by Maarten Goldstein, Aug 20, 2002 6:51am PDTWell that certainly was surprising news about Battlefield 1942 already going gold, especially with the several issues (some big, some not so much) that the demo has. However after that news came out I was informed EA is actually still testing the gold submission, though I doubt many changes will be made. It's sad that we have to wait for a patch yet again. In some sad news this morning, here is the obituary of William A. Scarboro, former programmer of 3D Realms. At 3DR he worked on Rise of the Triad and the Prey renderer. id Software's Jim Dose and 3DR's Joe Siegler have .plan updates about this.

If people could connect to SERVER #2 and let me know how you ping and how the server performance is, I would appreciate it. I would like to take Server #1 down if Server #2 runs much better. We do need more PW Bf1942 servers, but I don't think we need THREE.

However, I think I've met my match, out of all the "not so good" colas I've had (any Diet Cola), I've finally met a non-diet cola that I could NOT finish.
Pepsi Blue.
Do they have test drinkers or ANYTHING? Has anyone finished a whole 20oz of this? It tastes like a watered down popsicle or one of those drinks from that toy a long time ago where you could make your own drinks and it had a evil scientist as the cartoon for it on the box. This shit is gonna have a shorter life expactancy than Surge, and Surge was actually GOOD.

I then used my toshiba notebook with wireless on the same access point and everthing was fine. FTPing into the ibook was fine until I started to download.. then it would just freeze.
Anyway, to cut a long and boring story short - I finally solved it by setting the MTU on the iBook down to 500 - anything larger than about 550 would cause it to drop packets.
So, here's a big STFU to APPLE! ,,|,,
Today will be another day that will go into the historical posts. Today, DirecTV® officially shut off support for the P2 (H) series access cards on some channels. The trend is expected to continue, with more and more channels being affected in the next several days.
The channels affected today are:
375, 377, 402-499 (except 432)
The reason for the loss of channels, is, as predicted, that the video authorization packets for those channels have been changed to a format that only the HU and P4 can process, and only the HU and P4 can generate the correct video decryption keys. The H/P2 card cannot generate the video keys for these channels anymore, no matter what is done to the card.
It is important to understand that the underlying cryptography has changed now such that the P2/H card cannot generate the video decryption keys for this channel anymore. Only the P3 and P4 can. No matter what you do to an H card, H emulator, or any other device that uses the P2 algorithm, you cannot decrypt this channel.
Interesting to note in this packet is the structure and flags present in the Cmd90. The 3rd byte of the Cmd90, bit 6, tells the HU card whether the contents of the Cmd90 are encrypted or not. In this case, they are not (3rd byte = 80h). After all the channels become HU-native, the VA packets may change to become encrypted (3rd byte = C0h).
Also interesting is that DirecTV® has shut off support for the P2/H access card on these channels while there are still (apparently) at least a few still-subscribed P2/H access cards that have not been swapped to a P3 or P4 card. The customer service problems from this may create some problems, but it is unknown actually how many subscribers this move may affect. As of today, virtually all the channels that have been shifted to HU-native are Para Todos channels, which require an oval dish and 119 satellite feed. The only receivers capable of tuning in dual sats with the oval dish are 5th generation and higher IRDs, which, to my knowledge, were all sold with P3/HU access cards.
However, if the trend continues to other, more popular channels on the 101 satellite, there are likely to be at least a few not-so-happy customers that still have a valid P2/H access card.
Certainly easier to hack than the P3/HU card, the P2/H will live in history as the card that many people were first introduced to. Though the P1/F card was actually the easiest to hack, the P2/H holds a special place for a lot of us, especially a lot of the coders that worked on scripts for that card in its heyday in the summer and fall of 2000. I will miss the H card. :(
Some dates to remember:
June 23, 1997: Death of the P1/F card
November 21, 1997: First P2/H card ECM
May 18, 1998: P2/H card USW 26, closing the E3 hole
October 6, 1999: Magic ECM
March 15, 2000: First introduction of Call Ext. 745
November 7, 2000: P2/H card USW 63, first introduction of 60/C9 dynamic code

January 23, 2001: First P3/HU card ECM - DSW 0001, targeting dealer code
March 21, 2001: Aktivator and Dynaceptor ECM
March 29, 2001: First P3/HU card USW - USW 0001, targeting dealer code
October 22, 2001: P3/HU card DSW 0006, first introduction of Cmd 82 dynamic code
Aug 19-??, 2002: Death of the P2/H card

was playin on ashkies last night and my friend 'wake&bake' joined, he went on axis to make it fair. anyway, we didn't get many chances to blow each other up, but i was doin well tryin to help win the map and be 'top 3'! :D anyway.. the big battle near the end comes down at the airfield, i see him in a tank at the far other end of the airstrip from the planes, he's staring at me and even takes a potshot just for kicks. i am RIGHT next to where the Sherman respawns and it pops up within 15 seconds of our stare-off! :D I thought i'd just rush his ass and hopefully outgun him and use my momentum to get a side/rear shot. it worked! my first shot was straight on and he seemed to fire right as i hit him so his volley veered away. He ended up trying to make a break for it and i hit him in the rear for the KO! :D ...... he came back and shot me tho in the face a respawn later when i didn't have the tank anymore :(
i am pre-ordering this, RIGHT NOW.
