Hey there,

I'm Dracion, been playing a bit on your Gmod server and it seems very friendly :3 As well as Gmod I play far too much TF2, mostly on the Clan of Doom Toyfort server as I'm an admin for them.

As far as Gmod goes I know a fair bit of wire stuff, as well as some basic E2 things so feel free to ask me if you're unsure on anything.

Also please please please add Fin 2 to the server, it's great for making planes

See you on the servers

So I was building my house just a little away from spawn when I notice a new player join, I haven't had company in awhile so I thought it would be nice to have another player to talk to besides myself, but sadly he turned out to be a mingebag and I eventually had to leave the server because I got so sick of it, he actually did more before this but I decided not to take a screenshot of it because I thought he was just mucking about, so when he started to set my house on fire, I got pretty annoyed.

My tortoises!

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 02:44:20 +0400

Just thought I would share some images. I have a Spur Thighed Tortoise and baby Horsfield tortoise which only just this weekend we made a new enclosure for it. Sadly our bigger tortoise has what we know as a runny nose, and we have to keep taking it to the vets for a few weeks for antibiotics.

Make you're vote, OR suggestion!

Real life Force a’ Nature

Sat, 28 Aug 2010 03:55:33 +0400

Harrison Krix made a Force a’ Nature from the popular game, Team Fortress 2. He basically uses everything he can, such as MDF board, clay, duct tape, paint, jars and more bits and bobs that came in useful. He carefully recreates props from games, and then sells them as items of unique art. Here’s the process he went through to construct the Force a’ Nature.

Rather impressive if you ask me.

Browser Gaming

Sun, 22 Aug 2010 12:14:51 +0400

After the release of more powerful browsers, and the new HTML5, online games are becoming ever more popular, with reasonable 'graphics' and enjoyable game play. HTML will allow the ability for apps to store data on your systems for designers to embed video onto a page.

It has even been said that A game coded for HTML5 could run on any tablet, mobile phone or browser without any extra software with the so called 'canvas' element, which enables dynamic 3D graphics. HTML5 is believed to be a big leap forward and possible meaning an end to adobe flash. There will be no installations, no plugins, or downloads! Although HTML5 and JavaScript will not have the power to handle really high spec games in a little tab on you're browser, there are still a huge number of games already out there on the web. Although this browser gaming does sound a bit too good to be true, flash will not be leaving just yet, as the need to programmers, designers and tools are needed to start seeing these browser games, which I can see being a very popular thing for possibly those crafty office workers!

All we can do is look forward to what there may be in the pipe line... HTML5 is still fairly new, but there will be some incredible games.

Here are some HTML5 games you may wish to try.

FreeCiv - Conquer the world @ http://www.freeciv.net

Unreal megathread

Tue, 17 Aug 2010 22:14:10 +0400

This thread is dedicated to the unreal series, I'm not good with the Op i know. My very first megathread.

Unreal

Unreal, one of the greatest atmospheric games of its time, it was developed by Epic games in 1996-7 and released in 1998.

The flyby map when you start the game.

The Plot:

*Shamelessly took it from wikipedia*

The player takes on the part of Prisoner 849, an otherwise anonymous persona aboard the prison spacecraft Vortex Rikers. The ship crash-lands on the lip of a canyon on the planet Na Pali, home of the Nali, a primitive tribal race of four-armed humanoids. The Nali and their planet have been subjugated by the Skaarj, a race of brutish yet technologically advanced reptilian humanoids. Skaarj troops board the downed Vortex Rikers and kill the remaining survivors, save for Prisoner 849, who manages to arm himself and escape from the ship.

The planet Na Pali is rich in "Tarydium", a mineral that is found as light blue crystals, which possesses a high energy yield, whose utility is the reason for which the Skaarj have invaded. The ship has crashed near one of the many Tarydium mines and processing facilities that the Skaarj have built. Prisoner 849 travels through the mines, meeting Nali slaves and eventually entering the ruins of Nali villages and cities, where the extent of the Nalis' suffering and exploitation are made clear.

Throughout the game the player stumbles across the remains of other humans, often with electronic journals that detail their last days and hint at the cause of their demise. Usually the tales are of desperate struggles to hide from the Skaarj or other bloodthirsty inhabitants of the planet. The player never meets another live human aside from a wounded crew member on the bridge of the prison ship who gasps and dies immediately.

Prisoner 849 continues to make his way through a series of alien installations, crashed spaceships, and ancient Nali temples infested with Skaarj troops and their minions, eventually arriving at the Nali Castle. Inside the castle, the prisoner locates a teleporter that leads to the Skaarj Mothership. The mothership proves to be a vast labyrinth, but Prisoner 849 manages to find the ship's reactor and destroys it, plunging the vessel into darkness. After navigating the corridors in the dark, the player arrives at the Skaarj Queen's chamber and kills her. Prisoner 849 jumps into an escape pod as the mothership disintegrates. Although the prisoner survives the Skaarj, the escape pod is left to float into space, with slim hopes of being found.

