  1. does anyone here believe in reincarnation?

    I believe in recycled souls. Not that you come back as a rat or a dung beetle but as human.

    because I recently read a lil about it and I started believing in it because it offered me some answers to some questions that the religion apparently cannot answer. I dont usually believe in things that have no logic, and because the religion wasnt able to provide me with logical explanations, I started looking for answers on my own, and I found some in astrology.

    There are actually few religions that don't believe in reincarnation on some level. To make life fair, such as the deaths young people, I believe a system is in place to recycle the soul and give it another shot. I think Catholics believe the unbaptized soul of a child goes to limbo. I am not catholic just going by something I heard.

    I have a question if any of you could answer. If God created us, the man should be the most important creation, the essence. Why is this so important creation of his so small compared to the whole Universe. You probably know that Earth is soo little compared to other planets, the Sun itself is like a proton compared to other stars. Don't you think we're a little selfish to think we are the center of the Universe?

    I believe God created a universe full of life. Why does one create anything? You create stories, pictures, games to entertain and amuse. This little fragment of life (humans) will die, and I believe we will be given the ability to create our own worlds in this vast universe. Children of our own to watch, to laugh at, or cry over. Think of the universe as the untouched canvas.

  2. There's no sex thinking in the women's brain :huh: ?

    OMG! am I a... man then?

    this is ridiculous, there are so many examples that prove this wrong. no need to say more. but I guess this is for those that find it funny.

    Have you checked your hormones lately? :lolbounce:

    :thumbsdown: Rape doesn't equal sex, no more than love equal sex. They "psychologists" say, the average male thinks about sex every 20 minutes. I don't think about it much but I am not "average". No one is average. You can't put people into boxes. You can say that due to hormones, they have different effects on our thinking process.

    :thumbsup: A fun thing I did at school, I went down a hall with a girl and we took notes on what we observed. The teacher collected our notes and my attention was focused on people and what they were doing. The girl's notes were focused on the decor of hall pictures and wall outlets. From that small experiment, we drew the theory that males tend to focus on people while females tend to focus on details of the environment.

    Kokane is correct, I think there are many aggressive women in the world if you open your eyes. Don't fall for the media mandate.

  3. Hello Guys!

    I Don't Know How To Work With handling.cfg so i want to make a bike faster

    please can anybody give me the handling line which can make bike speed more fast ?

    Thanks.

    For San Andreas?

  4. Cleaned out all the dust, replaced the front case fan. And yeah it's an AMD Athlon 62 dual core. 4200+

    Peel off the center sticker and using house hold oil "3 in 1 Oil" place one drop on the axle. Cover using tape or another sticker of the same size. Works all the time from my experience. Quiets the fans and prolongs the life.

  5. I find from observation of my parents, that it shows the most when they are driving. My dad drives with his gaze fixed forward his eyes traveling in a machine like scan of the road before him. My mom will point out the yard sales and points of interest to the left and right that he fails to notice as we travel down the road. Meanwhile if my mom drives she tends to look all over hitting curbs and crashing into things as I claw at the dashboard and scream like a little girl. Is that the difference, well our car insurance seems to think so. Mom has a ticket or an accident on average of at least once a year. In 2007 she killed my dad's KIA and blamed it on the other woman who was talking on her cell phone. Dad asked her what she was doing at the time. She admitted that she was trying to cut off the semi truck behind her. In 2008 she got ticketed for doing 35 mph in a school zone. She said it was the female officer's fault for following her and making her nervous. She says it's hard to pay attention to your speed when you are looking in the mirror. So far this year isn't over just yet...

  6. It makes you think, couldn't you run bathroom appliances on a reduced current? Not that a laptop is a bathroom appliance. If all the electrical outlets in the bathroom ran through a 12 volt DC transformer, the bulbs could be 12 volt, even the electric tooth brush and hairdryer. Then the most you could get off something being dropped into the tub would be a tickle. Unless you ran an extension cord from the next room.

    The laptop must of had an AC connector on the back, my mom's uses a power brick that plugs into the outlet. If she had that or was running on battery she couldn't get fried.

  7. AH, beat my brother in here this time. Welcome to the Friday update.

    Well I managed to find even more to rip out of the SCRIPT audio and toss. I did a remix on some of the audio, and found some great TTS software to add even more voices. Don't worry they won't sound like robots... I know my sounds.

