Pissed off

I am sick of certain people's attitudes on gamedev as of lately. I start a topic to discuss pirating and the loss of PC games due to consoles seem to be taking over, and big dev houses that are considered PC game companies are moving their main platforms to consoles. So what happens it gets into a debate on the fucking semantics of stealing or copyright bullshit. REGARDLESS ITS WRONG AND ILLEGAL. And I could give a fuck less who you think you are or what you think you know. So what happens I try to be civil about it, and get a down rating. Shit like this makes me move closer to closing my account at gamedev and demand a refund on my time left. Pretty sure I remember a discussion about in the lounge how keep the personal down ratings out for it's more opinions and not related to how helpful you are or how you behave towards others in the main topic areas.

On a lighter note, I got PBOs working for streaming textures now. Wow they speed up my load times but a decent amount, well worth the time invested. Also the memory requirments are less now, in task manager I was at 175MB now I am down to 65MB!!! Nice drop.

Moved to Vista Ultimate 64bit last night. In the process of updating and installing everything again. What is the deal with EM64T and AMD64? The SDK only supports amd64? I haven't done any research on the two other than I know one is Intel and the other AMD and both are 64bit... I read that MS is saying amd64 is the 64bit versions? Some say x86-64??? Confusion sets in.


Now I am off to find some other smart mouth punk to give a beating to...

Don't let the lounge lizards get you down. Not entirely correct, but I liken it to the "don't argue with idiots, they'll bring you down to their level and beat you with experience" [lol]

Stick to the technical forums and journals and your faith in GDNet will hopefully be restored!

Thanks Jolly! "A tear forms in Mars's eye!" You are the best! :D