In-game screenshots

Unreal Tournament

Unreal tournament is to cover Unreal's mistake: The multiplayer
A lot of stuff had been added, along with new weapons for your killing needs.

Story: Unreal tournament never had a story really.

Gamemodes and screenshots.

Assault
Assault: This game type is played with two opposing teams, one assaulting a "base" and the other defending it. The map is set up with a number of objectives which the attacking team must complete (usually in sequence) such as destroying something, entering an area, triggering a button, et cetera. The team who first attacks then defends, and attempts to defend for the entire time they attacked. If they can accomplish this, they win the map. If the team defending first assaults the base faster than the other team, they win the map. If both teams defend for the maximum amount of time the map is a tie.

Capture The Flag
Classic Capture the Flag. Players compete to capture the other team's flag and return it to their base. Competitive teams must use a great deal of teamplay. Both teams must defend the base from incoming attackers and get into the other team's base, take their flag and return to base. This requires that the team protect their flag carrier very well from enemies in order to complete their objective.

Team/Deathmatch
Deathmatch: It's everyman for himself, kill everyone until you reach the goal!
Team-Deatmatch: Now you've got to work together, help your teammates! First team to reach the goal wins!

Domination
The game starts with 2-4 teams, and there are 3 nodes (Configurable if creating a map) scattered around the area, you must touch the node to take control of it. The more you have, the faster you points rack up.

Plan to add my own screenshots and and host them.
Add banners.
More information.
Add the rest of the unreal games.

Temporary Registration Issues

Tue, 17 Aug 2010 02:33:18 +0400

On a plus side, the TF2 server is now up and running with RMF ability mod, which makes general game play a lot more enjoyable with added LULZ!

Maxtor Hard drive Scam

Sun, 15 Aug 2010 02:00:22 +0400

Training to be an IT technican and all, a man asked me to fix his computer, I accepted the request and got to work, It wouldnt start up at all, i tried unplugging everything to a bare minumum, it still wouldn't work.

To cut a long story short, It was unfixable, I told the guy and he said I should keep it for spare parts because its no good to him.

I looked at the size of the hard drives in there, and I saw a 320 GB one, so I thought, WOW I'm havin that (not bad for free eh?)..

I formatted the drive, turns out its only 120 GB, I couldnt work it out, it clearly said 320 GB all over the case of the drive etc, and the stickers.. So I started my googlingz research, and I found out just what I needed.

It turns out; a company went through all the trouble to fake being Maxtor, make a 120 GB drive, and pose it as a 320 GB..

How sad is this? Just to make money? Would it not be easier to steal the bloody things and sell them onwards?

Downtime and things..

Fri, 13 Aug 2010 13:43:05 +0400

You may or may not have noticed the site went down for a day or two. This was due to my web hosts main service provider (Not my Hosts fault at all) accidently terminating the account, deleting not only my website, but every site he hosts. Thankfully my host is very clever and made a full backup of everything about 11 hours before all this happened. So once again we are back online.

* Kieran, you're website will be restored shortly by my host too. Any forum posts made after the backup time will be lost, but your main website should be fine.

New! Fun Nights - Coming Soon #TF2

Mon, 09 Aug 2010 01:24:34 +0400

We are one or two weeks away from starting our weekly 'Fun Nights'. This will be on our Team Fortress 2 server, where by all the madness from the normal 24/7 Payload, will become even crazier! In the Fun Night time span, new mods, new maps, relaxed rules and community participation will mean one hell of a time.

We plan to run these Fun Nights on Fridays, and/or Saturdays either all day, or starting from a set time, until midnight! I do not want to mention any of the mods I have been looking at so far, but we are going to be starting off with just one mod, and as the 'event' grows, more choices of mods and maps will be added, and YOU, the community will be able to vote for the follow weeks Fun Night mod.

The best way to stay up to date, and not miss out will be to join our Steam Group to receive Event Notifications. We want to make this as enjoyable as possible for the community, and want to try a do similar things for our Condition Zero server in the future for anyone who wishes to join in

Keep checking back for updates!

Songs for Auto DJ?

Mon, 02 Aug 2010 22:08:19 +0400

Hopefully getting auto DJ working on the radio so when no DJ is online streaming, a load of music will continue playing. I need to double check with my host, but I think I have Disk Space of 45 GB. So that could be quiet a lot of music.

If you have any song that you would like, request it below and I will try to put it on. This will only happen obviously if I get auto DJ to work.

Ohai

Mon, 02 Aug 2010 03:05:34 +0400

Well, i'm JuG, a dutch guy, and i've been beta testing with flick and shit, and i mostly play tf2 and condition zero.
i've already been here for a while, but never really bothered to make one of these, so here it is.
also, loving the radio, missed it for a while, since i grow tired of my own songs quite quickly.
anyway, peace and lets get our crap together.
