I have a question regarding terrain - With the random terrain generator that was fan-made, I'm expecting someone to do something similar for Fallen Enchantress. One of the issues they ran into was forced hills around mountains which prevented terrain from being made in the way they were hoping. Are you planning on changing how terrain generates in FE? - i.e. making mountains more of a heightmap/angle issue than a seperate terrain type? For example say your height map ranges from -

[quote who="charon2112" reply="10" id="2940046"] That's why it's called a double standard, duh. It's a numbers thing, male gamers on this site outnumber girls, maybe, 5000 to 1. and even worse is when guys pretend they don't care, because they think it gets them on her 'good side'... Every straight guy on here is wondering the same thing...at least I'm honest about it.  
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="31" id="2936012" The thing that holds this back isn't even budget. It's people. There was a talk at GDC by someone at Firaxis that went into this issue that finding Windows networking engineers who can make games is a holy grail issue now. They're just not out there anymore. Good MP code has become complex enough in the past few years that it requires a real specialist and those people are really hard to find and the MMOs have sucked up a lot of th
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="12" id="2920775"]1.19l was released less than 24 hours later to deal with the bug in question. It's available right now. Anyway, regarding the topic at hand... Thanks for your kind words. I think the post should be called faith in War of Magic, not Elemental since eventually there will be quite a few Elemental: Do *I* have faith in War of Magic's future? It really depends on v1.3 as that will really b
Some of you may have noticed I've not been so active on the forums. Some of you may even be glad for it. Here's my explanation: I bought Shogun 2 the day it came out and couldn't get enough of it. Then I made the mistake of trying out Minecraft. Paid the $20ish, and now I can't stop. Seriously. I need help. I'm halfway done building a wall around a medium sized island that will eventually be one giant castle. And I see blocks when I close my ey
I watched the first three seasons. Considering I've seen other British Shows (Red Dwarf, Black Adder, etc) this one is actually decent as far as the budget goes. It's about on par with the British version of the Robin Hood series, though I stopped watching that when they killed Marian in Jerusalem. It just went way too far off for me. The plotline is sort of there, and sort of not. It tries to have an overall plot and tries to have plots about character development and in
They already confirmed an RPG - There's no subtle hints about it except as to maybe the content. https://forums.elementalgame.com/404765 Roadmap states that it has just as much priority as Fallen Enchantress and patch 1.2, so I'm expecting news any time now.
You don't have to pay for Norton Ghost. Checkout Clonezilla. http://clonezilla.org/ Also, if it's still an HP factory model, you can get the hardware drivers from their support and downloads section. I have a netbook that I obtained for coding out of the office, and I just put all the drivers from HP's website onto a DVD so I have them safe. There's also Driverguide and ot

If it has the latest version of Flash but it's running Windows XP, perhaps that's the issue. What I've found on this so far is more for multi-core CPU's running Windows XP and Flash, and these are more for video issues and Youtube related complaints than Facebook games. One solution: "Launch browser (IE for Firefox Go to Task Manager Click on the browser process. Right click and Set Affinity Un-Check every CPU except for the
[quote who="tetleytea" reply="29" id="2909447"]Would you have a Batman screensaver, by any chance?[/quote] Of course. No projector based display system is complete without one.
Yes. Just toss Impulse on, and it'll work fine. I actually have Elemental on several machines, and just run them one at a time. That way I can mod on my laptop at work, even though I play on my desktop at home. So long as you're not running the same key simultaneously and it's on the same Impulse account you shouldn't have an issue.

Well, being a fantasy game, maybe you could swing it by having a special item "Girdle of Masculinity/Femininity" at the end of a quest chain.

[quote quoting="post"] I picked up Elemental:WoM recently. I liked Sins and was a HUGE fan of GalCiv2. I've played 4 sandbox games to get my feet wet (won 3 via diplomacy, master quest, and spell of making respectably) and am itching for more. Right now I have a game going where I'm playing as a custom Kingdom, medium map, every other "race" selected (Kingdoms on Normal, Empire on Challenging) and I'm holding my own (those Yithril make some pretty tough armor though).
I wish the Droid Atrix would have been Verizon. I've got one of the original Droids - It works good but I haven't rooted it yet so it still has the standard bloatware that bogs it down to only 30/100MB free after a few days of constant runtime.
Fable Three was so disappointing. They hyped it up like you could actually individually recruit people, and you would reign as king in an unscripted manner, not a linear story with a few choices and consequences. It was more disappointing than the ending of Fable II - Expecting a big boss battle at the end and instead you get an evil monologue that can be ended with the shoot button, and if you don't then the gun slinging pretty boy does it for you. After his speech about killing the ones you
Everywhere I look that system up it has 4+ star reviews, so it looks like a good winner for you! That will definitely cover the games you specified without issue, and it'll handle Starcraft II easily as well.
>.> Someone should make an Elemental Total War mod for one of the Total War games. But pick the one that crashes the most so it's closer to the real thing. ---- Joking aside, I purchased the game yesterday. Due to Steam being RETARDED I wasn't able to get much done before work. I barely got it installed and played ten minutes to see how it'd run on my machine. I didn't know Steam wouldn't let you choose a hard drive to install games to. So since my primar
