heh..it's not like it only works on nvidia and ATI cards cause the other cards are so great, the error "Failed to recognize hard TnL" means you don't have a hardware Transform and Lighting renderer... So, if your card doesn't have that it isn't good (for gaming)... nothing to do with ATI a...

Re: To boldly go where no anime has gone before!

I enjoyed Outlaw Star, but if your mother is older then about 25 (which she probably is) I'm guessing she won't. It's a pretty immature show and isn't *anything* like star trek. The recommendation for crest of stars and banner of stars is probably the best, I've only seen them in japanese so i have ...

Re: Anime Recommendation List

Hm, so most of what I'd mention has already been said. So I'll recommend a few others that I loved that haven't been mentioned, and then list the ones already mentioned that I also liked so you can get an idea if you like the same things I do. (after all, tastes differ) Hikaru No Go: It's ah..kind o...

I did have one question about subjobs. How does exp work when you have a subjob? Does the exp only go towards your main job is or split between the two? I'm really hoping it's the latter because the former would suck ass. The exp goes entirely into your mainjob, subjobs are there for support that's...

Re: FFXI Questions and Answer Thread.

Re: FFXI Questions and Answer Thread.

heh..well there're a lot of resources online for the subjob quest, but anyway. the easiest place to do the subjob quest is in Selbina, you weren't lied to.. if you walk along the dock as far to the right as you can go you'll find the person who gives the quest (i forget his name, i only talked to hi...

Psykofunk: You have to look at the bar *before* it tallies, after it tallies the bars all reset, far as i could see ranfaure was still under control of the beastmen at the time of tally...

Re: FFXI Questions and Answer Thread.

maybe i should have been more clear, i'm not having many problems making the UI work for me, my complaint is mainly that i have to go through various machinations AT ALL to make it work. seriously now, how hard can it be to make it react immediately when i press ctrl-1? hm? many other games manage t...

Re: FFXI Questions and Answer Thread.

The battling's pretty much identical to everquest, in fact, the entire game's so close to everquest i'm beginning to think they bought everquest's engine and then modified it for their purposes. a lot of the classes, etc. are very different, and the play style (weaponskills, skill chains, magic burs...
