  1. Americans Friendly fire (Iraq & Afghanistan) :

     

    -In the Battle of Nasiriyah, two U.S. Air Force A-10 jets mistook an American force of AAV's and infantry for an Iraqi armored column, and bombed and strafed it. Six U.S. Marines were killed.

  2. American friendly fire is perhaps the most tragic of these such as in Iraq; you managed to hit a British tank with British soldiers wearing British gear, I also think they had a British flag but that might of been the news embellishing stuff.

     

    I agree, they killed at least 7 british soldier in Iraq, and about 6 in Afghanistan :rolleyes:.

  3. Trust me I could come up with a much larger list for my UK. But I won't, less time thinking of Blundering Blunket and 2 jags the better.

     

    Maybe limiting American media and political nosiness would increase the reputation, considering most of that list fits under those catagories.

     

    Thanks for finally clarifying that bit of american history.

     

    If you do want a list of the UK heres an attempt:

    2 jags Presscot (throws a mean punch though)

    Blundering Blunket

    Political Nosiness

    Trying to turn natural disasters into PR goldmines (probably true of most governments though)

    Tony Blair the liar

    David Cameron the bandwagon jumper

    PM Brown who doesn't really seem to do anything in public

    The Sun

    BNP (think nazis mixed with a dose of confederacy) as a whole

    TV

    the green movements

     

    and so on and so forth

    What the hell do you have against The Sun :verymad:

    And yes Blair suck, but bush is really mentally injured, and Brown is FAR better than obama :down:

  4. A staff animation for when you are walking you use it as somewhat of a walking stick, or as if you were hiking. (I do not claim credit for this suggestion. Another person made it.)

     

    .

    Hmm I don't know if it would be really "realistic"......... I will see about it later.

     

    Now then. I had one more suggestion which has slipped my mind. I'll post it when I remember.

    Feel free :wink:

  5. Hi, It's been a while since i reported any progress. But now i am so don't worry I'll get this one finished.

     

    Today I'll be showing you two in-game screenshots. The armor is not yet usable but i made a static "statue" to test the texturing.

    Before i'll go to the acctual rigging, i'll fix the normal maps some more, but for now, this is what it looks like:

     

     

     

    Please do tell me what do you think of it, constructive criticism is welcome! :thanks:

    Nice :thumbsup:

    Old stance I made

     

    Hmm for those who are interested in this project, I would advise you to come to the OblivionReanimated threads on bethsoft, or to the OblivionReanimated official site.

    Obviously, I don't update this one often, you definitely missed some WIPs.

     

    OblivionReAnimated official website!

  7. It is a typo.
    When I bought a Radeon HD 4870 video card, a cardboard paper was inside with a CDKey printed on it saying that I can have this game called Dirt2 if I signed up on Steam and downloaded it.

     

    I don't really like Steam and if it wasn't for my wife's interest in playing it (after seeing a YouTube video), I would have just chunked the card in the trash.

     

    Anyone interested in how well the HD 4870 does based on a range of game, a range of CPUs and whether or not it is in crossfire mode with another card will find this article VERY interesting.

     

    Radeon HD 4870 CPU Scaling

     

    Anyone have suggestions for LCD monitors that work well for gaming?

     

    The ideal situation would be one where I can get 3 of them (e.g. < $400 each) that work well with the ATI Radeon HD 4870 video card (e.g. DisplayPort technology)

     

    You made the same typos in other threads too :P

  8. I use HGEC and my characters extremely rarely ever wear skimpy clothes. I do like to dress them in bathing suits for swimming and shorts and short skirts when in summer climates, but I use enhanced weather and Dalls Bruma so I have a lot of wintry cold places where they need to dress warmly.

    Yes, but the problem is that 90/100 of clothes made for HGEC are "skimpy" :confused:

  9. Set Adult filter to on, beside according to your profile you aren't even old enough to set it off, and if you come across a adult suff (while your filter is on), report it to the admin or mods.

     

    I kinda agree with you.............enough is enough........Tesnexus got more bikini than medieval armour :rolleyes:
