LOL, have you applied liberal amounts of insecticide?

DW has no *box* BTW - perhaps you made one yourself for your copy, as sign of love and affection? :|\

ROFL re virgos. I don't think too many gamers here know anything about astrology but I got your hint (horoscope babble is my favorite girl-talk :oops: )

As for having twins... when my wife was expecting (I have two kids), I stayed home and played games like never before :ping: :rock:

So it's not much of an excuse. :rotfl:

I think Xabba had twins some time ago - is it him you had on your mind in your post? Or are twins endemic to DWX crowd? If that's the case watch out if you think about joining the crew. :arrgh!:

O.

Thanks.

I simply want the game to be better, whether it is under the name DWX matters not to me. I don't think I have a solid grasp on what they are doing, but my feeling is, if you have *anything* that might inspire the DW community to play the game more or to be more positive in working on improving the game to get new players on board, it's a good idea to put it out or give info on it at least.

The silence from SCS and the DWX team is the least productive way of going about things, if your goal is to keep the game alive and growing while the work is being done, IMHO.

Being completely honest, all of the changes that I personally have made in the mod (granted they are gameplay changes rather than bug fixes for the most part, but still, for me, constitude a major increase in game-playability, perhaps simply because of taste) would probably take a DWX person or SCS programmer all of an hour to make (being clear, all of Amizaur's changes were very difficult and took a great deal of work and knowledge on his part), so I really don't know why the "official" stock version of the game is still stuck at 1.01 with no "official" word from anyone.

Boomer my friend I note we joined Subsim board on the same day, almost 4 years ago!

I feel some special closeness to you now... now why this board does not have kissy-kiss smiley face like some others have? LOL :rotfl:

O.

You are wrong Oleg because I joined here 7/8 years ago ,more or less when 688 was in rough developing stage.

On that time maybe you were still fiddling around with latest Pac-Man versions but I already signed petitions at that time to support the never supported 688 campaign...

( I joined your assist this time..... :P )

You know I 'm the masked hero to bring freedom in this world :) but time goes on and the hero is old and now needs some spare time to have fun with others matters....anyway don't panic, sometimes I'll be back to greet my old friends, nothing of personnel of course :P

Jamie said there is BETATESTING going .. any of you knows something about that ? Is anyone here betatester ?
Sonalyst guys are smart enought not to promise anything. And so it is .. they did not. They say the work on it, NOTHING else.
I think most people here believes in the patch because they just want it so badly. I have seen this with many games .. even with 'Pacific fighters' THE patch came in the and .. about 1 year after I quited playing that gama.

It's really frustrating to hear people bemoan the lack of a patch when all of the major bugs left the game with the v1.01 and sound vs. speed hotfix.

The things that seem to prevent most people from playing them game now are just values in a datatable put there for "gameplay reasons."

DW with the v1.01 patch, the sound vs. speed hotfix, finiteless sound mods, and *ahem* me and Amizaur's Mod (shameless plug) is as good as any simulation I have ever played except for Combat Mission. :know: :up: :arrgh!:

No beta testing yet. :nope:
But there is no doubt in my mind there is one coming. :rock:

Eventually....

Does the addon fix the blind AI, or the super broandband in Kilo, or being able to detect masts by radar, or created a thermal layer that works. :nope:

These are my "patch" wishes..... :up:

Plenty to get on with - whats the hurry - enjoy Luft Ams mod /design scenarios/play with DBEditor/Master a new platform.......................
the game is very playable - why not give it a try ?

Go pick your nose, anything but moan. :lol:

Hear endeth rant. ;)

The AI get's its share of kills against me. Maybe I suck.

I don't know what you mean about the Kilo broadband, but it can probably be fixed rather easily. The DB sonar modding is pretty simple aside from the geometry stuff.

In terms of thermal layers, I think it works?

The radar mast issue, i believe was a mistake by the person who posted it, and he later corrected himself because his test scenarios were bugged. :up:

Kilo BB has faults previously seen in SC ? 'Click to find' fault/cheat ? Also read that range too great
(The two things are the sides of a coin) Think I read this was overlooked in Beta - should be easyish to fix.

Fish knows all about this and he will confirm or correct me.

Is the KILO cheat now taken seriously?
I can wait for a fix, but till now I didn't see it was taken as a serious problem.


I took it seriously and fixed it for the next patch! I don't know when it will come out.......
