    Icewind Dale 2 crashes randomly

    http://www.sorcerers.net/Games/IWD2/technical_faq.php#5 Patch it if you haven't already. I got the simular problem with IWD2, turns out, it doesn't support my video card. Fixed by tweaking perfomance settings in Control Panel - Display - Options - Diagnostics.

    Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 is....

    Yeah, that is exactly what I was thinking. I wonder if anybody still plays Raven Shield online.

    Inon Zur is Interviewed

    Internal interview haha. :shock: Original games certainly were a lot about visuals. FO probably is the only game for me, where graphics, animation and artistic direction played such an overwhelmingly important part in overall gaming experience. Visuals were definitely no less important then...

    An Alpha Centauri playthrough?

    Download and install SMAC XP Compatibility Update. If it still doesn't work, then go your installation directory, open the Alpha Centauri.ini file and change ForceOldVoxelAlgorithm=0 to ForceOldVoxelAlgorithm=1. If it still doesn't work, then, well, you could try tweaking msconfig and...

    An Alpha Centauri playthrough?

    I don't think I ever saw AI using amphibious troops en masse to take a coastal city. I always do this in multiplayer, since this strategy is almost impossible to defend against, because cruiser-based transports have significant amount of action points to stay outside the enemy sensor range...

    An Alpha Centauri playthrough?

    The first living thing to go through the device was a small white rat. I still have him, in fact. As you can see, the damage was not so great as they say. * Academician Prokhor Zakharov, "See How They Run" Zakharov is hardcore, Corazon can do his laundry. Also, the guy who did voice...

    An Alpha Centauri playthrough?

    I think Mikael is talking about doing an LP simular to this one. And yes, multiplayer is definitely possible, I played a few games with a friend some months ago via direct IP connection. It was stable and fun. If someone is having trouble running the game under XP, I think I had a guide...

    An Alpha Centauri playthrough?

    Please do. Huge map, transcendent difficulty, University faction. Installing Alien Crossfire is definitely a good idea, hovewer you should probably avoid using new factions, since they are full of shit. Alpha Centauri is such a great game, it could probably heal cancer or stop global...

    Elections in Russia

    I mean that American, European, British and generally western press seems to have surprisingly low standards regarding their Russian coverage. Actually, you are more likely to find some attempts to understand whats going in in Iranian newspaper. I stopped reading western press entirely few...

    Elections in Russia

    Well, I definitely did. Six years ago I was a citizen of a failed state without any hope for the future, except, maybe, an emigration. I spent most of my time thinking about how the hell could dodge the draft and I didn't really own anything. And I actually liked Tolstoy, imagine that. Over...

    Hired Guns: Another russian tactical game

    Yes, it was supposed to be JA3D, but Strategy Fist decided that GFI/Mistland are a bunch of retards and called off the licence. And that is a good thing. They released an English demo yesterday. http://www.gfi.su/files/demo/JAZZ_DEMO.exe (731 Mb) The translation is terrible.
