What, no other Tigers here? Rawr.

A sort of before/after comparison: Live Dev server with the material fixes:

Current version of update note for this (going to target update 66, but it'll probably take a lot of testing, so we'll see): Fixed texture rendering problems visible while running the game under Windows Vista. The fixes will be mostly tran...

I don't think I'd seen the ones by JetBlack and odj before. I like all of the entries in this week's update.

Ew. Okay, it looks like the "flows like water" thing will happen when there's a player character in your view with Firewall+gloves, no NPCs visible, and shadows off (or while hyperjumping, where you can't see your shadow). It gets worse wh...

Aye.

For the most part the changes should be literally transparent for XP users. The construct samurai ("Warrior") NPCs disappearing past 60 yards is the most overt change you should see, and I'm not too happy about having to resort to that. Ot...

Going through and trying to check that my mass changes to the NPC models fixed all the Vista stuff. Still running into a few stray things here and there. For instance, the construct samurai chicks caused some trouble with their unique mode...

Couldn't hurt. You also didn't mention what gender/body size your RSI is.

"Brown Star" was the nickname the level designers had for one of their number whose last name was "Brown."

There was a network outage this morning that affected various things across SOE servers. It's supposed to be mostly sorted out now. /crossfingers

Sugoi! Also, cool music. (What's it from?)

Updated.

No, I was kicking myself yesterday for not picking up any in my trudge over eight blocks of ice to the grocery store. Heh, Star, your version is 10 seconds shorter because you used the second version of scene 0 that I made for you, where I...

Hey, there's another one now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UG0tI0-d24Q This one does have bars at top and bottom. If you load them simultaneously in separate windows you can switch back and forth and watch it stretch, whee!

We should just make /stuck a shortcut for /suicide.

Nice-looking rumble you had there.

I'm a fire truck...and I'm here to put you out.

Hey, Vanguard actually *is* in there. Silly me. Ooh! I know! Pirates of the Burning Sea!

Neat picture. I seem to have located a captioned version somehow!

HmMmMmmm... Vanguard? Planetside? Wait...wait...I'll get it eventually...

Still showing up just fine as far as I can see.

Hm, in that case it probably didn't use letterboxing to do it (that would typically have added bars at both top and bottom). Could be slightly stretched vertically.

Oooh. *wishes he could script them to say "GF" afterwards*

The music switch when [spoiler woman] came in made me ^jump^! Neat that it fits so well in YouTube's new widescreen format. Did you have to crop it at all, or maybe heighten the black bar at the bottom a tad? I couldn't see obvious croppin...

Heeheehee dang, someone got it already. =P EDIT: Oh, although seeing it just reminded me that there's a question of who it is exactly, since there are two people who look like that, but only one who uses /mood regal. :o

Alas, my erratic drawing style and animated presentation has created confusion. Plus I just don't seem to be able to draw that particular character's head correctly from a low angle. But aside from the context (scene that just happened pre...

Hrrr...

Well, *sort* of in a way more like this maybe

Oh them wacky animators. ^ ~~~~~ Here's an example of the ugly way I sometimes go about laying out a scene--quick blobbos to get the scale, perspective, and poses figured out before I start trying to draw them in a more detailed way.

I meant both of those things, actually. As a lefty, I've noticed that when handedness matters with an item, and there's only one version of the item, the item has usually been designed for the right hand. Which is the correct decision I gu...
