I dunno about crashes, but whenever my system freezes and the sound loops every few seconds, I know it’s a video card problem. Googling around, I came up with several supposed fixes to the generic “looping sound crash/freeze”. But of course, when I got onto an empty server to give it a whirl, I locked up within minutes. Well, I finally checked up on it recently and noticed they finished it in September, weeks before the launch of TF2 in fact. I’ve been pretty excited off and on over the last year about Fortress Forever, the source engine remake of Half-Life’s Team Fortress Classic mod. Dark Messiah: Overheated my video card initially, but then just started randomly freezing halfway through the game.Check out Steamless Project, but probably don’t bother with the WON alternatives.

Fix: Crack the authentication, because WON is dead. Apparently, NOLF uses MIDI music with their own sound font. Fix: Run DXDIAG, under Music tab, disable “Default Port Acceleration”.
#LAG STEAM TEAM FORTRESS CLASSIC INSTALL#
Fix: Run the DOS installer under compatibility mode for Win95 or just copy the install directory to your hard drive. Red Alert: Problems installing under XP.It seems like every game I’ve played recently has had at least one problem I’ve needed to google, even the older games. The final reason is that my taste for them has been soured by constant bugginess and instability problems. Hopefully, a game will come along soon to prove this wrong, though. Another reason for not playing recent video games is that I feel like I’m turning into the demographic old gamer that only enjoys strategy or nostalgic gaming. Even though the community has fixed the video card shader requirements somewhat, I still feel like I’m having trouble getting into the game because of performance issues–try battling a Big Daddy with 6fps. I was looking forward to playing Bioshock until I found out about the steep system requirements. One is that my system is falling below the acceptable performance level for most new games. I’m not sure exactly what sparked this bought of classic gaming–maybe nothing in particular, but I’ve got some guesses. Alas, I never finished Renegade the two times I tried. It’s too cool being in the middle of a strategy game. Occasionally, I get an urge to play C&C: Renegade again. So, I gave up on NOD and switched to C&C: Red Alert. And no more carting engineers into their base in an APC to jack their shit.

If you don’t have 5 light tanks, you’ll get rocked by a mammoth tank. If you don’t have some SAM sites yet, they’ll fuck you up with helicopters and especially air strikes.

However, the NOD campaign wasn’t as fun as the GDI one GDI has too many versatile heavy weapons. After a week-long intermission of playing NOLF, I moved on to another oldie: Command and Conquer (free here).

Specifically, I played both campaigns of Warcraft 2, plus most of the Human campaign in the expansion pack (Beyond the Dark Portal). I’m not sure if it’s sad or not, but I’ve been having the most fun playing old games lately. I just wanted to ramble about my latest gaming. Really, how often do you see praying mantises fucking on the side of a trailer? Like… never.Īnyways, that’s not the real reason for this post. This is just something I remembered I took a picture of a while back, and I thought “what better place for this than the interwebs!”.
