Ya one of the cats are probably snoozing on the other end of the couch.

Downstairs in my office, wife sends me a photo of our boy... Appears he's having a rough day. ?

Hey Hefe. No can do this year. We'll have to get together sometime though.

@Elvis9 as beer said, just have to use the mute option. Understand you don't want to listen to that stuff, I wouldn't either. Feel free to speak up and request they discontinue to the conversation or just mute them.

@djMot I am working from home today so will try and keep an eye on server as well.

Happy Birthday all. Hope you had an excellent day. Cheers

Pretty cool Duc. Be interesting to see how it shows by game.

Excellent video choice.

At any given time, a team or both teams may have a player who don't thaw much or are new and don't understand how. As pointed out above, auto assign helps keep the teams balanced, keep them even so we are not picking and stacking, and allows the community to grow when you get to play along side different people... the social fun part of why we are here. Auto assign is not perfect and you'll never have a perfect solution when teams can dynamically change but also noted, that if the teams become too unbalanced in the middle of the round, then an admin can move players or a player themselves can decide to change teams before the round ends. The point it, auto assign works and will not be changed.

@AlphaDog Great pics. The night lights are excellent. Used to take my kids when they were younger with a sled and walk the parkway.

It's a crazy amount of water flowing over and no matter how cold, it never freezes over. It did though one time, and only once, come to a near stop due to a massive ice dam that formed on top as the river froze over, continued to flow, creating a massive dam. But only for a short time until water broke through. This was back in the mid 1800's, 1848 to be exact. Yes, I looked it up but I'm from there and worked on Clifton Hill when I was a kid, but there is a lot of great history in that area.

Guessing you are referring to FT? Auto assign keeps the teams random which in turn helps keep the teams more even and has been this way for as long as I can remember.

Well done. Haven't brewed my own beer in years. Doing my own wine at home for a while now. Find its a nice hobby sort of not to mention much cheaper than buying. Nice thing about home brew is that there really is a large selection available so nice to change it up.

Happy Birthday you all. Cheers

I'm no mechanic but think you have driven enough miles for the monitors to reset. Not aware of any drive pattern that I've heard of, just so many miles. Can always try to clear those monitors and try again. Or maybe you just have a bad o2 censor.

You are absolutely right Rob. A great machine and and low ping don't do any good if you can't shoot straight eh.

Happy Birthday! Cheers

My service is decent and although not necessary for cod5, it's nice for the busy household we have with kids and multiple streaming devices.

Not sure where all your buildings are whether inside the playable area or outside but make sure everything is within your skybox. Simple thing but can give you errors. Also, as @labob mentioned, there are some textures that when applied are not clipped by the game (I've come across such textures as fences and gates for example) so you would need to manually clip them. Mind you this is cod5 I refer to so not sure if you have similar issues with cod4.

Not quite as original as some, been a BC member for last 7 years or so before back before I started working straight days. Coffee in hand, was good times...

I generally go with a patch size of 1024 x 1024 in size and depending on the level of detail, go with 16 x 16 or higher. Just copy that patch piece an so on to create the larger terrain area. Remember that any 1 patch segment can't have more than 31 or 32 vertices.
