People forget the GNOME and KDE applications... The *original* modern versions of this, of which Apple "borrowed" for OSX. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GDesklets http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuperKaramba The original Mac "Desk Ornaments" were so limited in scope that they are not...

Looks ATI-related. I used to have all sorts of similar problems with games on ATI cards running on Linux when they used GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object. However, I've found that many Linux game ports (including those by some rather reputable coders) are so nVidia-centric that VBO breaks between nVidia d...

Re: Save games and health bars?

Is it deliberate that there is no way to save a game and no way to tell how "healthy" you or the other guys are? The game is "saved" when you advance to the next area. I don't think it saves in the demo. Your character's condition is your "health bar" in a sense. If he...

I've found that, after a lot of practice, it simply works out best to let him attack first, and then counter and just kick him around a bit. After you get pretty good at it, countering wolves becomes pretty easy.

Sorry, I have been misunderstood but it's my fault, allow me to clarify. I meant nobody makes builds of their software, for the PPC architecture and Linux OS, except of course for a very few linux distros(I run Ubuntu). LGP does with many of their games: http://linuxgamepublishing.com/ Ballistics i...

I figured I should revive this topic. Those wolves can be fun to fight and I'd like to share more technique in beating them. I find that it's best to just *never* slow down. Sweep his feet and then juggle him, with a kick, or kick him in the crotch when he's down. Follow him to wherever he'll get up...
