GAMERS LAIR

[silent_passenger]

Jack the Jackrabbit had this issue when the PC was too fast...and the game was already fast, pretty sure it ran ok on everything before quad core systems hit though.

Wing Commander I and II were insanely fast on my Pentium 200 MMX.

What really kills me is you can literally see the render almost exactly as you want it to come out...and then the program takes twelve hours to spit it out.

It's like in the old paintings. The painter could see how the portrait would look, but he still needed to spend days working on it before it was done.

Except the painting is done

If it makes you feel any better, I do it all the time myself...like when I made that rhythm concept yesterday, I spent more time mapping controller buttons to the keypresses (which I needed to do anyways) than actually doing it...only to realize I needed to set a single config variable and ren'py would let me grab them directly with simple screen language

But thats why I'm always testing theories and new ideas...to learn.

I could simply be decompiling other games to snag 80% of the things I needed code for (which i'm sure people are doing with my preferences lol)...but the difference between them doing that and me making them entirely from scratch is that i'm actually learning how it works, which lets me find better ways and more ideas.

If you don't ever try to learn things you'll never figure out anything new or be able to make it. I've never believed in using other peoples code unless it was meant as an example...and I still refuse to do it unless I fully understand how it works.

Thats why 3 months of my work makes years of other ren'py devs games look sad

Finally they started to understand that you can't hide the truth. The last few frames are better than the entire Disney trilogy combined.

I'm missing what you mean by the last few frames...the scene with the chick was badass though.

FYI: I've never seen the disney trilogy lol.

Maybe Jar Jar Binks as the Sith Lord?

 

[Zoliv]

Do me a favor and remove that tag would you?

I used it to send them a PM, I dont want to set off forum alerts on them for nothing.

Didn't notice it, removed.

I've got 10 keys for each of these games courtesy of Pax

Pressure - very funny delisted (*racing) game with collectible cards (10 keys for LAIR)

https://steamdb.info/sub/25882/

East India Company Gold - cool delisted game (10 keys for LAIR)

https://steamdb.info/sub/31134/

I'm giving them away by request, he didn't have any specifci rules, so one or both, first come first serve, I have to at least know your username from around to be eligable

Numbers will countdown with usernames under each game until they're gone or I decide nobody wants them.

Pressure ×9

Good morning (or night) WhatNitrous, I would like to try "Pressure", can I have a key?

Thanks to you & @ctpax001rus


Edit: Activation Successful!!!

I think that was the last generation of x86 models, had one myself. I've heard 586 said before but I've never seen it myself if it exists.

The 586 changed its name to Pentium=5 for legal reasons, in order to patent the name and not to be copied by pirates (AMD, Ciryx, etc).

686 = Pentium Pro & Pentium II

Wing Commander I and II were insanely fast on my Pentium 200 MMX.

I had 200MMX too, (225MHz OC, bus 75MHz) with an Virge325 (with overclock too, ), it's still sitting around in a box.