    I have to wait for JAB (Joshua) to finish fine tuning about 3 missions and it looks to me like a mid to late July release but I won't jinx it by saying it so... I think we all know how something simple can snowball into something much bigger.

    Josh was working on the "Epislon Cult" and "Jefferson Airplane" last. Looking over his notes I see, he has to do Chinese Steak, Donuts From Hell, and Court Room Riot remaining.

    Well as some of you may know it is the 4th of July tomorrow, and we have parties, shoot off fireworks, get drunk and go to jail. I think it has something to do with England. I don't know why but it seems to be some kind of holiday here... I just go with the flow and don't ask too many questions.

    Happy 4th, of whatever.

  8. Cheapest:

    Technically if you are just looking at playing the ONE game GTA IV... Then buy a used Xbox and a used game at the used game store in the mall. Play the nuts off it then sell it in the paper or back to the used game store

    Midranged:

    Upgrade your current PC to play the game, buy a new or used copy at the mall.

    Costly:

    Find a good PC with good graphics, RAM, and plenty of room for future expansion and get the new copy at the mall.

    Bill Gates:

    Buy Rockstar.

    But seriously the 360 came out in late 2005 and even if they plan to replace it there will be plenty of used ones around. PC impo is the best way to go. I myself own a PS2, but don't play it that much, I am always on my PC. I could never run GTA IV on this system. Since I am running Linux Kubuntu and the system is only 512MB RAM with a 256MB Nvidia card (older model), I don't even play much games on here except my online games. I have played GTA IV on the 360 at my cousin's house and I didn't care for it. I stick with Vice City and VCS on my PS2.

  9. This has really been a sore spot with me for a few years. Why must we upgrade the video cards? The Nvidia or ATI logos always pop up in full view on most every game you play. Last year, I was ready to buy the game Spore from EA when I downloaded the demo, it popped up after the install that it required pixel shader 2.0 :thumbsdown:

    WHY?! :blink: If I don't desire the high level graphics why not set a lower graphic level option? Am I going to really care if my pixels are shaded. :pissed: Some people wouldn't even notice. My dad explained that these graphics card companies are in league with the software manufacturers to force the high end gamer to upgrade the video at least every 2 years. I feel I should have the right to install the game on any system and the software should adjust to the system. Hell I should be able to play the game in wire frame mode if want. -_-

    Anyway after my brother upgraded his system I finally got my chance to demo Spore and got bored with Spore pretty quick. :zZZ: I recently tried another game demo Black and White 2 and couldn't run the demo, even on my brother's PC. He just did a complete rebuild last February. Not even 4 months and it is telling him his PC is not good enough. :wtf:

    Well that is my opinion, I believe if people want crappy analog TV then they should have the option to watch it. But now the FCC passed that HD thing here in the US and any TV (like mine) can only play PS2 games. No signals are broadcast in FM anymore. My grandpa said that is another conspiracy to force people to buy the newer more expensive HD TV sets. He has a box on his analog and said the volume level sucks.

    What is your opinion?

  10. Sure why not. The handling file is just a text file. Best to open with notepad click on Format on your tool bar and make sure "word wrap" is not marked.

    Anything with a semicolon is for you to read and ignored by the program. For example;

    ; TWEAK AT YOUR OWN RISK
    ;

    The first line of code is way down there;

    LANDSTAL	 1700.0  5008.3 2.5 0.0 0.0 -0.3  85  0.75 0.85 0.5	  5 160.0 25.0 20.0 4 D 6.2   0.60 0 35.0  2.4  0.08  0.0   0.28 -0.14 0.5  0.25	0.27 0.23 25000 20	500002	0  1	0

    This is the handling for the Landstalker. 1700.0 is the vehicle weight (values in metrics) If you increase this value to 25000.0 when you hit a light weight car you won't feel it. Just like jousting the heavier unit wins. The 5008.3 is the mass on a turn and this makes the Landstalker very easy to flip. Drag is how much the vehicle will slow down on its own. A zero value means it won't stop on its own. The next 3 numbers are the location of the vehicle center of gravity. Playing with these values can have some freeky results (cars that flop around like fish).

    See this?

    ; (N) TransmissionData.fMaxVelocity		[5.0 to 150.0]
    ; (O) TransmissionData.fEngineAcceleration	[0.1 to 10.0]

    The Landstalker has 5 gear transmission and right after that is 160.0 which is its top speed and acceleration of 25.0

    Those are the values to increase to make it go faster.

