Cutmeister, considering that you live nearby and that your employer utilizes websense, I have to wonder if we don't work for the same company :D I just tried accessing LF from home using IE and it works fine, so it must be something with my machine...  [Read More]

One day the layout had changed (looked pretty cool...space between threads, snazzy new borders, etc), the next the borders were still there, but the spaces were gone. Then the buttons were missing (Go to first unread post, etc). Then the banners and...  [Read More]

Hey, Were there some changes made recently? For about the last week, LF looks like this (http://img341.imageshack.us/my.php?image=untitled9qz.jpg) at work (IE 6.0.2900, SP2). Everything looks normal at home (running Firefox), so it's either somethi...  [Read More]

Also, make sure you adjust the numbers in the proper direction. Higher numbers mean slower animation, lower means faster. AH HA! Thanks for the update. I'll give that a try :D EDIT: Perfect! The suggested settings look great....  [Read More]

You know, I had originally looked to appearance.2da for a solution. Thinking that column did something else entirely, I overlooked it. Thanks for the information. I'm sure it will be the catalyst for version 2.0 sometime today :D EDIT: Whoops, I mus...  [Read More]

On the other hand, delaying the release time only increases anticipation, and the number of people who hear about the game. It allows for more marketing to seep through.Apparently you missed all the references that I made to the psychotic feeding fre...  [Read More]

I personally think that the length of gameplay for both games was just about equal and just about right. What I would like to see for K3 would be a change up in how they present the areas. It seems too much like they try to give each planet equal pl...  [Read More]

I agree that it was probably a joke, but I'll be very surprised if we don't hear a legitimate x-mas 2006 release date for K3 at E3. 1) I believe that OE completed at least a portion of the story of K3 while developing K2. One of the possible causes...  [Read More]

Ok, separate issue: In 710KOR, 2 sith assassins were spawned, dual wielding lightsabers. k_fab_sith_si.nss was compliled with dual wield set to FALSE in conversion_config.nss, so I'm not sure what might be causing this. FWIW, saberratio is set to 8,...  [Read More]

Thanks for the kudos. I made the mod because I didn't care for the Knight/Master robe model, not because I didn't like the textures. Where possible I tried to use default textures because they looked good and it meant less work for me :D. It does sou...  [Read More]
