Is it wrong to make advertisers pay for ads not viewed?
BTGBullseye replied to Dordo's topic in Serious Topic Discussion
Sounds like this is really a topic for the Serious Topic forum... I personally wouldn't care. I loathe the intrusiveness of modern advertising, and if the advertisers paying for unseen advertising will get rid of some of the intrusions, (or not, just so long as I don't have to pay for it) I'm for it. -
This to a letter. 115 pounds at 24 and I can order the biggest, most calorie stuffed item on a menu and find out I lost weight the next day. It's been a joke amongst my friends that the more I eat the more of a workout I'm getting. Most people call it a blessing but I'd rather not do with the crippling blood-sugar crashes I get 3-4 times a day that leave me nearly useless until I eat. You two both need to come to my house for a few weeks... I guarantee at least 5 extra pounds per week.

If you don't feel like dealing with DOSBox, (I find a lot of their setup and instructions to be very confusing) you can just install Windows 98/98se in a VirtualBox virtual machine. It would allow you to play virtually anything designed for 98 or earlier versions of Windows.

I made it visible enough for everyone to see it, and emphasized it... How would doing that in text cause me an aneurysm? I've been playing every bethesda game since Morrowind, and Skyrim was the first to not give ME any problems without mods. I never said anything else, or implied anything else. Only if they had a hardware/software setup that would generate those problems... Bethesda just can't afford to build 30,000 of the most popular combinations of systems and test their games on them, and even if they could, it still wouldn't prevent bugs in the other 30,000,000 system combinations the game would be played on. You seem to be harboring a lot of hatred towards Bethesda... It may help you in the long run to let go of that anger.

I can think of nothing besides what you currently have listed... Hope it doesn't take much to fix/update everything else.

Strangely, it says the content is not available in my country... Content not available in midwestern USA?

Hi-rez released all of the tribes and earthsiege games
BTGBullseye replied to Goggles2114's topic in Gaming in general
Well, it's a really simple setup... Once you get those two things, go ahead and install VirtualBox. Once that is installed, you need to make a new virtual environment. It'll ask you for a name for the environment, the type of OS, and the actual OS you intend to install. Make whatever name you want, choose Microsoft Windows, and Windows 98. When you click 'next' it'll ask you how much RAM to give your virtual machine. Do either 256MB or 512MB, but don't go higher than 1158MB or Windows 98 will have issues booting. (this permanently allocates your system RAM in that amount to the VM whenever the VM is running, so make sure you have enough for your base OS to do everything it needs to) Next, it asks you if you want to create a virtual hard drive, use the default "Create a virtual hard drive now" option. Use the default hard drive type. (VDI) Next you get to decide if you want the drive to be a fixed size, or to expand dynamically as you use more space... I recommend you do a fixed size, and allocate no more than 60GB to it. This will create a file on your drive of your chosen size, and it will store everything about your virtual system. From here, you simply start the VM, choose the Windows 98 install disc image in the VirtualBox menu, and restart the VM. Treat the VM as you would a normal computer system, because it will react like one. Of course there are more detailed settings that would need to be set for games that require better graphics capabilities, so if you need a walkthrough for those settings, PM me. -

Make games that are actually worth $60? +1

ROSS'S GAME DUNGEON: UNCANNY VALLEY
BTGBullseye replied to Ross Scott's topic in Ross's Game Dungeon
Ah... The "Robert's" mods... I have Realistic Ragdolls and Force! But I afraid that using HDT would slow my computer down to a crawl. I'm playing on a low-end gaming laptop from 3 years ago, and getting 0 performance impact from them. I think you'll do just fine. Maybe. -

Harder to do a back and forth conversation if you have problems. -

Oil and its future implications
BTGBullseye replied to Princess Luna's topic in Civilization Problems
Except I am educated on the subject, and had A WORKING MODEL... I would think someone far enough along to have a functioning prototype should get the grants before someone who doesn't even think it's possible to do. -
If it's a Ti, get it! That's a steal! The Ti is on-par with an overclocked 970, and doesn't have any memory issues. http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

General American Politics Thread
BTGBullseye replied to ThePest179's topic in Serious Topic Discussion
I'd vote for the Pirate Party, if they were doing anything... It's unfortunate that they just don't have any presence in my state. -
Damn, another person stretching the screen.... PUT IMAGES WIDER THAN 800px INSIDE SPOILER TAGS!!! Actually, unmodded skyrim has given me no significant bugs apart from the death by 'giants launching you into space', and New Vegas wasn't made by Bethesda. As for the bugs that are known, they are statistically very rare. The Fallout/Elder Scrolls games usually have less bugs and are far more stable than the average AAA games of the past 15 years. (and yet have about 100-1000x the content) Also, Bethesda has always been totally awesome about patching bugs promptly. (at least ones that can be patched)

I usually do cultural wins in Civilization as well... Problem is I keep getting AIs that don't like my culture grabbing their cities from them, so they go to war with me. (usually a mistake when they tend to still be making sailboats while I'm stockpiling nukes) Has anyone else noticed just how stupid the nuke system is in Civilization? IRL, a tactical nuke will take something equivalent to a level 21 city down to a level 2 or 3, and slowly reduce that number over a few weeks/months, and a real ICBM nuke will completely remove the city from the map. The game only chops the population of the city in half, and takes like a half dozen to eliminate the city completely after reaching level 1.

DOS is a 16-bit OS. 7.22 isn't really the classic DOS, but a modification to make it 32-bit for Windows integration. Try installing MSDOS 3.0 on that processor. Though later 32-bit processors can run 16-bit programs and OSes, it isn't really natively running it, just as 32-bit programs aren't really running natively on 64-bit Windows. (it's very close to no-performance-impact virtualization)

Interesting... This reminds me of the difference between Australians and Americans... Australians were criminals who didn't like following the rules, but never rebelled against the government, and eventually became very similar to the English culturally. English Americans were typically minor nobles, never committed a crime in their life, but defeated the strongest military of the time, and became a very different culture.

I personally would like to see an updated plugin myself... Get a widescreen format for the video sizes instead of the current (old) 4:3 ratio.

Now, if it had been a video contest, I would've recorded my skyrim glitches... The weird opening scene flubbercart issue, and when the guy gets beheaded just after choosing your character, his body twitches, and his severed head jumps straight up out of the catch basket 3 times. (occasionally leaving the basket) Or even one where General Tullius is vertically squished, walking with his body horizontal, and one where his 'floor' is 2 feet below everyone else's.

It's not just you, and it's not just Android 6... The plugin used by the forum is very old, as is evidenced by the lack of almost all functionality in it. (the full screen switch does nothing, etc.) Really need that updated. (and I think the issue has been mentioned many times before)
