Try a block.  If it fails, then it's in the setup and not a map glitch.

Something I dont understand.  When you get an error, why does it usually say the word "FATAL" in it?  When I was younger (8 years old) using the Windows 95 package that came with those old sound blaster kits, I got those errors all the time, and it freaked my out.  Every time I got one, I manually shut down the computer, and when I switched it back on (yes, it was the old kind with a switch)  I prayed that the comp wouldnt blow up.

I wonder what motard decided to use the word FATAL when making the error messages?

Fatal meaning the program cannot continue.  A failure in code too big to ignore.

Yes, but FATAL seems too strong a word.  Perhaps if the program extended a virtual knife out of its .dat folder and began to tear holes in my desktop, leaving it to bleed out it's binary code, then that would be the right term to use for FATAL.


For those who cannot distinguish between reality and fiction (i know a guy who cant)  there is no VIRTUAL KNIFE that will extend from a folder and cut up ur desktop  :P

How do you like the blood effects?  I used the latest in technology from MS-Paint to accomplish such feats.  Any better, and the blood could have been pixel shaded  :P
