New maps for Padman

Submitted by ltmon on Thu, 19/03/2009 - 09:23

A few have cropped up:

Padbury’s Casino: http://padworld.myexp.de/index.php?news&update_id=165

“The map is pretty big, so there is enough space for duels between a dozen of pads. Like in a real casino, there is a pool table, a roulette game, a bar with stools and lots of other stuff.”

Phobos’ Shopping Center: http://padworld.myexp.de/index.php?news&update_id=163

“The theme of this map is a mall with many shops and stores like a travel agency, a book shop, a fast food restaurant and lot more. We’re sure there’s something for everybody.”

Harm’s WesternSet (Work-in-progress): http://padworld.myexp.de/index.php?news&update_id=166

“This B-Movie-Set is also filled up with many new mapmodels, which were created by DoomDragon especially for this map, e.g. a camera, a gravestone and a quite typical western revolver. It is a map for the CTL (Capture the Lolly) mode.”

Wonder if we can get these onto the GA servers? Can I become a Padman GameOp :)

Space Bat

“A bat that was clinging to space shuttle Discovery’s external fuel tank during the countdown to launch the STS-119 mission remained with the spacecraft as it cleared the tower, analysts at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center concluded.

Based on images and video, a wildlife expert who provides support to the center said the small creature was a free tail bat that likely had a broken left wing and some problem with its right shoulder or wrist. The animal likely perished quickly during Discovery’s climb into orbit.”

Aussie Flying Foxes dont have this problem ;p

Somebody during the post docking media + teleconference asked about it, weather or not they had seen it in pictures taken of the tank after it had reached orbit.

The bat has not been seen since the shuttle cleared the tower.

A giant fossil sea monster found in the Arctic and known as “Predator X” had a bite that would make T-Rex look feeble, scientists said.

The 15-metre long Jurassic era marine reptile had a crushing 15 tonnes per square inch bite force, the Natural History Museum of Oslo University said of the new find on the Norwegian Arctic archipelago of Svalbard.

“With a skull that’s more than 3 metres long you’d expect the bite to be powerful but this is off the scale,” said Joern Hurum, an associate professor of vertebrate paleontology at the museum who led the international excavation in 2008.

“It’s much more powerful than T-Rex,” he said of the pliosaur reptile that would have been a top marine predator. Tyrannosaurus Rex was a top land carnivore among dinosaurs.

The scientists reconstructed the predator’s head and estimated the force by comparing it with the similarly-shaped jaws of alligators in a park in Florida.

Willow's wireless problem

Submitted by willow on Wed, 11/03/2009 - 20:03

Hey all,

Ive got a technical computer problem and was wondering if anybody could help me out.

Last year i had a desktop computer built for me. At the time they asked if i wanted the computer to be able to have wireless in which i said no because i was staying alone in a unit with cable connection.

Nine months later and now that ive moved into another place the computer there is on cable and i have no option but to work off the router.

Problem is my desktop does not have wireless to work off router.

Should i go back to the person who built my computer and ask if he could make it wireless or is there an easier way to do it and how much costs would i incur if im to buy stuff to make it wireless.

Im a uni student with a low budget so cheap, efficient way works for me. Additionally im not very techincal when it comes to IT terms so layman terms does it for me.

The specifications of the computer built for me is below (cut and paste btw):
