Re: So HDTP in a magazine again (with a few others - TNM)

I say release it as a public beta. Then release the final product after you are finished with everything. Maybe with a public release more people will join the mod and help finish the last few things that need doing.

Mmm...if only vanilla deus ex actually had a toilet-roll dispenser mesh. :P In the future, water jets that clean your ass are built into all the toilets. There is no need for toilet paper. this is off topic, but after all these years of being on the forum I only just noticed that Jonas' avatar chan...

The Dutch state just bought one of the major banks, Fortis. Completely unexpected I might add. More info in English: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/aea50888-9169-11dd-b5cd-0000779fd18c.html?nclick_check=1 Yikes. It looks like many of the European banks are in even worse shape than their American counter...

I certainly hope there's no meaner sniper weapon than the M82. Unless you count the arsenal mounted on an AC-130 Spectre: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC-130H_Spectre I guess considering the accuracy of its targetting, that's technically a plane with a 105 mm sniper rifle :P (Although of course it ...

Re: Your Favorite Underrated Games

Obviously, Deus Ex would come to mind in this situation and although it is my most favorite game, I'm not going to talk about it. Anyway, maybe I'm just weird, but I seem to come across many underrated games which I wind up liking more than most games. One game I believe is underrated is a game cal...

Not like you guys will care, but I got into silver in 2001 because I didn't like what was going on with the lower and lower mortgage down payment trend. I'm thinking about selling most of it and going 20% silver, 30% TIPS, and 50% securities. I'm thinking about moving more into securities because I ...

Actually banks with security affiliates are the ones that are still sound for the most part. In other words, Glass Steagall would have made this meltdown even worse than it is.

Please don't abandon the project! I have been watching this thing for years. DX is one of the best 3 games of all time(in case you were wondering that is an indisputable fact) and really needs this update. Keep up the good work team. Almost there!

Oh man, I thought I did a write-up about how to get HDTP to work within Steam. Well, the long and short of it is, you need a copy of DeusEx.exe from a non-Steam copy of the game. Then, replace the Steam DeusEx.exe with the retail DeusEx.exe and it should work. And since you're trying to use HDTP th...

Is there any way to use the dancing animations from DE2? I remember they were a huge improvement over the ones in the original. Probably not, but if I was gonna take dancing animations from any game at all, it would be World of Warcraft. Well if that is the case we could probably still use them as ...

DX2 was a bad move not necessarily because its very bad 3d engine or its very large list of bugs. It was a bad move because it had no story. DX2 had a bad engine? A large list of bugs? No story? I must've picked up the wrong game at the shop. Clearly you didn't buy the game before the first few pat...
