    [PC Game] Minecraft HF server info and game discussion

    There was a roleplaying server my friend wanted me to join and they have instructions on how to roll back to 1.5 (which is what they just updated to). Do I need to download any of the mods or are they all server side?

    [PC Game] Minecraft HF server info and game discussion

    I've been playing the singleplayer and digging out the cavern/dungeon that's under the area I built my dinky little house on. I also worked a glass corridor under the water just outside and that was a real pain. I have more fun exploring the caverns than I do building at the moment. I...

    GMing advice - dealing with special snowflakes

    Ours wasn't as bad as the others described, but when our old DM decided he wanted to play, he always chose to portray a character so far out in left field...a roleplay challenge. This caused a lot of friction in the group as it often came across as him trying to screw with whoever was DMing...

    Story Idea (Title: The Chronicles of the Third)

    My vote would be for the Third not having any memories. As someone pointed out, it opens an easy door for you to explain the universe that you've created. That's part of what sucked me into Harry Potter. I find the idea of the Third learning about the culture interesting...a lot of directions...

    So, apparently, Thor is good...?

    I got to see it at a sneak peek on Thursday. It was a fun ride. It wasn't the greatest of movies, but it was entertaining. I also saw it in 3D and it was the first 3D movie to give me a headache. But, I got to keep my 3D glasses, so that's a win. In the Marvel Studios films, I rank it...

    Guilty Pleasure Movies: So bad, they're good!

    I'd have to go with Krull, The Gate, and Monster Squad as my guilty pleasures. I'd list the first live action TMNT movie, but I think that was actually a pretty good movie. The others two live action movies? Not so much.

    Desktop upgrade help - fast and quiet

    Rock music. I have a couple of demos up in the artist section. We are going to rerecord it, but there's a rough demo of some music at http://www.coldthewinter.com/music/sofar3b.mp3 and http://www.coldthewinter.com/music/goodbye.mp3 I've changed out a couple of guitars, amps, and effects, so...

    Desktop upgrade help - fast and quiet

    I just bought a stick of RAM that matches my other RAM on eBay. Here's to hoping it's not defective. The seller has good feedback, so I assume I'll be OK. I'm looking into the SSDs. I'll likely check into that one at Costco, as I have a friend with a membership there. I'll set that up as my...

    Desktop upgrade help - fast and quiet

    As it stands right now, in Adobe Audition 3.0 (before I started going legal with my software), my friend and I were able to run something like 20 tracks without an issue. I have a feeling that's going to go up given the fact that I want to layer more guitars in for a varied sound, but I wasn't...

    Desktop upgrade help - fast and quiet

    I'll check my processors when I get home. I could have sworn they were wolfingdales or something like that. As for getting another hard drive, would it be advisable to look into a small SSD drive for my OS system and using the 640gb drive as my audio/music drive? Would my 650w Antec power...

    Desktop upgrade help - fast and quiet

    I upgraded to Win 7 over a year ago. I also did a fresh install of Win 7 a few months ago. I should have mentioned both of those facts in my initial posts. As for on-board sound, the way that I understood it, when I turn on my Digidesign 003, THAT is functioning as my "sound card" when I'm...

    Desktop upgrade help - fast and quiet

    I'm actually still new to Pro Tools and the last time that I tried to use it, it kind of froze up my computer. That makes me think that I have a bottleneck caused by either the mobo and/or RAM. Since I'm using a couple of condenser mics, I need to have as quiet of an environment as possible...

    Desktop upgrade help - fast and quiet

    My computer needs an upgrade. After doing a quick Google search, it would appear that the computer itself gets poor reviews for speed and performance, something I need if I'm going to use the computer for recording music. There's been some good advice in other threads, so I'd figure I'd start...

    Will Smith's Daughter as Annie

    I like the Karate Kid remake a lot. The kid worked well in that movie and, as someone else mentioned, has the same love him/hate him charm that his dad has. Annie doesn't have to be a little white girl. What's the uproar? Morgan Freeman's character of Red in The Shawshank Redemption was an...

    I have a hypotetical law and divorce question.

    Interesting on the alimony bit. Sounds like there has to be some pretty interesting circumstances for alimony to occur in Texas. Not saying that a judge couldn't order it, but it does indeed sound rare. Good to know.

    I have a hypotetical law and divorce question.

    Isn't Chib in Fort Worth, Texas? If so, I'm pretty (95%) sure Texas doesn't have alimony.

    EP unmixed/raw cuts - KCWM's music v2 (11/24)

    Here's an update. Things have been progressing slowly...much slower than I'd like. But, in a way, it's good news. Let me get started I recently upgraded from EZ Drummer to Superior Drummer 2.0, so the drums are going to get an overhaul. SD seems to be a pretty powerful drum program (and for...

    How do you house/apartment hunt?

    Where in Dallas are you looking? If you are looking in the Dallas "area", you could look here in Lewisville. My wife and I REALLY like our apartments here. We are about 1/4 of a mile from I-35E and business 121, which makes access to 114, 635, and 161 easy to get to. The walls are good. I...
