I wonder if there is a prone only server.

There is a difference between 'tactical' servers and those that force you to crouch for some strange reason. If the idea is supposed to prevent people from running around then just tell them to walk. But I guess for them walking is too fast. Playing those servers I feel like I am going around with a walker like an old man.

Between netflix and the dvr we have plenty of stuff to watch. I just dont like the usps screwing with people and the value of my netflix subscription being cut in 1/2. I am quite certain they are unhappy because it also cuts into their promotion of next day delivery to keep their members or get new ones. Since what they did affects all 1st class mail that also means people who buy stamps are no longer getting what they pay for.

One of these days I will be upgrading the tv as well. Current one has been having problems with dark levels being too much and also a few places with dark patches. Been looking at a Roku since from what I read the built-in smart tv ones really arent competative with what you get from a standalone. Unfortunately the tv only has one hdmi, which is used by the bluray player, so I will also have to get a switch.

No torrents. I dont download ripped movies as a rule. And of course there are plenty of industry hacks using it trying to catch you. Last movie I did actually get via a torrent is when Star Trek came out in the theaters. But I already knew I was going to buy it when it came out anyways so no big deal. I cant go to theaters because they cause seizures. Star Wars ep3 was the last one I went to and I had a pretty bad partial about 5-10 minutes in.

Just in case anyone hasnt noticed, Netflix deliveries are now taking twice as long. Seems its not Netflix but the USPS deliberately adding an extra day to 1st class mail delivery. Makes me mad. Does anyone stream from them? About 5Mbps is the best download speed I am going to be able to get. Good enough for HD? Not bluray HD quality but good enough? The speed isnt totally reliable however and sometimes it dips to 1.5, http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/local/2015/01/02/first-class-mail-change/21217773/ http://wlns.com/2015/01/05/delays-begin-for-first-class-overnight-mail-delivery/

Just to add, these should be the last significant improvements for 1.46 other than bug fixes or optimizing things. There are still a few strange things going on that dont affect gameplay but just dont look good. So if everything works out the main server will change over when its all stable.

Uploaded new files to the 1.46 b3 server. In addition to bug fixes: Care Packages / Decoys changed to use the high altitude 'space drop'. So no helis or ac130. Just drops on high with a rocket for soft landing. The marker is a beacon effect that will explode when it stops moving. After the marker appears it will take apx 7 seconds for the drop to complete. It will drop on the marker but continue to make sure nothing at all is over it. Because I cannot do physics, at this time if the LOS trace line hits a lamp post it will get stuck there. Overwatch upgraded to a stealth chopper. Each team has its own camo (tan for allies grey for axis). Being stealth it will not show up on the minimap, is somewhat quieter, and SAMs will not lock. Otherwise no changes. Unfortunately its greyed out online so I missed something and I will fix this weekend. In the meantime I invite people to try out the care package + decoy and let me know how it goes. Thx.

It's 'grandma'.

Maybe that would be a good incentive for them to relocate back to the US. Nah.

Sometimes there will be errors like that if the map has a bug or glitch. It will say unknown error: something. The 'something' could be a strange word depending on what is in the map.

I guess balls are better when they are soft. But I dont play with other peoples balls. Just my own.

I know of a real simple solution. The phone companies should allow people to block all calls from India.

Blender will do what you want for simple static models in a map. Unless you are prepared to shell out the bucks for Maya. http://www.blendernation.com/2011/12/30/add-on-create-models-and-animations-for-call-of-duty-with-blendercod/ http://wiki.modsrepository.com/index.php?title=Call_of_Duty:_Blender_to_COD http://modsonline.com/Tutorials-read-625.html?start=

Whatever happened to windows 9?

Master server has been down for over a month now. They will only say 'we are aware of the problem' but wont say what it is. So no word on when they will fix it. If at all.

Also got tired of the crouch nazis. Its a fucking game. I dont like bunnies either but you can get em with practice and its part of the game. So long as they arent lagbind cheaters.

Thou shalt not use Windows?

Crouch servers are overrated. If the goal is to move slowly then just stand and move without sprinting.

Remember, its not the size that counts. Or so they say.

I did yesterday run the bitdefender rootkit scanner and it didnt find anything. Just to be sure. Also antimallware and S&d. Just the usual housecleaning stuff. edit: well it didnt find any nasties. I guess the message about there being a disk problem was it and it was fixed. But I suppose that means I should do a more thorough examination.

Thx I will try those. I hardly ever got bsod so this was unusual. I am also careful to never open email attachments and I refuse to ever go on facebook. Oh, and I will never buy a premade PC.

That would more properly be http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=shoulda%20coulda%20woulda

Does it have that new car smell? If not, I think it comes in a can.

Thx. I thought there was an actual text log and it seems a dump would be written... if it was enabled. Which is wasnt. Of the two warnings today one says something about loading all dlls for every application around the time of the startup attempts. Maybe its related to the repair? But it seems to be happening now and then anyways and it didnt cause crashes. Dunno. But nothing that suggests anything what the bsod was for. The repair screen did twice say it was fixing some disk problems after which it restarted. The other is a DNS timeout for a place called slide.com that no longer exists. Wiki says Google bought it several years ago but it is now shutdown. I assume the web browser is trying to find it but the dns servers dont know what it is. Also fitocares.org whatever that is. Maybe they are ads for places that no longer exist. If so, no idea what would still be trying to access them.
