Just use Bully's melee system. It's far superior to just about any melee system (minus say, a wrestling or MMA game) and it's years old now.

covers for songs that are better than the original.
narcolepsy replied to Jizzy's topic in Graphics, Media & Entertainment
Joe Cocker's version of The Beatles "With a little help from my friend". He made that song his own. -
All of these plans you guys have suck. I pay £10 a month for my sim and I get 250 mins of free calls, free calls to people on the same network, free texts, and truely free internet (NO RESTRICTIONS), tethering allowed afaik but i dont do that.

The frame rate issues look to be the way the video is encoded. Even at 720p it looks like garbage, which makes me think they forced it to 720p and probably actually recorded at maybe 480p.

You don't need dev kits for modding. Development kits are used to run unsigned code, so developers can just burn a copy (or ftp it over) and run the current build, which is possible on jtag units too. Most games have physics values in text files (on PC) so you generally only need special tools when it comes to replacing textures or models that are in a single file, like GTA San Andreas's .img files.

Our school got the shit of the shit too. There was an asian kid who came from a school on the other side of my city for stabbing a kid in the eye with a pencil, my school was the only one that would take him. The first day he got the shit beat out of him by a year 7 (he was in year 10) just so he wouldn't try to act tough here.

My school was really shitty at that time. Probably the worst in my city perhaps. There was once a riot that I think was race related. I missed it by about a few seconds because me and my buddies pushed in with the IT teacher to get through the line faster withour burgers and chocolate milk, then lied to the people who made sure you didn't have food with you when you were going outside that we were doing work in a classroom and came down to take our lunch back. Five seconds after we got through the doors there was a bunch of loud bangs (which were seemingly chairs being thrown) and a tonne of shouting. After all was said and done, a bunch of paki kids had fucked off home to get knives, a dinner lady was KO'd, the walls had marks all over them where chairs and tables and shit had been thrown and the year 7's got to go home 15 minutes early. The few times I actually did play football at break I sat in defense talking to a friend who was a keeper (and a good one at that) and when the ball came I'd boot it to the other side of the gras (it's basically a dirt field with all this red stones shit all over it) or slam into somebody. No rules in red gras football.

I had 3 fights in the entirity of secondary school (two were with teachers). I had more in my first school but generally that was against new kids who weren't really aware of who I was. I was in Year 7 for the first one which was against a small asian kid. I was always hanging around with what you'd class as the nerd kids because they had the same interests as me when one day in class he began shit talking one for no reason and threw a pen at my head. Now imagine a 5'3 kid who weighs roughly 120lbs jumping a table and head butting him before laying into him. That's me. I got in trouble for this one but he got the worst of the blame somehow. I didn't even get any shit even though it was a completely one sided fight. My second one was year 8, with a arrogant dickhead of a gym teacher. I NEVER did shit in gym because I could never be bothered (unless it was rounders or dodgeball, which I was surprisingly good at). Put bluntly one day the bottom set (my set) and the top set (aka the jocks) were put together to play football. As usual I didn't do shit and somebody passed the ball right to me and my buddy. We didn't want to do shit so we just stepped aside and let it roll to somebody behind us. Que douchebag gym teacher running over and giving us shit. My pal was pretty scared (he's the smaller geeky type) I really didn't care because it was just gym. During the course of him completely over reacting to us making a joke of a lesson that's a joke anyway he called me a retard. Big mistake. I fucking HATED that word, even when people werent saying it to me. At that point I ended up going into some kind of invulnerability rage mode, doing some kind of a spear and took him to the ground, this began a 15 minute long standoff where I somehow found my way into back mount and refused to let go (two assistants trying to pull me off) while half choking him out and laying punches into him when I could - the entire time this wannabe tough guy was sat with his hands protecting his face. I didn't get in trouble for this one either. It was very one sided and they sorta just swept it under the carpet despite the fact besides calling me a retard he hadn't done shit. Quite odd. The final time was with some foreign exchange teacher. He tried to tell me to do work and refused to have any of it when I showed him I'd completed it and was helping a buddy. Que him telling me to stand up and an argument, I musta got him wound up enough because he pushed me, I pushed him back and he went to the floor and got back up looking pissed. Nothing else actually came of it and this one never even left the classroom (besides this story) I did that with golf balls. We were told to aim for certain areas to get points (it wasn't just hit far as fuck), unfortunately about 50 feet beyond those were the windows of the Maths block, two windows got put through (one of which was by my ball) and our group didn't do golf again for the rest of the year. Not too bad really. Golf was a pain in the arse and we were doing it in december and we got to do dodgeball inside instead.

