  1. Now that you ask... I dunno, it lacks a bit of depth I think. It's a bit plain because there is little contrast, except for the steam which is really bright. If you try lowering the opacity/brightness of the steam and add stronger shadows along the contours (especially around the water surface), it would add depth and make it pop a bit more. I can give it a go in Photoshop to demonstrate what I mean if you like.
  2. Looks great, the shadowing is nice. I like the smoke/steam effects
  3. Meh, GIFs are soooo late 90's
  4. I've been wanting gif avatars for some time. Why can't we use a external URL link for a picture like you could on mw2forum/fpsheadquarters?
  5. Fuck yeah, awesome... I need this game! The Alien movies are some of my absolute favorites
  6. I've yet to hear anyone do a vibrato anywhere near as sexy and soulful as in this song... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvMPDGxQzqA&feature=youtube_gdata_player
  7. I've never listened to Stevie Ray Vaughan more than a few songs, probably because his style didn't grab my attention when I first heard him. He wasn't bad at in any way but his music just doesn't do anything for me... My first impression when I heard him many years ago was that he tried to be Jimi Hendrix, albeit more technically skilled. He certainly looked, sounded and behaved like Hendrix in many ways. His performance in the video you posted was certainly impressive. You can really see that he gave 110% when he played live
  8. Meh. Joe Satriani and Steve Vai FTW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0L6bHSOH6w&feature=youtube_gdata_player
  9. Seems like I'm the only here who does not understand what's so good about SRV
  10. So, we should report people for having different opinions? I was referring to to people who don't like certain topics.
  11. He didn't see what killed him though, he had his head all over the place.
  12. Here's a video. Can anyone give their guess on what's happening to that player/car at 0:15-0:37 who re-appears at 0:52? Also, 01:28-01:45? Apparently I killed a guy without even touching him, first and only time it happened.
  13. So I don't know if anyone here still plays this game but I wanted to share this. Hopefully someone will have an explanation for what's happening, I'm really curious to know how it works. Yesterday I discovered a glitch to make your car invisible and allows you to drive straight through most objects. Basically what I did to accomplish this was: 1. Have your spawn setting set to "last location" so you will spawn in the street when you enter a game 2. Sit in a car of choice, get a wanted level and let the cops kill you 3. As soon as you die and see the "wasted" screen, wait 2 seconds and hold the PS button, turn off the console as quickly as you can 4. Next time you start up the game, select online in the loading screen 5. As soon as it loads you should be rolling down the street in a completely invisible car. You can now drive straight through cars, lamp posts, pedestrians and other players. When I meet most players like this, they seem to randomly disappear when I get close to them. Their cars just slow down and stop right after they pass me. Some players won't disappear and when I drive through them their cars kind of get stuck to me like but it doesn't slow me down. I haven't found anything about this particular glitch. I have a few videos of it that I will be uploading soon.
  14. Steve's next project? A badass toilet? I mean you have to make it fit with the rest of the stuff in the house
  15. Nah, that's not what I meant. To me it seems that one of those who treated you that way still likes to take every opportunity available to show that they don't like you, many times in very subtle ways. It's a very common type of bullying that I've experienced myself. That's what I meant with it still being a thing... Being "anti Datte".
  16. Here I will explain what I meant by my message in the shoutbox. This has been going on for a while: First, Dattebayo was the one who got was treated like crap because he felt depressed, wanted some sympathy and then left because he felt bullied. I think one person apologized to him about that. It still seems to be a "thing", though. After this, Steve expressed his beliefs in a thread, which he felt the need to instantly defend before there even were any replies... I don't think that's OK at all. I don't know what he expected or from who but it wasn't something good. In another thread, there was a lot of hostility against Jsin because he didn't agree on a subject. Now again, when Lee started one of his threads, which are controversial for a lot of people. Jsin lashed out at him because he didn't agree with it. These are just a few... Why can't we agree to disagree? If we don't like something, it's really easy to not spend time reading it and avoid adding negative or condescending replies that won't provide anything meaningful to the discussion. It seems like there are A LOT of tensions that have never been dealt with. I find this difficult to deal with for these simple reasons: Example 1. I'm not sure I can mention anything about person 2 or 3 to person 1, because if person 1 still has beef with those people, might make things awkward and I feel it will affect that friendship. 2. If I agree with or talk to person 2 about something, person 1 or 3 or might have the same reaction and things will get weird. 3. Etc. etc. 3. This is all difficult because person 1, 2 and 3 are all what I consider good friends (even though I never met you). I just don't know, this makes me very uncomfortable. I often feel that I must choose sides... Do I want to do that? No... Absolutely not. But what else is there to do? Should I leave and hope to find another place that is just like this? I don't think it's going to happen. The most similar place I've found to this community is Reddit but that place is largely anonymous with it's huge user base and it's difficult to really get to know anyone there. I honestly don't know why it's so difficult to apologize to each other and move on with our problems. It's really childish, to be honest. Especially when they the people on the receiving end are younger than you. We have long talked about being a "one-of-a-kind" community, where everyone is friendly and prepared to help each other out when someone needs it. We want to grow by having new members joining us, but that's not going to happen if we can't even solve our internal issues between veteran members on these forums. If we respond with hostility to topics we don't like or agree with, the result will be more anger and grief towards each other. If we then refuse to acknowledge about what's going on, it will only worsen it and lead to people distrusting each other and this community even more. Which in turn will lead to more members leaving and it will eventually wither and die. That's the truth. The general mood for me is that this place has been turning into what we all wanted to leave not too long ago.
  17. Unfortunately, some of the programs listed don't seem to be available any longer or they are really hard to find... If someone can find a Karbon14 win32/64 installer for me, I will love you.
