I'm hungry enough, and you've just made it worse :wink: I know what I'm gonna get for dinner tomorrow now, a nice big tasty juicy steak, done rare and still moving lol... I love my steak with a generous helping of stilton cheese... or any blue cheese for that matter. Blue cheese (especially stilton) is the best cheese you can get in my opinion, and it needs to mature just a little longer for perfection.

Re-install RA2, there's a possibility that a file may be corrupt in the RA2 folder.... run scandisk and defrag your hard disk as well, and make sure you hard disk isn't too full. If it just stops running like that I can't think of any reason that the above will not solve.

Well that's me out of the running, I know that's one course of action following on from what you wrote, but it's beyond me... I should have listened more in my programming classes :cry:

The term CPU to the everyday tom, dick and harry in this world means a computer, or even in terms of a computer game the term for a computer's AI, chickendippers... I must stress in this case the limited level of computer literacy still in the world today. Anyway.... How have you connected your computers up? Is it something as simple as a null modem cable? (which nobody uses nowadays)... Or have you got the computers networked VIA a PC network router?? In either case you want to make sure that the software you are using to network the 2 computers is installed and configured correctly and that all networking utilities within windows are installed and configured on both PC's. If this is still not the answer, we will need more details on the hardware you are using, the software (if any) you are using to allow communication between th PC's and what exactly (step by step) you are exactly trying to do... Then we should be able to rectify the problem.

May I ask chickendippers what the relavence of that previous post was... you made no personal comment to contribute towards the topic... Or was Gazdude's quote the point you were trying to stress?

My god this is basic programming and now i wished i payed attention at school. If I remember somewhat and I'm probably wrong here is the output as follows? gets(preprogrammed name); puts("My name is , "); puts(preprogrammed name); There are more advanced executables where you can have full if ifragmented conversations with the program executable.

OK simple as it sounds, we've all seem films been remade.. like Ocean's 11, and the Italian Job and we've seen certain games get a spruce up... Titles include: Dune: Battle for Arrakis = Dune 2000 Castle Wolfenstein = Return to Castle Wolfenstein C&C: TD = RV Mech's Gold blend (ok it was a mod but you see what i mean) Pacman = Pacman PS2 R-type = R-Type PS2 Pitfall = Pitfall: The lost expedition PS2 What I want to know is what classic old Retro games would you like to see remade into modern day quilivents with all the modern graphics and sounds, but with the original tucked in there somewhere?

True... I suppose. Any Retro games out there you wouldn't mind seeing brought back to life again???

Well this wasn't the reception you or even I was hoping for :roll: Come on guys, surely you remember Hans!!!!

Indian curry is in the UK, it's the national dish :lol:

He posted them in the wrong forums to begin with.. as I can't moderate site discussion I couldn't move this topic into this forum... You may continue... :wink:

Not yet anyway :lol:

Dunno how many people have seen the sci-fi comedy Red Dawrf, but that has a talking toaster in it, and that don't use microsot narrator.... unless Microsoft are still going in 3 million years time... which they probably will be.

I remember the days when CNCNZ.com was originally called TiberianSun.Net.NZ or TSNNZ, that was not a fun one to keep typing, in and when I first started coming here, had trouble remembering it, what made matters worse is that I always used to use it at school, at home, wasn't really the time I had to view the site.. Well not until www.cnc.net.nz came along, once that started, I applied for the site as a news updater, and finally got the position in September/October 2000, even though in the staff page it says 2001

News is posted on main page! Keep your updates coming and myself our staff will hopefully get onto it as soon as we get it. :wink:

For a completely Freeware games site, I recommend Gamehippo. No flash games for your browser, just quality downloads from amatuer and professional programmers alike, giving their games away for free, all on one site.. So visit http://www.gamehippo.com

Well it wasn't so much an arguement, maybe at the time it came across that way, but you 2 were certainly making some really pointless posts.... I think the term debating is more suited to how you and Rogue Leader were posting. But things like (and I have a quote).. Stuff like that... There were so many more basic posts like that back then, but all became great comedy to watch.... Most of it took part in the first great 30+ page "Drunken Stupor" Thread... where mindless posts were the highlight of the forums. :lol:

A QD you mean, yeah i know, seen someone do it, unless you have a hands free you're gonna look like a total pratt, anyway the QD is slightly better, but for some reason, more expensive in the UK??

To be honest mate I have no idea :lol: But was it when you started mentioning ranks or sommit that you and rogue leader started that post blitz between ya.... you'd argue like children, and for what? The prestigious honour of being the highest poster.... Now in topic terms that means you were fighting for top rank, and that is a... erm.... OK I'm back on topic, please continue... :wink:

In all technicallity you can with that XDA from O2, but, it's I dunno, a bit weird I suppose, you want compact, lightweight solutions, not a PDA.. But saying that I want a N-gage, OK it's crap as a phoe, but I just want it for the gaming with the novelty of actually being near a phone when I'm playing, so I don't have to get off my ass if it rings :lol:

oh you make me laugh... how predictable is my list [*]Renegade: RenAlert [*]Dragonball Z: Budokai (PS2) [*]Dragonball Z: Budokai 2 (PS2) [*]Dragonball Z: SNES & Genesis (Emulators) [*]Dragonball Z: Gameboy (you've seen it advertised on this site) [*]Dragonball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 (PSone) There are a few more, but as you can see, the list is domiated by Renegade there, the other games, well they don't mean much, after all I aint a fan of any particular genre of the many genre's of game there*** and I can't seem to get those damn bullet points to work :wink: *** = Every Dragonball game has been a fighting game just in case you can't figure it out *EDIT* - Bullet points yipeee

McDonals is a bit crap... subway, my god they are to die for..... i tell ya, if ya out and you want lunch, find a subway! You'll be glad you did :wink:

I have friends who have the strange and twisted ability to blow half a month's wages on slot machines.... and they say they don't have a gambling problem :lol:

I bet when they release the LOTR game it will get a few patches to balance bugs and so on then they will move on to the next money make.....just like they did with Generals and Zero Hour. If that was any other games development company, the revenue and profits, would probably slide due to the fact that the basic development is crap! I hope EA begin to mess up big time in their development, and a seemingly good quality titles come out with more bugs and crashes then you can shake a stick at... and get complaints from the customers.. it would certainly make them wake up to the fact that their after development service has got to improve.. Then again, it probably wont.... they'll most likely shake their shoulders, say "oh well" and carry on just like Sonic said. It is to be honest a real unprofessional way of doing business and shouldn't be allowed. But EA will be EA and we can't change the way they are. Mind you they are the microsoft of the games world in terms of market domination for shelf space, and the amount of money they have... Perhaps EA should have an enquiry into the amount of takeovers they do and how they direct their business towards the public just like microsoft.... maybe it will allow smaller companies like the once beloved Westwood to stand a chance of not being forced by a hostile take over...

If it's my information then it's usually pre-determined but so it should be, i don't mean to be wrong... (we all are sometimes), but I'm like a typical journalist..... something catches my eye, I'm gonna report it.
