  1. The Ragdoll physics in The Source engine are actually kind of pathetic. I mean, it's kind of cool to watch but it is very unrealistic. Other engines have done a better job with this. The problem with ragdoll physics is that the joints do not account for the limits of the human bone structure. Euphoria from Natural Motions does a pretty good job at it. I'd recommend you watch their video.
  2. See, now this is deceptive. That is not the first flying car, it is the first street legal car that can fly. There's another "Flying Car" That was made like 5 or 6 years ago, and it flies well. Check out this: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  3. Nah, Visual Basic is a bad first language. The Syntax is so much different from any other language that it can make it hard to learn other languages later. I'd recommend starting with Ruby or Python, since they have syntax similar to C/C++ but are easier to work with. I always feel that learning proper OOP first is most important.
  4. Are you people completely mad? The games are free only for you to play them. They make their money off of advertisements and cash shops. On private servers, they don't make their money. Bottomline line is that you have absolutely no right to do it. When you download and install the client, you agree to a license that says you will refrain from doing just that.
  5. There do exist Browser-Based FPS games, they use Shockwave. However, I am fairly certain that an easy way to make one does not exist.
  6. Well, if you ever get to doing higher detail stuff, look me up :DLike I said, we are past the proof of concept stage so we need some higher detail stuff.
  7. Yeah, sorry man but we need high quality stuff. We're beyond the simple testing phase now.
  8. Well, I suppose when it comes down to it, people are willing to pay them millions of dollars to play, so they will keep doing it. That's just the way the world works sometimes xD
  9. Well, I think the idea is that you can paint it to be whatever design you want on it. Also, using a high gloss paint probably wouldn't be as good as, say, painting it whatever you want with another paint and then adding a gloss to it. (As far as I am aware Gloss Paints don't work well if you are trying to paint a design)
  10. So I was looking at the similar topics piece for a thread I was on, and I noticed 2 things.The first thing may not be worth fixing, but it's not all that effective at determining what is related. For a thread about Circuit City, the top matched result was a thread about GTA Vice City. (Yeah, it matched the city which is kind of funny)The second thing should be able to be fixed pretty easily. That same GTA Vice City result I got was from 5 years ago! 0_0 I think it'd be nice if you just added filter to make it from, say, the past 90 days.
  11. Actually, not all Circuit Cities are closing. As a matter of fact, none are closing in Massachusetts. They are just closing them in certain places where, I believe, they had too many to begin with.
  12. Well, you've got to understand that this is in a completely different category of the job of a doctor or engineer. It's a lot easier to learn to become one of those things than it is to become an athlete. (Actually, for the most part you're born with it or you just don't have it, at the professional level)As for the increase in salaries, Daryl Strawberry was what? 10 years ago? The national average for gas then was like $1 Inflation always takes it's toll.Another point to be made is that people are willing to pay for the seats that pay for the players. Games at the professional level are regularly sold out, so why would they reduce the price?
  13. Heh, w3Schools Won't helpo in learning C/C++ unless they've changed since I last went there.Also OOP is not exactly the same for every language. There are going to be some little differences that you are going to have to learn for every language.
  14. lol, "Why would it be done" would be a completely different discussion XD (Oh, and if any of you jerks change my past I'll kick you in the face )As far as can it be done? I kind of doubt it. At this time, I think it's gonna stay in the sci-fi stories.
  15. Umm, actually it does not matter at all which one you learn first. They are completely different from one another, and learning one will not help you learn another. I would say learn PHP first, because if you want to make money on websites, PHP is where you'll probably make the most