    To continue, where this starts to get kind of tricky is at the end of the line and the "flags" are written in hexadecimal. For example if the vehicle you are editing has a 2G Boost the first digit would be 2 but if you want both the 2G Boost and NPC ANTI ROLL then you would add 4 and make it a 6. Anything with letters A - F are really numbers 10 - 15 but since we need 2 spaces to type 10 the letter A is the substitute.

    Be sure to back up your file, experiment and get messy.

  11. Hey,

    I've installed about 20 cars on GTA: SA... I've only found 2 in-game, how is it possible to found the one we install fast?

    I don't really know IDs or w/e...

    Thanks, try replying fast ^^

    Jim.

    Cheat codes and trainers help. Download a trainer that allows you to place the car inside your garage.

  12. i downloaded the super punch and the devastation weapons mod, and they worked perfectly

    but for an odd reason the "all people fight each other and you" code stayed in place after a save, so i wanted to start my game new

    but every time i go to like the second or third ted light when you start it freezes

    i deleted the fist fite file and reinstalled the game

    the fist fite mod was gone but the game was still freezing. so i got rid of the gxt edit and the text went back to normal a few reinstalls later and it was still freezing, then i think i pinned it down to the weapon.dat bineg the problem as it is modded

    but every time i delete the file and reinstall the game the modded file is reinstalled on the disk as if it were written in the installation itself, but i never manually put the mod in the install disk itself

    all i really want is the unmodded files

    if more problems occur ill get help.

    P.S. im new so can i get a link to the rules?

    People are pretty tight about not sharing unmodded files here. But your problem sounds Vista related to me. Did you do a full uninstall first and then reinstall?

  13. Ok this is your problem "Windows Vista" and why I run Linux and my brother runs XP.

    If you modify or create a program in the “program files” directory, or a program does it for you, Vista will play tricks on you.

    This includes:

    1. Editing a file yourself, even if you have administrator privleges

    2. Any program that writes a data file to the program files directory (unless it’s an installer).

    3. Any program that writes configuration or .ini files to the program files directory (unless that program was launched by an installer).

    Vista makes some sort of “shadow” copy. That’s what happens when Vista asks for special permission to continue with the “file save” or delete. You will find the old file lurking in: C:\Users\USER ID\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\ So you could mess with it there.

    So if you want to make changes to a program you must install it to something other than the default directory. Some Vista users install to the desktop. I would try to reinstall to C:\Rockstar Games\GTA San Andreas Modded (if you have the drive space for two installs). Then edit the handling.cfg file as you please.

    My bro Josh has no problems running SA in XP, but recently assembled a new system. Using a dual core processor he found out he must set the affinity to which processor to run it on. SA lags a bit on my system, but I have had much success running my Vice City in Linux using Wine.

    :thumbsup:

  14. Okey. But how change the skin face?

    I find skin simillar. In this skin i trying change face to face Kurt Rusell. Can you help me and change only face :) But thx a lot for all . You helped me so much.

    1. You go to google and google an good face shot you like of Kurt Russel

    2. Drink Coco-cola!

    3. Follow my brothers editing the peds tutorial as I just did.

    Q. Post said image for people to download

    ?. Eh, raise the dead.

    The pop it back inside your gta3.img file.

    :lolbounce:

    WMYST.bmp

    I used serious young Kurt from the old days. Not perfect but he only took about 20 minutes.

  15. Bugger the planet! I like to be clean.

    I guess I will have to find a French girl to date. Damn. Everybody I know hates the French.

    I (very reluctantly*) shower every night. I will only shower in the morning if I have to go to the doctors or something.

    *Why shower when you can play GTA?

    It's called personal hygene mate, we aren't all a bunch of dirty animals!

    I try to shower every morning, but sometimes I oversleep and dont have time so if that happens I'll do it when I get in from school.

    Things are always changing... except my clothes, but some day in the future the robots and cyborgs will discover that taking too many showers is the leading cause of cancer. Also known as rust.

  16. I try not to shower for the fear that I might accidentally clean too much of myself away. Hey! It's my dirt and I wear it proudly. ;)

    In all reality, I like to save on water. I take my showers late at night and only ever other day. In the morning I use Axe body spray.

