I really, really, really need some new (free) games!
Does anyone know of any good ones?

Preferably RPGs, but (most) other games are good too.
They need to be either compatible with WinXP or Ubuntu.

HELP CURE MY BORDEM (and get some rep in the process)! :p

FREE games nub.

It's not quite in your RPG market, but here's a good change-up game if you need a break from that genre:

Trackmania

Go to "downloads" and get TM Nations Forever, the free version. The free version has plenty to do, however, and supports online play. People design some crazy race maps, heh.
 

Tru_Power22

You can change this now in User CP.

Err... free games?

If you're looking for free games, I'm afraid you won't find many genuine 'free' games. [del]You could torrent some proper games[/del], but that's also known as piracy :( I recommend heading down to your games store and checking out the 'budget' sections, there are some amazing games for really low prices that have been labelled 'budget' (like evolva, startopia, original war etc...)

I don't really know of (m)any good free games (other than a few flash games from Kongregate and Armor Games :p) but of the games that Avaleirrra has listed that I've played, it is very hard to go wrong with those (although WoW certainly isn't cheap so I'd stray away from that unless you really want to burn some cash :D). Most (if not all) of those should be available in a video game shop as budget titles, so you could probably pick them up fairly cheaply.

CS:S would probably be my most recommended of that list since it'll keep you going for ages, I'm not sure what the multiplayer scene for CoD1 is like since I 'misplaced' the discs years ago :<

There's also the Unreal games. Depending on where abouts you are living, you should be able to pick it up for a very nice sum. I got the Anthology (which includes Unreal + Return to Na Pali, Unreal II, Unreal Tournament GOTY Edition and Unreal Tournament 2004 Editor's Choice Edition) for €15, so I can't imagine it being more expensive than 20 or 25 euro in other regions (which still isn't half bad since you'd get 4 fantastic games from it).

Please try to remain on the topic of Free, "Legally Free", Games, meaning you don't have to break piracy laws to get them.

Thanks,
Miz

Though I think your selection of Games, besides MMORPGs (Which you will just get addicted to and pay them for the expansion or membership, etc.) and Flash Games is kind of limited, but yet again I play old fashion PC Games and that is rarely so my opinion is probably limited.
 
General chit-chat
Help Users
  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
