I can't, hard drive crashed, using my girlfriend's crap computer for the indefinite future.

Unless someone wants to donate me a hard drive. They're only like $50!

If I had the spare money, I just spend my current cash on some gundam models to use as reference.

*edit* I can ask around but no promises *end edit*

Go to anandtech's for sale/for trade forum and buy yourself a used hard drive. I just picked up a m/b, cpu, memory, and 40gig hard drive for $35. Just wanted the old sdram memory but had to take the whole boat. People are dumping their old parts generally for cheap. Shouldn't be too hard to find what you need.

Dudes, AT THIS VERY MOMENT, THE INSIDE OF MY THROAT IS RED AND SWOLLEN, AND COVERED IN LITTLE WHITE PUSS-FILLED SORES.

Just thought I'd share.

Thanks for the shout-outs. I don't like internet transactions. They take too long, they're not secure enough for my tastes, and I like the instant satisfaction of making deal in person.

Spring FAQ
People have made clear their desire to donate to the project, and so far, we have been fairly reluctant about accepting donations. Our main concern? While we certainly hope to have something on the level of a commercial release in the near future, there is no guarantee that it will ever happen. Unforeseen events arise, and it would be most unfortunate if everyone who donated felt swindled because the project did not turn out as they had hoped.

We do not plan to be more or less productive solely based upon the quantity and frequency of donations received. The Spring project is here only because we view this as an enjoyable hobby.

^ good advice

It's like with presents. Hand out presents because you want to make someone happy rather than expect something in return.

Something tells me that rattle doesn't get much action from the ladies...

Do you?

As for news related to the mod:

We're going to push back b4a release yet again, but its totally worth it.
I'm not going to spoil the suprise, but here are two hints:

1) Any armor combat fans will be in for a rather large treat with the next release.

2) Towed guns will have working gunshields.

This is not an April Fools joke.

LOLOL APRIL'S FOOLS sorry for abusing your thread in advance

zoned armour using shields like dozers did?

NightfallGemini · Post by **NightfallGemini** » 04 Apr 2007, 13:01

The shield thing will make towed guns actually kinda useful :V

What about the quad 50 cal being an infantry slaughterhouse? Or the Nazi flak car being a rapid-fire siegemobile? :V

Working as intended, or are these bugs/slight oversights?

FLOZi · Post by **FLOZi** » 04 Apr 2007, 15:05

Historically flak could be used against ground targets, however, I still think that in game they should be restricted to AA use.

Also, towed guns and artillery in general should be far more effective next version.

4 50 cal mgs... how could they be anything but an infantry slaughterhouse?