  17. I want a mission made FOR VC where you can hunt down and kill the GM's

    Sounds like you have bigger psychotic issues than I do. How long have you been talking to Frank the invisible rabbit? :erm:

    There are some interesting points to be made here;

    I know ditily squat about programming / coding .... It would take me years to learn enough to do anything with it.

    You have no desire to learn, people are in this place to learn from each other. This makes your "request" undesirable to them. Basic psychobable 101 -_- You should have asked some one to "take you on as an apprentice" to complete your quest. Believe me it doesn't take "years" to learn. My brother does it and he isn't as smart as me. :blink:

    In case some one is willing. Here is some of the mission info i want for this.

    Since again you are not willing to learn, people who know won't teach. >.<

    Why do i want to hunt down and kill Joymax Gm's in vice city???

    1. Vice city lots of people play and it's also easy to find. I can still find it in local wal-marts.

    :wtf: Does this statement mean you don't even own a copy of Vice City for the PC? :wtf:

    2. If you have ever played silkroad online you would know. They don't care about nothing but money.

    Yeah, we all should get a free copy of WoW and full year of online access just because we want it. :lamo:

    While I don't play Silkroad or WoW, I have all the Guildwars. It cost me about $120 to buy them all. My own money not my parents, but I have unlimited access to all the areas. You can get started with as little as $30 or less. But all MMORPGS are going to cost you money one way or another. MMORPGS won't last forever either, someday in the future the company that runs it will shut down and go out of business. :cry:

    I want this mission made so I can post the download links on the joymax forums and get the whole 100% of the Silkroad legit players who cannot log in the game servers into playing GTA VC instead. Just for the fact that they can actually hunt down and kill the people who are supposed to police the game.

    If people don't like Silkroad they will just quit playing it. There are no GM's in Guildwars. I have had no problems with bots but we are not allowed to use bots. Your posting sounds very much like the letter of an angry child :pissedred: who is bent on proving something to a group who doesn't even know or care you exist. :whistle:

    I am sorry you feel the way you do, but you will get over it. If you don't I would suggest medication, rest and intensive psychotherapy.

  18. Hello,

    As promised an update on our progress; I have been using pdescobar's audio Script guide to reduced the size of our audio. Now most of you who use SAAT to edit your audio know, the SCRIPT audio file is about 304MB and when you replace audio it tends to get bigger or smaller. Since our mod doesn't require a lot of the mission audio banks I went through bank by bank and blanked the ones with original mission dialog.

    What this means, I replaced a great deal of files with a short silence of 2.38 KB each. This alone has reduced the file greatly in size. It is about 80MB now but I am still looking for other items to blank out. One of the largest banks is the first "Place names for crime reports". But this one is needed if we are inside a police car.

    You only need to worry about this size issue if you are planning on getting the JOE distribution. However it will be the easy install. The PRO distro contains roughly around 10MB of audio files you must inject into your scipt using SAAT. I of course suggest you use Alci's GUI to do that.

    Now as for my brother Joshua, he regrets NOT adding his info text and subtitles to his missions prior to finishing them. He is still plugging away at the American.GXT file. It is not so much that you must type word for word the dialog but you must place it at the right spot and display it long enough to be read. From my point of view the missions are vastly improved when you know your objectives.

    In the PRO distro Josh has all the scripts playable in main.scm and has also separated them individually so you don't have to load everything to study how just one mission functions.

    Also I got his permission to post his mission list:

    Mission

    A note from Josh (Jabhacksoul): I fully intend to have it done and uploaded this summer, I fell behind so bad at school... ok I have less credits than my brother who is in the 10th grade and I am in the 12th. My Dad is more understanding than Mom who wanted to ship me off to the army. I lost my girl (she was hot) to another guy (the emo freak) and got real depressed and blew off a lot of activities. But I am over that now. My Mom wants me to get a part-time job and work the summer like I did last summer. Dad says, Whatever... I think I will do whatever. Actually I will be helping my Dad around the house and that means more time on the PC. Over 50% of the list above is 100% completed. Because we farted up the script using the Tenpenny mesh in place of Carl Johnson I still have a bug with Tenpenny eating at the restaurants. Since the missions are not depending on you eating I am not going to worry about it. But if pretzel boy shows his ugly head just run to the nearest save game point and it should fix it.

    reason for edit: I had mission 8 and 9 flipped. :P
