  1. I think he means what it says when you pick up the green...in that respect.
  2. If you are able to see an active connection to the zones at the main menu, then you may simply need to change your name... make sure that it starts with a letter, not a symbol (like: )(*- etc)
  3. Hit stealth at the same time you release a decoy, it will improve effectiveness 300% It also helps to be off the enemy's screen when you do this, but if you are being chased by a group, usually you can split them up with this technique.
  4. I did this years ago, to mimic SVS prox on all mines and bombs... The final images were 1600x1200 (without lvl4 rings.)
  5. Call it whatever you want, i would assume that if you were to use the code i posted, that you would research it just a tad and learn how to customize it to your needs.
  6. php: header("Content-Type: application/force-download"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="myfile.abc"");
  7. There is a kit for the PS2 for linux, also. The basic purpose is for custom game design. http://www.us.playstation.com/peripherals....x?id=SCPH-97047
  8. If a map editor changes the .lvl format to do as you ask...then it will become an invalid map in the game. So thats an impossibility. I do know that you can use javascript to make links into a "download" link instead of just a direct link to the file... maybe try that option. edit: Code to do this, found here. http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scrip...d=2183&lngWId=2
  9. the answer is in the other post, read Akai's code there.
  10. unfortunately, I don't know the answer to that 8( I *think* I heard once, that continuum changes ports for security reasons, but I've never actually looked into it. Most common answer to people in similar situations as your (dormatories, university labs, libraries, etc) is that the network to which those computers are connected is specifically designed to prevent gaming, and so there is no workaround. You could try to get the network admin to setup a socks5 proxy for you or to fix this problem for you, but I assume that if you were able to get the help of a network admin, you probably wouldn't be here in the first place... Sorry for the bad news!
  11. It would basically be a 'nix client, which has been in the spotlight a couple of times, but has never been completed and released. Try using a Windows emulator... continuum shouldn't be too heavy on the CPU to work like this.
  12. Actually, that would show you the port that the server is using, not continuum. He needs to know the local ports to use in order to forward them through a local intranet/router... The subgame(server) ports are irrelevant for this.

    it is because your name starts with a Symbol. Names cannot start with (most) symbols, such as: {
  14. bmps are normally 8 bit or 32 bit. If you are playing in 16 bit color mode, your image editing prgram might not like 16 bit bmp's
  15. Locked: this thread is considered resolved (it was resolved by the time Akai moved it.) If you require additional !@#$%^&*istance with the popup problem, please start a new thread with any additional info you have gained, and we will happily offer !@#$%^&*istance.

  17. Only if you are on a P120 with dialup on a 33.6.
  18. winamp v2.72 runs way smoother than v3.x I'm on an athlon 1Ghz with 384 PC133 RAM and a Radeon 7200 and I get minimal performance decreases, even during song changes. Without winamp playing: 230 fps, with winamp: 220. The only catch to this is VBR mp3's. Variablt bit rate mp3's alwaays chug my machine when playing, but that is to be expected. There is no reason to use VBR encoding anyway, in this day and age of broadband connections. FYI, listening to a CD shouldn't hurt perforance hardly at all, so you may consider that option too.

    Banner's

    The continuum editor serves its purpose better than paint. Take advantage of the ez tools you are given.

    If you want to go that route, don't forget to apply the SS 256 color palette, and to save it as an 8 bit image. I didn't mention that option for a reason, I figured it was a more advanced topic which could simply cause confusion. So, Trunks, if this last option confuses you, don't worry about it, it won't yield better results than the built in banner editor in Continuum, it's just another (more difficult) way of making a banner.

    Banner's

    There are a few ways to have banners. 1) Make your own. From the main menu of continuum, hit CTRL E, which will bring up a banner editor where you can draw them. 2) Download banners from subspacedownloads.com. http://www.subspacedownloads.com/?id=banners If you have decided to download banners, you must place the .bmp files (the format of banners) into your Continuum/Banners/ directory. In order to set a banner in the game, make sure you are in spectator mode (ESC S) and then hit ESC B. This will bring up a window which lists all your banners. If you have a LOT of banners (for example you download a lot from subspacedownloads.com) then it will take a while for this screen to appear, and depending on the power of your computer, may appear to freeze your computer. If this happens you may wish to move some of the banners to a different directory, while leaving a smaller amount in the /banners directory.
  22. Oddly, when you have a username which starts with a character that is NOT alphanumeric (letters or numbers) then you receive a "Connection to Server lost" message. If you repeatedly receive this message and are sure that you are able to ping the zone just fine, then chances are that you need to adjust the login name in your profile (NOT the profile name, because it has no effect on logging into a server.) http://www.ssforum.net/viewtopic.php?t=651
  23. JC, you beat my post because I had to take my pizza out of the oven 8( I was almost through with it by then too.
  24. trained...the 3 programs you just mentioned all have 3 entirely different purposes. Ad-aware detects and removes spyware (cookies, registry settings, and apps that get installed and cause popups and report web usage statistics to marketing companies who then then sell it) Norton is an anti-virus which detects and removes virii (usually embedded in untrustworthy software or files on P2P networks) Zone Alarm is a software firewall which limits access to and from the internet based on permissions for each program (which you set in the zone alarm app.) It also allows access to and from ports on your local machine via the same. If you are entirely paranoid, you can run all 3 of these side by side, because the overlap of what each does, with respect to the others, is probably about 5%) They all serve their own purpose.
  25. if it REALLY bothers you...unplug your PC/case speaker from the mobo
