Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Dec 14, 2002 5:00pm PSTOh man, I'm still feeling full from that chili, that was some good stuff. Cant say a rice maker really thrilled me much at all though, seemed like more hassle than convenience. What is up with chicks and wanting to watch figure skating on TV? Freaky
- What makes a tune catchy - Some crazy 20ft altitude flying plane (Yes, a plane that does fly) - Japan has some fruity space program ideas - Some reporter whined a bunch and got to ride a Segway - Online pranksters vs freedom of information dude - Finally, we wont be hearing much more about Napster - Alternative web browsers... there are alternatives?Lastly, another call for Linux standardization for all you nerds out there, make it easier!

Phil is taking pictures of his sister-in-law. Isn't he married and shit? Doesn't he have kids and shit? Isn't he like 30 or 40 and shit? I expect at some point he will be divorced. I mean, the divorce rates in the U.S. are 50% right? He probably falls in the 50%.

What is it?
Morrowind Redux, a mod designed and developed by one man, released about a week ago. It rebalances all aspects of Morrowind, increasing the overall level of difficulty as an indirect result of the changes, but much more importantly, fixing broken aspects of the game (Training, Enchantment), enhancing cumbersome ones (Alchemy, Potions), entirely revamping others (Spellcasting, NPC Spellcasters), and improving many other aspects of the game. The mod also features 28 megs worth of graphic enhancements, ranging from vastly improved faces done by an Unreal skinner, to new (beautiful!) suits of armor and some weapons. Core gameplay changes are kept to a minimum, this is far from a monty haul modification.
There are far too many changes to list here, so go here for the readme: http://www.shackspace.com/~gauss@shackmail.com/readme.txt
Where is it?
Here: http://benchmarksims.com/morrowind/morrowind%20redux.zip
If you have Tribunal installed, you can also get this: http://benchmarksims.com/morrowind/morrowind%20redux%20(tribunal%20esp).zip
That contains a slightly updated .esp, which is compatible with Tribunal. Note that he has just begun work on Tribunal changes, so this is still primarily a pure Morrowind modification. Also, the Dark Brotherhood assassins from Tribunal will throw the early game money gain out of whack severely, since they are easy to defeat and drop armor that is disproportionately valuable.
Finally, here is a link to the thread on the Morrowind forums discussing this mod: http://makeashorterlink.com/?W5A7216C2
You MUST start a new game to play this mod, and it is highly likely that using other mods with it will NOT work due to the sweeping changes to all areas of the game.
Enjoy, I know I am :)

Is there anything else I could do to get more speed out of my system? At Xmas I plan on installing a 2nd 10 gig 5400rpm HDD just for a swap file off of the main drive, because I've heard that will improve performance. Also, once I have 768mb of ram, I want to disable virtual memory as I heard that was good as well. I've already followed Viper's tweak guide for XP, and I have a Ti4200 128mb Geforce 4.
What else do you guys recommend? Full specs in reply -->

I want to play a little DM, but there aren't any servers around with decent (sub 60) ping, and Terminal Services login to a W2K box won't allow DirectX/Sound to run.

I got my 9700 Pro working nicely, and I wanted to show it to my bro, since he's a CS nut. Some of the weapons looked pretty sweet, but I didn't notice much difference on the player models, and the M4 looked like a giant dildo launcher (I kid you not). Are there maybe some settings in the control panel I should check/uncheck to make it all look a bit better?
