<div class="IPBDescription">Eek!</div> I'm not sure if this is actually possible, but if someone knows how, could they take a video of a full game of NS (or CO), and turn it into a screensaver with sounds and everything? My 56k disallows me to be able to play and HL mod online, and I miss NS alot. <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    A 56k can easily play NS.

    Not very well, but it's very playable.

    By the way, desktops aren't able to have sounds in them, as desktop images are...images.

    Well, everytime I try to get into a game, it says I can't connect.

    Also, I thought you could have sound in screensavers?

    Step 1: Find a recorded demo of an NS game or make your own. Search the forums for any tutorials or people who may be able to help you do this.

    Step 2: Convert it to a video file, making sure it outputs a file type compatible with step 3. Once again, search the forums for any tutorials or people who can help you convert a demo to a movie file.

    Step 3: Search on Google for any freeware or shareware programs that let you choose your own video file and play it as a screensaver. Searching Google for "video screensaver" returns <a href='http://www.softwaretrials.com/videoscreensaver/' target='_blank'>this as a first result</a>; my linking it is for example purposes only and should not be considered an endorsement by me or the NS team because I haven't ever downloaded or tried this program.
