    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Noticed those yesterday m8. They are still beta though, aren't they? Only had one BSOD is literally yonks - the first day CoH2 was installed. But as that's been patched already and I've had a reformat since, everything has been fine. D.

    [PC] - Company of Heroes 2

    Reformatted my PC on Friday night, only to realise that Steam doesn't record your campaign progress - doh! Such an epic feature of Steam when games support it - I wish more did. Trying to get a co-op game going with two of my mates. I'll be honest so far - it's NOT as good as the original...

    Clio V6 Front End Restoration

    Excellent pics gally. Just shows you what's really involved when you get a decent repair done. The only criticism I can make is that you're too far north. The bodyshop I used to use has now closed - so when are you selfish sods moving down south? ;) ​D.

    Elite sequel - Elite : Dangerous

    Re: Elite sequel Looks like they've come a long way with this. Chatting to Cookie yesterday and he forwarded the link below.... http://elite.frontier.co.uk/ Potentially a life-destroyer, this. I remember so many conversations in the school-yard about games of Elite. I never knew anyone who...

    Back To 16's

    I misread the thread initially, and thought you'd switched to putting those 15"s on! Thank go it was the other way around - lol! I actually preferred the ride in the 182 when I borrowed a 15" set of Speedlines - so much so that I was really tempted to swap full time. That said, they had track...

    new to clipsport with a 172 cup

    Flaps look good - just not in the 'look at me blue' :) Always dismays me when having spent hours cleaning the BG182 - the worst paint damage is always around the section behind the front wheels. I applaud manufacturers that fit little protectors to the cills and rear edge of the wheel arch...

    [PC] - Company of Heroes 2

    Have they improved the targeting at all on that game, m8? That was the thing that turned me away from it. Higher percentage accuracy for enemies behind cover than those stood out in the open and closer to you? :S Seems flawed, but still a good game. ​D.

    [PC] - Company of Heroes 2

    It's mainly due to two factors. First is the scaling of the game - any one soldier on those screenies I've posted can be zoomed into - to a point where you can see individual items on his uniform. The other 'system killer' is the real world calculation of line-of-sight for each and every unit...

    Lol. My m8's wife noticed that the BIOS POST screen was different and asked him if he'd upgraded the PC without her knowing? Ouch..... D.

    So it turns out i'm not a fan of the Polo GTI...

    Interesting and brave decision (for here on CS) to switch from a GTi to an Astra. I've actually quite liked that shape of Astra - unique, but quite subtle too. It's a shame that you couldn't get the Turbo version - but as you say, it's a cost saving exercise too. Looks well on the Omegas. :) D.

    [PC] - Company of Heroes 2

    An hour in - so far, so good! Looking forward to playing the campaign all the way through :) Needs Scone's PC to get the absolute 110% best out of it though. Very graphically demanding. Carl - I suspect you'd have to make a fair compromise to get the game running smoothly on that Mac. There's...

    [PC] - Company of Heroes 2

    I wouldn't want to try it tbh. It requires Win7 minimum (won't run on WinXP) and is pretty heavy on PC hardware as it is. To get it to run on a Mac that use notoriously average graphics cards in the first place - means you'll probably be on a loser to begin with. :( ​D.

    Yep - the original release was fairly buggy. Hopefully Relic have learnt from that? :) D.

    Misty headlights

    Yep, the 3M kit is the way to go. To do them properly you really need a good couple of hours. To be fair, I could do with doing them again, but I might tie that in with removing the front bumper next time. I'd imagine that you'd be able to do a much better job with the headlight units actually...

    MarkCup's Fiesta ST

    Loved the Fiesta ST that they had on the Ford stand at Oulton. Interiors mean faff-all to me, but even I had to appreciate the effort with the seats. They appear to be getting rave reviews too. So nice to see Ford pushing a worthwhile Fiesta out again, now. :) ​D.

    Titanfall

    Very good point. However, if they manage to balance the vehicles/mechs with opportunities for the standard grunt to inflict serious or even fatal damage on them, then that should even things out. They must also have an ammo count or overheat function if mainly armed with energy weapons. Again...

    Titanfall

    I hope they charge for this though - not give it away free and then have you pay for your own uniform, canteen, mag pouch, gun, name or pink hat. I agree with Munson to an extent. I only ever buy the COD titles for the SP campaign mode. When done right, there are some great set pieces and an...

    IT Experts - Help needed!

    Technically (though unlikely) it could fry one or more of the wires in the structured cabling. Don't forget, the wires are really quite thin and would have made a perfect transport medium for lightening to travel through, if accessible to the storm itself. If you're running 10/100 speeds over...

    PC High Resolution Screenshots

    I think you've hit the nail on the head there, m8. If you look at it as an ongoing concern over multiple years, it doesn't batter the wallet much at all. People laugh that you're spending that much over circa 36 months anyway, but it's clearly horses for courses. I know people who can't abide to...
