  1. Here are the rest of the options you can play with. Adding the bracketed commands as you would above.

    [as-4lane] Play with 4 lanes

    [as-monoonly] Mono characters required

    [as-everybodymono] All characters have only 2 block colors

    [as-lessgrey] Mono characters have less grey blocks

    [as-allgrey] Mono all greys. Scores start at 1000 and go down with each hit.

    [as-nogrey] Mono characters have no grey blocks

    [as-monoptX] Base points for Mono characters (default 3)

    [as-nostlth] Remove Stealth and cumulative hit bonuses

    [as-swind] Sidewinder camera mode

    [as-bankcam] Banking camera mode

    [as-first] First-person camera mode

    [as-caterp] Big strings of blocks instead of only solo blocks

    [as-mszX] Minimimum match size (number for X)

    [as-wbX] Percentage of white/black blocks

    [as-mtX] Match collection ticks (default 10-25)

    [as-prowsX] Puzzle row count (0-8)

    [as-hidepuz] Play with an invisible puzzle grid

    It's not required, but to have a better chance of finding populated scoreboards for your custom modes follow the conventions set in the examples:

    -Put spaces between the brackets.

    -Keep your keywords in the order listed above. If you want to use both "[as-everybodymono]" and "[as-caterp]", make "[as-everybodymono]" the first one since it is higher up on the list.

  2. dosbox on w7...? there's a point where retro gaming just requires it's own crap-puter. get an old laptop and put 98se on it =)

    Haha, that's what I usually do. It's just that when I bought the id collection on steam it came it all of their games, including wolfenstein 3d, the original quake and doom.

    I was amused to find out they just gave me rom dumps and a copy of dosbox that launches from steam for them. Sadly enough, I've been playing the original doom more than any of the new games I have including fallout 3 and left 4 dead. Interestingly vista ran dos games with no issues, 7 just has flickering screens for them.

  3. It seems to have fixed itself oddly enough, meaning that all the games that I really want to play on here work. Still seems to have trouble with things running in dosbox but that's no big deal.

  4. steam doesn't play well with w7, as far as i've seen.

    I'm starting to think it's more with the video driver libraries in 7 so far, many of my steam games run as well or sometimes better than when I was on vista with them, but there are the odd games that seem to have rendering problems that were never there before. Lot's of flickering screens, even xbmc seems to have issues with it which is disappointing, xbmc is my preferred media center.

    It's also still in beta though, so for all I know it'll be fixed by the time win7 goes gold.

  5. Audiosurf is alright, it's fun in small doses for me but you'll like it more with the more diverse music you have. Some music is crazy in it, I tried some of my own songs in it which was fun, even more fun to realise other people had played them too!

    Seeing what obscure game covers/mixes other people have played is a game in itself, as is dethroning people on each one. Finding out people have been playing your music must have been a surreal experience.

  6. Honestly, if I'm just going for sheer fun I play audiosurf. It's as mindlessly fun as you want it to be and it works with whatever music you have on your computer(though the flac support is flaky). Also, trippiest visuals I've seen lately. It's like wipeout meets rez.

  7. Me and my roomie got UT3 working on our 7 64-bit beta's. What's the problem you're having?

    Tends to crash within the first few minutes of a match, been fiddling with compatibility and it hasn't done much good thus far. It's possible that it could be steam messing with it as it occasionally does with third party games.

    I'll have to keep playing around with it.

  8. Have to say I'm liking 7 so far, might actually hold off on going completely linux and leave it dual booted like I normally do. Probably has something to do with it feeling a lot like kde.

    Gives me a few issues over older games, but most are fixable. Just wish I could get UT3 working on it.
