    Dual monitors

    If I am playing a game with my primary monitor is there a way to switch the mouse control to the background to control the secondary monitor without alt-tabbing out? What I am looking to do is to run my ITunes on my secondary monitor while I play a game in the primary, but I dont want to have...

    [suggestion] Buckler Improvements

    There are a couple of things that should be fixed about the buckler: -Players should get credit for buckler bumping, rather than counting it as a "falling damage" kill. -Projectile deflection needs to be fixed, it was a confusing for me the first time I picked it up. At first, because of the...

    [suggestion] rocket pod improvements

    The rocket pod is a lot of fun. In fact, it's taken the place of the chaingun in all of my loadouts because it is so fun to use. However, it is marred by a few seemingly small nuisances that make it less useful than it otherwise could be. I've heard a lot of people saying it should be made...

    [Question] Invo damage

    Can you destroy inventories after the generators are destroyed? When I was playing earlier, it seemed to me that inventories became invulnerable after I destroyed the generators, but I never really got a good look at the damage I was doing to confirm that. Also, how many mortars does an...

    Limited range of Henry motion?

    Will the T:V henries have a limited range of motion (ie. cant look straight up or straight down)? Because, looking at the pictures: There is no way in hell that any of the henries will be able to see their feet, much less shoot straight below them. If they can see straight below them, I'm...

    A question for you Tribes skinning gurus

    I am an engineer who does a lot of work with 3D modeling. The programs I frequently use (pro/e and solidworks) are great for engineering applications, but I'm looking for something more. It would be great if I was able to skin models I make in these programs, but I have no idea where to start...

    does anyone know how to use Pro-E?

    Does anyone know how to "split" lines (as its called in auto-cad, i dunno how to do it in Pro-E)? I've got a long curve, but I want to split it so I can use it for surface boundaries on smaller sections.

    recovering data from un-closed cd

    One of my friends made a backup cd of a bunch of papers he wanted to keep, but he told direct cd to keep it open for writing. Now whenever he puts in the cd it says the cd is blank. Scanning the disk with direct CD doesnt work, and using a data recovery program such as bad copy isnt working...

    Name that techno song

    Damn, I've been trying to find the name of this techno song for weeks now but no one knows it. You have no idea how hard it is to find the name of a song without lyrics. I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and hope one of you can pull it off. The only hint I can give you is that its played all...

    Strange WINXP problem

    Every so often when i ctrl-alt-delete to check what programs I have running in the background I will see that I have like 20-30 IEXPLORE.EXE files running at one time. Each one of these has a memory footprint of about 5k, so they add up and bring my computer to a crawl. What could possibly be...

    Stupid human tricks

    Tribes has always been funny as hell. Its a part of the reason why people keep coming back and why such a strange community has formed here at TW. So, what stupid, funny, or otherwise senseless stuff should be added to T:V to give it that same sense of humor? I always thought it would be...

    Armor Customization ideas

    Armor customizibility is an essential backbone of Tribes gameplay. For me, it is one of four major features in Tribes that first got/keeps me interested in Tribes. The choice it gave users between support/assault/defense/attacking classes was truly unique and different from any other game I...

    [T:V] Targetting Laser

    Everyone who plays Tribes is familiar with the targetting laser. Its good for Tribes style impromptu dance parties, burning people's retnas, and the occasional laser war. But other than that, it is one of the least usable weapons on the battlefield. The purpose behind the targetting laser...

    [T:V] Include a sweet practice mod (with pics and ideas) a little long though :)

    As a newbie competitive tribes player there were two problems that always hindered my old tribe's attempts to hold regular organized practices. The first, and most annoying, problem that has always loomed over Tribes is the server issue. It was always very difficult to find a fast open server...

    [T:V] Floating Bases

    I think it would cool if floating bases were able to move very slowly towards each other as a map progressed. Like for example, at 20:00 they were 800m apart, at 10:00 they would be 700 m apart and near the end of a map theyd be like 600 m apart. I think that'd make for more interesting cap...

    [T:V] The "i want the vertical disc launcher back" thread

    That thing looked badass. I'm pretty sure that only ones who were complaining were the "T1 cavemen" who sit and play StonehengePUB all day long. So cmon, bring it back. New styling is fun :D
