Spring RTS Engine

I am SO not a geek. Now leave me be while I have a Star Wars marathon with all 6 Episodes.

Can i join too?

Cheap rechargeable CR123 batteries!

However, anything that isn't a pet favorite the masses attack as though it was going to destroy spring it's self.

This never happens, you're just imagining it. Serious. You've got a persecution complex, and AF's got a bad GF8800 if in fact he has one at all, which I DOUBT.

persecution complex my ass. you being one of the douchebags that attacks me whenever you have the chance and was banned for it. You never made any apology either. So frankly, no caydr, you are one of the people trolling me. I have dropped it but how about you get off of your imaginary high horse because you of all people have no right to say that to me after your last bit of harassment. Harassment that was frankly uncalled for and unprovoked.

wow there must be a heck fo a lot fo people with bad 8800 cards.

Afterall how come the problem I had has changed in occurence and regularity everytime new drivers have been updated and always with an improvement? And what about the thousands of other 8800 cards with the same issues?

And no it isnt a magic card hickup, its even detailed in microsoft knowledge base articles and dicussed at length on the nvidia forums.

So lets say nvidia release the geforce 9! a gpu that makes a radical shift in design from all gfx cards that coem before, ti while implementing Directx 11! A brand new API designed from scratch that is fundamentally different, at the same time as Windows 7.0 is released! An operating system written from the ground up with a lot of driver model changes.

So this DX11 windows 7.0 GF9 needs drivers, and the driver devs fidn out that they have to write 6 compelte drivers, and each driver is 20 million lines of code+.

So somewhere out there a caydr buys a GF9 and starts using windows Vista (6.0) with it. He's lucky enough not to notice any problems.

Meanwhile thousands of other users are complaining their gf8 and 9 cards give errors under windows 7.0, however they must have gotten their drivers right the very first time, afterall they do releases 120 million lines of bugless code the first time round, they must have hardware issues.

I dont care if the vast majority of people who use that card have those issues and that card is plugged into my system or that I know people who have those issues and that card, they must be lieing. Afterall I can just forget all those screenshots of detailed nvidia system and driver specifications they posted.

Afterall this couldnt possibly be my graphics card box, oh wait thats my carpet!




OH NOES ITS THE NVIDIA CASCADES DIRECTX 10 DEMO!!!





And yes it ran without crashing! And Supcom doesnt crash either! But they're dirext 10 and 9 respectively, spring is openGL and as such gets a lower priority, and spring does suffer driver crashes, thats the whole point of the Vista TDR setup, and TDR related crashes are what I get, and what thousands of other users get, entire forums of users, users filing legal proceedings, nvidia developers working on their drivers even.

Life's much easier if you think that everyone loves you, but have really wierd ways of showing it

That needs a t-shirt, or something. Edited, for grammar.

<vaguely returns to the topic... er... what is the topic? Something about games, spine, Caydr, listening to whiney babies who want X feature in Y game, because they looked up Z historical stuff on Wikipedia? I'm confused here, this was a mess of a thread to start with, and it's gotten worse as the collective dada atmosphere has settled over it>

...oh, yeah! To cure these problems, Smoth, maybe we should build a game that restores spine. We can put boobies in it, so that it will be downloaded. We can always blame PicassoCT.

<ducks and runs>

Boobies? That is one of z's joke units!

Nvidia is on its way down, face it.

ATI + AMD FOR LIFE!

meh not really, I've used ati forever but now I'm getting a new pc I've found theres no serious cards ati can offer.

I hope you are joking.

AMD all the way, but ATI?... ew.

ROFLOP you're running vista and you're blaming your hardware for everything sucking copious amounts of ass, that's hilarious.

And seriously those are some cheap cr123 batteries, and they're RECHARGEABLE! Do you know how much you pay for one-off non-rechargeable cr123s in a store?! HOLY COW MAN!

I've gotta settle this, because every now and then someone mentions it: Was I seriously banned? I've gotta say that's some convenient "banning", since I was sick in bed for two weeks after getting my wisdom teeth removed. Had to use my vacation time for it. Some sucky ass vacation that was... maybe I just wasn't here for a couple weeks and someone assumed I was banned and it snowballed from there? Good timing for it if it really did happen though I guess...

Smoth, I just get giggly when I read this poetic stuff you write about how everyone hates you or your artistic vision or doesn't play right. Like, look at this thread. What a lot of nonsense. Your ranting makes everyone just feel more negative about you. You talk and talk and talk, but your attitude acts as a barrier to anyone caring about what you have to say.

You say AA's the reason nobody plays Gundam, you go on 6-month temper tantrums and refuse to post here as if anyone will not just see this as childish, you make threads like this constantly, you say you're the only one that "understands" gundam, you flip out when nobody plays it, you have a high-minded attitude, you speak as if you're writing a presidential nomination speech, you retaliate to perceived affronts that never took place, you make up things and use them as ammunition against your detractors, you invade threads just for the sake of attacking someone, you write lectures like some college kid that thinks they're going to change the world... It rubs me the wrong way and I just can't take you seriously anymore. Nobody can take you seriously when you act this way. When I bug you, it's just for fun. You overreact to so much of what people say, that I've seen people on many occasions just say things to make you blow up on the subject. More than once, I've recieved an MSN like, "rofl watch this, I've got a good one".

