What's in a name?

That is mighty intriguing and something I never knew. It'll be worthy to note that Sykin's bluepill name is "David Smith." David being number six, and Smith being one... 6 + 1 is 7. A number I hold as having much power. Now for a small sec...

Horrible framerate despite my generally modern computer?

I've been at ill-ease for a long time now about my framerate in the Matrix Online. Any where in-game, while I run with moderate settings (Usually with High Detail, AA, and shadows at 1280x1024 but with no filters like Overbright and Green...

The Data Miner On Awakened Discussion Thread

I like it. Beats having Data Miner in with the Operative trees. Might inspire many people to get on with the Data Mining and the luggable craziness, which is something I want to do very soon.

Mx0 ·· The balance of "options.cfg" and "useropts.cfg"

Yes, I am not sure how the skybox thing is done (Separate entity is what I'm hoping). I don't need the rest of all of the options as I am very sure that would slow down my computer (Rendering all the buildings for miles and miles).
