Re: Heresy - My Deus Ex Review

in Milliways
I'm not going to convince you of anything but what the hell. I might surprise you. I'm pretty open-minded. It's hard to remember what I thought when I played it the first time but since I loved SS2, Thief 1 and Thief 2 then it's not hard to see why I loved Deus Ex. I also have all three of those …

Re: Heresy - My Deus Ex Review

I think you're right about the nostalgia factor. I remember that X-Files was a huge hit back then at the same time that Deus Ex came out. Much of the plot in Deus Ex felt like X-Files stories. It would have been nicer to have Scully as my partner, though. Anna Navarre was a biatch!

Re: best windows 98 agp card

What RAMsinks did you use for your Ti 4600? Whatever I happen to have handy. Many models of GF4 Ti4600 came with no RAMSinks at all, so I consider anything an improvement. For awhile, I had a bunch of these RAMsinks from the EverCool EC-VC-RF kits: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item= …

Heresy - My Deus Ex Review

in Milliways
(I played as a stealthy pacifist. Anna and Gunther were my only human victims.) After 10 long months, I have finally completed the original Deus Ex; all three endings. Is it the best game in the world? No. Is it in my top 10 games of all time? No. Is it a good game that's worth playing? Yes... but …

Re: Best and worst sound cards you have ever owned?

It depends on the era, I suppose. Best Sound Cards Late DOS SB16 with a wavetable (WaveBlaster / DreamBlaster / Etc) daughterboard. Win9x ISA AWE64 Value Cheap and has user-friendly connectors. Win9x PCI SB Live! CT 4670 Good SB16 emulation along with EAX support. WinXP Audigy 2 ZS All-around great …

Re: Did you get any gear for Christmas??

in Milliways
If that is a Graphite G3, then technically it's not an original "fruity" one- Those range from Bondi Blue to Oct 99 G3 IIRC. It is definitely not an original 1st generation iMac. Although graphite may not be a delicious fruit, it does indeed have a flavor. Not a good one, mind you, but it …

Re: Did you get any gear for Christmas??

in Milliways
I don't get anything for Christmas anymore... And this particular "holiday season" had nothing but turns for the worst for me this year. Sorry for being a downer, but I just had to get that out of my system. I'm with ya. I'm not a real big fan of the winter holidays either. It seems to me like it's …

Re: Testing Canopus 3D

Thanks! I look forward to your guide! I've found a few pinouts sheets and reports of various success or failure, but I've never found a detailed how-to guide for regular n00bs. This would be most helpful.

Re: Should I replace thermal paste on V5?

I remember being really nervous when I removed the heatsinks on my Voodoo 5 cards. Still, at the time, an AGP model was only about $55 on eBay. PCI models were going for about $75. There was still a risk in destroying my cards, but being able to afford a replacement wasn't too much of a concern. …

Re: Should I replace thermal paste on V5?

I replaced the heatsinks and fans on my two Voodoo 5 cards. When I did so, I used thermal epoxy. Yeah, I know, it's a sin. But, these cards are for my personal enjoyment and I never plan to sell them. To me, keeping them running as long as possible is my goal, so I used high quality thermal epoxy, …

Re: Testing Canopus 3D

Any chance you could post photos and/or video of the process of creating the cable? I've got a couple Canopus cards and live in fear of the day that the cables get broken or lost. Having a guide on how to create a replacement would be ultra nice! 😀
