[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="Entropy Stew"]Killing rats has not been so fun since Fallout. Punching the dead ones results in <i>jiggling</i>. Fucking hell, where is the screenshot button. WHERE?[/quote] I heard that you need ... shit, what's that little 3D performance program called? GRAPS? GRIPS? Anyway, I read that you need that installed to take screenshots because the game otherwise gives you no method. A stunning decision which is negatively affecting the chances of a full Caltrops review. The use of the zombie in the first board was brilliant - I kept expecting another one, and I credit them for not turning it into a Thief level. It's very smooth, too. I expected that I'd have to invest in another gig of RAM, but I'm at 1280x1024 with 4x AA just fine. Do you know what "HDR" is supposed to do? That made things a little choppy, but my <a href="http://www.caltrops.com/pointy.php?action=viewPost&pid=10750">lousy CRT</a> did not display any real graphics difference. (Creexul found my Morrowind vs Daggerfall post on webarchive. I'd like to say that after I installed a "companion" mod that had a badass black guy kick the shit out of almost everything I encountered that I officially changed my position on Daggerfall vs Morrowind. I now think Morrowind is more fun. Having a bodyguard really makes the thief classes more enjoyable. I don't care that I had to mod it in.) the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey! [/quote]
