i was wondering if this were the intended function of the faqs section, or if a username is faqs, and somehow that section of the forum redirects there...just a question as it appears to be the default page for new sites when clicked...

pretty much any prog you use for 3d is going to be a bit confusing for the first-time user...i think when i first tried out maya, lightwave, 3ds max and such i was quite a bit thrown back by the vast number of functions, toolbars, and right click menus...usually the best way to start is to follow a few tutorials just to get yourself started... sometimes quickstarts help...obviously if it's free its not like you wasted any money buying something you don't understand... perhaps though if you want to dabble more professionally, i agree to try out maya or 3ds max, although i think even a temporary license for 3ds max is about $1000usd ...however, it's quite gratifying to be able to make your way through some of these programs, if you want to try out 3d modeling or animation, or even level design... however... there's quite a learning curve as you not only need to get the hang of keyframes, interpolation, 3d modeling, wrapping to a skeletal framework, not to mention physics and the like...my only tip would be not to expect much for a year or so... if it were that easy to create badass movies in 3d, we'd have plenty more to choose from... mostly, it's a lot of work... unless of course you have a team that can design models and terrains/levels... plus you usually want to design your own textures and so on...you might not go too wrong in getting one of those fat textbooks to hold while you get to know such a program, or at least printout a .pdf or help file...just remember, if it were that easy, it wouldn't be that revolutionary or interesting... take 2d platform games... now that they can be made by one person in about a week, they're not that impressive anymore...just a thought...

as opposed to previous releases of the kernel? or other kernels? or other operating systems?? lol

i hate realplayer because i could swear i just appears on my machines... probably comes bundled with a bunch of crap... but when there's enough free multimedia players, i too see very little use to it whatsoever... i like iTunes because i can fairly easily convert from .wav files to .mp3 and whatnot (as reason outputs in .wav and .ai only) but it's a slow loader... so i dont like using it... as wutske said: either way... i avoid wmp as well... and as such i dislike most file formats... and i'm coming to terms now with FLAC lossless...

i guess it depends what the options do... and/or what defaults are set...obviously there's meta-refresh and settimeout() but i'd think a little deeper explanation of the problem would be necessary...for the time being you could google those terms...

oh i thought that this was a thread about McDonalds...magic is a funny word, as it seems that any time something that appears "magic" is proven it's no longer magic...smoke and mirrors baby

It's a glass cleaning product, usually denoted by the color blue... for a wonderful streak-free shine...it's also a joke from a romantic comedy (not my genre, but it was on hbo)... "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" --the grandpa or someone pretty much uses windex consistently as a solution for everything... the biggest joke was that ol girl had a fat pimple on her face and ftfo... somehow i guess she gets over it, but then her new husband says after the wedding that he had a giant pimple... and when she asked how he took care of it? "windex"...i guess it makes sense if you've actually seen the movie only... but it is a funny concept that windex can do anything...on a side note, i once disbanded a line of ants decending upon my apartment stoop by windexing their trail back to the hole in the ground from where they came... I guess it erased their scent, because they didn't come back...

i know this isn't nearly a recommended method, but you could always use a prog like acid pro or ableton live and just set them end to end... surely an actual splicing would be preferable, but at least you could beatmatch and/or overlap them somewhat easily lol...

"windex" lol

adding the "/prefetch:#" to your command line just changes the hash number passed to your application... according to the literature, winXP already prefetches anyhow, so this would have no significant gain in performance unless you ran firefox with differing plugins... in other words, your firefox.exe is already being prefetched. if you specify a different number, it is merely going to a different file, and probably just taking up space in your prefetch cache...

haha, only 5 years late, but i finally counted myself : )eww: 462144 that kindof sucks... i'd rather be like 1000 or something lol

openSUSE 11 + kde4 = orgasm

what about tasklist.exe and taskkill.exe from another cpu?does hiding a process from taskman also hide from these apps?btw... why not just a random third party task id/killer?
