Hey again
It's been a long time since I've been here... I've been off the old Carmageddon since the last computer capable of playing it moved out of my room 2-3 years ago, but recently my PowerBook went in for some minor slot repairs and I started up the old iMac, which happens to have both Carmageddon 1 and 2 on it. 2 is screwed up right now, probably because of something I did, but 1 is fun.
Looking around, it seems like we've lost some people as well as gained quite a few (such as this Killswitch fellow that's running Crashocalypse now). Anyways, hopefully I'll stay hooked on C1 and C2 after my new computer comes back, if not, it's been interesting to see what's been going on since I last came around.

Re: Hey again
I did a search, and it seems that the last post I made here was in December of 2002 in Raven-X's thread about his new mid 90s red Civic (I'm surprised I even remember that, the pic is broken now, of course)... and yep, there it is, I'm a bitch-ass still back then.
I left because after I got a new computer, it was after Apple decided to not have any of their new computers be able to boot into OS 9, the only OS either of the Carmageddon's can run in. The Carma-capable iMac went into my dad's room, and with these most incredible gains allowed by the new computer in newer games, I eventually stopped bothering with Carmageddon, as it was a hassle to go and reboot the old Mac out of the new OS into the old one for a play when I could just do something cooler looking like Unreal Tournament. That, and I was making enemies with just about everybody, so it was less pleasant to be here.
Hopefully the 1.5-some years since then have allowed the shit to dribble through the drain, both with respects to myself and any beef-o-reenos I created with people.
I won't really get back into the shindig until I get my PowerBook back; it's getting fixed because the slot for the wireless card is goofed up, and I need to go steal some wireless broadband (still on 56k after all of these years) so I can catch up on all of the new crap I'm behind on.
Hell, maybe I've learned enough photoshop in my hiatus to make some non-crappy skins. I still can't find a copy of that plutonium somethingorother skin I made for the C2 Don Dumpster thing. Has Errol still been gone?
And yeah [url=mailto:K@vera">K@vera[/url], I remember you. I think we talked on ICQ when you were first getting into skinning.

Re: Hey again
Ahoy fellow simian!
Not meaning to repeat everyone up here, but "It's been a while"
Heh.
So, considering you've found your old mac-install of carmageddon, might you happen to have some of the old user-cars from mac-carmageddon, or whatever it was called?

Re: Hey again
I know I don't have the one that was like a helmet-hot rod, but I forget what the other ones are, so perhaps I do. I know I have a lot of the splat pack track conversions that might not be out there anymore, like the racetrack and the dam track, possibly still the crazy-alien-islands one and the hell track, though I remember that the overhead map linking for the hell track was completely messed up..