An example would be.... a long time ago, probably before I had to stop participating here because of my job, I remember a thread where a guy asked a question about such-and-such. I knew exactly what he meant and I said, "Look in the AA file for such-and-such, it's a good example of how to do this". Take it or leave it, you know? You popped in and said, "Holy cow, here goes caydr promoting himself again, I'd never do that with Gundam!" ... what the heck? And I'd have no trouble coming up with examples for everything else I just said.

You're too excitable, too idealistic, too certain of yourself, and too concerned with others' feelings and actions towards you, and it's destroyed your credibility. If you want this so-called fued to end, take that seriously, don't just write it off as if I'm making fun of you. This isn't a flame, and though I doubt you'll take me seriously since you think I'm your personal tormentor, there it is.

Bah, this'll just get deleted... maybe you'll read it before then. Note to overzealous mods: there was no swearing, no personal attacks, no hugetext, nothing illegal, no flame, no porn, nothing potentially offensive.

They merged

vista, like apple, is a byword for noob

I know... still no reason for me to buy an ATI card. I dislike ATI since the Rage 3D and this is gonna stay that way unless they can come up with something really good. As far as DX10 cards go ATI is a no go, IMO.

yes, it was after you pulled several days of bullshit culminating in a thread insulting panda and I, then you took off for surgery

Dude, what the hell kind of dentist do you have!?!?! I had mine removed and it wasn't requiring bed rest! Are you a bit slow to heal after surgery or did they cut you open or something?

caydr, I think that is just your perception. Sure some of my stuff on this forum is meant to be humorus or even tongue in cheek but for the most part many people here have little issue working with me or talking with me. Maybe in the past I was more abrassive and perhaps you remember that side of me but YOU have not been around enough to see the change in both my behavior and the general community attitude.

Caydr wrote:You say AA's the reason nobody plays Gundam

Never once said that. Produce a quote with link.

Caydr wrote:you go on 6-month temper tantrums

extreme exageration

Caydr wrote:make threads like this constantly

prove that. This is my first rant post in near a year.

Caydr wrote:you say you're the only one that "understands" gundam, you flip out when nobody plays it

Really? Funny I seem to recall my attitude is that I don't like players and constantly bitch about the player base and their "gimme gimme" leach attitude.

Caydr wrote:you have a high-minded attitude, you speak as if you're writing a presidential nomination speech

Do I need to use smaller words for you?

Caydr wrote: you retaliate to perceived affronts that never took place, you make up things and use them as ammunition against your detractors, you invade threads just for the sake of attacking someon

proof?

Caydr wrote:you write lectures like some college kid that thinks they're going to change the world... It rubs me the wrong way and I just can't take you seriously anymore.

YOU never did.

Caydr wrote:Nobody can take you seriously when you act this way.

Oh yeah, I can agrea with that, if I did threads like this frequently. However, you seem to focus on only these sort of threads.

Caydr wrote:When I bug you, it's just for fun.

It is one sided fun. I do not treat you thusly and frankly Tried to speak with some respect to you. I have my disagreaments with you and yes, I do not like what I have seen of you online. However, why make open sparks near what you know is gasoline?

Caydr wrote: You overreact to so much of what people say, that I've seen people on many occasions just say things to make you blow up on the subject.

Sometimes I do, and I do admit it.

find the link... even though it probably happened 2 years ago.. maybe IF I did that I will apologize. However, I want a link first.

Caydr, I have more credibility now then I have ever had. I can understand if you are saying you have lost respect for me but frankly you have to realize I have changed and I am percieved differently now.

I take everything seriously unless I am in a joking mood.

Seconded, I want this conversation to continue as I see it as a healthy thing. It is civil and I intend to continue that way. So please do not delete it. I want to read caydr's response.

You're too excitable, too idealistic, too certain of yourself

I'D TAKE THESE AS COMPLIMENTS.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS BEING TOO CERTAIN OF YOURSELF.

Bah... This is...

I won't even comment. I can't quite find the word.

I don't blame smoth for being pissed that people are talking shit but won't tell it to the dev himself, that's being a pussy...

you say you're the only one that "understands" gundam, you flip out when nobody plays it

I REALLY DO THINK SMOTH IS ONE OF THE VERY FEW IN SPRING COMMUNITY WHO UNDERSTANDS GUNDAM, JUST LIKE COWS ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO UNDERSTAND BALANCED ANNIHILATION(OK, MAYBE THERE ARE SOME OTHER INDIVIDUALS TOO), AND WE FLIP OUT WHEN PEOPLE MAKE RETARDED CRITIQUE AT IT.

LUCKILY FOR BOTH THE COWS AND SMOTH, WE ARE THE MODMAKERS;

THAT MEANS WE MAKE THE RULES AND DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THE OTHERS THINK.

WHY IS THIS SO?

BECAUSE WE BOTH KNOW WE ARE RIGHT AND THEY ARE WRONG
