    Left 4 Dead

    Am I the only one playing this awesome, unbridled undead slaughtering game? It's just so much fun, plain and simple. The co-op is great, the versus mode is stellar, one of the best games to come out in a while. The fact that it's never the same twice, even if you played the same level on the...

    The good, little things in life

    Inspired by the annoyances thread, how about little things that make you happy. Your dog being excited to see you even though you've been gone all of forty five seconds to get the mail. A hug from your significant other. Channel surfing and finding an awesome episode of your favorite show on...

    I cannot reenter properly.

    I've read concepts for atmospheric reentry, and I am completely incapable of putting the stupid thing on the ground where I want it. I can get it on the ground no problem. It's the location that I can't solve. I'm using BaseSync and AeroBrake. What tends to happen is I'll either overshoot or...

    Your favorite old games!

    For the sake of fun, let's just say "old" can mean anything from the N64/Playstation 1 days backwards. Nothing newer than that. And here's a few of mine. Computer: (Dosbox is your friend.) The Police Quest series. Sierra adventures were excellent. Life and Death 2: The Brain. This game is...

    Any Motorcyclists?

    Specifically, sportbikes? I'm looking into getting in to riding, but the only two wheeled vehicle I've ever ridden was a bicycle. I'm looking at the Kawasaki Ninja 250R, since it's small, amazingly inexpensive, and not so powerful that if I lay it down I'm roadkill. (Not anymore so than another...

    Delta II-GeoEye 1

    Through a bunch of mixed messages, it appears that it will launch today. Unless I'm wrong, then it'll be tomorrow. (I think.) In any case, it's going to launch soon. Countdown clock found here, but I'm unsure if I'm reading it right. Any help is appreciated.

    Project The "Small Orbital Craft" Project

    Based on discussion in this thread, I've decided to try to make this as my first project. Keep in mind that this will probably evolve a lot over time. A few factors I'm concerned with: Size: A lot to put in a very small space. Maybe increase size while keeping a one-seat configuration...

    My first legit scenario editor free rendezvous and docking.

    I'm a miserable pilot. If autopilot can't help me, I'm usually out of luck. So, I'd taken a DG-IV, used the launch autopilot to just put it in orbit. (I can do that part manually, but it's a total butchering of how it's really done.) Using the plane alignment, I lined up with the ISS. So far, so...

    A question about developing.

    Hi, I'm Cobalt. I'll start off by saying I'm a miserable pilot in Orbiter, and LEO is about all I'm good for. Math was never my strong point, though I have a mediocre understanding of the physics involved. I'm intrigued by the idea of developing addons, but there's a slight setback. I haven't...
