The servers tend to be quiet just before a major update. The calm before the storm.
We're in a mid-issue lull at the moment. Server load tends to be cyclical, heavy when a new issue comes out, and then dropping off from there until it hits it's lowest peak just before a new issue comes out.
This time, compounded with people wandering off to check out CO (and possibly wandering back in later) makes the effect a little more pronounced. -
Quote:Basically, what happened was the new forums broke the scoop. It's a lot more restrictive when it comes to HTML on the forums and it totally broke the scoop layout.Originally Posted by AgentMountaineer
It seems as if the publication of the City Scoop has been put on hold, or I just don't know that it was moved to another section of the forums. Does anybody know the status on this because I haven't seen any new editions published lately in the Announcement forum where it usually is.
The guys are working on a new method of delivering it. The scoop will be back. -
Yeah. With a boxed expansion on the way and healthy player numbers still, I think CoH is in no danger of closing up any time soon.

Quote:Apple has no qualms about leaving users behind if they're not willing to update to the latest stuff. I would imagine the new build of CoH uses something that's in the latest versions of OS X that isn't in anything prior to 10.5.7Originally Posted by CuppaManga
That's because there's really not much change in the Windows API's from XP to Vista. Software designers for Windows tend to shoot for the lowest possible platform (windows xp) because of the large number of people who refuse to upgrade. Mac users tend to stay closer to the latest version.

I agree, I think you'd regret skipping ice slick.
I'd have to see the rest of your build to make any recommendations though -

Honestly most of the ideas for the FArt challenges came from ideas i had personally for commissions of my characters. I figured snce i couldn't persue them any longer then i would see what the artists could do with the themes. It's been fun.
