I have found printing out in Landscape will do the job from Internet explorer - you get a good layout on the page and don't have the print out over printing to another page. [ 02-12-2002, 03:31: Message edited by: Emmett.hendrick ]

Emmett.hendrick replied to Emmett.hendrick's topic in General Chatter
Thanks guys. I'm planning on doing a short movie to start the site with a bang but my PC at home lost its HDD so I lost all the files I was going to use so once I'm back up and running I'll get working on it again. -

Disabling Engines and Weapons
Emmett.hendrick replied to CommanderJohnson's topic in Battlecruiser 3000AD (Legacy)
I believe I remember SC talking about this before Afaik NPC ships damage is limited to 4 areas where as player ships have alot more damage areas I believe it was done to reduce the processing power required during larger battles.(Can you image the processing power required to track an monitor the damage to lets say 10 ships if they all had the same damage levels that pc ships have?) -
Thanks for the help guys but I got it sorted out after some more research. thanks for the help anyway.

Oh and while I'm at it to balance the insults somewhat Men Need To Know 1. The reason our bras don't always match our underwear is because WE actually CHANGE our underwear. 2. The next time you and your buddies joke about armed women in combat, take a poll to see which of you successfully aim at the toilet bowl. 3. If we're watching football with you, it's not bonding. We're watching because of the butts. 4. If the truth hurts, ask us those ego-sensitive questions on your payday. 5. Whenever possible, please try to say whatever you have to say after the movie. 6. Don't fret if you find out that the postman delivers more than once a day. 7. Please don't drive when you're not driving. 8. Lay off the beans several hours before bedtime. 9. Our bedtime headaches are inversely proportional to the number of baths that you take. 10. If you were really looking for an honest answer you wouldn't ask in bed. 11. The next time you joke about female drivers, research the number of accidents caused by rubbernecking at miniskirts. 12. If only women gossip, how do you and your buddies keep track of "who's easy?" 13. Stop telling us that most male strippers are gay: WE DON'T CARE! 14. Your contributions to your child should go above and beyond that chromosome you unselfishly sacrificed.

A Woman's Dictionary 1. "Fine" This is the word women use at the end of any argument when they feel they are right but can't stand to hear you argue any longer. It means that you should shut up. (NEVER use "fine" to describe how she looks. This will cause you to have one of those arguments.) 2. "Five minutes" This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your Football game is going to last before you take out the trash, so women feel that it's an even trade. 3. "Nothing" Nothing" means something and you should be on your toes. "Nothing" is usually used to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out, upside down, and backwards. "Nothing" usually signifies an argument that will last "Five Minutes" and end with the word "Fine." 4. "Go Ahead" (with raised eyebrows) This is NOT permission; it's a dare! If you mistake it for permission, the result will be the woman will get upset over "Nothing" and you'll have a "five-minute" discussion that will end with the word "Fine." 5. "Go Ahead" (normal eyebrows) This is NOT permission, either. It means "I give up" or "do what you want because I don't care." You will get a raised eyebrow "Go Ahead" in just a few minutes, followed by Nothing" and "Fine" and she will talk to you in about "Five Minutes" when she cools off. 6. "Loud Sigh" This is not actually a word, but is still often a verbal statement. Very frequently misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are a complete idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing!." 7. "Soft Sigh" Again, not a word, but a verbal statement. "Soft Sighs" are one of the few things that some men actually understand. It means she is momentarily content. Your best bet is to not move or breathe in the hope that the moment will last a bit longer. 8. "Oh" This word-followed by any statement - is trouble. Example; "Oh, let me get that". Or, "Oh, I talked to him about what you were doing last night." If she says "Oh" before a statement, run, do not walk, to the nearest exit. She will tell you that she is "Fine" when she is done tossing your clothes out the window, but do not expect her to talk to you for at least two days. ("Oh" as the lead to a sentence usually signifies that you are caught in a lie. Do not try to lie more to get out of it, or you will get a raised eyebrow. "Go ahead," sometimes followed by acts so unspeakable that I can't bring myself to write about them. 9. "That's Okay" This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can say to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding what the penalty will be for whatever you have done. "That's Okay" is often used with the word "Fine" and in conjunction with a raised eyebrow "Go Ahead." Once she has had time to plan it out, you are in for some mighty big trouble. 10. "Please Do" This is not a statement, it is an offer. The woman is giving you the Chance to come up with an excuse for what you have done. In other words, a chance to get yourself into even more trouble. If you handle this correctly, you shouldn't get a "That's Okay." 11. "Thanks" The woman is thanking you. Don't faint and don't look for hidden meanings. Just say "you're welcome." 12. "Thanks A Lot" "Thanks A Lot" is dramatically different from "Thanks." A woman will say "Thanks A Lot" when she is really ticked off at you. It is usually followed by the "Loud Sigh." This signifies that you have hurt her in some callous way. Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the "Loud Sigh," as she will only tell you "Nothing "

After all, the hand-arm syndrome that the doctors said this kid has is what jackhammer workers get after years and years of using the things.. Which makes using a vibrating controller for a few hours a day seem mild by comparison, to say the least. Maybe they should be testing him for acute caffine addiction instead. I agree how can 7 hours a day on a playstation add to being the same as years using a jackhammer or is somebody stretching the truth a bit here.

LOL. I remember those machines, in fact the first ever upgrade I did was on a friends 386 pc we ripped out the motherboard and replaced it with a 486DX4 100 which was top of the range for the time, the funniest part was we had to take a hacksaw at one of the drive bays to get the cpu fan to fit into the case. It worked though to the best of my knowledge his father still has the machine.(its has a whopping 20MB hard disk if I remember right ) My first ever computer was a Sinclair Spectrun 128K +2 (with the built in) god there were some good games on it. but the half an hour load times were a bit ridiculous.

Starship Troopers (book) combat Armour : Possible today?
Emmett.hendrick replied to a topic in The Arts
quote:Originally posted by Tac: What I can see is today's regular grunts with this armour (boosted or not, the boosted would only allow them to run faster or carry more gear..at greater expense. Perhaps the Rangers or SEALS would get boosted units) being a serious threat to anything except cannon-armed foes (vehicles, tanks, fixed positions). The only possible problem I can see is that the slower units would be an easier target for Cannon-armed foes(eg above) so while the suit would be good for infantry cut downs against harder armour/tanks they could actually be a hinderance. But I don't know Warhammer use dreadnoughts which are alot bigger than being discussed here but they are effective against infantry and hardened targets. -
LOL I see he's already "got" 4 bids I'll go in on the Sydney trip for Shirley though

Small issue re-entering my CC
Emmett.hendrick replied to Hudson's topic in Battlecruiser 3000AD (Legacy)
quote:Originally posted by Gordon: Oh yea, and if that doesn't work you can always try sticking out your thumb and hope a passing ship picks you up. Or alternatively get back into your shuttle and tow your CC to the nearest starbase! Either is good with me though -
quote:Originally posted by Grayfox: whatever happened to doing stuff the honest way??? I agree it may have taken me a bit longer than most here but I have two careers on the go at the moment (nightstar and Questar) both are almost fully upgraded (and some artifacts too) but money for both was done by trading(slow) and drones(bit quicker). Now I'm planning a deep strike into Gammulan space with a few OTS missiles and a song in my heart(may take some screenies during the trip)

Nice Upgrade SC.... And congrats on your collar, after spending some time as an administrator of a IIS server I can only imagine the kind of administration headaches trying to pin down people like him can cause.
