Seems Sid's got a new gaming coming in the fall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtYWqE55s24 Can't tell anything at all about the game besides the theme from the trailer. Haven't looked into it more.
Thanks Gasper and Wizard, but unless I'm reading wrong, you're both saying two do the opposite of each other. Or maybe Gasper is talking about playing through a cd-rom drive, thus creating them as 'data', and Wizard is talking about playing the burned CD on things like car stereo systems, boom boxes, dvd players. By data do you mean I'd copy and paste the files to the burned CD instead of doing it through something like Zune/Windows Media Player? So the individ
[quote who="Iggore" reply="20" id="3458317"] I played this game only once, 4-5 years ago maybe. Isnt this game supported by a diehard community of fans pumping out patches and mods? As it improved significantly with time? Have you guys heard about the mythical World of Darkness MMORPG that might never come out? It makes my heart ache. [/quote] Yeah. I occasionally check out planet vampire and the news is always obfuscated(hah!) by the
[quote who="Hankers" reply="1" id="3458091"] I want to burn a CD of media files What kind of "media" files? As long as the files are standard media types: MP3, MP4, AVI etc. you should just burn the CD on your PC. The MAC will be able to read the files and play them.[/quote] Even from 8 years ago? I already tried a CD burned normally, but it did not play on their computer.
I'm not having much luck searching online for an answer. I want to burn a CD of media files for someone, but their only computer is a Mac. I don't think they know what the OS is, they're not very computer versed. The Mac is about 8 years old and I'm using a PC with Windows 7. Any help?
Has anyone noticed that on large maps farmers rarely finish farming their plot? I use the same strategies I have on normal maps which did not have this problem. Once I tried large maps, farmers just would not finish harvesting their worked plot. Regardless of distance. of houses, market, or barn.
[quote who="UmbralAngel" reply="65" id="3457021"] I have no idea why you have that error, but maybe it has something to do with IPv6 vs IPv4? If his forum software only works with IPv4 and has a cap of say 20 characters for the ip address, a 39 character IPv6 address would be 19 characters too long. If you are using windows, you can disable IPv6 and give that a try I suppose.[/quote] Yeah that's the problem. Other people are also unable to post due to that, at

Could someone do me a favor regarding the Banished forums? I am getting an error message whenever I try to post. I tried contacting the guy that made the game, but no response in a week. I assume he's swamped working on it alone. SO my favor is could you post my error message to the banished forums and link me so I can follow it?

Just d/l'd and in the process of installing. Won't be able to play until the evening though. Alas.
[quote who="Ashbery76" reply="7" id="3454271"] The unofficial patch is more like a mod and not the developers vision.[/quote] It was originally just fixing bugs and putting things in the developers had setup to put in. Now its going past that which is a bit disappointing, but whatever, the people who created the patch did a great job am hugely pleased they did. : )
Dunno about the screen, but did you download the user created patch?
[quote who="MarvinKosh" reply="54" id="3451667"] Oh yeah, I watched a bunch of Banished gameplay episodes by Sips the other day. I think it's kind of nice that after getting comments he re-configures the town a bit to improve things.[/quote] Where did you read that? I'm curious to see what he's changing.
Its not an attempt to do a version of Dune. This is a documentary about the original Dune movie concept, the one that didn't get made. Giger worked on it, but again it did not get made. I think he did work on David Lynch's version.
A documentary about a Dune that was never made: http://youtu.be/4WWu1kclNDA I don't have much to say about it, just thought some here might be interested in it.
[quote who="EvilMaxWar" reply="7" id="3450277"] MOBAs brings the worst out of gamers. But still, the Dota 2 numbers are quite... impressive. What else is impressive is that Banished, that little city building game made by a single dude is in the Steam top 25 [/quote] Yeah I saw that. While I am disappointed in the game, still enjoy it enough though, I am definitely glad its doing so well.
Jesus DotA 2...it can't just be ALL 12-17 yearolds playing that game. That means a lot of those foul mouthed, infantile players are adults. Which is not surprising, just more irritating.
[quote who="ElanaAhova" reply="15" id="3448978"] Quoting TheBirthdayParty, reply 14 I'd get it from Steam. It works on win 7 just fine. The user created patch is here, you really need it to fully enjoy the game: http://www.patches-scrolls.de/patch/4647 Thank you! How about the official patches? Does the unofficial include it? Already downloaded the patch VTMBup88 in anticipation of the game. [/quote]
I tried it a long time ago. I remember the random generator quite flawed and usually rolling well for one team.
I tried watching the first episode of Continuum and thought it was quite bad. Does the series improve? And not the way everyone says you should slog though Babylon 5 's first season to enjoy the rest. Or was it the first 3? Anyway, you get my point.
Two books come to mind. One I do not recommend, Shadow and Claw: The First Half of the Book of the Sun by Gene Wolf. The one I can sort of recommend is the Engineer Trilogy by KJ Parker. I wrote two reviews for them on Amazon so if its alright I'll copy and paste. I do not often write a review so keep that in mind when reading them. : ) Shadow and Claw review: I really liked the beginning of the book. The idea of the main character brought up as a torturer i
[quote who="GeomanNL" reply="11" id="3433419"] Maybe the Discworld series... there's this Rinsewind wizard who wins the day, but is always very miserable in the end. I like the books about him, he is a nice anti-hero. [/quote] I wouldn't call Rincewind an anti-hero, he's a very very very reluctant hero who just wants a nice quiet life without adventure and is always put in danger and in an adventure by 'chance.' Or Lady Chance. ;)</p
Shadow People. Horror flic using fake 'real' documentary style and dramatization of that. 2 out of five stars only because I finished it in 3 sittings. Its fairly bad. Also about 1/3 of the way through Russian Ark. A real documentary shot all in one take through a big russian museum(forget which). Amazing. There are historical fictional characters from each era experienced as the camera goes through the museum. The narrator is invisible. One person can see
