Re: OOC thread

I've had dreams that seemed pretty freaking real before but it's never carried over to when I'm awake. To be honest with you I would almost rather dream about Iraq than rats, the dream was that messed up.

Well in the books Beckett was sort of like Indiana Jones the Gangrel. I've never actually played Bloodlines despite having the game. Never been able to make it work on any computer I've tried, so I've had to live with simply reading about it.

Sometimes when I dream of Afghanistan there are rats involved. Or mice. Crawling, nibbling. But I usually don't have an issue with rats cause I got pet ones. They're adorable.

I could help with getting it working. PC whiz extraordinare. I had quite a bit of trouble with the game myself, and in fact, all source games for awhile. Oddly, while I found a fix, it's never been on the support pages, despite everyone I know having the same issue x.x

Random tip to begin with, copy everything in the bin directory of the game to the main game dir, and just see if it works then.

Re: OOC thread

I haven't actually had any dreams about Iraq in roughly a year and a half now and they never involved rats, thankfully. Of course the only thing rat-like I ever saw were the kangaroo rats, which are not scary in the least.

I'll have to try that after digging the game out, wherever I put it. It never really surprised me that the game didn't seem to work since I also have the other game by Troika. I think they're considered two of the buggiest games in existence.

Re: OOC thread

Well, they did go bankrupt right after release. There's some unofficial patches (up to 10.0 or something now) that add in like twice a games worth of content and fix most things. And, it was in fact the first source engine game, before even HL2 came out, so I'm willing to give them a bit of leeway x.x

Re: OOC thread

Not sure but this one seems kinda gangrel-ish. I love the skirt and the forest background.

Re: OOC thread

I agree. I love it. I think that should be my next vampire character.

 

[dmronny]

Yeah I give Troika plenty of leeway, since Bloodlines really sounds quite entertaining and I really enjoy their other game, Temple of Elemental Evil. ToEE has a lot of unofficial patches in the same vein as Bloodlines. Even with the bugs ToEE is still probably the most accurate representation of D&D I've seen in a computer game and one of my favorite games.

Ah ninjaed. Sure seems like a Gangrel, though that could just be the forest.

EDIT: Will post tommorrow, too tired to see straight. My eyes are actually burning from the dust. Though I did get home made pizza for helping my friend clean her house so I think it was worth it.

Re: OOC thread

Free pizza always is. And take yer time Ronny. Not like I've been the most speedy of posters here.

Re: OOC thread

No worries, ronny.

Re: OOC thread

In my tired state I took that to mean there was a desert in the house you were cleaning... yeah x.x

*Needs to wake up more*

Re: OOC thread

Well we were cleaning in the attic and there was enough dust to form a desert. Now I'll get to posting after sleeping most of the day and watching football the rest.

Re: OOC thread

It appears I cross posted with Ronny. Vezina's response would have come before the announcement by Aethulwulf, preferably as a direct response to Eliza.

Re: OOC thread

I was wondering how you posted so quickly after me. I could probably move my post with my nifty moderation powers but I'm too lazy and everyone will realize after they see this.

 

[BlueSlime]

Re: OOC thread

It's all right, I suppose it works as it is.

So do you expect that I might go back to talking in smaller circles or can we expect the gargoyle to be brought before everyone? (In the next post.)

 

[dmronny]

Re: OOC thread

Sorry, my power died shortly after that last post. I was going to wait and see if anyone wanted to move around or speak to anyone during the recess before bringing the gargoyle in. So if you want to speak with someone knock yourself out.

Re: OOC thread

So... this is awkward...

 

[Sinfulwolf]

Re: OOC thread

Poor Ranger. Blue why'd you ignore her?

 

[BlueSlime]

Re: OOC thread

Did Eliza say something to Vezina? I thought she had gone to talk to Genevieve last I checked the thread.

Re: OOC thread

heh, Eliza is the oldest player on the coterie in both age and generation, youngin.
