awesome

even better, the same goes for the one way lan...

Some extra games that could be run on "Spare Parts" PCs - I've run these on a K6-2 450 w/ GF2+256MB before.

Warzone 2100 - can take a while, AI not bad either if enabled
CnC Tiberium Sun/Fire Storm
Total Annihilation
Recoil - futuristic tank combat if you don't know it.
Quake 2 - set some servers up from the higher end machines and lead teams through the single player story in co-op mode or FFA/CTF MP
Homeworld/HW:Cataclysm
HL-Original: Team Fortress

Warzone need a CD to play but isn't too fussed about authenticity, Total Annihilation can setup MP Spawns to play off.

Dammit, Douple post.

Nice on the TA Flirkann.

Havn't played it in years though.

You got any expansions to go with that?

yar..

a new date would be great.

i ran into Gavin friday, he said he wasnt planning anything until school holidays (around 4.5 weeks away) ill shoot him an email from work on monday and see if we cant sort something out.

perhaps we can meet up over at the OWL location this time, and save a few $$ on room hire.. it has plenty of space, and facilities.

anyone opposed to this idea? as gaving noted a struggle in the cost of the library for the day. we basically need 10 peope to turn up just to make it worthwhile.

/tAK

sounds good to me

TA Expansions - nah, pre HL2 purchase, only gets a run every now and then when my step-bro comes over to smack some AI

i would of been able to get more people to come to the lan but i was never given the date writen down, i was told like a month or 2 b4 hand. LAN DING needs to b more advertised then it already is for a betta turn out. Having the net hooked up would get people aswell(specially broadband), and a PROPER SERVER! THAT ISNT PLUGED INTO A OUTLET THAT KEEPS TRIPPING!

i use to run os-lan and we managed to atleast get 10 people at $10 a head (midway point hall), but my point being was the hall was book on a date that was good for every1 else and they were given more notice.

that sounds like i have bitch all that i just said but im not, just saying what needs to happen to make lan ding a bit betta

if u have trobal getting cash for the library ,, i heard it is ony 35 a room i can pay all of it or half what ever
i just borght some edimension wireless 3d glasses they come this week , hmm

thats another thing some of my mates wnt goto the lan because its at a library

lol, but its warm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, first lan i've been to that is

yeah, a lot of people stereo type the places.

they most likely think that we will be in amongst the books n such.
perhaps we need to get a nice overall photo of the room itself next LAN.

oh, and chris, be sure to wright a review in the computer techs talk section about those glasses... ive always thought they looked cool, but never wanted to fork out the cash for them.

hmm... I never did want to get those things... but oh well. I'll take a gander none the less.

Well, we can always take a camera and show photos of the place. Ppl question us having the OWL at a church but damn, place is huge, and there's a full kitchen.

righto then.. lets organise a date now.
ill shoot gav an email just after this is posted.

and we will deliberate a little. i think he was aiming at some time this school holidays, which should work out well.. thats in around 4 weeks...

i will get back to all with a response (actually, i direct him to this thread.. and get him to sign up)
