The game is so much more fun when these kinds of things drop every once in a while, as opposed to never. I actually feel like maybe playing for another hour another day.
Got Zuni boot and Inna pant at a day before in 2 runs. That was pretty lucky even though the rolls were pretty low end..

Hi guys, maybe I shouldn't be here, but I need some help. I want to play the original version of Transport Tycoon on my pc (Vista). I know the version should run on DOS but I can't install it, just downloaded it from this site:http://download.transporttycoon.net/ Does anyone know who I can get it to work, if at all? I'm a blank when it comes to computers, I'm glad the thing starts up each time when I hit the power button. __________________ /Thunder in the wind/No rain/Peace mourns its passing/"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." -Dr. Seuss

I loved that game way back when! You basically have two options for running it on a modern PC: DOS box, or using OpenTTD (based on Transport Tycoon Deluxe). I'm on my phone, but I'll look for links later if you have trouble finding them.

I appreciate anything you can help me with, I would really want to play the DOS version. The OpenTTD comes with the fixed bug of not being able to move airports around . __________________ /Thunder in the wind/No rain/Peace mourns its passing/"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." -Dr. Seuss

I like still play this off and on, and love the crap out of it. Your best bet is OpenTTD. They've taken deluxe, and updated it a ton. There's lots more stuff, the construction tools are better, and you can add a ton of different train sets, etc. Online play is a thing too. They're constantly working on the game too. It should have no problem running on Vista as they ended up re-coding the whole game in C++, along with all of the updates. openttd.org/en/download-stable

Here's a link to Dos Box (http://www.dosbox.com/). It's takes a good bit more setup than using something like OpenTTD, though the FAQ and other resources are helpful if you have the time. If you really want to have the original DOS experience, this is the way to go in my opinion. Once you get it up and running, you can play quite a lot of DOS games if you want to pick up something else again. I still get a kick out of Colonization, for instance.

Wow. I can't even imagine having the gold to attempt anything on that scale. I've got 1.7mil, and that's pretty much all from picking up gold in-game and selling items to vendors. __________________ "I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.

I used to pick up everything that is non white and sell it to vendors, and I would get roughly a mil per day doing that. I thought I was being efficient with my almost 300% gold find, then I realized this would take me roughly 200 days to get the IK chest piece. edit: Btw, what class do you play? If you are a barb, I can definitely pass you some gear. __________________ MOTL Fantasy NBA 2010 ChampionLife is hard; it's harder if you're stupid. John Wayne

So I finally got around to updating my Madden 13 rosters on my PS3. Problem is, I also updated the offline roster. How can I get the offline roster back to defualt?~MM __________________ I am MeddlingMage...YOUR Motl Survivor 11 Champion, 2007 Captain N award winner, 2010 Marlboro award winner, and 2011 Champion Tournament Pick'em MOTL NCAA Bracket Challenge winner!CM Punk "OMG Kevin Nash WTF, thought he was dead, LOL" New keeper of the Logout button

I'm starting to figure out what items are good and resellable, I'm going to start snap-buying more stuff after I seen some shoulders for 1M that I was debating over that got snatched up and relisted for 15M and sold shortly after. How often do you guys see two items that are EXACTLY the same drop? My friend says it never happened to him but it's happening to me 2-3 times a week, exact duplicate drops... the chances of an exact duplicate dropping (at the same time) would seem to super low so I'm thinking it must be some sort of glitch.

I noticed prices have dropped about 20% for non BiS legendary weapons, and I suspect people are just simply waiting for 1.05 to come out before they make a move. Past couple days have been very slow when it comes to flipping items on AH. Made about 50mil in 4 days, but also wasted 210 mil on an IK chest, and also helped a friend gear his Wiz.Btw, 1.05 looks very challenging, and I am really looking forward to farming it with a couple friends. It is also nice to finally not have to farm act 3 for 485869599392 times just for the higher drop rates. Anyway, if anyone needs help in D3, I'm always happy to help.  __________________ MOTL Fantasy NBA 2010 ChampionLife is hard; it's harder if you're stupid. John Wayne

Guess I'll quite for the day while I'm ahead.__________________ "I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each. I do not think they will sing to me." -T.S.

Logged in yesterday for the first real time in months (played a day or two when 1.04 came out), got to Paragon 7 on DH. Really liking DH again (was my third 60 after Monk and WD, mid Nether Tent. nerf). Feel like I am sufferring really poor DPS tho overall, sitting at 66k or so.I can post a link to my armory when I get home (not sure on the numbers for my bnet id and at work..) for gear suggestions. I'm also relatively poor right, not the best of luck farming. I am currently farming Act 3.

If you aren't too picky, I might have a 1.29k dps Windforce that you can have, assuming I have not sold it on the AH. edit: And 1.05 is out tomorrow. __________________ MOTL Fantasy NBA 2010 ChampionLife is hard; it's harder if you're stupid. John Wayne

They fixed Mempo in 1.05, and legendaries can have i63 rolls on random properties (non fixed) if the monster level is 63+. __________________ MOTL Fantasy NBA 2010 ChampionLife is hard; it's harder if you're stupid. John Wayne
