    The Voucher Code Will Not Work

    The MM threshold used to be much lower and I was so near to it back in the day, years ago, but then it got raised to 1000 and I just gave up. :(

    Flight sim for older pc and younger kid

    Ever considered Kerbal Space Program? Almost a flight sim, good creative sandbox style game with a good educational/entertaining slant.

    Planet Coaster

    Can there not be z-fighting in that situation? You've placed two objects with exactly the same meshes over the top of each other perfectly aligned in the z-plane. How would the engine know what to render in that situation? When I get that happen to me, I ever so slightly raise or lower one of...

    Planet Coaster

    Its a traditional chain lift, I suspect all Woodies will always be, but this type of old fashioned coaster is pretty much just a drop into lots of bunny hops, a 180 degree turn, lots more bunny hops, 180 degree turn, lots of bunny hops etc. etc. until you have no more momentum. Quite like this...

    Planet Coaster

    You could always try a traditional 'There-and-Back-Again' style Woodie. You get lots of air time and not much fear/nausea due to low speed cornering and not much of it; mostly bunny hops.

    Planet Coaster

    I've spent the last handful of hours getting to grips with the scenery building and ended up with these. The freedom in this game is amazing. :D

    ** QPAD IS BACK **

    I've had mine for years now and I have loved every minute of it. Easy to maintain and clean too. :D I would recommend the heck out of it.

    Storylines

    I know its old and not on PC but Red Dead Redemption had a tremendous storyline to it.

    Create a small mod?

    Kerbal Space Program may be something to look at. You can model parts in a 3D Modelling Program (i.e. Blender or 3DSMax), can script small plugins using even pre-existing plugins like Module Manager or can learn C# and get into decompiling the game's assembly to create extensive plugins.

    *** PC Gaming - Daily Deals Thread ***

    It is a great game, it is more of a story than anything. A good time sink for an evenings playthrough.

    ******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

    I have completely shut off from SC for months, probably been about 9 months (used to watch and read everything they released) and just seen the new module presentations. I am very impressed. If you take them for what they are, being barebones building grounds for MMO "areas" then they look very...

    turn based games suggestions?

    Depends how much you intend to play each day. A couple of hours each day and it'd be fine. A full days playing and you'd be pushing to get more than 1 day out of it as it is in it's current state. I also recommend X:Com Long War, great game mod and The Banner Sage if you're looking for...

    Darkest Dungeon is superb.

    Kerbal Space Program

    Sorry, yes, I assumed it was Win64 being talked about. I concur that the Linux build is damn solid, I run it through Ubuntu no trouble.

    Kerbal Space Program

    Yeah don't even bother with 64bit KSP.

    Kerbal Space Program

    Inclination changes are most effective at Apoapsis and the higher the less dV is required. You just have to take into consideration how much dV it is going to take to get as close to the edge of the SoI as possible will take.

    Kerbal Space Program

    The trick is to accept the altitude contracts early on and only go over the specified altitudes by small amounts... say 1km. This allows you to accept and complete the 4 or 5 or so altitude contracts which are very easy and give a fair bit of cash in return. However, if you go straight to...

    Kerbal Space Program

    Rendezvousing is probably one of the most useful skills to learn to progress further in the game and its actually quite easy. Just circularize the orbit of target craft and do the same with the craft you want to take to it at the same altitudes and match your target's inclination. If you are...

    Kerbal Space Program

    Was just playing around with my modded KSP putting a set 90° phased power relays into space with a heavy Fusion reactor transmitter up there too all at 500km. Was making an ascent burn and forgot just how breathtaking this game can be some times. *Click for hi-res*
