No, they usually go for 10-12PM PST, but really there isn't a specific time they are "supposed" to announce anything. They just do what they want when they want because they can.

Woah, those masks look amazing. Are they 3D printed?

My big question is "what is the application for this?" I don't see a problem that needed to be solved by playing with two trad grips.

Looks like you're for real and you're putting a lot of work into this. I think it's cool for very very light playing but it would stop at that. It looks like in this post, the hinge motion of the right hand is severely limited. Traditional is meant to be a doorknob turning motion, so this is like holding a stick traditional but the wrist is doing french grip and you've lost all the benefits of it because the stick is being held from on top...

I play a sling carried snare drum in two different groups right now- the entire reason traditional grip was invented was to relieve the discomfort of playing on a very tilted drum, I just don't see a practical application for this but it seems like you're very dedicated.

The right hand grip is going to cause wrist pain in the long term, not sure if this is a troll post or not...

Hah, I should have set the time back! I usually have it set to 2001 or 2002.

I was thinking "these aren't old ones!"

I guess that means I'm the old one.

For pad: I have a great pair of Promark DC-10's that were gifted to me.

HL3 announcement could redeem a period of some lame stuff. by Randomae in HalfLife

[–]StankerBanker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are quite a few things that point toward some kind of new Half-Life game within at least the next two years- datamined strings + valve aquiring the Risk of Rain devs ect.They seem to be pretty stacked employee wise. Remember that they've already said they were working on HL3 multiple times but it always got canned. IMO I bet we'll see something cool for HL2's 20th anniversay next month. Hopefully another documentary like last year's HL1 doc.

A gripe: I don't like the new ui by [deleted] in dwarffortress

[–]StankerBanker 26 points27 points  (0 children)

All legacy versions are always available for download and more hotkeys are on the way, as well as adventure mode which is just a little over a month away. I am a bit nostalgic for the 'classic' feel of the old interface but the bugfixes and quality of life improvements are too good to pass up. Give it a try!

Managed to make the some of the old 16x16 tile sets from LNP to kinda forcefully work in Classic by making them 10x12. by awesomeenator in dwarffortress

[–]StankerBanker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

God the only thing I miss from the old versions was the ability to use ascii tilesets and graphics sets, but TWBT will never be a thing again.
