First thing I learned was: never use localised tools. For some reason the Italian version of Worldcraft was bugged and I couldn't load textures in the browser (or maybe when I applied one to a face, the editor would crash).

I had a complete building modeled in white in two months, then I inherited my dad's 33.6K modem and I found out my scale was all wrong and I couldn't model plants with foliage in Worldcraft

It took me longer than I'd want to admit to figure out that you needed origin brushes for rotating objects. But this was in a time before internets

And those tutorials that would show you to make 2-3 origin brushes for a single door, like if you needed that to make it like a real door for it to work?

Quote from Minos

Started watching Fringe, still on the fence about this one. Does it get pretty crazy and imaginative or is this just a sci-fi CSI?

As far as I can remember, it gets there in Season 2.It's a show rewarding on the long run, I hope you'll stick to it.

Man On A Ledge

And, man, the thief girl is sexy... i mean, "off the chart" sexy.

Congrats, both maps looks great!

*fixed (as long as)

Damn cheap website managers!

Since I had never seen it, it just seemed the right occasion to watch Born On The Fourth Of July last night

the things that happen around soldiers are just revolting.

Woa, how does this pic cause an "hall of mirrors" effect in my browser?

So I had nothing in the pipeline yesterday, so I got and watched the first 3 episodes of New Girl Season 2, which were quite amusing.

I go to bed all giggly and then... I had a bad dream in which my brother in-law had died, WTF??

...and Bruce has a small part in this one.

Wasn't Looper good? I still have to see it. Otherwise i'd say Grindhouse or Lucky Number Slevin. Btw for me also Die Hard 4.0 was entertaining.

Maybe it's premium because it is more usable?

I dunno, you know better about this stuff

Not actually something i'm playing, but it's not worth to open a dedicated thread.

On facebook this morning, IGN posted they are giving away Plants VS Zombies for iOS

you can get both.

The Cold Light Of Day – one of those dumb movies that you forget about when you turn off the TV

I don't mean the article is old, but just feels like it.

Agree that what they did showed weakness, but it was "that way or the highway"... with projected sales just above the level of the Kin phones probably.

On Mattrick leaving, i think that was a must, i mean: he's the face of the original "to the future!" vision, to stay wouldn't have been credible either.

Plus, after this Waterloo he probably got some heat from Ballmer (i've been reading in the past months he's been pushing away high-level staff since he was in charge).

With the reversal of MS policy, this seems anachronistic already; makes me think "yeah, that sums up why printed press is going out".

It also feels like flat-out marketing.

Congrats on touching the home base! [Blocked Image: http://forum.multiplayer.it/images/faccine/birra.gif]

CGSociety spammed this on facebook, maybe it can turn to be useful for some of you:

Cliffy @ MS could be interesting, but right now i'd prefear seeing him doing his own thing.

Pandorum is good stuff. One has just to watch it without expectations.

Tonight I'll be watching The Cold Light Of Day

I was just reading that and wandering if it was better to spam here or the Zynga topic

holiestcows: are the A & B signs visible from T spawn? There are so many smokestacks that seem they could be covered. Keep it going.
