Quoting: Purple Library GuyIs it weird that I can accept all kinds of bizarre stuff in games but on this one I can't get my head past "But is it an otter or a cat?!"

Or maybe a Giant Mouse ?

Spoiler, click me

Quoting: furaxhornyxI know ; still, it didn't work for me :sad:

Which game is giving you problems?

From the top of my head: Micromachines v4 and Arturia Storm Electro (which is not a game, but an old music software).
Micromachines is currently installed on a pc running Vista 32 bits, which is the most recent windows version on which the game will work.

Don't worry though, it's not as if I couldn't live without those, I was just replying to:

Quoting: CybolicAt this rate, doesn't Wine actually have better general Windows compatibilities now than Win7/8 did when they came out?

:wink:

Not sure ; for me, the only (very few) games and application that were not compatible with win7 were using anti-copy software such as Starforce (which, unless I missed something, do not work under Wine either, since they rely on a special driver being installed).

Still, this does not remove Wine's merit to allow compatibility with so many games :wink:

Remember that you can use no CD patches for those cases. AFAIK, most Starforce games have one... or at least a patched disk imagen.

Quoting: eldakingI feel intrigued by the idea of "tiny" MO. MMOs tend to be a hellhole and not only because of griefers, scalpers, and obnoxious people: in order to force people to interact, they make it impossible to play the game at your own pace. You have to grind to keep up with others otherwise you won't be able to do the meaningful things, have to pay attention to the meta to get grouped up, have to repeatedly craft only whatever is in higher demand, and so on. I enjoy exploring vast (and lived-in) persistent worlds and doing story quests and such, but I don't want to commit to a MMO because it is usually time-consuming and unpleasant.

I'm not sure, though, how this one will work. It sounds more like "interact with strangers, but just a little" than "occasionally join your friends".

Or maybe by "tiny", they mean "small servers", like The Fourth Coming (T4C) back in the day, and their servers of 200 people :wink:

Quoting: scaineThis one reminds me of the old 16-bit title, Trailblazer, but mixed with SEUM-style graphics. I love the destructive terrain too, which also reminds me of Samsai's twitch run a couple of years back... cluster trucks... I think it was called Cluster Trucks?

Might have to pick this one up. It looks great!

Yeah, I was thinking about Cluster Truck too at first, until I noticed that it is not first person view, you actually control the little blue thingy from third person POV...

Quoting: ValckOn the other hand, if there were one who did not even have idiot lights RGB illumination to begin with, on a component that goes inside a metal case never to be seen again, that would be even preferable.

And bonus points if they keep price reasonable, instead of charging you Premium Price with the "G4m3r 1337 Extra Super Edtion with real RGB LED (tm)" :whistle:

One of the features that Google promised way before Stadia was even released is also finally here with Crowd Play now in Beta. This is where you could livestream a game to YouTube, and anyone can click a button to just queue up to play with the livestreamer.

Streamhacking as simple as clicking on a button... Streamers will be delighted ! :grin:

Quoting: 3zekielTo be perfectly fair, neither nvidia(mostly with cuda stuff, never for gaming to be fair) nor amd give the hassle free/clean road so far, both have their catch.

I am thinking the same, from what I have read here and there (I am curious about Intel stuff though...)
