CE dividends for HPC users
Wow. Vram has posted a note on the Gearbox forums - grab a pair of dll files from the Halo CE distribution and replace the corresponding files in the Halo PC distribution... and the 'Crash on Map Change' bug will disappear. (This will NOT let you play Halo CE maps in Halo PC - it simply removes one of the more annoying bugs in HPC.) As always, back up your files before replacing anything, in case it doesn't work for you. Thanks to TURBO, on the #hbo irc channel, for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 17:10:00 UTC) (permalink)
A new movie about... warthog jumping?
Gustav Larimore writes that he's released a new movie on Effervescing Blue Productions. It's called EBP Warthog Jumping - and that's just what you get. 4 minutes of it, in fact. All on Silent Cartographer, all in the same stretch of beach. (Different viewpoints, though.) WMP9 format, 40 mb. The beginning gave me flashbacks to early 2002. (Louis Wu 15:56:49 UTC) (permalink)

CTF3 - bandwidth issues
We got word last night that the [-GTC-] CTF3 Downloads page was inaccessible due to bandwidth overages; it's up and running now, but the likelihood is, it'll go down again today. Because of that, we've mirrored the page here (minus a java applet and a very large animated gif) - if you can't get to the original, at least you'll be able to get to the mirrors! (They gained another mirror yesterday; there are now 4 sources for the QuickTime version, and 3 for the DivX version. The original news post can be found here.) (Louis Wu 09:01:10 UTC) (permalink)
