So have I...what is it and where can I get it? I have searched the forum, yet the ONLY reference I can find is in this post?
Can you give me a link please?
Anyways, the world not gonna end, I still owe lots of money to banks and stuff, and I am not lucky enough to see all my debts wiped out..EVER!
/me looks on the bright side, If I'm dead, at least I will be debt-free for the first time in 30 years!
Besides, I watched lots of Doctor Who episodes, and there was nothing on that about the brains at CERN destroying the planet...we all know that happens 5,000,000,000 years in the future when the Sun explodes.
As long as they NEVER attempt a remake of Casablanca (or Blade Runner ) then Hollywood is safe.
IF they ever dare to do that, I might just have to borrow a tactical nuke :hbomb:from Lakenheath and post it to the producers
OK...got the HARD part done...updated vBulletin and PHP, just MySQL to go now...hopefully THAT shouldn't be too much hassle (Except from my version to current version is a BIG jump )
Haven't had to call on my back ups YET, but making a fresh backup after every successful install
Got a BIG problem... tried updating my server stuff from earlier versions of the above stuff to the latest...and like a prat tried doing it all in one hit
Result: totally fscked-up database!
Luckily I was intelligent enough (just!) to do a full back-up BEFORE I started the upgrades, and then discovered that PhpMyAdmin doesn't like restoring a backup if its bigger than 2Mb...Mine weighed in at 22Mb!!
Got around that problem in the end by re-installing all the old stuff, and then using the Mysql command prompt to create the table and restore the data with the command ">mysql source mybackup.sql" which worked, but took bloody ages!
Question is, is there another way to get from PHP 4.x + MySQL 4.1.1 + vBulletin 3.5 to PHP 5.x + MySql 5.x + vB 3.7.2 EASILY???
Any help greatly appreciated..Thx!

As some of you _MAY_ have noticed, the forums (along with my server!) are all down at the moment...hopefully all will be back up and running soon (ish)
If anybody is a MySQL wizard/magician and wants to come and help me out, it might get done quicker..but until then, just bear with me for a while
[EDIT] 0203 04/09/2008 - After 13 hours solid of banging my head against a wall, the server (and forum!) is back up and running
In case anybody was wondering, it is easy to back up a database using PhpMyAdmin...just try restoring it with the bloody thing! My backup file was 22 Mb+, and the stoopid app will only allow up to 2Mb, even after setting the limits in php.ini to VERY high! In the end I had to go into the command prompt and install it all as a "source"...which took bloody ages! [/EDIT]
Post you belly button fluff!
Honestly, I think this idea has been played out now, and most of these threads have led to flame wars. What is it with you people? Are you all bored with the complete absence of anything resembling Summer?
One day, when you are all grown up, and you think about a family, you dont think about the cost...but when you get VERY old you realise just how much you spend in a lifetime ...because of WOMEN!
PS... Already been through a divorce, a VERY costly process...
She left me with no home, no money, and very little else!
(btw.._I_ divorced _HER_!)
FFB is crap in this game..I've got mine set to minimum "gain" in the settings, otherwise it is too strong to turn the bloody wheel, and when you hit something it rips your arms out of the sockets
From a personal perspective, I use Avast, my router firewall (and it IS a firewall, not just a NAT.. I have to actively block sites from EmmyLou so that she gets on with work instead of surfing the interwebs!! ) and Windoze Defender...all free, all work, and so far, virii and trojans and malware are things that OTHER people get...not me
Just a theory....maybe install an old copy of Win 98 in a VM?? Never tried it, and dont know if you could run a 32 bit OS inside a 64 bit VM, but may be worth a look...IIRC the original Red Alert was only 16 bit code (like AoE etc)
Make sure that you have ENABLED the settings in the control options screen..my G25 works a treat - apart from the clucth and shifter (Full Version...NOT demo!)
Also, its worth setting up a profile in the Logitech profiler for Euro Trucks...and have the G25 set to 900 rotation...believe me, its worth it, trucks handle very realistically (for reversing with trailer attached) that way!
Are you SURE (positive!) that:
a) She really IS a girl and not a 40 year old bricklayer from Barnsley.
b) She is not really as ugly as sin, with a flat chest, hairy armpits, and 30,087 different varieties of S.T.D.'s
c) She has not recently escaped from a Mental Institution where she was placed for chopping up young men she picked up in interweb chatroomz?
If so..good luck, just remember the perils of dating girls from teh interwebs!

Dont think you can blame him too much for that..it was based on Dungeon Siege..a really naff RPG, and worst of all, it had the ultimate kiss of death for a movie..."Directed by Uwe Boll"
