Been out FOR A WHILE

I haven't posted in months. I have been waiting for Scattered Evil. I beat Hexen legit six times (can you ever get too much or Hexen). I have been extremely busy. I have been going to animation classes to work of Flash, I have also done Photoshop. I don't have Flash or Photoshop because the prices are outrageous. I am back, hope the Scattered Evil goes over well. It certainly looks like it is.

If you're still a student, look out for the Education version of Macromedia products (e.g. Flash), they are much cheaper.

Paint Shop Pro is a cheap alternative. My fave is PSP5 <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> (got it for $60 like)

PSP is the program I actually use to make the sprites for KMOD I think it's a cool program. <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Which version? 6 and 7 are evil (bad interface, slow and clunky, and a big memory hog and useless filters).

Mine is 4.14. Nice and simple.

I might be a Heretic, but I've been using these last couple of years Adobe PhotoShop LE (a kind of predecessor of PhotoShop elements, I got it in 1999) and MacroMedia FireWorks (3, 4 and since last month MX2004, though I haven't even started up the new version since install <!-- s:oops: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_redface.gif" alt=":oops:" title="Embarassed" /><!-- s:oops: -->). <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->

PS5 LE used to come with Maxtor 40gb HD's in late 1999 for free, and I have it <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> (Don't like it tho.)

That's because 40 gig HDDs did cost a little fortune back then. <!-- s:P --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s:P --> I got it also for kinda free, it was included as goodie on my Adobe PageMill CD (which cost maybe 150-200 bucks, don't remember, whereas PhotoShop LE was sold back then as standalone app for something like 70 bucks). I first used it on a Pentium MMX 166, and when I went to a P3-600 it suddenly became real fast. <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->

around 7 months ago when my comp died, I used a p100 for every little thing. Making big textures, modeling 2000 poly characters, working on sound, etc... back then PSLE shoud've been bundled with RAM since it was sky high then ($120 for a 64mb? /me dont think so)

Don't remember the prices, but I remember that I upgraded my mobo to the max possible 256 megs back then, no matter the price - my little P5-166 was in many things actually faster than those big P2-400 machines with the 64 megs (which is a joke in Win98/NT), of course it was also because I used SCSI which reduces CPU load for data read/write/transfer by ~90%. <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->

The 4th Class

I use Paintbrush and Irfanview combined to make not only graphics and textures, but independent bitmaps for some pretty cool slideshows. <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> <!-- s8) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cool.gif" alt="8)" title="Cool" /><!-- s8) -->

I don't want to hurt your feelings 4th Class, but I think there is something of a difference between the official Korax' Heritage logo and your Hexen episode's start screen... <!-- s:P --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s:P -->
