Avast here. Not great, but decent. Panda's detection seemed better, but I prefer local heuristic scanning as opposed to cloud-based scans (bandwidth). And, if you use multiple computers, Avast for Business is free. In addition to the desktop app, it provides a web-based central management console ...

I had the same problem on an old laptop yesterday.

Got around the ridiculousness by using a 3rd party tool called Windows Update Offline Installer:

It worked great. Maybe it could help you, too.

Thanks!

Verran

Yeah. TFS is a horrid lump of WTF. The sad thing is, most MS shops, at least here around Denver, are using it. Hope that stops soon.

Verran

git or Mercurial. I like both. They're free. For repo cloud hosting: github.com is nice, but so is bitbucket.org. Yeah, try not to keep files you don't need versioned. Isolate them somewhere else, especially large files. Could you use cloud file sharing like Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive for ...

Hope to be there! Thank you Mike & team!

UE4 does not have native P2P support. Descendant Studios would have to build an implementation into UE4 on their own.

P2P is on the UE4 roadmap, marked under 'Wishlist/Backlog', with 180 votes so far; go vote!

I received word that JinX passed away on Monday, the night of March 3rd. No details beyond that. Sean and I worked on some programming projects together. He was a super smart guy and fun to joke around with. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to family and friends. Rest in ...

Ok thanks Grendel!

I have a [really dumb] question. I went through the threads and couldn't find it, but I apologize if it's on here somewhere. Does the adapter only provide a DirectInput interface for Windows? Or does it [also?] provide an XInput interface? If not, would something like this be possible? I don't know ...

I've created a Windows utility that should register these protocols so you can join games from your browser (or other apps). Syntax: d1x://ip:port d2x://ip:port Note: it uses Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0. http://www.descentrangers.com/DxxBrowserLauncherSetup.1.2.zip Clarification: joining ...

Excellent work.

I'd love to see your high definition models in the Descent to UDK project!

I still think Neverwinter Nights 1 was the best multiplayer RPG ever made. Diablo 3 doesn't even come close (well, it is more pretty...).

Verran

Resolved: http://community.smoothwall.org/forum/v ... 83#p307883

Not ideal, though. Stupid computers. (it wasn't the drive jumpers, so the cause is still unresolved)

Verran

Howdy, Hoping some Linux gurus might be able to help. I'm trying to install a new copy of Smoothwall on to a box that was running Smoothwall for years. I get through setup okay until it partitions my hard drive. It says "Unable to create boot partition". I discovered it is trying to partition /dev ...

God, I can't live without Resharper, which means I'll never use VS Express. *grumble* *walks away*

Another essential: install the Firebug add-on to Firefox and use it for debugging. The console is a life saver, especially if you do anything with ajax.

My new song, "Foregone" is available for download here (free): http://www.vukovich.net/Foregone.mp3 or here: http://soundcloud.com/verran/foregone I wrote the song, and my good friend, Yasmin, wrote the lyrics and performed the vocals. This song is very special because it is my first collaboration ...

Verran

Ahhh yep that is mine. Great work!

Verran

Gah, and now suddenly it works.

Sounds great! Excellent job. Whoa, wait a second, I don't think this is a song I wrote, though. You have a link to the original midi?

Verran

Wow, cool, I've never had anyone remix a track of mine. Any chance you could post a direct link to the download? The player on Planet Descent just doesn't work for me (tried Chrome, Firefox, IE and Opera without luck). Thanks! Would love to hear it.

I could probably setup an OpenVPN install, sure, but I'm jaded after my "fun" with Zeroshell. Plus, having read OpenVPN configuration how to's... fruck!, what a pain in the ass! Sure, I could try it, and hope everything works right off the bat. If not: I am so tired of wasting hours on this, hence ...

Verran

It's a shame that one of your locations blocks ssh traffic, because IMO it's the best solution. Is there any chance that you could petition to the network manager to have it un-blocked? Haha, I wish. One day I found a server that wasn't being monitored, and I needed to restart Apache on a remote ...

Verran

ThinVNC is very cool, but it won't let me actually connect to the remote network. It may have to do, though. Still open to more suggestions and alternatives!

Verran

Sorry guys, I was in a rush out the door while typing this. My fault. I meant to say "at home, in addition to a client's office". So it would be for both commercial and non-commercial use. My client doesn't have a ton of cash to spend. I want to get around firewall blocks (so I can get in no matter ...

Verran

Okay, so, I would like to setup a VPN server at home, but I need to be able to specify the port it is running on (which cuts out your basic "incoming connection" setup in Winblows). I checked out Monowall and scrapped it thanks to installation frustration (USB problems). I then tried Zeroshell ...

Verran

I have the HAF X. It's freaking crazy huge, but I like it.

- Thief

- Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain

- Legend of Zelda

Others:

- Ultima Underworld

- Doom

- Might & Magic: Dark Messiah

- Bioware's Neverwinter Nights (1, not 2)

Descent is on my top 10.

Got mine and they work GREAT -- tested on Windows 7 64bit with Rebirth and XL! Thank you!

If you have any left I'll buy two!

Thanks Pandora! I use Propellerhead's Record/Reason products... they're awesome!

Verran

Cool, hope you like it.

Yep, I helped out with the Obsidian soundtrack. The good old days of midi.
