<div class="IPBDescription">I'm really sorry.</div> Alright. My hard drive died. I cant even slave it and retrieve some of my files. that means that all the Red Faction models i did are lost. That also means that my half life 2 mod's models are gone as well.

Basshh..I was wondering if you still have the models I sent you?

Phyco and Chrono: Do you still have my hl2 models I sent to you for sexy renderizations?

    Sorry man, Thats a downright down to Earth bummer.
    Are you going to try and make them again, or are you done with them.

    And don't be sorry, just blame your computer. Find a good mallet and smash something.

    a computer doesnt work without a user, if the computer crashes, its the users fault... just a reminder.

    Wow. Not only is that uncalled for, but false too. If, for example, the power goes off as you shut down, and the registry isn't fully written to disk (as happened to me), how is that user's fault? Are they stupid for not recognizing the fact that 10 seconds in the future the power would die and their registry corrupted? Since I'm fairly sure most of us don't have precognition, there's no way to predict various problems and prevent them.

    Anyways funbags, that sucks crap. If the actual motor died or something you might still be able to get data off, but it'll cost a small fortune.

    Well thats a loada **** make no mistake - you can't blame him for his hardrive melting it can happen. Lost mine when the transformer for our house got burnt to a crisp by lightning and it surged lol.

    -> Advice, backup your most important files then you wont loose'em, and never play during lightnign storms, even if its far away.

    Dont do anything very important during electical problems, that way you can be sure not to loose anything.

    And do run adaware programs and anti virus programs, and discfrag now and then to make sure your computer runs properly.


    Thats the way to be jesus <-

    wheter it does or not is not up to you to decide, leave the admin work to the admins, I think they would prefer it that way aswell.

    Nottingham: Its the users fault because he doesnt buy another HD, and if it crashes then, its his fault, right? Even if he cant afford another one.

    If thats a problem, then perhaps he shouldnt do important stuff on it, aye? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    i hate to get this offtopic, but if mephmage continues to talk bollocks....

    What about a hardware error, its ez to get a hard drive that dies on you for no other reason than the product was faulty...that definately isn't the users fault, its most likely what has happened to funbags here too.

    If by the user's fault you also mean using Windows, then yes i suppose u are correct.

    I don't know if u posted that rubbish just to get people to flame you, but i'm sure u realised that this would happen.

    You could try some of the internet recovery guys...if its not a hardware error...meh...u could try doing an format to get the lost information back...as long as u'r hard drive didn't go mad and completely do an autoclave style wipe...

    Wow this guy seems to just want to start things, holy crap. Comes into a topic that is just requesting help and starts stuff. But yeah that sucks Sixsixone, was looking forward to the RF pack.

    Actually, you should contact someone with a bit MS-Dos knowlage, or if you can yourself, that way you can recover ANYTHING that's been deleted or corrupted.

    Thats what makes Microsoft such a wonderful OP.


    I just guess you're using Windows, but well.

    Thats the only idea I have.



    And you guys who flame at me for writing about the users fault, stop it.
    It wasnt pointed at FunBags, so.. Whats the husch, and I am partly correct, so instead of flaming me, correct me, in a polite way.

    Thats how the forums work best, not by flaming.

    you're right you indirectly said it to him. We know you were trying to point out that it was his fault, just come off it already. Even if you werent trying, you did, and it wasnt necessary.
  • ChronoChrono Local flyboy Join Date: 2003-08-05 Member: 18989Members
    and people ask why i "pick" on mephmage...

    how about instead of telling the guy its his fault that he lost the HD you try and help him fix his problem but you cant do that because you wouldnt have any of the files since he never sent them to you so basicly this thread has nothing to do with you so just leave

    hey i had to buy a new mobo and stick of ram recently, cause our house randomly lost power, and it fried my mobo. (the ram turned out to be ok so now i have 1gig)
    i was in the kitchen and our power just dropped, i had no way of knowing it was gonna happen. it can be frustrating, and expessive.

    i also went out and got a new powerboard, a surge protected one, the one i was using was supposed to be surge protected, but clearly it wasnt :\

    anyway i dont blame u for not backing it up, i dont back anything =D

    hopefully the advices you get will help you Funbags, because it aint alot of'em, just guys flaming me for being honest, shame to ruin someones thread like that, just help him instead of bringing up crappy stuff.

    No fingers pointed, but some of you need to grow up and start acting mature.


    I just asked my computer geek friend about ur prob, he said he knew a couple of guys who deal with this, he was to contact them, ill reply here whenever i have something to aid u with.

    He's an mac user, so he doesnt know much about windows, except for the basic stuff <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Meph, I did NOTHING to my hard drive. Its physically broken. It doesnt even read on start up so you can just go um....die or something. I've really had enough of your "No offense but your a douche" attitude. Seriously, why dont you just go delete your account? Your models and concepts are third rate, and I'd much rather have Sid spitting out his concepts as much as you do. His are pro.



    I just got my Uzi back too for the hl2 mod..w00t. Thanks chrono, even if you did blackmail me.

    So please calm down and accept my apology if thats required.


    But if you dont want help, then thats your choice.
