Released: the KrAcTAgOn!
This is the first public release of an old level that has been languishing on my hard drive(s). Kracon wanted me to release this level a long time ago. Since he liked it so much I named it after him. It is designed for CTF, Entropy, Anarchy and Hoard. It should support 2vs2 to 4vs4. It's currently a...

For most people - under most circumstances - using full hud names for visibility and aiming is of no great advantage. Players camping in the shadows would be an exception. I actually find huds to be a hindrance when it comes to aiming. The true benefit of full huds is for strategy during team games....

I don't know what can be done to help the situation with D1/D2 multiplayer. I've never played D1 or D2 online. As for D3, after PXO went down I posted about an idea I had that would get more people playing, and playing more often. I posted about the idea here: http://www.descentbb.net/phpbb/viewtopi...

Thanks Leon, and GGs. Even at a 50 ms ping disadvantage you were holding your own. It was beginning to look like you were more comfortable in the level than me.

KoolBear, please delete j9.zip from your website. The level had a serious enough problem that it should be deleted. There are two J9 threads in this forum because Fern moved a thread from the Multiplayer forum. Anyway, J9 v1.1 - the fixed version - has been uploaded to: http://www.koolbear.com/Desce...

Alright, let's try this again. J9 v1.0 should be deleted from any websites that now carry the level (j9.zip). The problem with the custom object in v1.0 is serious enough to warrant the deletion of the level. J9 v1.1 is the fixed version of J9. It has been uploaded to koolbear's website. You can get...

Counting just those who have posted here (including myself), the total is up to 5 in favor, 2 in doubt, and who knows where the rest stand on this idea.

I have a SB Audigy 2 sound card, and I canâ??t hear D3 sounds when D3 is minimized. Of the two D3 players Iâ??ve asked, neither of them can hear D3 sounds when D3 is minimized either. So having the ability to monitor even one server is not an option for myself and other D3 players. Having the abilit...

How to Fill D3's Servers
I have an idea that I brought up in another thread, while discussing another topic. I think the idea got lost in that thread, so Iâ??m posting it here. ---------- Problem: You join a server and sit there for 5 minutes or more, but no one joins so you give up and leave. Possible solution: Players cou...

Suzanna, I'm sorry to read that Freespace 2 is in dier straits as well, without PXO. I wish you luck, and I keep my fingers crossed that PXO will come back in some form or another for all games that were dependant on PXO. If by some miracle it does come back, I just hope it isn't too late. Suncho, r...

Reality Check... D3 Needs PXO
Okayâ?¦ soâ?¦ some of you think that PXO being down is a good thing. There is supposed to be this massive tidal wave of new blood that is going to hit D3â??s servers any day now â?? or I guess, we have to believe any month now. Before PXO went down, D3 was almost dead. I seem to recall seeing perhap...

I'm honestly not a fan of weapons mods. But what BW is about to release is something VERY special. BW has put a tremendous effort into creating this complete set of new/modded weapons. And while he has somehow managed to make them well balanced and retain the D3 feel, he has made them different enou...
