Hate to hijack, but what command did you type to show the stuff in your code archive?

Bonfire Night in the Matrix (A pretty accurate depiction, cept the bonfire is more impressive and it's not as cold )

Holy moly thats a sweet shot!

Was wondering if anyone out there with groovy artistic skills (or the ability to use the paintbrush tool on MS paint even) would be able to make a logo for our faction, Exemplar Triune.

Seems all the cool kids are doing it and it'd be nice to get in on the action. Don't really have any ideas as such, and only thing to note is that Exemplar Triune is a Tri-Org faction and roughly translated means 'The Example of Unity' so would be cool to incorporate that somewhere.

Anywho here's a link to our recruitment page (not that thats much use, but you never know) http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/..._id=36300025173

Thanks to anyone who can be bothered to give this a shot

Oooh nice!

Thanks everyone, these are pretty cool logo's. I'll have to have a chin-wag with the faction and see what the general consensus is

FOREWORD: Thought it was about time i finally gave in and posted my comic. I started this last year, round January/February due to the fact that i was looking for something creative to do and i was no good at writing stories and Fraps didn't seem to work on my computer so i couldn't make a movie, plus i my faction leader made comics that i rather enjoyed and wanted to do something similar.

So basically i had the idea to do a comic but no idea what to do it about, so like my faction leader i decided to do an origin story (seemed pretty straight forward) and basically used the silly RPish background i had in my details as a jumping off point. And that was about all i had, i basically started taking screenshots for this with no real story, no real ideas and certainly no dialogue, so if it's a bit all over the place you can see why (Basically i just nicked alot of scenes from The Matrix and put a Dulux slant on it, so it's not really much of a story, more a collection of scenes).

It should also be noted that i have Vista so some of the screens the faces look all shadowy and although i got Tsusai's fix around about Halloween, i'd basically finished taking the screens at the end of Feb so didn't want to go back and redo alot of them (also you may notice some shots get repeated more than once for pretty much the same reason...i hadn't shot enough for some scenes and i couldn't be bothered going back and re-creating it all how ever many months later).

And finally i should say, that while i started this a year ago, it in no way took me that long to do, you'll see it's a tad shoddy with bad grammer and spelling and nowhere near as cool as some of the stuff i seen on here, just i got a short attention span and kept leaving it and coming back to it

Anyways, without any further rambling here it is, hope you enjoy and feel free to criticise...

*DISCLAIMER: If you like your Matrix stories, dark, serious and ultra realistic please look away now!*

Thank you for the replies so far guys

I added part two so lets see what you make of that.

Chapter 3 is up, and can you tell i'm running out of ideas yet?....lol

4th and final part is up, hope everyone enjoyed it   Although it's not perfect and did take ages to make (though that was entirely my own fault) it was alot of fun to make.

You never know, maybe i'll make another one some time.

(Also i'll just say here that the 4th part deviated alot from what it was gonna be. Was meant to have alot more faction stuff in there, but unfortunatly i left that particular faction while still in the process of taking the screenies (One of the reasons i added the last page) so that whole part might seem a little messier than is should.)

The Danielle Wright Players Presents Fiddler on The Roof

Okay, so i'm not the greatest Role Player in the world, or even do it all that regularly...but i have dabbled from time to time and can find it to be kinda fun. Problem is now with Camon C (Roleplay central) having become all but deserted recently, casual RPers and probably even die-hard RPers have  found it alot harder to get any  kind of events , stories etc. happening.

I know alot of factions do inter-faction RP like the Trust, Family Grigori, Merovech INC etc. and thats cool and groovy and all but leaves out alot of people who aren't in RP factions, new players who wanna RP and don't know where to begin as well as possibly hindering some of the stories (e.g wars between a group of zion's and machines, merv's helping out EPN or whatever).

So i'm asking if anyone is interested in putting together some sort of list or means of communication between people of diff orgs, factions, timezones who wanna get involved in some way, if even slightly with any kind of RP/RPVP as well as oppening up possibilities with storylines, casual events etc. (I know there is groups that create complicated well planned out events that pop up now and then, but it would be good to be able to throw something together one day and be doing it the next, or the same day. Some casual RP to give people something to do, rather than sitting around doing nothing).

Now i have no real experience with RP stories etc, apart from occasionaly participating in a bit here and there, but i did enjoy when Warriors Of Valor would have a faction storyline RP day and would invite people to particpate (one week i was an evil machine assassin, the next a bunch of us where merv operatives out to steal data from them resulting in a big pvp battle outside club sanguine) and even today, while thinking about writing this standing at an empty camon c and saying 'i wish something would happen here again', Tranque magically appeared and very cryptically said he was sure something would - cut to me suddenly getting a call from a 'ZionController' and spending the next hour or so trying to awaken a bluepill (which probably by an experienced RPer's standards could be considered the worst awakening ever (due in no part to the strange guy with no shirt on at the extraction site and the hoover-a-tron)).

