I guess I'm the only idiot who thinks "Heat.net death" is funny. :lol:

Also, I'm down for a D2 revival, although the next couple of weekends might be bad for me. Anybody else willing to play D2x via tracker?

I also get a mysterious CTD with version 1.4.38. However, unlike spud, it occurs whenever I enter a mine, just after the message "Prepare to begin descent..." appears - whether I'm running full screen, windowed, or in any myriad of resolutions. In the meantime, I have reverted to 1.4.35, which works ...

Haha, I take it you put a texture with transparency on a cube side that wasn't a wall joined to an adjacent one? At least it doesn't give you that psychedelic texture repeating effect from the old versions... Unless you like that sorta thing, of course. PS: You got me pretty close to drooling with ...

I agree that the client-visibility issue is probably isolated to our case, alone. EDIT: Whoops, the headlight issue exists also in D2X 2.5/2.6. I have yet to try it out in original D2 I just experimented in another level. The problem only exhibits itself when casting the headlight in rooms of ...

I took some demos in the level Sirius is talking about to demonstrate the headlight issue, and rendered them to XviD *.avi files, using Hypercam. I had to do most of them low-res to get non-dizzyingly low framerates: clip2.avi (3.15MB) - This clip in a long hallway shows what the problem seems to be ...

I'll definitely play d2x w/tracker. Since switching to the new Kali tracker, Kali has been bugging me about NAT issues again, so I'd rather just avoid that whole headache and use diedel's excellent UDP gaming goodness.

Diedel, glad I could somehow be of some kind of help! 1.4.12 seems to work brilliantly... I just finished playing some coop with Outrider and zapp via UDP tracker. Gotta get used to F8 stopping my Pyro in its tracks, though! However, zapp and Outrider report issues with inverted controls when ...

Since upgrading to 1.4.9, I'm experiencing the same issue as Grendel, jehu, and Nosferatu... single taps of movement keys causes a drift in that direction, until I tap in the opposite direction. Pausing the game also seems to stop the drift.

What happened to either of the first two Saturdays (4th and 11th)? I guess they're no good for you, Sirius? Although it's damn near impossible for me to predict my schedule weeks (much less months) in advance, I'll go ahead and say that any Saturday is fine with me. Whatever happens, I'll make sure ...

I guess so, though there hasn't been much in the way of confirmation of that date in here.

So is it the 28th? Any weekend but this one would be good for me - and I'd really love to be there. :)

I think we're making progress here. People, when I say "tri-chording will be toggleable", I mean, "you can always move in all three directions at once, but with the default setting doing so doesn't give you a speed boost" Yes, I think that was generally how people understood it here... It certainly ...

To start, HeXetic, I want to thank you for your and your teammates' efforts in marrying my beloved game with bleeding edge technology. Doom 3 does seem a natural fit to fuel Descent gameplay. Now to the issue at hand... I do not quite feel the urgency that most do with regards to "correcting" what ...

I ran into Motoman the other day in a HALO game of all places. He was writing a descent novel years ago. As much as I enjoy an occasional game of Halo, I haven't played the game online, ever. But I can't blame a guy for wanting to use my name. ;) Mighty amount of nostalgia going on in this thread ...
