Gosh, all that's left now is to fire up the old Q2 goodness and just see how far behind it has become graphically! Sure hope Foo has a good enough graphics card now.

Re: Hello, it's me


Nah, I wasn't in high school. I was in my second to last year of college. If it weren't for the high-speed internet goodness of the university, I wouldn't have likely started playing online multiplayer. Yes, I'm married now, but there aren't any kids. Still living in the Kansas City area, too.

So Foo, did you ever invest in a new video card, or are you still on something manufactured in 1998? emoticon



RADEON 9800PRO ROCKS ON!

I built a new box in April 2009, cut and pasted from my newegg orders emoticon

Foo's box:
 
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200 Brisbane 2.7GHz Socket AM2 65W Dual-Core Processor Model ADO5200DOBOX - Retail Item #: N82E16819103210
 
SAPPHIRE 100265L Radeon HD 4830 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Retail Item #: N82E16814102803

RAIDMAX SMILODON ATX-612WBP Black 1.0mm SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Foldout MB Computer Case With 500W Power Supply - Retail Item #: N82E16811156062

I bought 4GB RAM, but I think Windows only sees 3GB... dunno if it's a major problem.

Hey on another note... for the ones who are playing Q2 more often these days, which server do you recommend we all meet on? It can't be a crazy populated DM server cause then there'll be toooooo much spamming (or do we want that?). Anyway, let's hear some suggestions so some of us can visit them.

Foo, windows will only see 3.5gb of RAM as long as you're running 32bit windows. If you upgrade to the 64bit versions of Vista or Win7, you will be able to use beyond the 3.5gb barrier. It's not a windows problem as much as it's a 32bit problem. Of course, it's not even really a problem, since your PC will work fine, it just won't use all your RAM.

BTW, Win7 is pretty nice. I tried the beta out with much amusement. I should be getting the free upgrade for my notebook soon!

Re: Hello, it's me


Squirrel, if you want to toss some pineapples around for old times sake, tasty spleen has a boat load of servers. Check out their websites for the IPs:

http://www.tastyspleen.net/quake/servers/list.cgi

Most end up playing in their DM and Vanilla servers (Vanilla for ye olde Single Player mappages), only the port numbers differ:

dm: 74.54.186.226:27916
vanilla: 74.54.186.226:27912
vanilla2: 74.54.186.226:27920

Interestingly, they have a warehouse only server... to satisfy those who want ye old dm8 only server (what was the name???):
74.54.186.226:27922


Of course, I'd like to hear suggestions from those who are still playing emoticon

Morning, wow they do exist! Thought we had lost ya'll forever. I still hang around on tastyspleen railz or dm when time permits. Drop me note in the private section.
That reminds me, probably need to check my info and see if it's correct since we moved in April of 09.

That reminds me, everyone owes back dues, which, after inflation, late fees, and interest, come to $1,000 each. Just send me your checks, and I'll clear it off your credit rating. emoticon

Umm, the check is in the mail emoticon

ON another note Squirrel, have u had a chance to hit any of the Tasty Spleen Q2 servers? I've run into Hugo & Biglurch this past weekend. I have some screenies of being ontop of the scoreboard a couple of times... too lazy to post, heh.

Haven't really played anywhere just yet. When I get some time to play a game, it's usually something on my 360 while the Mrs is on the PC. I don't always get a night to play! emoticon
