Later that week, I found myself filling in for Encrypshun in the Operator's chair when Captains CountZero, noVus and Occulus met with The Tailor... Thu Feb 09 14:36:45 2006, Recursion, Lamar North Hardline, Downtown - Occulus, CountZero, n...

Here's a link to my conversation with the Tailor ... more to come shortly... Message Edited by KernelPanic on 02-17-2006 12:29 PM

While making my rounds in the dream world, I happened across The Tailor, whom had briefly contacted my Captain. I send him a communique, and what follows is our conversation... KernelPanic - good evening sir. You recently contacted my Capt...

Oh and as far as Python goes, MxO is not written in Python, I believe they just use that for some db/text processing utilities within the code. I can't imagine an entire game written in Python, as you still have to deal with the gfx and lo...

Ok first I have to smack the crap out of an ignorant troll before I get to the meat of this. Fondo have you ever actually looked at the Windows API? Have you ever looked at Windows design documentation vs any other OS? OS X is based off BS...

Heck, I'd be happy with just some method of getting bits other than decomping stuff off vendors. Thanks for unbalancing coding SOE *grumble*

Hello devs and testers. I wanted to throw out my .02 on testing, and give my thoughts on good practices as far as tester/dev interaction goes. One of the biggest problems I've seen on both sides of the dev/tester line is that tester's real...

IMHO a chat for the entirety of MxO, is a bad idea as it's a huge administrative burdon. However, having a global chat channel for QA only might be a nice feature, so that users that are testing, can have a network of people reproducing th...

Heyya, I'm currently working on a new router, and I'm considering using Squid/ClamAV/NetFilter for some transparent proxying/AV goodness. Without having to fire up a port scanner, do you know off the top of your head how much MxO uses (ser...

hmmmmmmmm considerably bizarre, I restarted MxO and it no longer was happening... I'll update this if I can find a way to reproduce it...

Hello, I just noticed this with the latest patch, but cannot verify it's existance before that. First off, I have only MxO and TeamSpeak running, and the issue does not present itself with just TeamSpeak running. I have no other external p...

It was a quiet day. I just jacked in, started writing some utility codes. Hell I had even found a new gun! All in all things were going well. Ridd was watching the feeds, while I was working. "Are you just gonna sit there KP?" he asked, so...

Actually MOD_D, noVus was referring to the linked thread he posted not replying to, not this thread.

Already seen in twice and perhaps going to go a 3rd time. They did a good job of introducing the personality quirks of the cast (9 members!) in a very short ammount of time, so if you never caught Firefly when it was on, you shouldn't be t...

Just updated the thread with additional info and a current (as of now) list of affected and not affected ISP's.

Ok, well I've done some reading on this topic. The following ISP's appear to be affected: RoadRunner Earthlink (fixed) The following are not affected: SBC Adelphia The following need confirmation but may be affected: AOL Verizon A big deal...

seriously people, maybe this thread wouldn't be an issue if you just ****ING IGNORED IT!!!

Yup, little companies like RoadRunner, Verizon, etc can't access certain sites due to this issue. This is a biggie and will potentially set a prescedence for government regulation and/or more outages like this in the future. The outcome of...

Great idea guys! I've already got an entry lined up... had to pull out my old beta outfit for this one Look forward to seeing all the entries!

Well I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it plenty of times again: DON'T GIVE LOOT AS AN EVENT REWARD IF ONLY A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE GET IT. ALL GET IT OR NONE GET IT. Don't understand why Sony is doing this, when Monolith avoided this...

Wow a lot of scumbags that 1 star for no reason. Base your ranking on the post quality, not whether or not you agree with it. I think this is a good topic even though I wasn't part of the event, nor did I agree with the design of it. Sorry...

While there is a problem with overpopulating, and while I personally had more enjoyment with the Regression instance, I really don't think what you're suggesting is practical or possible. I think what should have been done is since Method...

Monolith understood well, why can't Sony? Monolith got this problem and had it solved before go live. Why is Sony recreating problems that were already solved? Monolith understood that giving an item for an event reward completely negates...

The purpose of this write up is to go over the MxO economy and crafting systems, before the latest patch (34). The intended audience is the MxO developers and producers and as such may not be of interest to the community. If you have no de...

Oh and in case anyone cares or is interested, I'm currently working on a "core dump" of my experiences and observations on coding, the economy and marketplace in general. Target audience is the devs and final length appears to be 5-10 page...

No, how I've been getting bits is by crafting items then decompiling them. There's an inherint balance in this in that it takes time to decompile every item. So if you craft and compile an item, you spend info per craft, per compile, then...