Does anyone here actually remember life without the internet?
narcolepsy replied to Qdeathstar's topic in General Discussion
Yeah actually. I got my first taste of a PC when I was 3 and after that I never actually had regular internet access until I was 6 or so. The time without it was dire. Mainly subsided by mega drive (which was basically all I did). That was the family PC and it was very poor. Probably a low end pentium 2 with 64 mb's of ram IF that. We had 25.6kb dial up for 5 years, and we enjoyed it. BT Openworld, free after 6PM so we never used it before then (we were very poor). Getting 256/64 broadband in 2005 was a god send. Runescape stopped fucking sucking. I still have the keyboard we used with it laying around somewhere, Every key had the decal worn off because it was that old. I remember the first website I ever used. Yahooligans, followed by Mamamedia - For the record that website hasn't changed a bit since 2002. There was a game on it (roblox) that I was obsessed with. Generally my first actually internet interest i'd say. I also used a website named Alfy which had nice stories with music. - Basically led to my ridiculously high reading age as it got into me into reading. My first website was around 2002 - A geocities one I made myself in notepad with a little help from some people online. I made my first forum in 2005 when I got my own PC with invision which taught me about as much as a free forum could about forum administration. It was a very early pentium 4 with 256 mb's of ram and a 80gb hard drive. Quite sophisticated to say it was my own PC. I had a Piczo website which generally pissed me off. I hate this era of "grab a template and make your shit". Mine was always better than the other peoples at school because I added my own (and html I pikied from places) I remember posting on forums right after 9/11 happened, very upsetting for me I'd say. I was very unsocialable as a child and many of my friends were online, and american so I kind of identified myself as one of them. Between 2002 and 2005 I seemed to backtrack.Up until then I'd tried to use good grammar as it was pretty important back then. In 2005 I did that horrible txt speak on MSN and forums. Partially the reason I got banned from the old forums in 2005. I remember my first hotmail account had 2005 in the name, despite being created in 2002. Maybe I'll add some more about my early online exploits later. -
GTA V screenshots re-made in GTA San Andreas!
narcolepsy replied to Whelan's topic in GTA 5 Pre-Release Discussion (Closed)
I still like them. I think GTA IV's were an eyesore. -
112ms isn't bad at all. Yeah it isn't high but It's usable. Try playing a game over wireless where you get 250+ ping. Terrible.
-
I kinda feel bad to kill the joke but lower ping is better. Ping is measured in ms (milliseconds) and i guess the simplest way to put it is the higher ping = the longer it takes for the game to shoot your gun or react to your input. It causes lag.

If you think spending £600 now = a computer useless next year you're out of your mind. Oh and top dollar doesn't always get you the best bang for your buck. A card could be the newest released but could be total junk. The 480 was a $499 card but while being a competent card had ridiculous temperatures.

I wouldn't go as far as heroin. I definitely think pot should be legalized though. I think there wouldn't be an issue with overcrowded jails and less money wasted.

I know right? Fuck all those dying patients who use pot as a pain killer and the people who use it for (but not limited to) "amelioration of nausea and vomiting, stimulation of hunger in chemotherapy and AIDS patients, lowered intraocular eye pressure (shown to be effective for treating glaucoma), as well as gastrointestinal illness."
