Why would exiting a planet be hard? just fly to the altitude where the "O" next to your altitude starts blinking, (you are at egress altitude then), simply press Shift+9 and say "Y" to exit the planet.

All right , i hope one of em accepts Pay-pal, or I need to do this through a 3rd person that actually has a creditcard.

Yeah Prez, just come online on Teamspeak when you feel like it, and if we are available, we'll be there. I can't speak for everyone, but i'm always willing to train

1408 (~2 min 21 sec) is my record, it's quite annoying when he teleports around and then re-intergrates multiple times, then you have the think fast which one of em is going to jump after you Not to mention the all-coloured-ball, no escape from it

And it's not that you have to memorize anything before you take on command school, as i recall, most of my training I learned the hard way and i didn't really study that hard, just enough to know what Ben was talking about then during training sessions, but it did teach me a lot.

Well you can't compress something that's allready compressed, at times if you compress JPG files, the ZIP (or RAR) file can end up bigger then the file you wanted to zip

Ah well, less people will start using WinZip, more people will start using Winrar, Winace, 7-Zip, ect ect. I never did like Winzip anyway, Winrar can compress files a great deal better

Hmmmm 10 million gallons, that's uum 37.8 Million litres of water (Yikes!), Where does one put all that water?? Lets say she opened a lot of tabs in her house, and about 15 liters (~4 gallons) a minute flowed into the sink, it would take her about 4.7 years (give or take a few days) to waste all that water... If the water bill was accurate, she would have to somehow use 875 liters (~231 gallons) of water a minute (saying that a month is 30 days)...seems a bit impossible doesn't it Ever tried wasting 14.5 Liters (~3.83 gallons) of water a second? What were those guys thinking when they made that bill?....

Nope, everything seems to be in order, and welcome to the Defense wing [EDIT] Haha Zane, you beat me right to it

ROFL!!! HAHA! That's a good one

SC, Shadow, Jack Decker and me were on server 3 for a while, and we noticed some very strange things, First off all we tried towing, to see if the tow is broken, I tried this several times with Shadow, and we had the same results over and over, Shadow would turn on his SOS beacon, I would then tow him. I first of all heard "Tractor Beam Engaged" about 5 times, but that's not a big issue. Then i flew over to the station, and Shadow would dock while i still had my tow on. Then it got really annoying, I kept getting the Tractor Beam Disengaged, Tractor Beam Engaged, Tractor Beam Disengaged, Tractor Beam Engaged...over and over again, on what seemed like a endless loop, it also showed "CC AWAITING ORDERS" in the top of the screen all the time. As you can see here: http://members.home.nl/wubbema/temp/bug01.jpg I was able to move freely and do as i pleased though. Shadow on the other end, ones he undocked from the station, had even bigger problems. From his perspective I was moving all around him, jumping back and forth from right on top of him, to where i actually was then, which was several (up to thousands of) kilometers away, appearing that i still towed him, while there was no towing animation, and the HUD didn't indicate he was being towed, (When we switched later, and he towed me, we had the same results, and i've made several screenshots of him, shooting all around me, all were like this one: http://members.home.nl/wubbema/temp/bug02.jpg ) Still, he (Shadow as formely towed by me) could rotate his ship, but his engines were useless, he could not stop/increase/decrease his speed. And he did not get the abilty to move freely until I (as previously towing him) was destroyed. What was noticable was that to him, i really appreared in two locations, he even managed to turn and fire a few shots at me, damaging my shields, while I really was thousands of kilometers away. (When we switched roles, I even managed to destroy him like this, when he really was 921.000 kilometers away from me) NPC activity is also acting up, the most noticable is that ones you destroy a NPC ship, a new ship appears at the same location with the same Race/Caste/Shiptype, but dissapeared after about 3 or 4 seconds, and it really did register as a new ship, with full shields, who took damage from our PTA's before it dissapeared. And I noticed that planetary lines and tiles are fixed now, but in space it still looks like the game is running in Software Emulation Mode, looking all grainy. The best way to describe it is that Palladian Station in Procon from a few kilometers out looks like it's been put together from Lego blocks, from a distance, all ships and stations look all pixely like you're running UC in software emulation mode, but from up close they look normal again.

Team Spectre has accepted a match proposal for July 23th at 6 PM GMT I'll be there, but who else is going to be available for this match?

I'm in, if you want Shingen [EDIT] Oops sorry, now i'm repeating myself, too sleepy i guess....

Do you need a GalCom commander to help from time to time?

Ow right, i missed that... In which case please neglect the Gul Maroc vs Sypes challenge: Gul Maroc (Demolition) challenges Robert_Iceman (Alpha) to a duel at 1800 GMT on Saturday 9th of July or 1800 GMT on Saturday 16th of July cloaking permission to be decided by the challengee.

Gul Maroc (Demolition) challenges Sypes Shova (Alpha) to a duel at 1800 GMT on Saturday 9th of July or 1800 GMT on Saturday 16th of July cloaking permission to be decided by the challengee. ----------------------------- Marc Wubbema (Praetorian) challenges Courtney Cox (Spectre) to a duel at 1930 GMT on Saturday 9th of July or 1930 GMT on Saturday 16th of July ----------------------------- Marc Wubbema (Praetorian) challenges JSmith (Spectre) to a duel at 19:00 GMT on Sunday 10th of July (right after the match) Or 18:00 GMT on Sunday the 17th of July

Zane or Krasus, can one of you make it for the Demolition match this sunday? 2 players is enough for a match (although it'll be deathmatch then, but 3 players would be ideal) [ 07-05-2005, 07:53 AM: Message edited by: Marc Wubbema ]

I know the CTD was clientside and had nothing to do with the servers SC, I was kidding about the "server had a grudge on me" part, I had to blame someone/something for my failures yesterday Stuff like that happens, i'm allready refining my tactics for the great race, and if i get a chance, I'll try the race tomorrow, or someday in the coming week.

I just tried the great race...and would have finished it, if the servers didn't have a grudge on me today.... First attempt, all going great, until there was a ARMADA (40+) of hostile ships in Castrin when I came through the gate, made quick work of me... Second attempt (on server 2, to avoid NPC's, messed up big time, a shuttle that just left the planet, jumped to another region, disqualified. Third attempt: All going perfect again, on my way back to castrin, jumping to the jumpgate to Foron, went to TacOps to halt the last shuttle...held my cursor over the shuttle...no information showed up , and a second later, a CTD...NOOOOO!!!!!! It just wasn't to be....

It's working now, thanks

Perhaps mine doesn't work because UC was originally installed on the F: Drive (C was my 2nd hard drive, D and E were cd players) And now after removing the F: partition and recreating the partition, it became C: and my 2nd drive became D: So UC is now installed on the C: drive instead of the F: drive, which could make the ucmpkey.ini file incorrect. Edit: Or yes, it could have been my new video card.

I've just done a format on my computer because it became unstable (I had been messing with Nvidia drivers too much) and i bought a new video card, but now that i re-installed UC I am unable to verify my CD key, i keep getting the "UNABLE TO VERIFY YOUR KEY! PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER" message I've been trying for the last 3 days, with no success, could it be that the authentication server is down? I already tried copying the ucmpkey.ini file i saved before I did a format on my drive, but that didn't work.
