I skip all the way to episode 2, though i play finish Half Life 2 few years ago using my desktop (graphic card melted)..The good old days of hardcore gaming..and it will never end there..LOL!
Welcome to the 2nd episode of Half Life 2
I don't know what the heck happen in episode 1 but i will play that someday before actually continue playing episode 2..
..but i do remember that gravity gun belongs to me <_<
I played through it's few early stages and the most kick ass moment is the attack of the ant lions..WooT~!
And the story continues..
PROBLEM : unable to start the game at all because our chipset doesn't support the game
SOLUTION : search and download 'swiftshader 2.0' software. After that copy both 'd3d8.dll' & 'd3d9.dll' to your game folder/bin.
Don't run the game just yet cause you might lag like hell because of the animated background in the main menu.
Right Click Half Life 2 Episode 2 shortcut icon and click properties.
copy & paste this next to your game directory name in the target box
-console -dxlevel 81 +mat_forcehardwaresync 0 +mat_bumpmap 0 +mat_specular 0 +mat_picmip 2
So it will look somthing like this
example : "D:\Half-Life 2 Episode Two\half-life 2 episode two\hl2.exe" -steam -game ep2 -console -dxlevel 81 +autoexec.cfg +mat_forcehardwaresync 0 +mat_bumpmap 0 +mat_specular 0 +mat_picmip 2
Now you are able to launch the game. In the main menu, make sure you tweak down the graphic setting so you'll get a better FPS rate..
I think this method is appliable to Half Life 2 & Half Life 2 episode 1 too
Leave and Discuss in the comments if you have any question or better solution
The Fall
Sad to announce to all 945GM user that during the testing of Halo 2 using swiftshader, Halo 2 is in unplayable stage...The FPS(frame per second) is way below 5...
The Hope
Halo 2 is workable in window XP, you can play the game without window Vista.
This guide is based on my testing:-
1) When you first autorun halo 2, you'll receive an error msg
"The procedure entry point CreateProcessWithTokenW could not be located in the dynamic link library ADVAPI32.dll"
2) Download Halo2Helper v1.2.1b here
-Unzip the folder to the desktop and in the folder, double click on the "setup.bat"
3) The Halo 2 setup interface will then pop up, choose "Customize Game Install" option.
4) Choose "Full Install, Do Not Start" option. While the directory destination is up to you but i suggest using the default.
5) Once the installation is done, Explore into your Halo 2 disc and find the folder labeled "redists" and install the XLiveRedist1.0.6027.msi and vcredist.msi files.
-vcredit.msi will install automatically even if it doesn't look like there's anything.
-I choose repair during the XLiveRedist setup and then restart comp
6) Download Halo2XP Updater v2.0 here
-Double click on the setup and install to your halo 2 game directory
7) A shortcut will appear on the desktop, Double click it then Enjoy Halo 2 in XP!
8) Download Halo2 Uninstaller v0.9b here
-Halo2Uninstaller.reg to clean all the registry string of the game
-Halo2Uninstaller.bat to clean all the game leads from your system
-Halo2Saves.bat is use to save your progress in the game
Thanks to RoboMASTER for all the Halo2 files and Perfect Sin's Guide on how to install Halo2 in Window XP
F.E.A.R. goes online in this F.E.A.R. COMBAT title
It's free to download and play even if you didn't own the original title
Like most FPS multiplayer games, there are Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Last Man Standing, Conquer all and Control. You might be thinking, hey, since single player has slowmo, do multiplayer get the same mechanism too?
Well, You bet it did, There are some modes which has that slowmo mechanism in Slowmo Deathmatch, Slowmo Team Deathmatch and Slowmo Capture the Flag.
So how does it work?
Only one player is available to carry the reflex power-up, which when fully charged can press the CTRL key to give the player and his team a speed advantage over the opposing team. You won't go invincible since you'll be an easy target once your holding the power-up as you will be easily detected by everyone in the match.
The mind blowing effect is still noticeable in the multiplayer and i got to tell you, It's way more intense and crazy then you have ever felt in Single player @_@
Some screenshot i took during the bad ass time XD
That's mean this title is playable and so does F.E.A.R. and F.E.A.R. Extraction Point

So Gear up and Lock n Load Soldier! It's time for showdown +_+
PCSX2 EMULATOR..FAILED

OPENING OF MY NEW BLOG
I'm going to open another new blog which is about online games and my story during playing so wait around for any updates about it.
UPGRADED 1GB RAM
I went to PC fair this afternoon and bought myself a decent 1GB of DDR2 ram ( I didn't go for 2GB cause I'm bankrupt -_-)
Got home and installed the ram into my sweet laptop xD
I got to say...Its perfect! the difference with more ram can easily be noticeable instantly
Everything in 2x Boost ;)
Any user who's still using 1GB ram below, I suggest you upgrade it now to unleash the power within 0.-
