| 00:09.12 | Patlabor221 | get it to work amathis ? |
| 00:11.12 | DTRemenak | amathis: I have the problem with severe blinking on native (non-SDL) builds when running full-screen, also - SuSE 9.1 |
| 00:11.31 | DTRemenak | not sure why |
| 00:11.53 | trepan | DTRemenak: you have pulsate depth set too high? |
| 00:12.06 | DTRemenak | trepan: no, no, not that blinking |
| 00:12.11 | DTRemenak | the whole screen flashes |
| 00:12.20 | Patlabor221 | like the flip is jacked? |
| 00:12.32 | DTRemenak | yeah, that could be |
| 00:12.39 | trepan | DTRemenak: was just messin' with ya ;) |
| 00:13.23 | DTRemenak | trepan: I thought so - I laughed at it, and then thought "but what if he's serious..." |
| 00:14.16 | Patlabor221 | I thought he mistranlated "refresh rate" |
| 00:14.22 | trepan | if you ever catch me saying something that stupid that isn't facecious, I give you permission (in advance), to beat the life out of me |
| 00:14.38 | Patlabor221 | sweeet |
| 00:14.45 | DTRemenak | hehe :) |
| 00:15.12 | trepan | Patlabor221: not you, DTRemenak. I guessing you're the type that might jump the gun =) |
| 00:15.33 | trepan | (talking to the man with the bat in his hands..) |
| 00:15.49 | Patlabor221 | me!?!?!?! never :) |
| 00:16.00 | Patlabor221 | I've named the bat "mr. thumpy" |
| 00:16.12 | DTRemenak | trepan: I usually give people the benefit of the doubt, and go for "miscommunication" rather than "stupid". I'll keep that in mind, though... ;) |
| 00:16.36 | trepan | DTRemenak: fair nuff' ;) |
| 00:17.30 | trepan | don't all speak up at once |
| 00:17.57 | trepan | yeah, you, the guy with the raised bat, how about you? =) |
| 00:18.19 | Patlabor221 | ot |
| 00:18.25 | Patlabor221 | it's not raised |
| 00:18.35 | Patlabor221 | it's in it's velvet case |
| 00:18.53 | Patlabor221 | get rid of the stencel |
| 00:19.11 | Patlabor221 | precompute all the geometry into lists |
| 00:19.23 | Patlabor221 | or textures |
| 00:19.25 | trepan | Patlabor221: pre-render into a set of textures |
| 00:19.27 | Patlabor221 | that would be even better |
| 00:19.52 | Patlabor221 | simplest thign would be remove the glCopyPixels |
| 00:19.56 | Patlabor221 | that stuff is SLOW |
| 00:20.59 | trepan | anyways, I'd do it, but i've got a decent sized list i've got to cut through first |
| 00:23.53 | trepan | Patlabor221: glCopyPixels() appears to only be used if BZDB's diplayZoom isn't 1 |
| 00:23.59 | Patlabor221 | still |
| 00:24.01 | Patlabor221 | it's SUCKY |
| 00:24.13 | Patlabor221 | that dosn't even increase resoultion |
| 00:24.16 | Patlabor221 | just makes it biger |
| 00:24.18 | Noodleman | SUCKY SUCKY SUCKY! |
| 00:25.43 | trepan | Patlabor221: no-one uses it, i don't imagine, so it's of no concern |

| 01:01.02 | amathis | Patlabor221, I was off riding my bike.. |
| 01:01.08 | amathis | Patlabor221, it is still not working.. |

| 02:36.14 | Patlabor221 | I am so tempted to remove the Servers: Policing forum |
| 02:36.22 | Patlabor221 | and just have people take it up with admins |

| 02:43.43 | JBdiGriz | The various servers are having problems right now. People are claiming to be from babel and DOS'ing hepcat. |
| 02:44.53 | Patlabor221 | odd |
| 02:46.00 | orange | I heard some also claiming to be from gamesunited |
| 02:46.01 | JBdiGriz | It seems to be the current rage to claim to be from a different server and act like an a$$ |
| 02:46.13 | learner | i'm from gamesunited |
| 02:46.26 | orange | I don't think anyone believed them |
| 02:46.43 | Patlabor221 | how can you be "from" a server? |
| 02:46.44 | JBdiGriz | several people did believe them. I had to correct their impressions. |
| 02:47.04 | learner | rage against the machine |
| 02:47.16 | learner | rage rage against the dying of the light |
| 02:47.25 | Nidhoggr | :) |
| 02:47.30 | JBdiGriz | Patlabor221: That doesn't seem to be a major impediment to people's beliefs |
| 02:47.47 | Patlabor221 | humans are st00pidz |
| 02:47.48 | orange | frankly I think we should take it up in the servers: policing forum |
