Yo waz up my new homies...Decided to drop by your hood...Ok ill drop the ghetto language, but hey it great to be in a forum again. And i guess it would not be formal for me to join a forum and not have any questions so here are my first two questions....

I just reinstalled FS2 on my computer. For some reason i am having sound difficulties.  The sound usually comes out messed up as in the sound are distorted and sometimes it crackles I have used both directsound and EAX to no avail.  I have a Sound Blaster Audigy and Klipsch 4.1's as my sound setup so anyone who could help would be my new savior.


My second question goes back to history.  I have just downloaded the freespace bible and i must say that i was impressed by it but something has caught my attention.  During the Terran Vasudan war it says that both races were beating each other up and no one was winning.. Does that mean that their tech was equal?  Whos tech is more advanced Terran or Vasudan?

Its your sound card....
i heard that many of the new Audigy cards have the same problem and you should send it back to Creative for the new version

Human and vasudan tech was roughly equal. IIRC the Terrans had better weapons while the vasudans had better engines. The result was a stand still. Neither side could get an upper hand.

It's almost exactly what Karajorma said.  Their ships are at least 10-15 m/s faster than Terrans.  The Vasudans also have a much better destroyer (Typhon[better armor]).  But Terrans have way better weaponry, the Interceptor is example of both races tech.  It's engines were made by Vasudans (that's why it's so freaking fast), and it's warhead was made by Terrans.  BTW, what does IIRC mean?

IIRC = If I Remember Correctly

AFAIK = As Far As I Know

Those are the two I use most often so I thought it better to mention both :)

Exits are located to the rear and left in case of emergency and shotguns are located under the seats :D.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
