Thanks Oleg...

I have been listening to the video with headphones....and I like the direction your taking, as is indicated by the sound(s) of the clip. The sound of the machine guns indicates a lot of weight and force (they sound deadly). I'm really curious to hear what it sounds like to get hit (damaged)...

Question: Will each hit make its own sound? Will a glass hit make a "glass sound" and will aluminum sound different then steel? Example...will a hit that penetrates an aluminum skin and then hits the armored back-plate make the appropriate sounds?

Thanks you very much

NP maybe is not the final solution, but it will do until we got the fusion under control. ;)
Now, I really hate Ati for the sole reason, whenever they come up with a new driver, it may increase fps for some games, but same time produces new problems, problems which have been thought to be already solved with the previous driver.
Nvidias are like V8 engines, loud, consume a lot, generate a lot of heat, but reliable.
Atis are like boosted up mini displacement engines, cheaper at the gas station, but the require a shitload of maintenance.
(and once you got it back from the garage, you'll have to deal with new issues...)
nv ftw.

I love the comparison, I just upgraded to a GTX 470 (after my ATI 4850 croaked), and it really reminds me of my '69 Chevelle SS396: It's noisy, runs hot, but goes like hell! I was amazed at the amount of hot air the thing blows out when running a game. (still not so much as the politicians this season)
