Re: Your idea of the perfect game

in Milliways
The specifics would very likely depend on the genre, but, in general terms ( warning, very long post incoming ): i appreciated it, very good points rounding out what makes a game compelling to play and play again Duke Nukem 3D -- out of the famous 90s FPS titles, I'll pick this over Doom , simply …

Re: Your idea of the perfect game

in Milliways
I'd like to have a space combat game set in the Halo universe during the Covenant War. Something similar to that sequence that we got in Halo: Reach, but with its own single-player narrative. Make a team versus team multiplayer mode too, and it will likely be a great time!

Re: Bought this (Modern) hardware today

in Milliways
I'm a couple of weeks late, but a sale on a X670E motherboard got me to pull the trigger early on an upgrade from my trusty X470/5800X/32 GB DDR4-3200 setup to the following build: MSI X670E Gaming Plus motherboard AMD Ryzen 9900X Teamgroup T-FORCE Vulcan 32 GB DDR5-6000 (chose it because it was on …

Re: Tests needed on SB AWE32/64 and Live!

Thanks for the tips! I'll give it a try later this coming week; tomorrow looks to be extremely busy, but this should be easy enough to get a recording from. Thankfully since I change the settings back to no reverb/chorus after I am done recording, I don't need to worry about only applying the …

Re: Tests needed on SB AWE32/64 and Live!

I wasn't able to map the Reverb in the MIDI tab of the AudioHQ panel, but I was able to run with Chorus enabled on CC 93 and with it set to 100% in the Environmental Audio tab. The linked file is …

Re: Suicidal behaviour: Going into Windows 11

in Milliways
Windows 11 is such a clunker. How the heck will Win12 look/run at this point? At least with Win8, they tried to make it perform better. Whoah! Not sure how those clunky Win8 "universal apps" improved performance. And I still have PTDS from trying to work the Server 2012 GUI from a touch pad over …

Re: Did you create maps for games?

in Milliways
I made a mission or two for Descent: Freespace back in the day, and at one point I was even a (not very productive) mission reviewer for Freespace Watch's user mission archive. The missions I made were perfectly adequate, but not terribly interesting to play compared to some of the more creative …

Re: What modern activity did you get up to today?

in Milliways
Last night I spent the evening reviving my spouse's HP Probook 850 G8 from the dead. It would power on, the keyboard backlight would engage, and the fan would spin up about 15 seconds later, then just sit there doing nothing with no response to keyboard input and no output on the internal or …
