  1. TechnoWars has been located!! A big thanks to Chaos for finding it on his PC! I tried many places but all links are dead. Anyway, more screenies!
  2. Before anyone jumps in here and yells (or otherwise states) that HOLY CRAP IDIOT YOU SHOULD NEVER OVERCLACK YOULL BURN THE WORLD!!!11!ELEVEN, please realize that he did ask advice on how to safely do it, meaning that he's going to. Just thought I'd throw that in first since most threads like this have at least one naysayer that gets pissed off because someone else is OC'ing. It'll be ok. /shortrant The first thing I would do is google your particular CPU and see what others have achieved, and read what all they went through to do it. Lots of Asus boards like yours (the sabertooth is pretty high end) allow for "safe" overclocking, in a sort of "stepped" manner. In other words, sometimes it just knows right away when you open the OC utility that X speed is safe and gives you an option to do it. This is safer than manually editing values. In the case of my old machine, it ran 3.2 out of the box, and had a "safe step" that the board detected as 3.7. I hit go and it rebooted and said the changes had applied successfully. It also said that 3.9 might be possible. Tried it and it failed. Reverted to 3.7 and ran it for 3 years like that before I sold it last year to a guy who is still running it at 3.7 with no problems (AMD Phenom X6 1090T on a Asus Crosshair IV btw). If yours has anything like that available then thats the way I would do it. If you want more and want to get into manually OC'ing....just be very careful and read as much as you can about your particular chip AND the combination of it with your board and boards with the same chipset as yours.
  3. Turns out that I didn't lose all the maps. I found enough of them to answer my own question What was the map with the slow blowing flame throwers? Dark Hole! Screenshots to come!
  4. I agree wholeheartedly with this. I would suggest in addition to this though, that "shipping costs" be added as well. More incentive to keep the thing alive in the first place.
  5. Granted! No financial aid! I wish for more bandwidth.
  6. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that this requires removing the RS/RPG and re-adding another version that has the nerf applied. So the reason why we can't do this is that we can't add units to the PT when a structure is lost....
  7. See that giant hole in the wall? Yeah? The cricket did that...
  8. ah ok. I would have looked, but unfortunately I lost all the maps I had. I probably only kept one copy in the install dir and forgot to backup when switching PCs or something.... There was another map that had the slowblow flamers....what was it called?
  9. Voodoo & witchcraft, coming to a registry near you! /kidding Please let us know if that solves the issue!
  10. Hey, it might be a good candidate for a christmas special though!
  11. *opens time capsule* For some reason, I never really took many screenshots back in the day (probably didn't know how for a while haha) but I found some in my really old stuff that look like they're from .9935 single player. They depict some old maps and some mechanics that are drastically changed now, such as water and elevators. I couldn't post (or even open) some because they're still in the old .tga (targa) file type. I'll try to get them open and converted. Don't remember the name of this map, but I remember the huge mega-tall castle...which I for some reason decided to jump off and skate down the side of like a boss I should totally be dead... Hey, who wouldn't? Dat gap A Phase whatnow? Old map called Treetop something...can't remember exactly. Treetop Jungle maybe? I believe it was fan-made. Probably more to come. EDIT: Found my beta multiplayer screenshots! I'll post some later.
  12. @bro888 Did you mean to make a new thread and accidentally post here instead?
  13. Oh man, if they're even half as good as the TSR ones, we'll be in for a real treat! Please do it!
  14. If you want to go overkill, add tesla coils, a gap gen, and camo pillboxes. Map idea - Fissure9000 /totally kidding
  15. I would assume thats in the top level..? I wouldn't mind that either, provided it were a much smaller map for cases like that. There's a lot of potential here!
  16. db is creating a standalone version. I realize that your intentions were pure in stating this, but in the future you might ask dblaney (or whoever it might be applicable to) just to make sure that you have the latest facts. No harm done in this case, but this could have accidentally created a good bit of confusion. Just a tip
  17. Except maybe medics and RA_CoastalInfluence's soviet refinery position. The map is undergoing some change to try to balance this out. If you'll look here, you can see the changes.
  18. Care to expound on your reasoning here? I'm one of these curious types see... Call it an experiment. I hope to see the naval buildings destroyed by naval. If it ends up feeling weird in play testing, I can change it to a normal door. Alright then, fair enough. I love what I see
  19. Well tickle me orange.

    1. Pushwall

      Pushwall

      This is more relevant than ever now

  20. But it does require admin rights to install it....unless Program files is now open for free editing from non admin users? Sure, it could install games to some random folder in the user's profile with no rights at all but thats silly IMO. No other users could use them then. Or do I misunderstand this? Question: What bad thing could happen from this program that we know isn't malicious running at admin level? If it doesn't do anything bad, what is the fear here? I really do feel like I'm missing something. Or do all installers just not need to run as admin anymore for writing their needed reg edits and copying their needed files?
  21. I love what I see. Great work so far man! Care to expound on your reasoning here? I'm one of these curious types see...
