SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

In Response To: I wanna get THRUDed (Grasshopper)

: Back in the day, I only knew one Marathoner, so I never
: had much opportunities for net play other than one on
: ones. Consequently, I used the RocketBobs patch on
: several net maps for fun and practice, sometimes
: playing around with Anvil to tweak physics, weapon
: spawns, et al. THRUD, in low grav, with about ten
: Rocketbobs con aliens gave me HOURS of SPNKRing fun.

Thrud is a ton-o-fun and, with M:Rs removal of falling damage (yay) it's actually possible to bring back to life. There was a mapper (smeeisfootrot?) that had taken a stab at it, but he had merged the entire map into a single piece (whoops) which made for some, uh, interesting issues.

If I ever finish the map Morpfhine I'll give it a go.

: Wolfchild, I'd love to contribute to the fine work you
: guys are doing, but me no hava Windows machine --
: unless it can be done via Virtual PC, and even then, I
: doubt my iB2 G3/500 could handle it.

I only have VPC 3.0 and it's SLOW and nearly impossible to use in UnrealEd (the mouse behaves quite 'drunkenly') but I hear that VPC 4.0 is "twice as fast" but no mention if the mouse is better behaved.

VPC 4.0 is being ported to Mac OS X, but I don't know if it's going to be even better still...
