Re: Forray Into The Land Of Linux
Well, this didn't solve my problem. I cleared the MBR and I still get that boot agent. It has to be part of the motherboard anyway since that's the piece that caused this thing to appear in the first place. I can't find anything in the BIOS that could be an option for this and the Boot Agent's own o...

Re: Forray Into The Land Of Linux
Thanks Ginto. I'll pitch this on the Kubuntu forum and see what people say. As far as #1, should I boot to my installation of Linux, or the "Try it without installing" option? Does it matter?

Re: Questions about loading maps and check out my new project!
Awesome dude! You're making serious progress here. What is left on the agenda for the level editor? What next once the editor is in a state you're pleased with?

Re: Forray Into The Land Of Linux
I will say that having learned DOS as my first OS made the transition to windows much easier. =) I had DOS as my first OS too. I think that's part of being old though. I remember getting my first windows system right around the time Right Said Fred came out with "I'm Too Sexy" O_o Anyway,...

Re: Forray Into The Land Of Linux
I've got Kubuntu 64 installed, and I've reinstalled GRUB a dozen times and still can't get this to boot on it's own. Trying to get help from the Kubuntu forums, but doesn't seem to be getting anywhere
I refuse to give up though! Grr

Re: Questions about loading maps and check out my new project!
Yeah, I was using the 1, 2, 3, 4 version. I'll have to check the newer one out later though since the wife is craving some attention :P

Re: Questions about loading maps and check out my new project!
Works great for me! Runs smooth, did not encounter any bugs. Couple suggestions: It's very easy to get lost in the tile map, making it difficult to know what tiles are adjacent to the selected tile or where to find tiles similar to the selected tile. Maybe you could add a function that shows the ent...

Re: Fav Game Composers
I'm a big fan of Rik Schaffer (DAoC, VtM: Bloodlines, NWN2: Mask of the Betrayer)
His pieces have a really full, creepy ambiance that I really dig.

Re: Forray Into The Land Of Linux
Hmm, well I reinstalled Kubuntu using the 64 bit version (something I should've done in the first place ::facepalm::) and it's still not booting on it's own. Turning into quite the headache, may just table the whole project till I can bribe one of my linux friends with a case of beer.

Re: PEW PEW! SHMUP Game! Need Feedback
I couldn't find it anywhere! Had to borrow it from a friend who lucked out on finding a used copy. Game Update: Capped the Enemies and Objects and have not been able to generate any frame slow-down. I'm running a Q6600 though with 4gb though (not that my n00b-ass code takes advantage of quad-core) C...

Thanks for the well wishes everyone. She just came back from a checkup and the vet was really pleased with how well she was doing. She's moving her stump a lot so it seems pretty likely that she'll regain all feeling. We had company last night and she was eager to socialize so everything is looking ...

Re: You guys have seen Pulp Fiction, right?
oh come on guys. he's young and it was WELL before his time.
that being said, mcgee, you should probably see it. Youve likely seen it referenced or parodied a hundred times. It's a big part of pop culture. Also an incredibly good movie by it's own merrit.

Re: Forray Into The Land Of Linux
Kubuntu installed ok, but it doesn't want to boot on it's own. I can boot it with the CD, but otherwise it will just keep trying to boot from CD (the second boot drive) or if I set BIOS to only boot from HD I just get a cursor that blinks forever. I've spent a fair amount of time trying to fix this ...
