OK, so I was doing some research on my dad's SUV, and as it turned out, the name "Pajero" in Mitsubishi Pajero is Spanish for "wanker"! I laughed hard at that, although there are some more examples of unintentional innuendo in the auto scene: • Buick LaCrosse – French Canadian slang for masturbation • Chevrolet LUV – What a generation of US teens had in mind when buying one • Daihatsu Naked – Why? • Ford Pinto – Portugese slang for penis. Hopefully never prangs a Honda Fitta • Honda Fitta – Scandinavian slang for female genitalia • Isuzu Bighorn – A car name straight out of a 70s sitcom • Isuzu GIGA 20 Light Dump – Be grateful there’s no Heavy Dump • Mazda LaPuta – Spanish slang for prostitute • Mitsubishi Pajero – Spanish slang for wanker • Willys Jeep – Classic car, classic innuendo And some car model names that gave me a WTF feeling: • Mazda Carol • Mazda Mysterious Utility Wizard • Mazda Proceed Marvie Will Breeze • Mitsubishi Lettuce • Mitsubishi Mum 500 Shall We Join Us • Nissan Cedric • Suzuki Alto Afternoon Tea • Suzuki Every Joy Pop Turbo • Toyota Cist • Yamaha Pantryboy Supreme

[WIP|SA] The Hollywood Tower Hotel
Huckleberry Pie replied to Huckleberry Pie's topic in GTASA Modding
Sorry for my multi-post, but here's another progress shot: I found a seemingly suitable place for the hotel, near the All Saints General and a construction site: I still need to tear down the offending buildings, of course, and get the model fixed. The problem is that getting rid of the offending models (or at least moving them) seems to crash the game (it might have to do with binary IPLs or something). I'm still learning how to map, so excuse for being such a clumsy person. Editing the models to patch the holes in the ground might do, too, I guess. -
Talk in your own language here and in the languages you know.

The Most ANNOYING Ad Ive Ever Seen!
Huckleberry Pie replied to Highwire's topic in Suggestions / Help / Bug Reporting
OK, added. I did use your stylesheet, with a few modifications of course. This is to make sure that kids won't end up seeing BS while trying to browse safe. -

The Most ANNOYING Ad Ive Ever Seen!
Huckleberry Pie replied to Highwire's topic in Suggestions / Help / Bug Reporting
That's the beauty of Adblock, although some complain that they're losing revenue due to blacklisted ads. Yet, it does the job of getting rid of the really unwanted ones. lol, nice. Is there a way to put that in PHPBB3, so that users in my forum browsing on IE6 and earlier will be advised to upgrade? -
The Epic Photoshop help thread.
Huckleberry Pie replied to MrLlamaLlama's topic in Graphics & Writer's Pad
I suck at the pen, but yeah. As for your work, it is quite ace, although it'll be a chore if you decide to finish it. -
The Epic Photoshop help thread.
Huckleberry Pie replied to MrLlamaLlama's topic in Graphics & Writer's Pad
No Wacom was involved. I did a polygonial lasso of all the necessary regions, and then flood filled them using various blending options, making sure that each colour is on a separate layer. I then slapped a GTASA background on it. Still needs some GTASA-style shading, though, as I find him a little flat-coloured. -

How's this for a colouring project? -
[WIP|SA] The Hollywood Tower Hotel
Huckleberry Pie replied to Huckleberry Pie's topic in GTASA Modding
Me and my mate actually converted it from a Sketchup, although we had to do some corrections to the original. I still suck at 3D you know. -
OK, so Narcis_speed6 and I recently collab'd on a map project for SA, based on the Tower of Terror ride in Disneyland and its film spinoff. We now managed to convert it to DFF, although there are some issues such as LODs and missing stuff. In-progress shot; still beta and has some missing features: Here's the Tower IRL: Teaser trailer: I'll post more pics when we add some stuff... Overall progress: 10~15% TODO: * Interiors * Enex nodes for safehouse/gym/whatever * GUI textures * LOD models/collision/exterior textures I'll release Milestone 1 of this mod when Narcis, a friend of mine from GTAF, and I are done with it. God Bless and enjoy...

It'll run just fine on a laptop, provided that you have a decent graphics chip on it.

Nice... By the way, do you have a storyboard for that or something?

The woman behind a nonviolent uprising in the Philippines, and the one partially credited for inspiring Eastern European nations to stand up against the Iron Curtain, passed away recently at 76. I feel sorry for her, as my dad said that she didn't hog the office unlike Dubya and the current Philippine president did. May The Lord God Bless her and her family.

I'll consider buying a Dummies books, as long as she takes the lessons seriously.

OK, so my 8-year old niece is already adept at computers (no thanks to me letting her play GTASA ), but my mum asks me if I could teach her some skillz. She's a real noob when it comes to PCs, and I find it a tad difficult at teaching her basic SOHO work.

LMAO!!!

If the Zen allows for mass storage, then slapping them in as an ordinary thumb drive may help.

Copy them to your c:\windows\fonts folder, or if you're using Vista/7, right click them and then click on Install. (You may have to extract them from a ZIP file, if needed). Oh, and by the way, how's my tribute to the late Cory Aquino? My brother asked me to shoop a tribute tarp for hers, and here's what I did so far: Any text enhancements or something? Oh, and here's a GIF I made: -
OK, so my mates at a Tower of Terror forum and I decided to do a GTA project based on the ride in Disneyland. Right now we got our hands on a freely exploitable (as in, not like those stolen from EA or R*) model of the Hotel, but I'm having trouble getting it right. I've seen and read the tutorials, but all I get is an epic fail crash when I attempted on another model earlier. Here's an image of my progress so far: If anyone has some input on this, let me know. I'll do the work as long as someone sheds some light on this issue. Oh, and Deji, can you share some code for us in case this one becomes a full blown total conversion?

Cool mod, dude. I'll try it when I have time...