The fact that i was there bored and Tranque put on a little event to amuse me, and hopefully him too, shows that people like participating in these kinda things still.

So to sum up, i don't literally want to bring everyone back to Camon C, but just create a means to get people interacting with others the way they used to, and some way of  letting everyone know who would all be up for this sort of thing, even if it's just to play exile number 3 for ten minutes, get killed and go back to datamining or whatever

So, opinions? Anyone think it's a rubbish idea? Know of a good way to implement such a thing? Like sandwiches?

(Let's hope someone at least posts a response...that would be embarrassing if this thread just died )

Well thanks for the replies, but i guess my title was somewhat confusing... Bring Back Camon C! (METAPHORICALLY SPEAKING) I wasn't literally meaning repopulate the benches of Camon C with people sitting around chatting casually with their greatest enemy about the politics of wireframe men and which was better Marathon or Snickers, i was just meaning that Camon C  kinda represents the heart of roleplay on Recursion, and by bringing it back, i meant trying to find a way to open it up more to everyone and all that malarky.

My apoligies for the misleading jibbirish (this is why i don't create RP events, can you imagine? )

But if you guys wanna sit at Camon or not thats cool, was just trying to get a discussion happening on how to get it going a bit more. Hope that clears that up, i confuse myself sometimes.

Am i the only one seeing a big white rectangle here? O.o

Heh-heh, nice ideas, especially the list one. Was the kinda thing i was getting at here  http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/..._id=36300026519 but i think my title confused people

100 merv rep

Never seemed this hard for my Machine (probably cause i was still levelling...curse my merv for not doing missions!)

As for the Overdrive Phrack, might be able to get you one of those depending on my frag situation, if not i think i know someone who has some.

Does anyone know of any high level hacker gloves, accuracy or damage? (heck i'll even take IS regen) cause i can't seem to find any except for the ninja gloves which are really really annoying to get.

Ty, shear, V and Alph in zat order

As for the Deccelerate Bit Tek, just ask around sometime when there is a few people on (the Trust farmed DW a wee while ago and got about 20 folk helping out lol) and i'm always up for it if i'm about.

As for my next request, what noise would a train make as it's leaving a subway station in word form? (For a comic i've been working on for almost a year lol)

:O

Exactly what it says on the tin! Thought it'd be nice to start a thread for day to day goings on in the Matrix so everyone can see what everyone else gets up to (Idea stolen slightly from Vector's pvp log...but don't tell)

So feel free to post screenies of any old thing going on, be it pvp/events/or even just a load of people hanging around together so we can see that there is more going on in the Matrix than just standing around Mara C all day

New Years Day: 01/01/09 - Farming Captain Raeder to get Vesuveus his SSR Glasses.

05/01/09 - Farming Sleepwalkers in Sati's with C1....and exivy showed up to help too!

Oooh didn't realize anything like that went on MatrixRefugee, tis pretty cool

And nice pics Rejex, i remember that Cyph party.

Here's some from today, in Sati's once again...

07/01/09 - Ajiing's Ninja Box-A-Rama!

Unfortunatly right at the end we discovered that, cause brixter had dropped the box to get the aggro, and then had to log, we couldn't get into that pesky safe...

Not even our Ancient Safe Opening Dance seemed to do the trick

09/01/09 - Some fun Merv vs. Zion PVP at Mara (Although hard to tell from this pic as i seem to be...coding...hmm how odd )

11/01/09 - Some EPN bathrobe event in Sati's...

And score me for killing the level 100 with a logic cannon to the head!

And some shameless mugging after it's over

(Please note that Zippy did not feel the least bit bad about joining in for the pictures, even though he didn't help in the slightest )

15/01/09 - People in Mara!!! (Unfortunatly was due to Olblaid/Crimin/Doleo Leaving and giving away his stuff )

19/01/09 - Farming Kernels for Stealth and Rip (Took us a while, but we finally got em one each.

22/01/09 - PVP at Mara C, good bunch of machines and zions taking on two merv's (who seemed to be holding their own ) Was good fun, and nice to see some Machines returning to the place.

As you can tell from this screenshot, i faired particularly well

Things happen, i evens made a thread about it http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/..._id=36300027189

Of course, begs the question...if i'm not there, do things still happen? >.>

 This is a thread to say your opinions on the Present players, and who is the best rper as the title says.

Just post the name and faction of who you think the best are.

Thanks

In what sense? Commitment to Character? Story Arcs? Personality? Spelling?

Haven't had the most experience with all the rp's, but Tranque seems to be pretty darn commited to character and if Zippy is still around, he was always a good laugh from what i saw.
