| 08:44.23 | Thorarin | Hmm, just goes to show that addon popularity has very little to do with programming proficiency :P |

| 09:17.38 | Baanano | hi |
| 09:42.58 | Wild|work | i've been a bad boy, i installed the free trial of Tera :) |
| 09:44.53 | Wild|work | first impressions were actually really good. it feels really solid and has some interesting combat mechanics |
| 09:47.13 | Wild|work | but the thing that struck me the most was how much smoother UE3 runs on my hardware than Rift :( |
| 09:53.36 | Thorarin | UE3? Unreal Engine? |
| 09:54.11 | Thorarin | Didn't know it ran on that... |
| 09:54.29 | Thorarin | Nice though, because MMORPG engines have traditionally sucked balls :P |
| 09:56.14 | Thorarin | I remember Zorba mentioning that MMOs have some specific requirements that make them perform less, but all I can think of is some more UI that's not exactly rocked science |
| 09:56.23 | Thorarin | rocket* 0.o |
| 10:05.37 | Wild|work | i think the problem MMOs have with graphics is not being able to constrain how many units will appear on screen at one time |
| 10:07.59 | Wild|work | but yep, it is really noticeable that Unreal Engine seems to do a much better job of drawing stuff then GameBryo+ScaleForm, for whatever reason, while looking just as good |
| 10:13.28 | Wild|work | on the negative side, Tera does include a race of Japanese anime schoolgirls with bunny ears in mini-skirts, and I dread to think who they are intended to appeal to ;) |
| 10:48.56 | Thorarin | hehe |
| 10:49.23 | Thorarin | Maybe they don't use Flash = problem solved tbh :P |
| 10:51.51 | Wild|work | i tend to agree |
| 10:54.28 | Wild|work | ages ago, i had something that wrote FPS out to the console every second. turning off the entire UI seemed to make quite a significant improvement. i'm not sure if that's still the case, as that was back before improvements were made |
| 11:17.27 | Thorarin | I never checked tbh, but you can see current FPS with FRAPS for example |
| 11:18.19 | Thorarin | Recently when it was very hot, I tuned down my graphics card down to the minimum to make it produce a little less heat |
| 11:18.36 | Thorarin | For most of RIFT's gameplay it didn't even matter at all |
| 11:19.10 | Thorarin | In fact, FPS went UP when I tuned it down a few notches.. that just seems so wrong :P |
| 12:05.47 | Wild|work | yep, Rift's FPS has always been a bit of a mystery to me - my machine is definitely CPU bound far more than GPU bound, and I have absolutely no idea what Rift is doing to completely max out both cores |
| 12:06.30 | Wild|work | it's a great game, but there is definitely something not quite right somewhere under the covers |

| 18:53.37 | Imhothar_ | great, a WWII bomb found like 3km from here |
| 18:53.47 | Imhothar_ | Made in the USA |
| 18:53.57 | Imhothar_ | and din't blow up when meant to... |
| 18:55.16 | Baanano | is there any danger for it to activate now? |
| 18:55.29 | Imhothar | it's a miracle it didn't blow up aldready |
| 18:55.38 | Imhothar | it's one of those that could go boom anytime |
| 18:56.26 | Imhothar | 259kg bomb with a chemical delay action trigger |
| 18:56.29 | Imhothar | 250 |
| 18:56.59 | Imhothar | impossible to disarm so they have to blow it up |
| 18:57.48 | Thorarin | They found one in the middle of our train station a few years ago :S |
| 18:57.56 | Baanano | and which radius will it affect? |
| 18:58.01 | Imhothar | this one is at a construction site |
| 18:58.14 | Thorarin | Yeah construction was going on at train station too :) |
| 18:58.20 | Imhothar | dunno, 300m is completely evacuated, extended danger zone 1000m |
| 18:58.40 | Imhothar | it was just 1m below one of the most popular pubs in Munich, the Schwabinger 7 |
| 18:59.02 | Thorarin | Ouch :P |
| 18:59.06 | Imhothar | they guy said "we were'nt partying enough" |
| 18:59.54 | Baanano | they found an italian one here earlier this month, but it could be moved safely to an unpopulated area before exploding it |
| 19:00.02 | Imhothar | it's assumed there to be about 2500 more bombs in Munich alone |
| 19:00.11 | Baanano | guess that one can't be moved safely, can it? |
| 19:00.51 | Imhothar | nope, same bomb modell killed 3 guys in 2010 when they were just trying to move it up a little |
| 19:01.26 | Imhothar | those chemical triggers are extremely unstable and they have a disarm protection |
| 19:07.13 | Baanano | is Munich the right name for the city? we call the city Munich in spanish too, but sometimes it's named as Munchen, what's the difference? are they the same? |
| 19:15.27 | Imhothar | München is the German name |
| 19:17.20 | Baanano | k, thanks imhothar, i've had that doubt for some years |
| 19:44.03 | Imhothar | ZorbaTHut I think I found the issue with the performance warning on right-click |
| 19:44.24 | Imhothar | it shows up when right clicking artifacts and tha rtifact window takes too long to load |
| 19:44.36 | Imhothar | or to load the artifact set |
| 19:45.48 | Imhothar | or, if you already own the artifact item, i.e. you can't add it to any set |
| 19:46.14 | Imhothar | but that might actually just be an illusion |
| 19:54.37 | Imhothar | wow I think I just heard the explosion |
| 19:54.58 | Noshei | nice |
| 19:56.48 | Imhothar | and that was 3km away |
| 20:00.11 | Imhothar | and now something's burning |
